According To a dispatch in the
Denver News of Wednesday. sent
from Holly. the Holly & Swink rail-
road has been sold to the Santa Fe.
and both Valley roads are now the
property Of the Santa Fe. The dis
patch says:
The Holly and Swink rail-
has been forced to sell to the
Santa Fe company because Of the
latter's purchase Of the Arkansas
Valley road last week. As these
two lines were to have paralleled
each other for distance Of forty
miles. commencing north Of Lamar.
and thence running to the Holbrook
country before separating. it can
readily be seen that with . powerful
railroed corporation controlling one
and having no rolling stock TO buy
that surrender was inevitable.
