KENNA NOT SURE
OF REELECTION
General Solicitor Of San
ia Fe Discusses Pros
pect Of Hartman Con-
troll.

In the course Of an interview in
the Topeka State Journal, General
Solicitor Kenna Of the Santa Fe, goes
into details on the coming election
of Santa Fe directors on Thursday
Of this week.
The subject of Hartman and Rock
efeller representation on the board Of
directors of the Santa Fe is a sub
ject which has been attracting no
little attention lately.
1t Is rumored that Hartman will
have two representatives on the board
himself and James Stillman and
that meeting which we'll be held in
General Manager Mudge's office in
this city next Thursday.
MsKenna was asked If he could YER
lily the rumor.
THAT is a matter of which | can
not speak authoritatively at this
time" he replied. 1T is possible that
such will be the case, but | am in
clined to think that there will be no
change of that nature"
The board of directors of the San
ia Fe is composed of fifteen members.
Each director is elected for a term
of four years. The terms of four OF
the directors expire this year, three
next year and four each of the two
succeeding years.
The directors whose terms expire
this year include Mr.. Kenna, Edward
j. Berwind of New York, Andrew c.
Jobes of Wichita, and r. Somers
Hayes of New York.
1t is considered extremely likely
that the retiring members viii be
reelected.
One feature must not be overlook
ed. The laws Of the state of Kan
sas require that three of the direc-
tors must be residents of this state.
Andrew C. Jobes. n of the retiring
directors, is a resident of Kansas,
and If it should develop that other
interests had secured enough stock
to secur representation On the board
the question of who would succeed
Mr.. Jobes naturally arises.
Should 1t develop that new inter.
ests could name three of the direc-
tors, and 1t was deemed advisable by
the present control to keep either
Mr.. Berwind. Mr.. Hays or Mr.. Ken
ma on the board, that it would be
necessary for Hartman interests to
name a Kansas man for the place
which would be vacated by Mr.. Jobes.
In such a contingency 1t would seem
that there would be but one choice,
N. H. LOOMS the general attorney Of
the Union Pacific. which Is n Of
the principal Hartman properties.
However. the matter OF a charge in
the directorate Is at this time a mat
ter of pure speculation. 1t will be re-
membered that at the annual meet.
ing of the stockholders held a year
ago it was rumored that the Rock
Island would step in and name all of
the four directors to succeed those
whose terms expired at that time.
But it turned out to be pure rot and
the old directors were reelected.
Such will very likely be the case this
year.
The board of directors includes: !
Edward ]. Berwind. New York; An.
drew C. Jobes, Wichita; Andrew
Somers Hayes, New York: Il. d. Ken
ma, Chicago; Those whose terms ex-
ire in 1905: B. P. Cheney, Boston /;

terms expire in 1905: Howell Jones,
