rai'road, arrived yesterday from Tacoma
and will leave ut ten o'clock this morn.
ing for St. PAU, stopping en- route ae
Spokane Falls, Helena and Butte. He
was seen by an Oregoni0n reporter, to
whom he made the following statement
IN rc-ard to rates on ore from Coeur
d Alcne: The No,thern Pacific stands
ready to make further concessions ON
rates on ore when Por.llnd is ready to
handle it, but we don't want to fix rates
Tor sm"lter when there is only NOR.
tar and pcstle This rate which Port
land asks is not fer the benefit of Port
land, but of San Francisco, which is sat.
ished with the rate 1t now erioys. I
know that all the ore that has been chip.
ped to San Francisco has paid handsome
returns. 1t is rurely question of
revenue, not of sentiment, with the
Northern Pacific railroad. We do not
want to haul ore for So 40 a ton when
we can get $40 10, any more than the
people who own it want to sell it for Sc
or 81 ton less than its market value"
"What rate would you make if Port.
land had reduction works q
"rhat depends altogether on the
capacity. Whenever Portland puts up
works tha. can handle 150 tons day.,
so as to give us something to carry, we
are to grant the concession. The rate
from Occur d Alcne to San Francisco is
Sl3 40 ton and to Portland $40 40,
and if any line of reason can be adduced
to show that Portland has not the better
of the bargain | would like to hear it.
The Occur Alene ore goes to Wickes.
Montana, in 'ran'if. That is, it is part.
ly reduced there. The rate to Wickes
is S. ton and from Wickcs to St. Paul
en- route to Newark, N. j., there is q
rate o! ST. a ton. Tho shipments Of
ore to Wickcs the last four months have
been just two carloads. The major Dor.
ton OF the ore finds its way to San
Francisco via Tacoma or Portland. The
shipments of ore from Occur d 'Alcne to
Wickcs, thence to San Francisco via
Tacoma, from October to January 90
were 1872, 1000 pounds to Portland local.
ly and San Francisco via Portland 82s,.
600 pounds, the records OF the company
showing that but a small percentage Of
the ore retained in Portland. From
November !, 1887, to February 1B,,-,
1855, eish'y-four carloads Of ore were
shipped to Omaha and none to Helena"
"What rate will you make to Tacoma
when the works there start up?"
"The rate will be $40 40 ton. same
as to Portland. The Tacoma works will
not start up for year yet"
Mt. Oakes added that he did not
know whether The Northern Pacifc
would build any branches this yelr. He
said that trains would be running through
The Cascade tunnel in May. He was
glad to see the country Ir,grcs Ing and
=
thought Portland should give al ito
business to the Northern Pacific.

The books commonly assume that

lie certainly has no creatcr ri.ht. even
though acting under cxrcss permission
from the parent; for the latter cannot

Here, under the same law the people

there was Il money panic, owing to
the failure of the banks all over the
country. Their promises redeema-

equivalent Of coin. Their failure pro
