Tomorrow the first annual meeting Of the
stockholders of the Pacific Coast Company
vi be held IN New York for The purpose
q electing a boar; OF directors. Although
the Oregon Improvement Company has been
succeeded several months ny the Pacific

pany was purchased a. the sale O., the
master in chancery by T. jefferson Cooit>tSs.
jr, and J. l. Waterbury. OF the re-organi2a-
ton committee.
a keen contest has been on between two
factions OF the company for the control OF
the voting majority IN the Stockholders
meeting for several weeks past. The intt.-
ests represented by The Waterbury commit
tee which reovganized the company. have.
il is understood. secured more than a safe
majority OF The shares for the meeting te-
morrow. The issue between the two parties
in the company has been the future policy
OF the company. The announced policy Of
the Waterbury interests was TO elect a
beard OF directors which would foster strong
business relations with certain trans-conti-
mental lines.
Since the year when the Oregon Improve
me2t began securing interests in Seattle
and this state. in building the Columbia &
Puget sound railroad and in the establish
ment or steamship lines between Seattle
and San Francisco and Seattle and Alaskan
ports. the company has borne a very close
relation TO the progress and constantly
growing commerce Of the city. The future
policy OF the road bearing upon the trans
continental lines IS held TO be- likewise OF
vital Importance to Sedttle and among rail-
road and financial! men much interest is be-
ms manifested in tonorrows meeting in
