TWO LAY CLAIM TO

Arkansas State Affairs Are

Little Rock. March 13-Two state
senators laid claim to the office of

The resignation of Gov. Joe T. Rob-

for a lieutenant governor, but In the

resigned Chief Oldham took possession
of the governors office. Monday the
senate elected Senator John M. Fu-
trell president pro tempore to act as
lieutenant governor until the legisla-
ture reconvenes two years hence. To-
day the legislature adjourned and Fu-
trell appeared at the governors office
and demanded that Oldham retire in

AMERICAN YACHT
CLUB EXPLAINS
THEIR REFUSAL

New York, March 13.-The New York
Yacht club would have accepted with
pleasure an unconditional challenge for
the cup similar to those which it has
received in the past from the Royal Ulster
Yacht club. and which have resulted in
the three series of matches for the cup
between our respective clubs"
This is, perhaps, the most striking SEN
tence in the reply of the New York Yacht
club declining Sir Thomas Liptons chal-
lenge for races for the Americas cup
in 1914 The clubs objection was centered
upon Sir Thomas Lipton's requirement
that the cup be defended by yacht with
a length on the load water line of not
more than 75 feet, contrary to the terms
of the deed OF gift, which allows a length
of from 65 to 80 feet The reply carries
the resolutions passed at last night S
meeting setting forth that in declining a
challenge by the Royal Yacht club for
Sir Thomas Upton in 1907 the defending
club passed resolutions determining among
other things That's
while the defending club cannot re-
quire that the challenging vessel be of
any given size so long as she is within
the limits permitted by the deed of gift,
it should not consent to any limitation
upon the power or size of the defend
ing vessel other than such as is imposed
by the deed.''
The reply. after declaring that an un-
restricted challenge would have been glad
ly accepted, goes on:
"Our appreciation of the cordial and
harmonious relations which have char
acterized the contests naturally adds to
the reluctance with which we decline your
challenge

MODIFIED PLAN FOR
THE DISSOLUTION OF
MERGER ANNOUNCED
Provides for Traffic Agree
ment Without Trackage
Privileges-To Submit
the Plan to Court

New York. March 13.-The Southern Pa
cihc company. with the concurrence OF tne
Union Pacific Railroad company, TO-DAY
announced a modified plan of dissolution
under the United States supreme court
decree in place of the original plan,
which recently met with serious opposi-
tion on the part of the California rail-
road commission.
The new plan, as outlined by julius
Kruttschnitt chairman of the Southern
Pacific company, substantially provides
for traffic agreement without trackage
privileges to the Union Pacific and Cen
trail Pacific.
Southern Pacific is willing to carry
Union Pacifc-Central Pacific traffic over
the Benca cut off and its California ter
| minals, instead of allowing those roads
direct use of this cutt off and Southern
Pacific terminals.
1.-THE modified agreement" said Mr..
Kruttschnltt. will be submitted to the
circuit court in the st. Louis district on
Saturday and complete details have been
telegraphed to the California commits
sion.'
| The agreement, 1t was stated, has
the approval of Attorney General Nc
| Reynolds. Chairman Kruttschnitts an
nouncement came at the end of a day
of unusual activity at local headquar-
| ters of the Union Pacific and South
ern Pacific lines Some intimation of
| its import became known in stock mar
| ket circles shortly before the close and
Il n,ll llo.l
Hartman shares.
| Robert S. Lovett, chairman of the
Union Pacific, declined to comment on
the new plan, but 1t was intimated a
statement would be issued after a
meeting of Union Pacific directors to-
morrow.
| Failure of the federal court and the
| California commission to accept the
new plan by Saturday midnight will
| involve forfeiture of $1,250,000, which
the Union Pacific agreed to pay an in
ternational banking syndicate organ
| ized by Kuhn, Loeb & Co. to, finance
the sale of its Southern Pacific hold
ings amounting to s125,0oo,00o.
