or the two companies. An exhaustive
inquiry was instituted into the rela-
tons between them and the facts re-

said to have come from, the inner coun-

Whom the information was spread

report. Advices received last night
from New York. however, tended
strongly toward confirmation. Local
railroad men we've unable to throw light
upon the situation. At the eastern Of
fees of the companies the usual deni-
ais were made. but it was admitted that
the Pennsylvania had acquired large
blocks Of Santa F'e stock within the last
few months.
1T is known that the directors of
the Pennsylvania regard any announce
Eent at this time as premature as the
plans have not progressed sufficiently
to warrant a definite statement. There
IL every evidence. however, that the
Pennsylvania interests have taken over
the Hartman holdings in the Santa Fe
to the amount of $10,000,000 This was
sufficient to give the Hartman coterie
two members of the Santa Fe directo-
rate. The Penrs ylvania group row has
two members on the Santa Fe board
and, according to New York dispatches,

From New York came credence as
follows:
1.-The report of an alliance between
the Pennsylvania railroad and the
Atcfison, Toreka K Santa F'e is credl-
ted here by many banking houses that
make a speciality of such securities, but
no official confirmation could be OBJ
tanned from the chief parties in inter
est. In fact. local financial journals
have intimated that inipoI tdnt develop
mentS were impending that would tend
to establish closer relations between
the two properties. The exact nature
of this relationship has not been dis
closed.
''1t was pointed out at the time that
Thomas de Witt Culver of the Pennsyl-
Vania was elected to the Atchison board
that the foundation had been laid for
a close working agreement. Several in
cidents since then have strengthened
this belief. The Pennsylvania has ia
ken over large blocks of Santa Fe
shares at prices ranging in the vicinity
of 103. Several transactions of this
nature have been traced positively to
the Pennsylvania Offices.
ut is understood that the Pennsyl-
vania will soon claim another place
on the Santa Fe board. This would
indicate definite plan looking to even
tual control The Pennsylvania has
recently begun an elaborate advertis-
ing campaign on the Pacific coast. That
control of a through roue to San
Francisco would be desirable is admit
ted. That the only way to accomplish
this is through the Santa Fe is also
admitted"
