HAND OF THE RAILROAD
STAYS DEMURRlGE: BILL
Measure Providing Penalty
for Non-Delivery of
Cars Beaten
APPEALS ARE IN VAIN
Assenblyrnen Dwell Upon
Loss to Shippers, but
Without Effect
CALL HEADQUARTERS,
1907 EIGHTH STREET.

SACRAMENTO. March 6.-"If you are
here in. the interest of the people Of
California you will vote for this bill.
If you are here 10 represent the South
ern Pacific Company, you viii vote
against it,"
That is the way Assemblyman Drew
of Fresno closed his argument for his
bill patterned after the Texas car law
and providing that railroads must pay
reciprocal demurrage amounting to $5
day for every car ordered by ship
pers and not delivered within a reason
able time The Assembly's answer to
Drew was the slaughter OF the bill by
vote of 35 noes to 81 ayes.
Phil Walsh OF Oakland led the op-
position to the bill. His principal ar
gument carried considerable weight. 1t
signature of E. e. Calvin, vice president
and general manager of the Southern
Pacific.
Several members talked OF the great
loss caused by lack OF cars. McMullin
told how railroads were stripping Cali
fornia of cars to take them to States
which had reciprocal demurrage laws.
Four hundred cars had been hurried
to Texas and 200 to Kansas. In con-
clusion McMullin said:
For Gods sake, gentlemen. is it true
what Jere Burke said to me-that the
railroad viii not permit any legisla-
tion by which it is to be regulated.
II it is not true. give the people the
relief they demand"
1t was true-painfully true-accord-
ing TO the roll call.

HARTMAN BELIEVED To
HAVE SCORED BIC COUP
Buying Reading Stock to
Complete System Across
the Continent
Continued From Page /, Column

story that Hartman was back or the
pool and that formal announcement
would be forthcoming soon that the
Union Pacific was in control of a sys-
tenn reaching from San Francisco to
New York caused little surprise.
Sensational buying of the shares of
the Reading Company gave Wall street
its most exciting experience today since
the Northern Pacific contest of six
years ago. Reading had been strong
in the face of generally weak market
all through the morning session of
the Stock Exchange. Shortly after 1
o'clock there developed an enormous
buying movement, which carried the
price up more than eight points in
half an hour.
Up to the close of the market there
was nothing TO show the source of the
purchasing orders. but a persistent ru-
NOR was in circulation that Hartman
was buying the stocks with the object
OF acquiring control of the property,
and that he was taking all that was
offered in the open market, in addi-
tion to the holdings of II. c. Frick,
which he was said to have purchased
privately.
1T was said also that the Reading
stock held by the Lake Shore had been
turned over to Hartman so that he
would have absolute control. 1t was
pointed out that Flick, having become
director of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company. would desire to dispose of
his Reading stock and that as he was
friendly with the Hartman interests
he would be likely to sell to them IL
they cared to buy.
The reports as to Harriman's buying
were circulated throughout the fnan-
cial district and were given credence
in spite of the lack of anything official
to- confirm them. There were other ru-
mors, however. One of these was that
J. p Morgan & Co, who formerly domi-
mated Reading, were buying to resume
their former position in the property;
another was that the New York Central
was adding to Lake Shore holdings of
Reading and third attributed the
buying to the Delaware, Lackawanna
and western. Still another rumor was
that Frick was buying back stock that
he sold some time ago at higher prices.
All the time that the stock was going
up efforts were made without success to
discover the source of the buying and
to obtain either denial or confirmation
of the various reports in circulation.
At the offices of the banking houses as
sociated with the different parties men
toned in the rumors all knowledge of
the movement was denied. but at the
same time 1T was said that independent

coALINGA BILL PASSES
People In Affected District 10 Vote ON
Annexation to Kings

SACRAMENTO. March s.-After caus-
ing an exceedingly bitter and long
drswn-out fight, which commenced
with the convening of the Legislature,
the Fresno Kings County division con-
troversy was SO quietly settled today
that hardly any attention was paid to
the passage Of McGuires bin in the
Senate.
The bill was stubbornly fought for
weeks. The matter was finally COM
promised by submitting the question
Of annexation sby Kings County of the
Coalinga district to a vote of the peo-
pie in the territory affected.
