JUDGE sANBoRN's ORDER.
Speculation at Headquarters as to
the Effect of 1t.

Speculation at Headquarters as to
the Effect of 1t.
Omaha, May 16.-It seems impossible to
tell how far or to what extent the rela-
ticnship between the Union Pacific and
Oregon Short Line will be affected by
Judge Sanborn's order in the Short Line
case at St. Paul yesterday. officials at
headquarters are somewhat at sea as to
just what the order contemplated. Viewed
from almost any standpoint, the condi-
tons are such that it may contemplate
any further propositions. 1t may mean
the payment OF interest on coupons in de-
fault plus the interest accrued on the date
the property goes to the new receiver,
and to accrue during the life of the re-
ownership; coupons on all first mortgages
on the entire Short Line system, or cou-
pons plus interest accrued on the entire
system and to accrue during the life of
the receivership. 1t is believed that
should the American Loan & Trust COM
pany attempt to pay off the interest de-
faulted and taking the four propositions
as basis, in view of the uncertainty at
taching TO the order, it is roughly ap-
proximated that the amount involved in
these propositions will range from SZ5O,OOO
to $1,25O,O0O.
General Solicitor Thurston. to a Bee
reporter, outlined the position of the re-
ceivers, whom he represents, and his
opinion as to exactly what the order of
Judge Sanborn contemplates. He said:
Sanborn's order or opinion in the matter
of the Short Line receiverShip, but there
can be no question but what the judge
has decided in our favor as fully and
completely as we asked. It was repeated
ly conceded in the argument that if the
second mortgage holders would pay or
give bond to pay the first mortgage inter-
est, then they were entitled to an order
putting their receiver in charge of the
property. On the hearing we offered 10
withdraw from the argument if they
would pay the first mortgage interest or
give good and sufficient bonds to pay it
This the other side was not prepared TO
do and insisted that their receiver was
entitled to possession of. the property
without requiring them to pay the inter
est. All we contended for was the right
of retention by the present receivers ap-
pointed under the first mortgage interest
until the first mortgage interest was paid.
81 am not able to state just what
an cunt it will be necessary for the sec
ond mortgage holders to advance to meet
the deficiency in the first mortgage in
terest, but think there is something like
S300,0 to 100000, and in my judgment it
is not at all likely that the second mort
gage bondholders will raise and pay this
money for the mere purpose Of putting
their receiver in charge of the property
during foreclosure proceedings. It stands
however, conceded that the second mort
gage under its foreclosure bill has the
absolute right TO possession Of the prop
erty upon taking care Of the first mort
gage interest"

The report of the decision of Judge
Sanborn in the great Short Line re-
Ownership case, as reported in The
Herald's Associated Press dispatches,
caused much discussion among the
Union Pacific officials yesterday and
was the general theme of conversation
in railway circles.
One Union Pacific official who, like
all the rest, has followed the proceed
ings closely from the first. stated to a
Herald man yesterday that the con-
illusions volunteered in the dispatch
were not at all borne out by the sum-
mary of the decision. 81 do not be-
leve." said he, "that John NJ. Egan
will ever be the receiver Of the Oregon
Short Line, or that the road will be
separated from the Union Pacific sys-
tenn"
What, in your opinion, will be the
effect Of such an appointment If it is
finally made?"
ST believe it will operate strongly
against Salt Lake and this section.
Not at first, perhaps, but in the long
run the effect will be disastrous, be-
cause there is little doubt but that
under such an arrangement the Short
Line will be operated in the interests
of Portland and the northwestern
cities and against Salt Lake"

NORTHERN PACIFIC.
Hill Succeeds In Closing Up a New
Deal.


New York. May ia Wall street
news agency says: There is good au-
thority for the statement that James
G. Hill has succeeded in closing some
deal involving his connection in some
way with Northern Pacific affairs.
The nature of the deal cannot be ex-
actly learned, but we understand the
purchase or the control of the North
ern Pacific second mortgage bonds,
other than those held by the Adams
committee interests, in concert with
whom Hill is understood to be acting.
plays an important point therein. Hill
is expected to arrive from London to-
morrow night. Samuel Hill is coming
east to meet him. 1'he recent decline
in the junior bonds and stocks of the
company is thought to be due to the
belief on the part of some of the hold
ers that the reorganization of the
property IS likely to be severe. 1t is
pointed out that the control of the Sec
ond and third mortgages would be IN
necessary unless a drastic reorganiza-
ton was intended. The recent inn
provement in the company's business,
1t is thought, may interfere with the
drastic plan.

CANADIAN PACIFIC BOYCOTT.
The Real Trouble VIII Now Begin.

The Real Trouble VIII Now Begin.
Chicago, May 16.-More definite infor-
nation regarding the Canadian Pacific
boycott by the Trunk lines was received
today by the Western Transcontinental
lines, and it in no way tends to relieve
the situation. The direct cause of the
boycott was the refusal of the Canadian
Pacific to withdraw all its orders from
the New York market. About two weeks
ago the trunk lines held a meeting at
which an agreement was reached which
would, it is supposed, put an end to the
fight between the Canadian. Pacific and
the Grand Trunk. Under this agreement
the Canadian Pacific differentials were
to be shown in the trunk line rate sheets
on the condition that the Canadian Pa
cifc withdraw all its orders from the
territory of the trunk lines and leave to
them the distribution of business arising
in their territory. The Canadian Pacific
refused the conditions and its tickets
were promptly turned toward the wall
Now the real trouble will begin, for the
Canadian Pacific viii, without doubt, in
crease the number of its orders in New
York, pay large commissions on emigrant
business and make a hot fight generally
for its share Of business.

superintendent e. E. Calvin was IN

Herald reporter. stated that he had
come for visit with some of his old
friends, while Mrs. Calvin was deep in
the mysteries of shopping.
He expressed the kindest feeling
for his associates in his service of the
Oregon Short Line. with which he has
been connected for the past fifteen
years. He has also had the pleasant
est relations with the business men Of
Utah. He will leave for Palestine,
Tex, On the 25th inst.
The business prospects for this year
he believes are better than for the past
two years and the freight traffic this

known it to be. An order for 600 stock
cars, such as had been received re-
Gently, was something unprecedented
at this season. Cattle are being
