TAFT IS ASKED TO
DROP MERGER SUIT
Judge LOvett and Associates in
Hartman System State
Their Attitude

WASHINGTON Jan 11-Setting
forth that the government can not win
the suit for the dissolution of the so
called Hartman lines instituted at
Salt Lake City two years ago, the
ruling spirits of the railroad interests
have made clear their attitude to Of
ficials here. They want the pending
suit discontinued.
This, in short, was the character of
the representations made to President
Taft and several of his advisers at the
conference at the white house yester-
day by Judge Robert s. Lovett, presi-
dent of the Union Pacific and allied
Hartman lines, and his associates.
The statements made by the rail-
road officials will be followed by care
fully prepared written data setting
forth fully the contention of the rail-
road interests. Attorney General
Wickersham and Frank A. Kellogg,
the government trust BUSTER, will
prepare a memorandum for the presi-
dent, arguing their opinion on the
proposition submitted.
The attitude of the administration
can not be stated positively 1t is
said, however, that material conces-
sions will have to be made by the rail
roads from the stand they have taken
if they hope for any relief from the
government, unless their contention
that the Union Pacific and Southern Pa
cific lines are not competitive within
the meaning of the statute is accepted
by the government

for the government in the dissolution
suit, is expected In Washington, when
