Federal Protection.

Austin, Tex, Feb. 26.-Governor
Colquitt, when informed that war de
partment officials In Washington had
ordered United States troops sent to
Brownsville, said:
THE statement from Washington
shows a ridiculous lack of informa-
ton and lack of understanding of

from the sheriff and county Judge of
Cameron county ! talked to General
Steever at Fort Sam Houston over
the long distance telephone and asked
him If he could send relief to Browns
ville He said he could not unless he
had instructions from Washington to
do so.
"Then / gave orders for the state
troops to process there and | told
General Steever that intended to do
So"

Dissolution Plans.
TURNS DOWN REQUEST

State Railway Commission Denies Ap-
plcation of the Union Pacific for
Long Lease of a Southern Pacific
Connecting Line.
San Francisco, Feb. 26.-Open COM
petition between the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific railways, the two
great component parts of the Harri-
man system, and no favors from one
to the other because of their past con-
nection, ara the only terms under
which the California state railroad
commission will approve the steps now
being taken in compliance with the
United States supreme court order for
dissolution.
In a decision handed down bearing
on the situation Of the two roads in
California the commission denied the
application of the Union Pacific for
s90-year lease of the Southern Pacific
connecting line between Oakland and
Sacramento, wnown as the Benicia
short line, and further declared that
wherever the Southern Pacific grant
ed the Union Pacific's subsidiary In
California, the Central Pacific, joint
use of it's terminal facilities and indus
try tracks, 1t should grant the same
privileges TO any other competing line
on similar terms.
Western Pacific Upheld.
Western Pacific railroad attorneys
demanded equal rights with the Cen
trail Pacific for their road and were
upheld in each instance in the de-
cision.
The ruling OF the commission was
telegraphed Immediately to Attorney
General Wickersham at st. Louis,
where the dissolution plans are being
considered In federal court.
The telegram contained a strong
criticism OF the plans as previously
agreed upon In Washington between
Attorney General Wickersham and the
railroad officials and another method
OF bringing about the dissolution is
suggested. Instead of forcing the
Southern Pacific to sell the Central
Pacific line from Ogden to San Fran
cisco the commission recommends the
Central Pacific be leased for a long
term OF years to the Union Pacific,
thus making through line for the
Union Pacific from Omaha to San
Francisco.

called to the great aid given the farm
ers by the various birds which eat so
many harmful insects which are cost
