Santa Fe has appointed to such an
important position for some time.
His connection with the Santa Fe
dates back to 1887, when he entered
the employ of the construction de-
partment. In 1890 he went to work
for c. NJ. Atwood. who was at tina
time auditor of passenger receipts. He
went to work for a short time in 1892
for the Kansas Car association with
headquarters at Salina, but only stayed
with this company a little less than a
year. His connection with the freight
auditing department of which he will
soon become the head, dates from
February II, 1898. He was at first
employed in the statistical department
of this office, but in May, 1893, he was
transferred to the claims department.
In 1901 he succeeded to the position
of assistant chief claims clerk, J. T.
Riggs at that time being chief clerk.
On July 1, 1904, he received the ap-
pointment as chief clerk of the claims
department where he is still working.
Mr.. Hayes will take charge of the
freight auditing department May 1,

end the warlike operations between
Nicaragua and her neighbors. IN which
Nicaragua has so far had great sue
cess, the United States has reached an
agreement with the president of Mexico
for that country to use its good offices
to bring the troubles to a close.
The step in this direction is most i'm
portant. 1t means that Mexico now
joins with this country IN the task of
maintaining peace and security on this
continent. 1t may with but little
stretch of the present understanding
mean that Mexico commits herself to
the maintenance of the Monroe doc
trine. This latter construction grows
out of the desire of the United States
to end the situation in Central Ameri-
ca so as to prevent foreign interven-
ton or foreign meddling in a quarrel
on this continent. Mexico was ready
to follow the suggestion of this coun-
try She was asked TO act, so as to
strengthen the United States with
neighboring countries and confirm our
oft-announced policy that the Monroe
doctrine and our acts under it is not
to be a cloak for territorial aggrandize-
ment on this continent.
