PRIVATE CAR LINES
MUST LEAVE TEXAS

The Texas railroad commission has
issued an order which is a knockout
blow to private car lines operating in
Texas. The order requires that all re-
frigerating cars for the transportation
of fruits and vegetables must be fur
nished by the railroads and that the
icing of such shipments must be done
by the roads or the shippers. A maxi
mum schedule of icing charges for
shipments between points in Texas is
promulgated. These charges range
from 500 per car for a distance of 100
miles, up to $40 per car for a distance
of 400 miles.
Under this order of the commission
the refrigerating cars of Armour &
Co. and of the American Refrigerator
Transit company, which operate in
Texas, will be driven out of the state,
except in interstate business The for
mer company operates over the South.

SANTA FE PASS FRAUDS
UNDER INVESTIGATION

The ease with which a stenograph-
er managed to steal transportation
from the Santa Fe general offices in
Chicago and secure it from other
roads upon alleged request of Presi-
dent Ripley has caused good deal of
amazement in railroad circles. The
expose has resulted in almost all the
roads going over their method of head
ling transportation, with view CT
seeing if there are any leaks or if such
a leak as that disclosed on the Santa
Fe case would be possible. In most
cases it was stated the issuance of
transportation seems to have been
more closely guarded and more closely
checked than by the Santa Fe method.
Some of the roads do not request
blanks numbered, and every number
has TO be accounted for when issued.
1t is only in cases where no check is
kept upon the matter that theft of
transportation could occur.
In the Santa Fe's case the lack OF
checking came through the unbound
ed confidence that was reposed in the
stenographer. The Santa Fe officials
have not yet been able to ascertain
who made the money upon the trans
pOrtations. 1t is understood the Santa
ISe VII make good all losses to other
, railroads.

Concerning some recent criticism of
the Santa Fe which charged that the
company was receiving pay from the
Standard Oil company for oil which
passes through the Kansas pipe lines,
f. p Ripley, president of the railroad
company, has made the following
statement:
Il wish it were true that the Santa
Fe is getting, or could get anything out
of the oil that moves through the
Standard Oil cOmpany's pipe lines, but
unfortunately for us it is not true. The
road has not derived benefit of any
/ kind, direc- ~ indirect, from the ad-
vent of the StaI dard Oil company in
/ the Kansas field.
/ The statements made regarding the
/ Santa Fe, as well as the conclusions
/ drawn therefrom are abundanuy false,
except as to certain charges in weights
/ and rates, which were proper and
! justifiable and We're not made either
/ for the benefit of the Standard OIL

fact is that the Santa Fe company
