RAILROAD ON GRILL;
ATTORNEYS BATTLE
Assert That Comp: zion Cannot Be
Stifed by Concentration and
That Owners Are Unable to
Control Men
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-Two attorneys
representing the government made de-
termined efforts today to induce two
traffic managers of transcontinental
railroads to admit that concentration
of ownership means sitting of compe-
tition in railroad traffic.
The attorneys We're Messrs. Severance
and Kellogg and the traffic managers
were B. c. Stubbs of the Southern Pa
cific and Union Pacific systems and j.
NJ Hannaford of the Northern Pacific
railroad.
Both men contended that despite
consolidation of interest that has taken
place between the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific and between the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern,
competition between lines which are
under joint ownership is as sharp today
as it ever was.
Examination of Mr.. Stubbs covered
all points connected with the story and
told of traffic arrangements of the
Southern Pacific Union Pacific and
many allied lines which are now under
the control of E. H. Hartman.
Mr. Stubbs asserted from first to last
that the Union Pacific had never been
an active competitor of the Southern
Pacific on California business for the
| reason that it had no outlet beyond
Ogden over it's own rails direct to Cali
fornia.
| Such competition he said as had eX-
| listed between the two roads in the past
| is still in existence.
| The Union Pacific he claimed Is but
link in transportation between the
Missouri river and California and not
a separate and Independent line. In his
opinion it had never occupied the lat
ter position so far as through traffic is
concerned.
When asked if he did not believe that
a railroad which has a large surplus
and Is paying 10 per cent dividends is
not in position to favor the pubic with
lower rates than it has in effect at
present, Mr.. Stubbs, with considera BILE
feeling, said that if Union Pacific was
the road under consideration he would
urge members of the interstate COM
merce commission and their attorneys
to remember that, while the Union Pa
cific may be prosperous now it's stock
holders had experienced many lean
years." and that there was no human
guarantee that the present satisfactory
conditions in railroad traffic through
out the country would be indefinitely
maintained.
Upon the subject of sitting competi-
ton Mr.. Stubbs declared that it was
not possible for this to be done. no
matter who owned the parallel lines
under consideration.
Subordinates with regulations to
make or sustain would work for the
interests of their lines against all other
lines, and competition must, therefore,
inevitably follow.
He asserted that j. j. Hill, while
probably the leading railroad man in
the country, could not abolish compe-
tition between the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern because of the spirit of
the men he employs. Mr.. HannafOrd
expressed similar views regarding the
sitting of competition.

SEEK TRACE Of

Lack Of News of Ponce Causes Anx-

BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-No tidings
have been received from the missing
steamship Ponce, which sailed from
Porto Rico for New York on December
26, and anxiety for her safety increases
as the hours pass without news of the
ship.
The Ponce, when she left Porto Rico,
carried seven passengers and a crew
of thirty men. Captain William Har-
vey, whose home is in Brooklyn, where
his wife and two daughters reside, was
in command. The agents of the steam
ship have not abandoned hope that the
vessel will return all right. They be-
lieve that the machinery became dis
abled and that she Is drifting about
the ocean while the engineers are en-
deavoring to effect repairs or that she
has been picked up by some passing
steamer and is now being towed to
some port.
The Ponce was equipped with good
life RATS and boats so that even If
she struck a derelict that caused her
to sink, as some seafaring men fear,
there Ia good chance that those on
board escaped.
The navy department yesterday or
dered Captain Swift of the battleship
Connecticut sailing from Hampton
Roads for Culebra, off the coast OF
Porto Rico. the winter rendezvous OF
the Atlantic fleet. to do everything pos.
stble to traceTthe missing Ponce.
None of the cutters, the Onondagc
from Porto Rico. the Seminole from
Charleston and the Mohawk from New
York dispatched to find her, have yet
reported.
Still another ship was ordered yes
terday to search for the Ponce. Gen
eral Manager Mooney of the New
York and Porto Rico Steamship COM
pany cabled the liner San Juan, a sis
ter ship of the Ponce, sailing yesterday
from Mayaguez to veer from her usual
track and rake the southern water
ways.

that he passed on January 7, fifty
miles below the Delaware breakwater,

unable to obtain good description Of
her because of thick weather.
