Charles II. Schlacks retired as vice
president of the Denver d Rio
Grande railroad at a meeting of the
directors held in New York last
Thursday. The office held by Mr..
SchlaCks will remain vacant and
there will in the future be only one
vice president for the company. +.

president and director, were all pres
ent at the meeting, All the old Off
cials, with the exception of Mr..
Schlacks, We're reelected.
The directors took up for discus
sion plans for the coming year, which
involve the preparation of the 1913
budget. 1t probably will be some
time before the budget is finally
made up, but it is understood that it
Will include appropriations for nu-
merOuS improvements to cost be
tween S5,OO0.OO0 and $1O,UOO.OOO.
These include the continuation Of
the double track work, which was
commenced this year, the standard
gauging of the Salida-Montrose line:
the enlargement of shops at mum
Der of points, and the purchase of
additional equipment
There has been some doubt in the
public mind for n year as TO the re-
lations of Vice President Schlacks to
the Denver Il Rio Grande. His name
as an official was dropped year
ago from the official railway guide.
