Conditions There Are Encouraging,
 According to E. H. Hartman.
 New York. Sept. i6.--E. II. Harri- man returned here after an absence of seven weeks. during which time he inspected the Union Pacific md South. ern Pacific railways. He said the con. ditlons in the territory covered were particularly favorable in business way. Crops wereggod in the west. and trade was good old improving out there.
 Speaking of the political situation, Mir. Hartman said he found gen. eral apathy In the west.
 Mir. Hartman declared there was nothing in the oft repeated rumor of holding company for the Union Pa cific and Southern Pacific properties and that no immediate financing was contemplated for those lines.
 Why have the stocks of Union Pa cific and Southern Pacific been so ex- ceedingly strong recently" somebody asked.
 Because they were too weak be- fore,' was Mir. Harriman's quick re- ply.
 Mir. Hartman said he favored an in- crease in freight rates only to help the weaker railroads. which are in low physical state and cannot hope to im- prove their condition unless they get better returns. Speaking for his own lines. MT. Hartman declared that peO- pie along the Union Pacific and South ern Pacific are today getting 100 per cent better service at 25 per cent less cost than they got six or seven years ago.
 "The outcome of the election makes no difference to us one way or the oth- er," said MT. Hartman. "As long as we keep our balance in the. banks we don't care who is elected"
 Mir. Hartman asserted many times that he knew nothing about politics and cared nothing for it. "I purpose to do what there is to be done ire spective of administrations" he said.
