Effort to Divorce seutherm Pacific from

Effort to Divorce southerm Pacific from
 Union Company.
 Chicago, March 29.---Attorney Henry c. Crawford of this city announced today that a bill in equity in behalf of the Crocker Estate Company of San Francisco and Thomas H. Hubbard of San Francisco, has been filed in tho court of Austin, Texas, asking that the Southern Pacific Railroad Company be restrainined from paying dividends upon It's common stock amounting to $4,0o0, ,000.
 The court is asked to decree that the Union Pacific Railroad controls and operates system of railroads, which is in constant and natural competition with the Southern Pacific between San Francisco and New Orleans contrary to public policy and in violation of the laws of the United States and the laws of Texas"
 the Union Pacific Company and its of- ficers or agents from hereafter voting on any stock of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, or exercising any direction or control over the Southern Pacific Road or over It's finances, in- cluding the Galveston. Harrisburg and San Antonio Company.
 It is said by the compliments that to fully protect the liens and priori- ties of the second mortgage West Di- vision Bonds" that the court will eith- CT appoint a receiver for the West ern Division" or direct the mortgage trustees to enter into possession and operate the lines under the direction of the court
 The complainants say that they hold more than $3,000,000 of the total of $6.S54, 900 of second mortgage bonds of the Galveston, Harrisburg and San An tonic Company and aver that the in- terest and sinking fund installments past due amount to $2.500 900 and claim that inasmuch as the Southern Pacific assumes and agreed to pay the interest and sinking fund installments, the bondholders have the right to enforce their claims against the Southern Pa cific Company.
 It is claimed in the bill that the railroads paid interest on bonds and declared dividends when they should have paid interest on the mortgage bonds and the court Is being asked to l decree accordingly
