San Francisco Merchants Fighting the
Interior.
SAN Francisco, October 6th.-A promi-
nent official of the Central Pacific Railroad
Company was interviewed to-day respect
ing the alleged movement of the San Fran
cisco Board of Trade and other prominent
mercantile organizations to induce the rail
road company to discontinue their interior
terminal points, of which mention has al
ready been made. He admitted that such
a move was being made, and had no doubt
but that San Francisco merchants would
do everything in their power to accomplish
their purpose. He nevertheless believed
that it would be without result.
| Without desiring to answer in the
name OF the company, it was his
opinion that such a scheme was now i'm
practicable, as any chang in the direction
sought for by the San Francisco merchants
would only tend to disturb the business
operations Of these internal terminal e
tiers, and in q prOportionate measure disturb
the business operations of the several To-
~calities dependent on these interior centers.
He gave it as his further opinion that the
railroad company having, for nelson's
which they considered sound, granted these
privileges to interior centers, it would not
now withdraw them.
