MAIL CONTRACTS INVOLVED

Chicago, Sept. 6.--When the Hill
lines announced few days ago that
they would lop ten hours on tho
fastest time between Chicago and
the North Pacific Coast points they
inaugurated speed war that has
spread over the entire transcontincn-
tai railway map. In the Southwest
territory, the fight is on for the mail
contract. The Santa Fe proposes to
cut ten hours off its time between
Kansas City and Los Angeles and
its rivals are scurrying In every d.
rection and ordering their experts
to get equipment In condition and be
ready to meet the time Of the Santa
Fe.
The fight started when the Hill
lines apparently sought to forestall
the 81. Paul road, which. with It's
Puget Sound extension, will soon bo
