ABSORPTION OF OREGON SHORT Line
Closing of the Ogden Gateway and Numerous Other Important
Changes Predicted as the Result OF The Big
Railway Move

With the news OF the operations Of the
Hartman syndicate, the resignation Of
$. W, Eccles as traffic manager Of the
Oregon Short Line and the general UNI
easiness that is felt to surcharge the
railroad atmosphere throughout the
West, the life Of the average railroad
man Is. to quote the Gilbert and Sulli-
van opera, mot a happy one"
On Railroad Row this morning all
kings Of stories were rampant, from
the appointment OF a successor 10 S. W.
Eccles to the closing down of the gem
eral offices Of the Oregon Short Line,
the padlocking OF the ogden gateway,
and the subsequent retirement from
official life OF the numerous freight and
live stock agents that are attached to
the various general agencies in Salt
Lake.
The railroad men generally appreciate
the fact that It was mainly through the
efforts Of Mr.. Eccles that the Ogden
gateway has been kept open. The de-
parting traffic manager has stood out
for that boon for months past. and the
oregon short Line has maintained its
position as being a distinct system to
certain extent Now that he is about to
fold up his tent and board the train for
Gotham there arc those who have been
watching the trend Of circumstances for
some time past those who predict that
this is bat the beginning OF the end and
that the Oregon Short Line will ulti-
mately be directed from Omaha at the
general offices Of the Union Pacific. L
is generally conceded that, to a certain
extent. this has been the case for
several months past. as the wool men
have testified TO during the recent agl-
tation here during the past season.

BARNETT DISCHARGED.
Engineer Accused of Selling Mrs. Rugg,
but Latter Neglects Prosecution.

Last evening Acting Sergeant Miner
arrested Thomas Barnett an engineer
on the Rio Grande Western, on the
charge Of assaulting woman who gave
her name as Mrs John Rugg Of 1893
south Fourth West street. The lady
swore to the complaint yesterday after
noon before Judge Timmony, and a
warrant was at once issued.
Mrs. Rugg asserts that Barnett has
been walking up and down In from Of
her place for several evenings, and that
on more than one occasion he made at
Temps tn force an entrance into her
house. She says that a few nights ago
Barnett was trying TO get into the
house. and becoming frightened she ran
out Of the front door As she did so.
she says Barnett seized her and tried TO
hold her. When the matter came up
before Judge Timmony this Afternoon,
the accused entered q plea Of not guilty.
Owing to the fact that the complain
ing witness did not appear, Prosecutor
Dlehl asked that the case go over until
Monday but Judge Tlmmony held that
the defendant had rights which ought
TO be respected and he ordered Barnett
discharged for want Of prosecution.
