LITTLE DANGER OF SHORT line REMOVAL.
Judge Cornish Sees No Reason Why Headquarters Should Not
Remain fiere--Has Heard NIlhng 10 the Contrary.

Because a mans house buns down,
is that any reason why he should move
out Of town."
In brief such was the answer given
by Judge Cornish, vice president of the
oregon Short Line, Union Pacific and
Chicago 4 Alton, and confidential man
to Il. IL. Hartman the railroad mag
nate, to a question that Is agitating
business and railroad men OF salt Lake
city.
The question of moving the oregon
Short Line headquarters to Omaha has
cropped up at stated intervals for sew
eral years past and II was the opinion
in some quarters that when the Ore
gon Short Line general offices were
burned out yesterday, II there ever was
an intention on the part of the Harri-
man consolidation to fuse all the gem
eral Offices Of the railroads into one
headquarters that that step would be
taken in the near future, and that in
stead of rebuilding the quarters all the
principal offices would be moved 10
the Union Pacific headquarters on the
banks Of the Missouri river.
When seen this afternoon Judge Cor
nish dispelled this Illusion on the part
Of some of the residents here. II do
not think the quarters will be moved,
he said. Certainly have heard moth
ing to that effect. The matter has not
been even suggested In my presence"
Continuing Judge Cornish proceeded
to talk about the big fire and its dis
astrJus consequences. cone cannot put
an estimate upon the losses in this ca
anlty.' he said, FOR II is not a mat

MIR. HARTMAN SENDS THANKS.
The New Desere News Building Talked for Permanent Quar-
tiers for the Oregon Short Line.

The talk Of the probable removal OF
the O, $. l.. offices to Omaha on account
OF the recent fire, seems to be subsiding
on the street. Mr. W. S. Mccormick who
sent the dispatch TO Mr. Hartman at
New York on Tuesday evening express
Ing sympathy and stating that citizens
had provided temporary Offices for the
railroad force this afternoon received
the following despatch: Sincerely
thank you for your kind message and
efforts In our behalf Your suggestions
will be given proper consideration. f.
n. Hartman, Priest"
The dispatch sent by Mr. Mccormick
and associates informed Mr.. Hartman
that suitable permanent quarters could
be secured In an entirely freproof
building on Main street. This had
reference TO the new Deseret News
building in which applications for Off
ces are being almost daily filed. No
contracts have been entered into as yet,
however, and II the Short Line desired
10 obtain offices there and could await
the completion OF the building, the own
ers would be glad to let them have the
first chance. Several gentlemen drew
the attention Of the local railroad off
Gals 10 the Deseret News building as
a desirable place for permanent Offices
Of the o. S. L. and It Is said that the

matter was favorably received, though
of course IL had to be referred TO the
officials in the East before any decision
could be arrived at. The local officials
are known TO be averse to moving in
to any permanent quarters which are
not thoroughly flreproof, and the
News" building will be what Is known
as "A" class In this respect, being In
fact the only absolutely fire proof
structure In the city.

Apropos Of the big FIRE comes an an
nouncement that the Rocky Mountain
