President George Gould and party.
OF the Texas and Pacific. who have
been touring the entire Gould system,
finished rp their presentations at
New Orleans Friday. and have re-
turned North.
While in New Orleans, Mr.. Gould
stated that he was simply on a tour
of inspection, and his trip had no oth-
er Significance In the matter Of max
ing further arrangements for the
handling OF export grain at New Or
leans, Mr.. Gould said.
we already have the Westwego ia
cilities, which have 50 far proved suf-
ficient for the grain trade that we have
created. ana We propose to keep them
In condition first. then make every
necessary move to meet the demands
OF the growing business. We have
demonstrated that the small grains
are not susceptible to the influences Of
the climate here, and that corn may
be stored here for any length OF time,
without injury. That oversets the old
Idea that kept away much business. l
no not agree with Mr.. Depew In his
statement that the exporting OF grain
via this port was the result OF ARTIFICIAL
conditions, but am Of the opinion that
1t Is due here by right.
Your location gives the great south
western trade TO you, for you may
readily see that the diversion OF that
grain via Chicago and New York is not
natural when New orleans is much
nearer port In this light. why should
not New Orleans get the trade"
The fact that the Gould interests
have Just issued an Independent ex-
port grain tariff may be accepted as
an indication of that gentleman's de-
termination to take care Of New Or
leans interest in that respect, and
also that proper facilities will be pro-
vided there for the proper handling OF
grain. Passing on to a subject In which
Texas cattlemen are vitality Interested.
Mr. Gould said;
There Is another great business
which we are going to begin to de-
velop here at once; that is the export
ing OF cattle to European ports via
New orleans. | am taking a great
deal OF particular interest In that line.

The court finds that the Act in ques-
tion, whether constitutional or uncon-
stitutional. is restricted to the counties
OF the first and second class, and, conse-
quently, has no application to Sacra-
mento County or any other except the
City and County Of San Francisco and
the county of Los Angeles.
1t follows, therefore. that neither
this petitioner nor the respondents have
any interest in the determination of the
question which they have attempted to
submit, i. e., the constitutionality of the
Act of March, 1895, and that it ought to
be decided upon such attempted sub
mission. The writ is denied.
So the Supervisors will not be obliged
to call a general primary election for
all parties and appoint the officers
thereof. Each party will, as hereto
fore conduct its own primary.
