SANTA FEE L
Will Ignore Colonist Rate Until Cali.
fornia Rush Is Over.

Owings to its immense rush of Cali
fornia business the Santa Fe has Civ
en- notice that for the time. at least, it
will ignore the recent colonist rate an
nounced to California points by the
Southern Pacific. The rate is S33 from
Chicago to California, and strenuous
objections are being made to it by all
roads. Unless cancelled the rate will
go in on February 10, and be effective
until April l.
AT the meeting of the Transconti-
mental Passenger association to be
Aeld at San Antonio, on January 20,
an effort will be made to have the rate
cancelled.
1t appears that some of the connec-
tions of the Southern Pacific Joined
with it in its notice under protest and
while deeply impressed with the opin-
ion that the action vas foolish in the
extreme at this time.
Regular California travel is extreme
ly heavy at this time and il is certain
it will continue so all through t'ebru-
AIRY.
The fact is, the direct California
lines are taxed to the utmost to pro-
vide equipment enough to take care of
l. The trains are now running under
great disadvantage, owing to severity
of the weather and the shortness Of
coal supplies. There is a very large
movement of military to San Francis
co to be taken care of. Some 1000
troops are to be moved there shortly.
The price at which they will be car
ried will be regulated to some extent
by this new colonist rate. When this
same rate was in effect in October the
Pullman company was unable to fur
nish enough tourist cars to take care
OF It properly and there is likely to be
to an exaggerated extent a repetition
OF the conditions which then existed.

EXPRESS COMPANY MERGER.
WelIs-Fargo and Pacific Express Com
panies Nav Affiliate,

A dispatch says that either a merger
of the Wells-Fargo and Pacific express
companies or the closest kind of an al
lance between them is shown by ord
ers which have been received by
agents of BON companies all over the
country.
The Pacific express is controlled by
the Gould system. Until last Novem-
Der there was a close traffic alliance
between the Pacific and UnIued States
express companies. They worked with
each other against all other compa-
MES.
Now the Wells-Fargo and Pacific
companies have instructed their
agents not to give any other company
any business which can be handled by
either the Wells-Fargo or Pacific com
pany.
II is the belief of western attaches
of the Wells-Fargo company that its
absorption of the Pacific company will
soon be announced, and that the Gould
interest will appear in the directorate
of the Wells-Fargo company.
