ST. LOUIS, March 2O.-A special from E
Paso, Texas, says:
Hon. Collin P. Huntington, vice-presi-
dent, and Colonel A n. Towne, general
manager of the Southern Pacific railway
company, came up from Mexico city and
crossed over from Juarec to this city.
Huntington said:
Il will have the best transcontinental line
and will make all needed Improvement this
year. Large expenditure will be made. If
1 can get moderate American prices l will
use iron ties for my entire system.
Legislative interference is the cause of
railroad stagnation and depression of bonds
and stocks. If the state has the right to
fix rates it has the right to confiscate prop
erty and fix the rental of every square foot
of property. Governor Stanford, Mr..
Crocl1er and carried the Southern Pacific
railroad bonds, amounting to S40,0O0,000,
for five years before we ever sold a dollar.
1t is that through traffic that pays and not
