STATEMENT OF MELLEN,
The Northern Pacific viii Net Join IN.
Pool,
DECLARES THE PRESIDENT OF THE Roam
MIR. JeGcry Has Received n,
"nce that the Road Favored
the Plan.

New York. September 2o.-The Ti,es
says: The optimistic views Of tho ras,,,,
OF tuesdays conference of Western nresi.
dents. as expressed by Chairman Iefferv
on tuesday, are not generally shared nv
freight representatives and other rail.
road men in this city. That the absence
| from the conference of representatives Of
the Northern Pacific was more or less ot
an intentional slight. and that it fore
Dodes i'll for the future of the 81, PAM
committee was shown by a statement
from President Mellen of the Northern
Pacific.
VIII the Northern tschc," he was
asked. Join in the organization OF the
proposed st. Paul traffic committee?-
| he Northern Pacific" answered presl-
dent Mellen. will under no circumstance
Join in any pool, traffic committees or
other such agreement. and Mr.. Jeffery
mas received no assurance from us to The
effect that we are favorsbly disposed to-
ward such a plan"
! This statement was made very emphat-
ically. and as it is hardly probable thau he
other roads will organize a committee
! without the Northern Pacific, the terrific
rial committee plan may have to be
abandoned.
| But aside from this 1t was pointed out
by railroad officials that In spite of all
statements 1t was evident that the con.
ference had again failed to accomplish
any thing.
The appointment of committees which
are to report at the next conference is
nothing more or less than procrastina-
isf,f chi tn. - ,,rY,t-
mittees NAV consider as much as they
please; when it comes to reporting their
deliberations at the next conference it
will be found that no conclusion has been
reached"
Another official. whose knowledge Of the
freight situation throughout the country
is very accurate. said: The great dues-
ton which the presidents have not an
swered. and can not solve is what shall
be done with the low rate contracts en-
tered into between the Western roads and
their Central Traffic associa ton connec-
lions on business originating in trunk
line territory and which low rate con-
tracts do not expire until next year The
answer TO this question is an explanation
of whv nothing definite has been done
and WHY the committees have been or
dered to report at the December confer
ence. Nothing can he done until these
contracts have expired. which will be
soon after the December conference. one
of the principal items of freight covered
by these contracts is the tremendous ap-
pie crop of New York State. large part
of which will be moved West at low
rates"
1t is understood that one Of the matters
under discussion at Tuesdays conference.
and which raised quite a disturbance, was
the demand that the Chicago Great West
ern return to the roads the sum of $4,000
which 1t was claimed 1t had received in
excess of its share in the freight pool
Report has it that the representative Of
that road made most strenuous objections
to this demand. and that the matter is
not vet settled.

THE GULF AND INTERSTATE.
The Road Will Very Probably BE
Rebuilt,


Beaumont, Texas, September 20.-Geu-
eral Manager H. S. Spangler Of the Gulf
and Interstate railroad arrived in this
city this morning from Houston and Will
spend the dav here and leave tomorrow
for Galveston. This is Mr. Spangler's first
visit to Beaumont since the storm which
DESTROYED the Gulf and Interstate road.
Mr.. Spangler understands the interest
which the people of this section are TAX
ing In the matter of reconstructing the
Genii to Bolivar Point. In conversation
with The Post correspondent this morning
on the subject he said; Il regret that
am unable TO give you any definite news
of the future of the road, can not say
whether it will be rebuilt or not OF
course i have my private opinion about
the matter. and this is based on what
have picked up from the owners, that IL,
that the road will be rebuilt. There Is
nothing official in this. however. ! have
made a careful examination OF the dam
age which has been done and have formu-
lated an exhaustive report OF what Will
be required to rebuild the road. This
matter is now in the hands OF the owners
of the road and they have it under con-
sideration. Until they give out their in
IL Will DC lLlpO5SiD4S " hHOW
whether the road will be repaired
The damage to the property vii!
amount TO about $780, 900 and it will take
fully that much to repair it to its former
condition. The track is entirely gone
from High Island down and in many
places the right OF way now lies in the
gulf. or course this will necessitate pro-
curing new right of way, AT Bolivar also
the terminals and piers are completely
gone.
81 think. however that ] shall operate
the road as far as High Island right away,
or at least as soon as | can get the roll
ing stock and other equipment from Boil
var Point. AS it happened all our en-
gines were at the other end of the lsle
when the storm came up, and this ma
teriar will have 10 be brought around by
Houston. and when that is done we will
operate a daily train between this city
and High Island"
Mr.. T. ]. Ray. roadmaster for the Gulf
and Interstate. who has been in this city
since the storm. says relative to the re-
construction of the Gulf and Interstate,
that Il will take ar least three months to
get the road in shape to carry train
even with the weather favorable Under
present conditions. with labor so hard to
secure. II is doubtful IL the road could
possibly be put in shape to operate within
six months. The greatest damage to the
road. and that which would require the
longest time TO repair. is the wharves and
trestle work necessary to get out to deep
water with the train at Bolivar Point.
Mr.. Ray knows nothing OF the plans OF the
owners OF the road. but he thinks it will
be rebuilt beyond a doubt.

COTTON IN SOUTH TEXAS.
MIR. l.. SeubroOk Says Some Counties
Have an Excellent Crop.

Mr. L. Seabrook of Port Lavaca was in
the city yesterday from a visit of a week
to Fsyette and some of the other interior
counties in the interest OF immigration to
the coast. He could see no reason why
immigra ton to Southern Texas should be
retarded.
Mr. Seabrook said: THE cotton crop Of
this immediate section is short and in
some localities completely knocked out
but this does not apply to all OF Southern
Texas In fact, in some parts OF South
ern Texas, along the line of the Arkansas
Pass, for instance, the cotton crop is fully
as good as that in North and Central Texas
and Mexican cotton pickers are demanding
dollar per hundred. Besides we have the
rice and cane and other crops to fall
back upon that are In fine condition and
this section this year. take 1t as a whole,
has been blessed with a record breaking
vegetable crop.
Another encouraging feature OF the
situation is the fact that that destructive
insect, the Mexican boil weeyil, has dis
appeared from the counties first afflicted
"Our section has had no such widespread
crop black eye as some contend, and 1t Is
our business to reach out stronger than
ever and invite people to come in"
