OPERATORS SATISFIED.
Superintendent Gaunt Denies Report
Of CONTEMPLATED Strike.

The following dispatch WIS recently
sent out under Topeka date line:
The Order of Railway Telegraphers
which has been successful in gaining
concessions from number Of rail-
roads lately Is preparing to make an
effort to secure an understanding
again with the Santa Fe system. The
Santa Fe has been a non-union road az
since their strike in 1899 After the
strike General Manager Nudge said
that he would have no dealings with
the telegraphers' organization as long
as The officers then In charge were re-
tanned. Since then President Dolphin
OF the telegraphers' union has been SUI
perseded and the operators think they
now have a chance to present grew
ances."
When asked about this matter, SUI
perintendent c. II. Gaunt, of the Santa
Fe telegraph department said Il have
not heard of any negotiations between
the Santa FEE telegraphers and the OIL
Gals OF the road. Neither have heard
that there is any dissatisfaction among
the operators. II there was any move
ment of this sort going on. would
probably know something about IT,"
The Santa Fe telegraphers, so far as
known. are on good terms with the
officials. but the union has no standing,
says the Topeka State Journal There
are, however. a great many union men
employed by the road in The telegraph
department.
Some time ago the Santa Fe COM
menced taking back into its employ the
telegraphers who were frozen out at
the time OF the big strike. This policy
has been continued. and there are now
working for the Santa Fe n great many
men who quit when the strike oc-
cured
None of the leaders. however, have
been taken back, and it is learned from
reliable sources that none viii be-
They are on the blacklist so far as the
Santa Fe is concerned. II is Qaite nat
ural that the Santa Fe should not want
to harbor In its employ the men who
were responsible for so much expenss
and trouble few years ago.
II is, of course. possible that some Of
the old union employees who are hack
on the road are trying TO make trouble.
or there may be bona fide effort ON
the part Of some Of the union men tn
secure friendly understanding be-
tween the company and the union. but
Superintendent Gaunt denies that
! there is anything OF this sort on foot.

Republican. one of the first matters
which will be considered by Vice Presi-
dent and General Manager j. NJ. Her

pointment of Mr.. Dyer's successor The
resignation is not 10 be effective at
once. and II is understood he will not
retire until MIR. Herbert has become
thoroughly familiar with the workings
OF the Colorado & Southern road Mr.
Dyer is considering offers from the
Santa Fe and other railroads, but may
decide to retire permanently from the
railroad business. He formerly was
with the Santa Fe and is a very pop

President Trumbull is contemplating
a trip to New York city and may leave
before Mr.. Herbert's return. The re-
port of the resignation OF Mr.. Dyer has
caused much speculation as to who
will succeed him. #. w. Egan, general
superintendent of the Rio Grande, is
mentioned as the probable appointee.
This is purely a rumor and has no sub
stantial foundation so far as can be
learned.

DR.. J. V. Cowan was for many years
a resident OF Las Cruces, and his kind
ness and benevolence will never be
forgotten. He was Christian man
and good citizen, and made more
friends than most people. He was a
man of splendid vigor, and his sudden
taking away seemed shocking. but
he was ready.
Within the year nr. Cowan removed
with his wife to Alamogordo, whore he
had just bought a home and settled
comfortably.

CAN'T DE CONFIRMED.
Nevertheless the Santa Re is Said &c
Be Interested"

A dispatch from Phoenix says: Eff
forts here fail to confirm the rumor
that the Santa Fe is planning to ex.
tend from Silver City to Bisbee. thence
to Benson. to connect with the Phoenix
& Eastern, which reaches the main
lire of the Santa Fe over n subsidiary
road in northern Arizona.
F. NJ. Murphy, president of the two
roads which link Benson with the
Santa Fe at Ash Fork. Ariz., denies
any knowledge of the immediate pur-
pose of the Santa Fe officials but will
not deny the Santa FEES keen interest
in southern Arizona and northern Mex
leo and says the feasibility of the plan
outlined is unquestionable.

west OF the Mississippi river on No
vember 20. that the operation of the
dou5le-header trains on these roads be
abolished. The exact language of the
demand is that not to exceed thirty
cars be hauled with two engines. which
is equivalent to the adjustment OF the
practice, as that number of cars Is
easily hauled with a single engine An
exception is made o. the mountain di.

the roads are willing to treat literally
with the train men in their demand for

although the increase which they are
willing to agree to will probably not
exceed 10 per cent. This may he &C.

Statement Of Car and Engine Building
During 1902.

The record of the year in car and To-
connective building is nearly equal to
that of last year when all previous rec.
ords were surpassed The necessities
of the railroads are more clearly indi-
Gated by the orders which have been
placed for new equipment than by the
number of cars and locomotives actu.
ally built during the year. since the
latter figures are merely a statement
Of the capacity of the various building
concerns
The Railway Age has compiled from
its weekly records a statement show
ing that during the year 1902 orders
have been placed for the building of
$4,000 freight cars. 400 locomotives
and 2,700 passenger equipment cars of
the various classes, including baggage.
mail and express. The figures have
been corrected and additions made by
officials of the roads concerned and by
the manufacturers. A corresponding
record published by The Railway Age
on January 8. 1902. showed totals of
10000 freight cars, 1910 locomotives
and 2,S79 passenger cars.
