Magnates Of the Hartman lines met in
the general offices Of the Oregon Short
Line yesterday and elected officers for
the principal Hartman corporations, ex-
cept the Oregon Short Line Railroad COM
pany. Officers for this corporation will
be elected today.
The meeting developed the fact that
Alexander Millar and Judge r. S. LOYett
are the directing heads of the Hartman
corporations since the death Of E. II Har-
Timan.
Joseph F. Smith of Salt Lake was re-
elected a director Of the Union Pacific
Railway company.
A fact revealed by the meeting is that
the Hartman lines will have no quarrel
with the Chicago, Milwaukee * Puget
Sound tganscOntinental railroad, for the
Rockefellers and others are large stock
holders in both roads. The three trans
continental lines, Southern Pacific (Sun-
set Route, Union Pacific and Chicago,
Milwaukee a. Puget Sound, as well as
many branch lines. are now really atfill-
ated lines, although President A. j. Earl
ing of the Milwaukee is the only officer
of that road who is in the Hartman di-
rectOTate.
