Santa Fe Extensions.
Ft Worth. Tex, Jan. 27.—There
has been considerable speculation
here in railroad circles the last
week as to the intentions of the
Santa be company in purchasing
the Pecos Valley and Northeast-
ern road from Amarillo to Pecos
It is thought by some that the
company will, beyond any ques
tion of doubt, extend from Ros-
well, N. M. to Albuquerque, N. M.
and from Pecos City, Tex., to San
Angelo, a combined distance of
; probably 200 or 250 miles, giving
the Santa Fe a trans-continental
line from Galveston by way of
San Angelo to San Francisco,
saving, by filling in these gaps, a
great deal of unnecessary mileage
and heavy grades. The presence
of President Ripley at Roswell
last week and the expressions he
made there are construed to mean
that his company contemplates
early action in getting a short
line from the Gulf of Mexico to
the Pacific Ocean.

Temple People Jubilant.
Temple people are confident
that the Santa Fe gap will be
filled up at an early date, and that
Temple, as the diverging point
on a great system of railways,
will become a “future great.”
The following special from Tem-
ple to the Dallas News explains
the situation:
The reports that come from
different quarters concerning the
proposed closing of the San An-
gelo and Roswell, N. M., gaps of
the Santa Fe are read with much
interest here. It has always been
an announced policy of the road
to complete a Pacific route via
Temple. Now that .the consum

Miss Barton, of the Red Cross

a statement of her expenditures
at Galveston. Some excitement
and much talk has been raised by
the request.

I a decided picking up in real es-
tate values. And in the collecting
of evidence that the gaps will be
closed, and that a through service
is planned by way of Temple,
there may be added the figures,
“work recently done." A great
yard has been platted, embracing
a large tract that lies between
the main line and the San Angelo
branch. There is already a large
yard here and some forty acres of
unoccupied reservation, but this
new survey includes not less than
loo acres additional When the
gaps are closed and the trains run
through from Galveston
Francisco, ail over a single sys-
tem, Temple will logically be the Warrior
base of operations and of sup
plies tor a stretch of nearly 1,000
pules westward to that point
where a main line is again touch-
ed, somewhere in New Mexico,

Santa
