Tells of Local Gains

The Santa Fe," officially the Atchl-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe, was early into
lei Paso and has been one of the great
factors in the upbuilding of the city.
This road does not handle any trans
continental business through this city,
all it's business, with the exception OK
some through Mexican traffic, being for
local merchants or originating here.
Like all other roads with Ell Paso
terminals, the Santa Fee felt the inn

cedng year, as Is shown by the car re-
ports for the eleven months of 1909.
January to November, inclusive, az
compared with the same months of 1908.
All the car records of the road have
not been available, but the eleven months
OF the two years show loaded cars In

all cars handled, to be as follows:

fourteen loaded cars coming down the
main line of the Utah Copper railway,
from the Boston Consolidated Mining

empty steel cars, just above the Utah

The cars were piled up on each side
of the track, while the engine struck
the cement transformer building, caus-
ing il to crack half way around. The
cars were badly twisted and the tender
and parts of the engine smashed. But
for the engine striking the transformer
building the whole train would surely
have gone through the trestle and into
the gully, 100 feet below. Traffic was
delayed until o'clock this afternoon.
