SHIPPERS ARE INDIGNANT.
Alleged Bit of Sharp Practice by tho South.
crn Pacific RAILWAY.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2l.-The Exam
iner says to-day
a sensation in local railroad circles has
been caused by discussion OF what was
considered a plan devised by tie South
ern Pacific 10 skim off the cream of the
height business for the Sunset route, in
which Huntington, Crocker, et al, are
interested, TO the exclusion of the Central
Pacific line, In which the Government Of
the United States and divers stockhold-
ers and bondholders are interested. Al
though the Central Pacific line has been
open FOR passenger trains for several days.
business men have been notified that no
freight could be sent over that road
further than Sacramento. The result has
nSsn @a M SS'fRsd 6%s otsn or
subject to the end that Il shall go by
the sunset route, through MoJave, FL
Paso and New Orleans.
THE object OF the managers In this
characteristic piece Of business is easily
co,oomprehended, /" said railroad agent.
The Southern Pacific owns the through
line from this city TO New Orleans ON
which Il gets all the money that is paid
for freight from San Francisco 10 New
Orleans. 1t is quite a different thing
when the Central Pacific {ne is con-
managers, at the best are only interested
IN the travel TO ogden. so the Govern
ment-aided road is given the go-by for
the benefit of the Sunset route. 1t Is to
the interest of the southern rac.fic mana
gers to have freight sent via the New
Orleans line, and for that reason the
Southern route was thrown open first.
As a general rule, business men OF San
Francisco dislike TO have products trans
ported by the Sunset route, on account
Of the excessive heat of the deserts
through which the road runs.
1T Is, therefore. difficult under normal
conditions 10 turn shipments that way,
but a great many merchants became
weary on account Of the long strike, and
when they saw an opening they started
their merchandise eastward, preferring 10
take the chances OF damage by heat
rather than walt indefinitely for the Cen
trail route to open. II Is known that New
York shipments were sent by way OF New
Orleans. because the Southern Pacific
company said 1t did not know when
the ogden route would be open"
1.-THE. business men OF San Francisco are
not the only sufferers by this bit OF sharp
practice. IL cuts ont from participation In
the freight business of California all the
Ines having western connections at Og-
len and their agents are not slow TO ex-
press themselves I'm forcible language on
he subject. The roads most affected are
the Union Pacific, Denver and RIO Grande,
he Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul, the
route, the Chicago and North

business that would naturally 90 their
