FOR RIGHT OF WAY
Whittemore Details Story OF
Fight Between Clark and
Hartman
Rivalry Over Salt Lake Route
That Resulted in the
Amaiganation

LOS ANGELES. May &c. o. Whit
Lake railroad, detailed the story of
the fight between the Clark and the
Hartman interests in his testimony
in the United States district court
today at the hearing of the govern
ment's suit to dissolve the merger of
the Hartman railroads. 1t was brought
out that the Salt Lake railroad origin
ally was organized by Senator Clark
and his associates as an independent
railroad. None of the details of the
agreement by which the Salt Lake was
merged with the Hartman properties
was given.
c. A. Severance represented the gov
eminent. and w. r. Kelley. general
counsel for the Salt Lake, represented
the Hartman roads. ]. Ross Clark,
second vice president of the Salt Lake
road, and t. E. Gibbon, former general
counsel, were the only witnesses ex-
amined today The hearing will be
resumed in New York, June 10.
Whittemore told of the struggle for
the right of way from the Nevada Utah
line through the Meadows valley.
which led to amalgamation of the two
interests. He said the Salt Lake rail-
road was incorporated March 20, 1901,
the incorporators having previously ac-
quired the Los Angeles Terminal rail-
way and right of way claims of the
Utah and California railroad in the
vicinity of what is now known as CAL
iente, New.
Gibbon, in his testimony, reviewed
interesting western railroad history.

POSTPONE SPOKANE,
RATE CASE ORDER
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Delays Time When Re-
ductiOn Becomes Effective
Railroads Plan to Put Into Eli
feet New Glass" Tariff
July

WASHINGTON. May 15.-As re-
suit of several conferences the inter-
state commerce commission today an
nounced a postponement from June 1
to July / as the time for taking effect
of it's decision in what is known as the
Spokane wheat rate cases. A further
hearing of the case will be had
June 9.
The commission recently had post
poned until January L the time when
the new rates ordered by it should go
into effect. but as the result of con-
ferences within the last few days
with representatives of the Hill and
Hartman interests, it was today de-
cided further to postpone the opera
ton of the order until July l.
The railroads involved-the North
ern Pacific, the Great Northern, the
Union Pacific, the Oregon Railroad
Short Line and the Chicago and
Northwestern-were today notified of
the decision and also of the assign
ment of the case for hearing June 8.
The railroads will, on July 1, put
into effect, in accordance with the de-
cision of the commission. what are
known as "class" rates from Pacific
coast points to Spokane, which are
16 2-3 per cent lower than the pres
ent rates. They also will put into
effect at that time the commodity
rates from the east to Spokane, which
are much lower than the present rates,
but not as low in proportion as those
ordered by the commission.
The purpose of the proposed hear
ing is to allow any possible objection
that may be made to the filing OF the
rates on short time notice.

PELLAGRA TERROR TO
NASHVILLE PEOPLE
Doctors Disagree About Infection
Disease at orphanage Under
Control.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 14.-Resi-
dents of the neighborhood of Della
ware anvenue and First street, West
Nashville, are so terrorized at the raw
ages of pellagra among the inmates
of the Baptist Orphans Home that
the children are kept behind closed
doors and mothers watch the approach
of strangers as If pestilance brooded
over the city.
Only within the last week or ten
days has the excitement grown to it's
present intensity, although the pella-
gra has infected the orphanage for a
long time and is now well under con-
troll, with very slight chances for
spread Of the disease, even if it is
capable of this. Here the doctors
have disagreed. DR. j. A. Albright,
secretary of the state board of health,
though not committed to the belief, is
of the orinion that the disease is COM
municable by infection. His theory is
shared by several others, among whom
are DR.. J. M. King, a prominent local
skin specialist. who has treated the
cases for more than a year.
The physicians here all agree that
TO rr King is due the credit for MAX
ing the original diagnosis of the mala-
dy. In an article published in the
November number of the Southern
Medical Journal last fall, Dr. King
dealt directly with the cases at the
orphange, and as to the diseases
transmission wrote:
1.-THE method of transmission is not
understood. 1t is not believed to be
contagious but cases of conjugal pella-
gra have been reported. With refer
ence to this report the disease may be
traced to one inmate or to one family, |
about whom very little can be learned |
previous to their entrance to the home. |

boys, Roy M, is the most aggravated

case in the home. 1t seems that some
thing has been kept in reserve by the
family-whether the father or mother
were affected is not known. To say
the least, under observation of this
home, the disease has spread from this
family. Annie NJ, waited on Addie
NJ, during her sickness.
Sambon after reviewing the re-
search work up to 1905, states taht the
disease probably is protozal It may
be that maize, damaged or sound
furnishes the habitat for the organism
il Italy and in other parts. while il
may be conveyed on some other arti-
Gle of fcod in other parts of the world,
for in some sections where the dis
ease is prevalent maize is used but
little as an article of food"
Tomorrow is the day set for the
official and expert examination OF the
disease, provided DR.. c. H. Lavinder
the government expert, in charge of
pe'lagra investigations arrives in the
city. DR.. Albright was Informed by
wire yesterday from Washington that
Dr. Lavinder had been notified at
Columbia, S. c., where he is expert
menting with some cases in one of
the Carolina institutions. He will wire
DR.. Albright when he expects him
but will in all probability get here
early tomorrow.
The patients will not be removed
from their isolation at the orphanage
until after the investigation to be con-
Quoted by Drs. Lavinder, King, Tucker
and Albright. This done, they will be
taken to a building ready near the
smallpox hospital.

GREAT PROSPERITY is DUE.

Ny. George w. Perkins, one of the
partners of J. Pierpont Morgan and
director in many great financial
hor ses, who is making a temporary
visit to this city on his way to Alaska
with a party of friends, has this to
say of the present business outlook;
within three, certainly not over four,
months the West will be enjoying the
return of prosperity which has come
to the East within the last sixty days"
This part of the West has been en-.
joying a substantial degree of prosper
ity for considerable length of time.
Business of every kind has been good,
with the sole exception of the lumber
ing industry which Mr.. Perkins speci-
fically refers in his prediction of re
turning good times. The East has got
back to normal conditions, or is rap
idly doing so, and from this time for
ward there will be rapid revival of the
demand for lumber. When the steel
iluuoliy Is SOOu the lumDer industry
is good, as Mr.. Perkins puts it. Ac-
cepting Mr.. Perkins prediction at par.
it would appear as though the return.
ing prosperity which he predicts will
be something to dwarf all previous
records in that direction. In this
state the wheat harvest has Just com.
menced. When it is ended there will
be something like 100000 bushels
of wheat to sell at the highest harvest
price seen for many a year. Every
other farm crop in the state promises
to be large. This is the year, also,
when great run of salmon is due.
and the canneries are already figuring
that their output will be so great that. |
to avoid breaking the market, it will
be well to hold a portion over until |
next year, when the run will be small. |
Now if the numbering industry will
get back to it's best stages as it prob
IDLY will it will require some conserv-
ltive caution to prevent the great
of the state bringing on a
dangerous boom.-Seattle Post-Intelli-
;encer.
