HEDDEN'S RESIG-
nation RUMORED

Rumors were current yesterday
that j. F. Hedden, general passenger
agent Of the Tonopah and Goldheld
Railroad, had rendered his resigna-
ton to President Brock of the COM
pany.
Mr.. Holden has been out OF town
and only arrived back Thursday
night.
His attention, it is said, was
promptly called to the denunciation
Of the acknowledgement OF the road
which appeared in a recent issue OF
The Bonanza.
lie was very much effected by The
accusation, SO 1t is reported. and I'M
mediately rendered his resignation
About the office yesterday was an
unnatural atmosphere, and # is said
Mr.. Hedden was much subdued
An effort was made % verify the
report, but the representative Of The
Bonanza who called upon Mr.. Brock
was promptly dismissed by that gem
tleman with the statement that he
did not care to talk with anyone
connected with The Bonanza after
the articles which had recently APP
peared In its columns.
The conditions existing in the local
office for sometime have been in
tolerable and acts Of d%iscouytesy
were being almost daily commented.
Perfectly proper and Legitimate
inquiries were met with absolute
Indifference and disregard and 1t
was impossible to derive any salts
faction whatever. While The
Bonanza had hoped that its de-
nouncement of the existing condition
would have as Statutory effect, il had
hardly expected that the beneficial
effect would so soon be manifest.
Efforts made in every direction to
substantiate the report has been
futile, although it is thought to be
strictly correct.
