Next Saturday the new rates on lumber
and shingles 20 into effect. These new
rates do not effect the main line, but on
the branch lines they are raised from 2iac
to &c per 100 pounds. with minimum
car OF 10000 pounds for shingles, and
$4,000 pounds for lumber. This is a dis
elimination against all OF the mills off the
main line, and although small yet it will
give the big mills OF Seattle and Tacoma
an advantage Of from S. to SIS car over
all the other mills OF the state, and is a
decidedly unjust discrimination.

Puzzle.

Huntington, Brice and Stone Try
ing to Solve the Union Pacific
Puzzle.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-Congress will
have hard problem to solve soon in
tine complications which have arisen
aver the stock of the Union Pacific
railroad, now in the hands of receivers.
During the past week there had been
much quiet discussion of the matter,
spurred on by the attention given to
other embarrassments in the railroad
situation arising from the management
of the receivers. Z. P. Huntington has
been in Washington for the past few
days, in consultation part CT the time
with Senator Brice, chairman of the
senate committee on Pacific railroads,
and also with other senators and repre-
sentatives. A result of his visit was the
introduction Of bill for refunding the
debt of the Union Pacific. Mr.. Hunt
ington's time was spent in explaining
his views to the representatives of the
house committee on Pacific railroads.
This committee, however, seems dis
posed to permit the senate to
Gdh0 lll6 Initiative III proposing
plans for readjusting the indebt-
edness of the railroad to the
government. If it should go to work
independently to devise scheme of
its own, troublesome differences
would probably ensue between the two
houses. Representative Reilly. of
Pennsylvania, the chairman of the
house committee, has conferred fire.
quently with Senator Brice on
the subject and is fully in.
formed Of the views Of the senate
committee. Several schemes for a
settlement have been proposed to the
house committee, but no one of them
yet has received sufficient backing to
justify its mention as probability Said
member OF the house: - 8
"ThlS matter Is going to be one ofjthe
most troublesome the Fifty-third con-
gress will have to deal with. Its per-
plexlties are greatly enlarged by9the
strong PopuliStic sentiment in congress,
which regards all corporations, and par
ticulariy railroad corporations, very
severely" Hon. Jerry Simpson, the
Populist leader, says that the govern
ment should buy the Union Pacific QUIT,
right and run it. is
''lf we succeeded with it, it would be q
step toward government control of rail-
roads," he added. /,
