PACIFIC COAST AOvICES
ESPECIAL TO THE sENrINEL.l
Wants the liOush Share

Wants the l.iOn's Share.
SAN Francisco, Sept. pa Chronicle
editor, drawing attention to the exorbitant
local rates established by the Northern
Pacific, says that what Willard designs to
do for California has also become apparent
by his offer to the Central Pacific TO pool
the rates on through freight, he taking the
lions share of the business, while con-
senting that they shall remain at their
present high figures. He offers no hope
Of relief if matters are to be settled on
that basis, and must not expect any gym
patty in California on account of his Wall
street troubles. Unless the Northern Pa
ciic can see it's way to independent action,
looking to the relief of the whole Pacific
Coast, he will let Gould and Huntington
have the road and compass under the
weight of some monstrous monopoly their
own destruction.
Continues TO Make n Grand Fight.
SAN Francisco, Sept. 26.- To-day's
conference OF Railroad Shippers, as the
managers are termed, evinced nothing i'm
p~ortant. As far as can be learned. the
Northern Pacific continues to make a game
fight, but who ia going to win is still an
open question. 1t il rumored this even
ing that the Vanderbilt interests are no
longer in the plot to obtain control Of the
Northern Pacific people. The uncertainty
OF Wall street, as indicated in to-day's dis
patches. had a corresponding effect here.
The probabilities are to-mOrrow's quota
tions will help the managers arrive at a
decision. The belief is that if the Willard
stocks can stand the storm of Wal street
they will come Of copquerors here, and
secure Q good percentage of the Pacific
Coast pool.
