PULLMAN COMPANY FIGHT ON.
Resisting Texas Order to Reduce
Their Rates.

Dallas, Texas, Feb. 2O-In the fed
eral court here today arguments were
presented in the matter of the tempo
rary Injunction secured by the Pull
man company restraining the enforce
ment of the order of the Texas rail-
road commission relative to the re-
duction of rates on Pullman cars. The
railroad commissions order, which
was to have become effective Febru-
ary l, called for reduction on Sleep
ing car rates from 50 to 81 for upper,
and $1.50 for lower berths.
The Pullman company, in contest
ing the order, pleads that 1t is not a
common carrier and hence does not
come within the jurisdiction of the
state railroad commission. The COM
pany further pleads that the commits
sion's order is contrary to the federal
constitution, which says that mo state
shall pass any bill or law that shall
impair the obligation of contracts" ;"
that these contracts were In full force
when the commission issued its order.
that so per cent of the railways of the
country are using the Pullman service
and that the charges are universal.

bad Washouts at Two Places on
Washington Division.

Once more the railroad traffic sit
uation is demoralized by high water.
The warm weather of the past few
days has swollen the streams until the
Washington division between Wallu-
la and Umatilla is badly damaged and
all traffic suspended. A bridge was
washed oul near Deschutes yesterday
evening and No. was turned back
from The Dalles. No. C, due here
this morning at o'clock, did not
arrive until II.
No trains are running on the WASH
ington division, the track having been
washed ont at Juniper and Cold
Springs. Work on the Walla Walla
branch line is progressing rapidly and
1t is hoped to have IT ready for use
in a few days.
What might have been a serious ac-
cilcnt was fortunately passed by sue
cessfullv last evening. In coming in
to the city No. ran over place
IN the track under which the grade
had been entirely washed away for
several feet but because of strength
of the heavy rail the engine and train
rassed ove~ the weakened place.
This evening it is hoped to run the
trains on the main line without in
terrupticn the bridge at neschutes
having been repaired.
