j. c. Stubs Denies That Santa Fe and
Southern Pacific Have Agreement.

Los Angeles. Feb. 6---Amoug the
railroad officials who have arrived In
this city to attend the sitting of the
interstate commerce commission to-
morrow is j. C. Stubs, traffic dirsc-
tor of the Hartman lines who Is ac-
companled by his legal advisers aud
who has been in conference with local
Southern Pacific officials. The atten-
ton of MIR. Stubs was early diracted
Ia the car shortage OF which the citrus
fruit growers complain. Mr., Stubs
last night authorized the statement
that he had sent to all parts of the
country rush orders for all available
cars to assist in handling the crop.
Regarding the citrus fruit business, z.
S. Dunn, attorney for the Hartman
lines. speaking for Mr.. Stubbs, said.
There has never been any contract
between the Santa Fe and the South
ern Pacific TO 1iX rates on citrus fruits
or TO divide or pool that business The
companies have not tried to scalp the
orange business from packing houses
on the rails pf the other companies
by absorbing team haul to the tracks
of tho other company This Is not a
normal way of competing and If in
dulged IN would lead TO rebating.
While the rates have been the same
the competition between the Santa Fe
and Southern Pacific has been along
the lines Of getting the packing houses
established upon their own lines Rail-
roads will confer, as is proper upon
policy including rate-making but
these two roads have not bound them
selves by contract to fix or make rates.
THE present chairman of the in
terstate commerce commission Is on
record In his public writings to the
effect that where rates are subject
to public regulations competing car
riers should be given reasonable free
dom TO agree upon rates and to co.
operate in the appointment and d.
vision of business. In regard to the
car shortage l can say that II has
been caused by the unusual conges-
ton of traffic on all lines and inves-
legations made by commissioners have
shown that the railroads are doing
all possible to nlleYiate this trnnhle y

LEGISLATIVE SlDELIGHTS.

Speaker and Mrs Joseph were the
hosts at a delightful dinner given in
honor of the newspaper men OF the
house. at their home on II street last
evening. After partaking of a princely
spread, the pencil pushors We're treated
to an impromptu piano concert, in
which the musical versatility of the
genial speaker was fully demonstrated.
The occasion was entirely informal,
and was hugely enjoyed by the news
paper men.
The house committee on public health
will hold a meeting this afternoon, To
further consider the senate medical
bill by Benner Y. Smith and the osteo-
pathic bill by Johnson.
Speaker Joseph has a plan for effect
ing the consolidation of the University
and Agricultural college. His idea Is
TO submit TO the vote of the people two
amendments to the state constitution,
providing that the big institutions shall
be consolidated at Salt Lake and that
the Industrial school be removed from
its present location at Ogden TO occupy
the buildings vacated by the college at
Logan.

Terminal Site In Searchlight selected
And Rapid Progress Being Made.

Special Correspondence.
Searchllght New, Feb. 5.-The ia
niiliar maxim about THE proof of the
pudding being in the eating" is truly
exemplifled In the knocking that has
been handed 10 the Searchlight termin-
al townsite OF late. and that the I'M
called-for criticisms are without foun-
dalton Is now very apparent. The first
cry made was that the railroad was
not coming TO Searchlight. Along came
the graders followed by the ties, and
last but not least the steel, only await
ing the corning Of the crew to lay 1t on
the roadbed, Next came a hue and cry
about the impracticability of the depot
site. Recent developments have shown
that the proposed depot site Is located
in the only feasible place. as it would
be utterly impossible for any trains to
come any closer to Searchlight, owing
TO the steep grades. Following this
came wall that no one would dare
build on the new addition to the old
town. In reply to the last charge one
peep at the new district is sufficient to
make the charge seem as peevish as
the previous ones. Ry actual count
there are three grading outfits at work
cleaning off the brush. rocks and tree
stumps. Carpenters are busy erecting
houses. and as soon as the site is grad

Tho plans are at present in the hands
OF the architect, and as soon as they
emerge from his office, active work will
commence. The hustle and life shown
Is In direct denial to the charges that
have been hurled at the new town and
ccntradicts the statement made that
Searchlight's railroad was a dream.
That the Santa Fe system means
business and is bringing on the road, is
a we'll known fact, as the builders con,
nected with the road arrived several
days ago to commence the erection OF
the depot building and freight sheds.
