GIVES BASIS FOR ATTACKS
ON WESTERN RAILROADS
Lovett Spurns Offers Of Those Claim
ing to Have influence
With Congress.

NEW YORK, June 1S.-Judge Robert 8
Lovett chairman of the Union Pacific
Company issued Il long statement in
effect that the Union Pacific and South
ern Pacific authorities have been ap-
preached by various persons unnamed
protesting to have influence with Con-
gress which they would bring to bear in
the matter of the Union Pacific-Southern
Pacific dissolution proceedings provided
the railroad people employed certain law
yers.
He added that these offers were in
variably rejected. as the result of which
presumably many rumors were circu-
lated rejecting on the Union Pacific
Southern Pacific management and mo-
tives.
With reference to the proposed deal
with the Pennsylvania railroad, whereby
the Union Pacific was to trade $3S, O00. DOC
of Southern Pacific stock in return for
stock of the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road of substantially the same value.
Judge Lovett explained that there was
mo desire on the part of the Union Pa
cific to control the Baltimore and Ohio, u
adding that If such control resulted ii
would be merely incidental" The ex-
change, if consummated, he said, would
give the Union Pacific about 3S per cent
of Baltimore and Ohio stock.
Judge Lovett secuted the idea that the
proposed deal with the Pennsylvania was
a forerunner to bringing that road, the
Union Pacific the Southern Pacific and
the Baltimore and Ohio under the con-
troll of one banking house.

STATESMEN AT CAPITOL
SHED THE FROCK COAT
Warm Weather Drives Them to
Linen, Crash and Other
Light Fabrics.

Although nothing hot was projected
in the legislative line in the House of
Representatives yesterday, all the big
democrat statesmen and two or three
or the standpatters on the republican
side dtked themselves out in the habili-
ments of troPic cline, and made the
sweating tourists in the galleries boil
with envy. Statesmen who are wear
ers Of the traditional frock coat and
wide-brimmed black sombrero in the
fall and winter appeared in clothing
which was modelled after the way
mint julep tastes. For instance. Rep
resentative Padgett of Tennessee, who
has somber ideas about clothing, cast
aside all precedent and appeared in
silk suit of light fawn color which
weighs about six ounces. Alongside
of him for few moments sat Frank
Clark of Florida, newly appointed
chairman of the public buildings and
grounds committee. in a linen coat and
linen trousers, minus vest
Mr.. Booher of Missouri, black coated
most of the year. fell into warm
weather rhapsody yesterday and ar
rayed his form in brown crash. Repre-
sentative Sherley, one of the first to
take to unlined stuff in hot weather,
showed up IN Whlte SnOeS ana Drown
linen, while Judge Adamson of Georgia,
chairman of the interstate and foreign
commerce committee, looked like a
millionaire planter in a pure white suit
of duck and a billed shirt that wrinkled
in ten thousand directions.
Representative Fitzgerald, chairman
of the appropriations committee. was
arrayed in Brooklyn's finest linen. light
brown In color, and as cool as the re-
lations between upstate New York
democrats and the Tammany clan. His
necktie was OF extremely delicate blue.
while next to him sat Representative
Henry George. jr.. in an aristocratic
suit of unlined blue serge. while q
wash tie Of Alice blue fell in delicate
lines from his single-tax neck.
Representative Anthony of Kansas,
seven feet high, almost. wore brown
crash. and so did his colleague. Rep
resentative Campbell. Ben johnson OF
Kentucky, in a light brown homespun
and a red tie, held up the honor of the
District committee for summer stuff,
while Representative KOrbley of In
diana, in linen crash. did the same job
for the banking and currency commit
tee Jack" Garner of Texas. the
champion of high tariff on goat hair,
and who once said that few people
"have mohair on their back" appeared
In linen. and Taylor Of Colorado looked
like a large order of vanilla ice cream
in his pure white suit. Representative
Alexander, chairman Of the merchant
marine committee. wore linen, and s.
did Representative Wingo Of Arkansas.

HUNTINGTON, w. Va, March g.
That race suicide has had no place in
the simple life'' of John Haviland, aged
seventy -four, a rugged mountaineer. was
proved here today, when the hardy old
man arrived at the Chesapeake and Ohio
depot with his fifteen children and twen-
ty grandchildren and casually inquired
of the ticket agent if he had any idea
where he O1aviland) could get a job.
The old mountaineer volunteered the
information that among the members
of the family he had brought along with
him there We're about fifteen husky
youngsters who could give a good ac-
count of themselves at any kind of la
Dor.
When surprise was expressed at the
number of children and grandchildren
who had accompanied Haviland in his
search for a position, the mountaineer
chuckled and said:
Huh, / left thirty-seven great-grand-
children back there in the mountains. Ie

Too Many to Run the Farms.
The old man volunteered the informa-
ton that they had too many boys and
girls at home to run their mountain
farms, and as they needed money to buy
agricultural implements, seeds and cloth
ing, he thought it best to bring part OF
the family down to the city and put them
to work instead of having them idle time
away back in the Guyan ridge of the
Alleghenies.
Old Haviland, who is hale and hearty
as q result of the life spent IN the vast
nesses of Mingo county, declared that he
would himself secure a position here, so
that he can watch over his flock.

grandchildren accompanying Haviland
