TALK NOT CHEAP IN THIS CASE.

New York, May 17.-Just about a
year ago interests identified with the

nounced that a joint traffic and track
age arrangement had been made for
use of the Iron Mountains river line
from Memphis to New Orleans. Terms
stipulated that both roads concerned
We're to share equally in maintenance
and repair work. The arrangement
later fell through on account of the
Texas &, Pacific opposition. 1t is this
line which has been under water for
the past month anG the damage is esti-
mated at about 100000.
8 F. Yoakum chairman of the
Frisco. met B. F. Bush, president of

with the latter Yoakum laughingly re-
marked that he considered himself
lucky. when you get the present

''It will cost you $250,000 to talk"

Track Laying Machine Closing
Up Gap to Ensign.
Other Items of General Interest
I'm Traffic World.

Dodge City, Kan, May h-Track-
laying on the Colmar cutoff of the
Santa Fe has started in earnest. The
big tracklaying machine which has
the track contracts over the line, mas
arrived and, after being overhauled on
account of some damages received on
the trip. was put to work. Two nun
dred wards OF the main line had to
be laid in order to give the big ma
chine room to start. The machine WIZ
lay the track at the rate of mile
and a half a day and Ensign the
first of the new towns on the line VIII
be reached by May %. The first train
to Ensign will be run on that date
and will take material for the railroad
wells and depot at that place Wlthin
a few days thereafter the depot VIII
be in operation and the Santa re 90
ing business at that point. the Dullu
ing is now made into sections ana
stored on fatcars in the yards at this
place.
After May 2S the work trains on the
new line will carry accommodation
coaches for passengers to the new
town. A couple of days will be con-
sumed laying the yards at the new
place and then the big track layer
will start out over the grade for Mon

stringing the steel along the new high
way at its usual rapid rate. The only
thing that can delay the work beln6
continued at this rate is the failure Oh
the part Of the bridge gangs along
the line to complete their work in time.
The bad weather early in the year put
them behind considerably but if they
continue to hoist the bridges and cuI-
verts at their present rate no trouple
is anticipated from this source. Only
a few gaps in the grade work remain
and these will be finished up before the
track layer can reach them. There
has only been about six weeks so Tar
this year in which the bridge and grade
gangs could work and they have Ger
tainly made record-making progress IN
this time. It is confidentially expected
that the road will be in operation
through Ford and Gray counties by
July 1. In anticipation of this rapid
progress the Santa Fe and the ROCK
island have just completed switching
facilities between the Rock Island and
the new road at this point.

noon. 1.-THE men are all working, there
