ernor Stubbs. SIS what was the road
actually worth them"
Mr.. Bailey replied that the actual
cost OF the road WAS matter impossi-
bic TO determine, as the books OF the
constituent roads Of the Santa Fe sy9-
TEN did not go back of 1887 and the

Stubs exclaimed;
y defy you to bring in Your grad
Ing contracts. ] shall buy you four
suits OF clothes if you don't show fig
ures far below that estimate, and
they'll be 800 suits, each of them,
too"
The commissioners directed the
Santa Fe attorney to file a statement
of the expense of building the New
Mexico line and also to furnish simi-
lar figures on the construction Of the
Phoenix and Eastern branch of the
road In Arizona.
