Win Their Suit.

George Hargreaves. purchasing agent of
the chicago, Burlington 81 Quincy rail-
road, with his wife and party of friends,
arrived in the city yesterday afternoon.
lie Is accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. John
L. White, of Fort Wayne, Ind, and Mr..
ana Mrs. George Full ier, of st. Paul, and is
making pleasure trip along the coast in
a private car. The party came west over
the Santa Fee, travelled through California
on the Southern Pacific, came north to
Tacoma last Saturday and went to Vic
toria on the steamer North Pacific. They
came by the same boat to this city yester-
day, and left by the North Pacific last
evening for Linnton. They will there
leave the car and go up the Columbia by
steamer to The Dalles, and go East over
the Union Pacific.
Mr.. Hargreaves, in an interview with
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES reporter, confirmed
the statements already published that the
burlington is extending its line from
wyoming through Montana to connec-
ton with the Great Northern, saying:
We are extending to connect with the Great
Northern, but the point OF connection has not
yet been decided upon In order to do SO We shall
have to cross the Northern Pacific, and thus
make connection with it also. The road will be
nnlshed this year or next, probably next, and
mutual trai1ic arrangement will be made with
the Great Northern by which the Burlington
Will reach the Coast ana the Great Northern
Will reach points on our line. Hitherto our
business has been mainly in the grain growing
country, and we have handled such hogs and
cattle as are raised there, but the extensions of
the last year or two have brought us nearer the
cattle country, and the present extension will
run right into it and the mining districts also.
Our people believe in this Sound country and
want to reach it. / should like to own some of
1t myself if can have something to say IN tx
ing the price.

The Wyoming Cattle Trail.

CHEYENNE Wyo., May GA noted aggreca-
ton of railroad men are in town today At their
head Is General Manager Dickinson, dsnked by
w. A. Duel, respectively general superinten-
dent of the Gulf vision and general superln-
tendent OF the Nebraska division. Among the
others General Freight Agent Munroe,
Assistant General Freight AGENT Wild, Superin-
tendent Touhey, OF Denver, and the assistant
superintendent of North Platte. The entire
party visited the imprisoned stockmen at Fort
Russell, and lG:er a call was made on Governor
Barber relative to his proclamation prohibiting
Southern cattle from being driven across the
state to adjoining states. This has been very
point. Last year cattle were con-
signed to Grin Junction, on the Union Pacific,
and then transferred by the Northwestern TO
the Black Hills. AS Il consequence several big
outfits who threatened 10 withdraw their busi-
ness from the Northwestern road in the event
that this was continued during the present
season. This probably explains why the North
western declined to make any through rates.
Local rates were demanded from Grin Junction
to the place OF destination, rs the cattle con-
signed 10 Montana could not, under the procla-
nation, be unloaded Tor trailing at Grin, and
the business has been practically at stand
still. A strong talk was made to the governor,
but he refused to alter the quarantine procla-
nation to allow the unloading of Texas steers
at Grin Junction. The regulation prevents the
trailing OF 200, 900 head of erassers across the
state. The dozen Union Pacific men who were
here trying to effect compromise are very much
disappointed. Unless a low joint rate for do
livery at Brennan, ). d., can be made the Union
Pacific will suffer heavy loss in traffic.

TROUBLE OVER RIGHT-OF-WAY.
Third Trial OF . Suit Involving $780,
Commissioner Kiefer Decides Don
SUE . Legal Resident.

Judge Lichtenberg yesterday made .
temporary settlement of the fight between
the Columbia & Puget Sound and Seattle
Montana railways over the right-of-way
At the intersection of King street and Rail-
road avenue. The Columbia & Puget
Sound claims title TO the land where Rail-
road avenue runs by right of occupancy
for years and by putting improvements on
Il. The Seattle 81 Montana claims right
of-way by a franchise granted it by the
city.
The suit in question was brought last
year by the Seattle & Montana to enjoin
the other road from an alleged encroach-
nent on its right-of-way by laying track
over it. The Stetson-Post Mill Company,
through whose premises Railroad avenue
would run if produced, came in as inter-
yenor to protect its rights and sought to
enjoin tracklaying by the Seattle & Mon
tana.
The hearing on an application for a
temporary injunction was had yesterday
by Judge Lichtenberg and long arguments
made by the attorneys of the different par
ties. The court announced that it would
grant the temporary Injunction with leave
TO move for dissolution at any time. The
Injunction was, however, to apply not
only to the Columbia & Puget Sound but
also to the Seattle 81 Montana to stop any
further work.

The case of William Wadhams VS.. Alfred
Page and Joseph Green, which yesterday
had its third trial in the superior court,
has been the cause of remarkably long

business with Wadhams, who lived in
Portland. The firm Of Page e. Green was
dissolved in 1884, Green retiring and Page
assuming all obligations. At that time
there was balance of 1908 43 due Wad-
hams. Afterward Page fed the country
10 avoid his creditors and in 1887 Wad-
hams brought suit against Green to re-
cover the debt from him.
The case has twice gone up to the
supreme court on appeal and sent back
for new trials and the costs now amount
to far mere than the sum named in the
complaint. The jury was out about ten
minutes before bringing in verdict for
the defendant. Green.
