INDIAN OFFICE APPROVES Sc
LECTION OF SITE FOR NEW
FLATHEAD HEADQUARTERS. 4
LOCATION IS CENTRAL
Buildings viii Cost Forty Thousand
Dollars and Viii Be Erected on the
East Side Of the Pond d'orsiIls
River About one Mile North Of tho
Town Of Dixon.

Washington, March 15.-(Special.)-
The Indian office has finally approved
the report of the inspector who was
sent to the Flathead agency some
months ago to select the site for the
construction of the new Flathead
agency buildings. E%
After thorough reconnaissance of
the Flathead country and only with the
view of securing a central location Tor
administrative purposes. the Inspector
recommended the purchase Of an In
dian allotment on the east side of the
Pend dOreille river about one mile
north of the town of Dixon Eight
acres has already been purchased from
an Indian and plans and specifications
are completed at the Indian bureau for
the new agency buildings. Work will
be begun within the next few weeks.
The inspectors report shows that
the new location will be centrally sit
uated Tor dealing with the somewhat
scattered Indian allotments.
The immediate construction of the
branch line Of the Northern Pacific
from Dixon to Roman and possibly on
to Poison viii put the agent in direct
touch with Indian allotments in the
vicinity of Roman. The east and west
line of the Northern Pacific will place
the new agency in close touch with the
Indians allotted around Arlee and the
old agency and will be much easier Of
access to the Indians allotted on the,
west side of the Pend d'Oreille river
aMore than a year ago Senator Dix
n5obtained an appropriation Of SAC, 900
for the rebuilding of new agency
buildings at such convenient place as
the Indian bureau might select for that
purpose" and after full investigation
OF the situation by an inspector, the
site near Dixon was recommended by
the inspector and the transfer of title
was recently made.
THE construction of the new agency
buildings will be under the open con-
tract plan of the. Indian office It
is the intention of the Washington ,bu-
rfau to have much Of the lumber
sawed and dressed by the Indians
themselves at the new saW1nill and
planer now being built at the old
agency from timber cut from the re-
served Indian lands.
When completed the new Flathead
agency will be one of the most up-to-
date. plants in the northwest

PLAN
IS NOT PUSHED
BY L0VETT
DiSAPPROVAL OF CALIFORNIA
BOARD CAUSES UNMERGlNG
SCHEME TO COLLAPSE.

St. Louis, March 15.-The Union
Pacific Southern Pacific dissolution
plan, which contemplated a preferen-
tial traffic agreement between the
two Hartman roads for the use of the
Benicia CUTOFF from Oakland to Sac
ramento, was abandoned in the fed
eral court here today by the Hartman
interests, and it now devolves on the
railway attorneys and the attorney
general to devise a new scheme to
carry into effect the dissolution de-
cree Of the federal supreme court.
The dissolution decree, which was
certified to the district court of Utah
on February 10, gave the railroads
three months to submit a plan to the
lower court. This time limit will ex-
pire on May 10.
No date was set by the judges of
the Eighth federal circuit, sitting as
the district court of Utah today, for
the ~rehearsing of the case.
What agreement the railway COM
panies contemplate was not men
toned by Chairman Rovert S. Lovett,
of the Union Pacific system, who an
nounced the abandonment of the plan
in court today.
A Surprise.
The abandonment of the plan came
as a surprise, as Mr.. Lovett and other
attorneys came here fully expecting
to present the dissolution arrangement
to the circuit judge for approval.
After his arrival Mr.. Lovett received
a copy of the protest filed by the Cal
iforna railroad commission. Realiz-
ing that the approval of the Cali
fornia commission was necessary to
validate the proposed lease of the
Central Pacific by the Southern Pa
cific, which in turn was necessary to
satisfy certain French banking inter-
ests, Mr. Lovett announced that the
Union Pacific could not go on with
the nlan.
1t is understood that by the coll
lapse of today's plan the Union Pa
cific forfeits upward of million dol
lars to a banking syndicate.
