Amended Form.


Amended Form.
Washington, Feb 18.-Arrangements
having been made by Republican lead
ers OF the senate to smooth out the
creases in the administration plans for
the enactment of postal savings bank
legislation stock is now being taken OF
other bills numbered among the Taft
policies. So far as the senate is con
cerned all of the administration bills
appear to be in good condition except
the federal Incorporation measure and
that to create legislative council for
Alaska.
That Senator Beveridge. who is spon.
sor for the Alaska bill, has agreed to
allow 1t to be displaced as unfinished
business" indicates that he is not en-
tirely sanguine Of success. There has
developed In the senate pronounced OBJ
lection to denying the people Of Alas
ka the right of suffrage, as would be
done by a bill permitting the presi
dent to appoint legislative body.
The Arizona and New Mexico state
hood bill will have early attention
The measure is to be amended by the
senate committee on territories in ac
cordance with the plan recently agreed
upon between the congressional lead
ers and the administration advisers
In thats form 1t is likely to pass the
senate and 1t is probable 1t will be &C.
cepted by the house.
Aooords With Presidents Ideas.
This plan looks to the separation OF
the votes In the two territories on the
acceptance of constitution and the
election of officers, and provides for a
general federal scrutiny of the con.
stitutions that may be adopted. This
accords with the presidents plan, and
It Is asserted he will be thoroughly
satisfied with such an adjustment.
On every hand It Is admitted that
the measure looking to federal action
In chartering corporations will go over
until another session. but the proposed
amendments to the interstate COM
merce law have received decided i'm
petus within the past few days.
The president Is pressing hard for
railroad legislation and even the sen.
ators and representatives of his own
party, who are not entirely convinced
az to the wisdom of all OF the railroad
legislation which he has asked, are in
clined to get on the track and allow
him to have his way In this matter.
It is announced that the special com.
mittee of Western senators, OF which
Senator Smoot is chairman. to which
the administration conservation bills
will be referred, expects to hold day
and night sessions for the purpose oi
expediting work.

PROJECT WILL
GIVE NEW LINE
TO SAN DIEGO
Santa Fe Company Acquires
Half Completed Properties
and viii Soon Have Shorter
Entry Into Southern City.

The c%onjectures and rumors that
the Santa Re was behind the move to-
construct an electric line from San
Diego, cal, to Del Mar several years
ago. now appear to be s%ubstantiated.
The Santa Fe has taken oven the in.
t~erests Of the Keller-Kerckoff com.
pany, which floated the project but
never attempted to complete it. with
the u%ndoubted purpose of securing
a better route into san Diego. and
without which the hundreds Of thou
sands of dollars expended on that line
recently would represent little.
Regarding the latest move of the
Santa Fe to eliminate the bad grades
on the San Diego line, the Union" Of
that city has the following:
With the purpose Of further short
ening its route between san Diego
and Los Angeles the Santa Fe railroad
has acquired the holdings of the Ke-
er-Kerbgoff company, Including the
right of way between Old Town and
the site of the Santa Fe proposed tun-
mel at Sorrento, said to be shorter BIZ
several miles than the present route
in its meanderings over the mountains
across the mesa and through Rose
canyon.
Semi-official announcement by San
Ia Fe officials includes the statement
that the purchase is for the purpose
of providing a direct line from the
tunnel entrance into the city, which
means that Santa Pc trains within a
year or so will come into San Diego
over a new route
Tho nrnCan.a Il, -.,tlau, n.lsFarnfa
of Vice President j. w. Kendriek, in
charge of the operating department Is
evidence that further construction
work on the San Diego line is imnl-
nent. Boring of the Soledad tunnel
it is stated, will shortly begin. The
delay heretofore has been caused by
h necessity of a new right Of way.
The purchase of the kellcr-Kerck-
hotf right Of way. it is stated, was
recommended by the engineer Of con
~struction as the quickest and cheapest
means OF securing the new route. II
is common report hat the Keller
kerckhoff company was a Santa re
adjunct. The construction and en-
cheering offices of the Santa Fe are
maintained in the Kerckhoff building
at Los Angeles.
Deeds filed for record show that
the Keller-Kerckhoff company has
transferred to the Santa Fe certain
tracts of land and strips of land lying
along the water front and paralleling
the present Santa Fe track. The con
.sideration is not stated. II. W. Keller
Of the Keller-Kerckhoff company al

consideration was 81. the cost Of III

nothing of the deal. General Man
