Evidence is not wanting of the close

Of the former to establish electric rail

the fight, and it was believed that the
differences had been patched up. Then
an agitation was begun in Los Angeles
for certain new franchises. coupled with
a } per cent fare proposition. The hacker
OF this was ostensibIy Attorney Garland,
and there was much speculation as TO
who was behind him. Finally the mask
was removed, and Senator Clark was re-

Huntington declared Senator Clark was
acting COR the Southern Pacific, and that
the Hartman interests were the prime
movers in the affair, and he promptly
resigned. The significance Of this res
