HOP[W[LL MAKES
SWEEPING DENIAL

w. S. Hopewell, of the Santa Re
Central railroad, has issued the fol
lowing statement In regard to the
sensational story printed in the Den.
yer Post recently dealing with the
financial status OF the road:
IN the Denver Post Of Thursday,
July %, there appeared an article
written in Albuquerque concerning
the Santa Fe Central railway, which
Is about as full of misstatements as
a good watermelon is full OF water.
The correspondent has distorted facts
in all particulars.
mot a share of stock of the COM
pany has YET been issued. 1t has
been subscribed and paid for, but not
a share has ever been placed on the
market, nor is there any on the mar
ket today. The stockholders are cap.
italists who are perfectly able to car
ry stock as long as they desire, or
until they sell out at proper terms
or make combinations with other rail-
roads.
AT this time, however, it is not the
object of the capitalists owning the
road to sell TO any road or to any
person. 1t is their intention to build
a New Mexico system of railroads for
their own benefit and to develop the
/, resources Of the state, for they be,
lieve that thereby good interest will
be paid them on their investment.
1.-THE assertion made by the cor
respondent that the employees of the
railroad had not been paid for four
months is in keeping with the rest
Of the assertions. The officials and
employees Of the road, from the high.
est to the lowest, have received their
pay UP to the first Of July, and viii
in a few days receive their pay for
July"
