RIGHT-OF-WAY FIGHT.
Clark Forces Willing to Yield, but
others Holding Jut.

SALT LAKE, Utah, April 2S.-According
to a Herald special from Uvada. Utah. Col.
Maxson, who is in charge of the Clark
forces at the disputed right of way near
Uvada, was to-day served with notice by
the representatives of the Oregon Short
line that an injunction had been issued by
the United States Court at Carson City
prohibiting the San Pedro Company from
interfering with the Short-line in it's con-
struction of a railroad between Uvada,
Clover Valley Junction n Pioche.
Colonel Maxson refused to accept service
on the ground that the order lacked Of
fetal identity, and at once dispatched word
to his men at the front TO ignore the order.
The Clark forces, however, are preparing to
yield gracefully TO their rivals so soon
as the United States marshal serves Of
fetal notice; but until that time they de-
clare they will hold every inch of ground
they now possess even at the risk of a
fight. In this decision they are upheld by
the officers of the Clark interests in Salt
Lake and Los Angeles. who have tele-
graphed them TO make no further conces-
