Notes Gathered From Supf. GLADDEN.
While in Eureka last Wednesday, l..
K. GLADDEN., superintendent OF the new
railway company, called at the SENTINEL
office, and during his visit stated that on
his return 10 Palisade he expected to
find the freight aud passen ger tar ifs
under which the new company was to
operate ready to give out to the public,
and that these with the general an.
nouncement that the road would COM
menoe business on Monday, May 6,
wo uld be sen to the SENTINEL for pub
LEGATION this week.
II is now understood these tariffs will
not be acted upon by the State Railroad
Commission until May 6, when, il found
satisfactory by the Railroad Commits
sion, they will be released for publica-
ton. This. without doubt, accounts for
the omission Of any mention in the
above official announcement regarding
the new company's freight and passen-
ger rates.
Superintendent GLADDEN., who Is Of
pleasing and affable address, made it
plain that while he was out for business
and the best interests Of his company,
he had taken his present position with
the distinct understanding that as long
as he had charge Of the road, all. ire
spective Of the amoun of business Of
fered, should be gwen q square deal.
He said it was his intention to use his
best efforts for the up.building OF En-
reka aud all sections that would prove
tributary to the railroad; that as their ac-
tivity aud business improved. so pro
portionately would the business and
tonnage of the railroad.
He said, unoffically. it was the inten-
tion of the company ito handle the ex-
press aud telegraph service Tor the
present, aud that temporarily this bust
ness would be handled from the com
pany's depot in Eureka. Later. or as
soon as business justified, the express
aud telegraph service would be moved
into offices in the central portion OF the
town. He believed that about the
same freight and passenger rates as in
| effect when the E. & p. was in opera
| ton would govern the new company's
rates. but said he understood 1t had
been determined to put q lower rate on
all supplies used in the mines and by
the mining companies. Ii was hoped
the telegraph repair gang working on
the line between Palisade and Eureka
would have it completed so that Eureka
| would be in touch with the outside
world by wire by next Monday. The
railway company had asked for the
mail service between Palisade and Eu-
reka, but Mr.. GLADDEN. was not informed
as to what answer had been returned by
the Post Office Department.. In the
meantime the stage company would
| continue to carry the mails between
Eureka aud Palisade.
Supt. GLADDEN. comes to Eureka next
Monday with the intention OF remain
ing at this end Of the line for some little
time, and we look forward to some new
moves and announcements from him
that will help Eureka to regain some OF
her lost prestige.
