without foundation. • The estab-
lishment of such sprveice would
connect the Trinity and Brazos
Valley with the Colorado South-
ern-Fort Worth and Denver City
lines, these roads being the joint

with headquarters in Denver, is
in Houston at the present time
conferring with president Rob-
ing. The two officials spent Sat-
urday and Sunday in Galveston.
“To be sure I have been try-
ing to get into Fort Worth with
the Trinity and Brazos Valley,"
said Mr. Robins to a Post repre-
sentative, “and this road is
ready to establish this service
just as soon as we can effect an
arrangement on a basis that will
pay us. Until we make a profit-
able deal the matter will stand.
We expect to consummates deal;
it may be at once or it may be
six months from now."
It is believed that the Trinity
& Brazos Valley is considdering a
trackage rights agreement with
the Houston and Texas Central
to use that company’s, rails be-
tween Waxahachie and Fort

At the last session of the Coun-
ty Commissioners Court, Com-
missioner Cain of Precinct No.
1 and Commissioner Cobb of
Precinct No. 4 were authorized
to grade the Teague-Faifield
road. Mr. Cain began on Gep-
pert hill, at the precinct line,
Wednesday with a crew of men,
teams and a grader, working
towards Fairfield. Mr. Cobb has
engaged a grader to work this
end of the road, but since there
is indications of rain, and the
work could be much more effec-
tively done after a rain, it thas
beenheld up. It will be done when
considered best, and as soon as
possible. This will preparp this
road for the winter rains and
