PUEBLO Is THE GOAT.
Railroads Discriminate in Favor of
Denver-City Will Fight.

Pueblo, Colo, Feb. 19.-There will
be meeting of the transportation as
ISOLATION of Pueblo within a day or
two for the purpose of deciding upon
an attorney to conduct the legal fight
that the association contemplates In
the meantime the members of the as
ISOLATION, together with all of the peo-
pie of the city, who have been aroused
as never before to the injustice done
Pueblo by the railroads, will continue
using every effort possible to bring
about righting of present conditions.
The subject is still the most dis
cussed of any in Pueblo. About the
city this morning it was the prevailing
opinion that if all the people of Pueblo
united in the fight the railroads would
ultimately be forced to accede to
Pueblo's demands. It is realized that
it is not alone a fight of the trans
portation association nor of the ship
pers, but that the welfare of consum-
ers, of everybody in Pueblo, is involved,
and for this reason there is greater
unanimity of sentiment than there
ever has been in any fight in which the
city has engaged.
The railroads in their rates are dis
eliminating against this city in favor
of Denver.

TRIES TO KILL A NEGRO.
Policeman Attempts to Shoot Prisoner
After He Has Confessed.

Kansas CITY, Feb. 19.-Infuriated by
the confession of w. Jackson, a negro,
that he had criminally assaulted five
white girls ranging from to 8 years
of age, Alberr A. AXE the patrolman
who made the arrest, and an uncle of
one of the victims, attempted to shoot
the confessor ere. The negro was sit
ting in Captain Walter Whitsett's Of
fee at the central police station when
he made the confession. He had been
"sWeated" for hours, Patrolman AXE
assisting in the cross questioning. At
length the colored man began to name
over the girls that he had assaulted.
He named a niece of the patrolman's.
II won't wait for them to hang you:
I'll kill you now shouted AXE rising
from his chair and drawing his re-
volver.
Two policemen grasped AXE and
wrenched the gun from his hand.
jackson, shivering from fright, at
tempted to crawl under a table and
begged for mercy.
Feeling is irtense against the negro.
This is due partly to the fact that two
negroes were executed here recently
for an assault upon woman. He will
be given an Immediate trial. He says
he will plead guilty.

Time to Coast Will Be Cut
Three and One Half Hours.
TIME AGAIN.
New Records in Vogue BefOr g
Increase in Traffic.
Other Items of General Interest
in Railroad Circles.

One of the first results of the extern
sive betterments being pushed oy tne
Santa Fe which President Ripley mas
announced is to result finally in giving
the road a double track between Chi
caeo and the Pacific coast, is to come
on sunday. when the time of the Cali
fornia Limited. running between Chi
cago and Los Angeles, is to be cut dowa
NV three and one-half hours, making
the total running time between the two
cities 6S1A hours. The train leaves en-
cago at o. m. and arrives now in Los
Angeles at 6 D. m. The new schedule
will Mace the train at its destination at
2:30 p. m.
Though this decrease in time is prac-
ticalIy only putting the schedules BACK
on a level at which they were several
years ago, it is interesting as an lnolca-
ton of the fact that the road IS eaten
ing up with the volume OF trarnc
handled.
Two or three years ago time equal TO
that which will be made after SUNDAY
was in effect, but about that time the
congestion of freight on the roads 10
the west became. so great that 1t was
found necessary to add several. hours
to the running time of passenger trains.
Since then the Santa Fe has peen
double tracking and building sldlngs,
so that now it has reached the stage
where with the immensely increased
traffic it is able to equal the time maze
under the old conditions.
With the completion of several cut
offs and additional tracks now belng
constructed it is expected that within
the course of a few months or a year
the road will make further reductions
in the schedules to the Pacific coast.
The program of construction DelnS
followed aims to add second track at the
most congested portions of the line
as they become felt. One of the most
Winslow and Seligman, Ariz., where
wnslow and Seligman, Ariz., where
there is a frequent meeting of both
freight and passenger trains
A cutoff is being built here which
will lessen the distance by about II
miles, but will be of more Importance
in giving a second track over which to
operate the frequent trains. This cut
will be completed it is expected, by
about September of this year.
BY June or July, it is thought, the
double tracking will be completed be-
tween Chicago and Kansas City, bridge
work and grading being already finish
ed, and only a short part of the add1-
tional track being lacking. There are
already stretches of two and three
track from Kansas City to Newton,
and from there the Belen cutoff gives
two routes as far as Albuquerque. Con-
struction such as that now being push
ed between Winslow and Seligman is
doubling the route west of Albuquerque
to the coast.

TRAINLoAD OF AUTOMOBILES.
Wabash Handles Valuable Freight on
Decatur Division.

Decatur Ill, Feb. 19.-One of the
highest class trains in the quality OF
the freight ever handled by the De-
catur division of the Wabash was han
died the other night from Chicago to
ST. Louis. The train was made up OF
% cars, all of them loaded with auto
mobiles. There were two autos in each
car at least, and in several cars there
were three autos. No one in the trans
portation department knows the value
of that train of freight. They do know
it was one of the most valuable trains
for the number of cars it contained
that was ever handled over the divi-
sion.

Fort Worth. Tex, Feb. 19.-While
the Santa Fe is constructing hundreds
of miles of new railroad in west Texas,
indications are not lacking that i'm
portant construction work is shortly

reduction of grades and the elimina-
