MAY ADJUST DIFFERENCES
Harmonious Agreement Between Hill
and Hartman Interests.

New York, July 15.-Negotiations
for the harmonious adjustment of the
Hartman and Hill interests on the
Pacific coast are said to be practically
completed.
Recent purchases of about $2,0OO,0O0
of tide water terminal lands in Ia
coma and Seattle gave rise to reports
that Mr.. Hartman was planning to
build an Independent outlet for the
Union Pacific in these two cities. 1t
is now announced that the Northern
Pacific management, in order to pre-
vent the construction of a rival line
to Puget sound, will make tariff ar
rangement with Harriman's Oregon
Short Line from Portland to Tacoma
and SeattA
A potent factor in bringing about
this harmonious arrangement was the
Rockefeller interest, which has be-
come power recognized within trans
continental railroad affairs.

neutral powers may protest, considers
that it will be difficult to refuse either
