Special to the New Mexican.
Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, Oct. 49,
The holdings of the Enterprise Nation
al Bank in stocks and bonds of the
Santa Fe Central Railway and the
Pennsylvania Development Company
amounted to $750,OO0 and as the prop
erty is very valuable one and was
built very economically, it is believed
that these holdings are worth their
face value. The option of the Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway to
buy the Santa Fe Central, had expired
on Saturday of last week and this led
to the difficulties in which the bank
had become involved. There is no
ground for the political capital that

in general, and of Senator Boies Pen
rose, General Francis Torrance and
Senator w. H. Andrews in particular,
are trying to make out of the bank
failure in their campaigns In Pitts.

Ripley, when told that it was reported

the Santa Fe Central had been pro-
ductive of trouble in Pittsburg, said
I'VE thought of buying Andrews little
road some months ago but the owners
wanted too much for it. AS far as we
are concerned the matter is dropped.
I do not see how the Pittsburg bank
could be concerned in the matter un-
less 1t had been putting up money to
build the road, hoping to be able to sell
it at profit"
