ahstIe - n well defined EHinur cir
etiating In railroad circles 20 the ef,
fect that e. d. Purdon. at present
chief engineer Of maintenance II way
Of the Frisco system with hesdauar.
tiers Al 81. Louis. will come to tie
Santa Fe and enter the engineering
department I'm some high official ca.
paclty In coanecssoa with the big
chanses that Win take place In that
department when James Dun. chief
engineer Of the system. resigns to be.
come consulting engineer Of the sys-
TEN.
Just what position Mr.. Purdon will
take Is not connected With the rumor.
Il H. expected. however. that he
will succeed W. n. Story. Jr.. ~ chief
engineer Ne. Storey's proMottd4 TO
succeed Mr.. Dun has been authorized
BY President Ripley. Mr.. Purdon was
connected with the Santa Fe engin-
eering department several years ago
In an official capacity Of considerable
importance. and Is q man Of long az
p~erience In railroad and civil engin.
eertng. When he left the Santa Re
for the Frisco a number Of years ago.
he was assistant chief engineer Of
the road at Topeka. under Mr.. Dun.
who was at that time chief engineer.
There are also some rnmors To the
effect that c. A. Morse. nov acting
chief engineer Of the coast lines. will
come To Topeka as chief engineer.
The position seems to be for either
Mr.. Purdon or Mr.. Morse. Mr.. Morse
was until a few months ago assistant
chief engineer to w. b Storey. Jr..
there. He went to the coast lines at
Los Angeles as acting chief engineer
while W. B. Burns. chief engineer
there. was off or a leave OF absence.
Mr.. Burns died recently and It was
thought that Mr.. Morse would be
made chief engineer. However. no
successor has been named to Mr..
Burns and this started the rumors
that Mr.. Morse would not be made
chief engineer at Los Angeles, but
would come to Topeka when the
changes were made In the engineer
ing department of the road In August
or September.
Mr.. Purdon's connection with the
Santa Fe road was valuable and his
rise while with that company was
rapid. In the course Of eight years
be o from the position Of a bridge
engineer. In which capacity he begar
with the road, to the position of as
sistant engineer of the Santa Fe linz
proper. with headquarters at Topeka
Two intermediate promotions were
received during those eight years
first to q division engineer. and thei
to principal assistant engineer. HI
came to the Santa Fe from the Louis
Vile & Nashville line In 1890, ant
for three years, until October. 1893, Il
October. 1895. he held the position O
resident engineer of the Chicago Ill
vision of the line and from that po
sition he was promoted to be princi
pal assistant engineer. He was lateI
appointed to the position OF assistant
chief engineer, He was principal as
: sistant engineer from. October, 1895
to January. 1897.
Mr.. Purdon' rapid promotions II
the railroad engineering world dat'
back as far as his youth. when HI
first began as an xma with the
Intercolonial Railway of Canada wher
he was twenty years OF age. His con
nection with the Tnter-colonial rail
way was especially promising. II
