MORE STORAGE TRACKS.
Santa Fe to Increase Its Facilities at
Houston, Tex.

Houston, Tex, Oct BIN response
to an increasing business and growing
traffic the Santa Fe announces its in
tention TO make material additions to
it's Houston facilities. which will give
it larger space to handle traffic.
In response to an inquiry General
Manager Nixon replied that it is the in
tention of the Santa Fe to construct
large storage tracks near the Houston
city limits and to move the turntable.
which is now located at the Santa Fe
freight yards near Congress avenue, to
a point near the projected storage
tracks. He stated, however. that the
Santa F'e does not contemplate at the
present time the construction of a
round-house or repair shops at or near
Houston.
During the past year ali kinds of
traffic entering Houston has been on
the increase until now the question of
handling has become a serious problem
The Central-East and West lines will
soon have its loading and unloading
facilities entirely divorced from the
Southern Pacific, with which road they
have been consolidated. By this move
the Southern Pacific will find at its
disposal larger facilities to meet larger
demands. The International & Great
Northern has under consideration the
enlargement of yard facilities. All in
all, these moves are but fitting recog-
milton of Houston's future as a rail-
road and commercial center.

ERROR OF A CLERK.
Almost Led to a Rate War on Omaha
Lines

Chicago, Oct. 3-President Stickney or
the Chicago Great Western railroad re-
Gently caused a stir among the officials
of the cago-Omaha roads. when it
was learned that his company had is
sued a new tariff on grain through
Omaha to the east. making the special
notation that the terminal transfer
charge at Omaha of 81 per car would
be absorbed by the company. This was
taken as an indication that Mr.. StIckney
deliberately had cut the rate IN order
to popuIaIize his new Omaha line with
the Omaha shippers. AS a result the
other roads threatened to make war
upon the Chicago Great Western.
The executive officers of the Chicago
Omaha lines met here yesterday after
noon. A rupture was averted by the ex~
PLANTATION of the representative of the
Chicago Great Western that the nota-
ton to absorb the 81. IS terminal charge
on grain al Omaha was put on the res
ular tariff by the rate clerk through
mistake. He said the arrangement his
company had for transferring grain
through elevators at Omaha practically
was the same as other roads. In order
to compete with other roads his company
was obliged to pay the elevator owners
for transferring the grain.
Since the opening of the Omaha line
the Chicago Great Western has been
favored by Omaha shippers. It's COM
petitors naturally are disgruntled, ana
if they discover that Mr.. Stickney's road
is using unfair means to secure the
business they may without further
proVocation, start a rate war.

AFFECTS EASTERN TERRITORY
Hill and Hartman Make an Often
sive and Defensive Alliance.

Chicago, Oct. 3.-The railroad inter-
ests represented by James J. Hill and
E. H. Hartman, consisting of the Bur
lington, Northern Pacific and Great
Northern on the one hand, and the I'm
ion Pacific, Central Pacific, Southern
Pacific, Oregon Short Line and Oregon
Railroad and Navigation company on
the other, are said to have extended into
an offensive and defensive alliance with
respect to the territory east of Chicago.
The evidence of this is to be found in
the election of E. H. Hartman to a
place on the board of the Erie railroad
in which he is now said to have sub
stantial interest.
The necessity for Hartman and Hill
being allied in the Erie is found in the
ama1gamatiOn of nearly all the main
trunk arteries east of Chicago, Pitts
burg and Buffalo. with the exception of
the Erie, into the Vanderbilt and Penn
sylvania groups of railroads. These two
interests, which have lately become in
terwoven by exchange of securities, are
now in position to dominate traffic af-
fairs in all territory east of Chicago and
st. Louis and north of the Ohio river.

Tunnel Caved In.

Austin, Tex. Oct 3.-The Inaugural
ton of the National railroad of Mexico
as a broad gauge line will be delayed a
few weeks on account of a disastrous
cavein, which has just occurred at the
Mercado tunnel situated south of Que
retaro. The recent heavy.rain softened
the earth to such an extent that the
inner walls of the tunnel collapsed, and
it will require another month of hard
work to remove the debris. It had been
expected that the work of completing
the new cutoff line and changing the
remainder of the road to broad gauge
would be completed by November L. 1t
will probably be December 1 before the
road is opened all the way through To
the City of Mexico.

New Santa Fe Official in the Place of
C. L. Short.

The Chanute Sun says: E. Raymond,
the new Santa Fe train master or rath-
er assistant superintendent the office
of the trainmaster having been abolish
ed with c. L. Shorts resignation, ar
rived from Argentine this afternoon
to assume his duties. Mr.. Raymond IS
an affable gentleman whose genial
manners are sure to gain him wide
favor among the trainmen of this di
vision. He is remarkably popular with
the eastern division crew. Mr.. Ray
mond is an old railroad man, being in
fact one Of the oldest in point of SER
vice on the entire Santa Fe system.
He entered the service in 1876 and has
occupied various official positions since
that time. He spent seven years at
Emporia where he had control of the
track department For many years he
was general roadmaster of the Chicago
division with headquarters in Chicago.
For the past few years he has been as
sistant to the superintendent on sew
eral of the larger divisions. The office
of train master on this division was
only created at the time of G. E. Shorts
promotion, all occupants prior to that
time enjoying the title of assistant
superintendent which Mr.. Raymond
has been given.
