LOVETT ATTACKS
WESTERN PACIFIC

OMAHA, Feb. 22.-'fThe Western
Pacific is a lame duck" said Robert s.,
Lovett, chairman of the board of the
Union Pacific railway, who passed
through Omaha this evening en- route
from san Francisco to ST. louis
Judge Lovett declared his belief that
the owners of the Western Pucific rail
way were trying to unload the prop
erty on the Union Pacific and were at
tempting to take advantage Of Califor-
MIA conditions to force his road to take
over the property,
The plan approved by Attorney Cen
eral Wickersham for unmerging the
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific
roads will come up before United States
Circuit Judges Sanborn, Hook, Smith
and Adams in St Louis Monday and
will be presented by Judge Lovett. He
expressed 4 fear that in the event Of the
California commission IS failing to ap-
prove the rights of the Central Pacific
TO California terminals. which are SO
vital to the general scheme of unmerg
ing the two systems, that tho whole
plan might fail.
Speaking of the Western Pacific and
its contentious before the California
railroad commission, Judge Lovett said:
"The Western Pacific is lame duck,
It has been q very Improbable venture
for those who built it and for those who
hold its securities. believe they would
like to sell it TO tho Union Pacific. They
see that if the present plan is approved
by the court and the Union Pacific ac.
ouires the Central Pacific all hope of
unloading the Western Pacific on the
Union Pacific will be gone, I believe
it is for that reason alone that they
are opposing the present plan, 1t is
simply an effort on the part OF. the own
ers of the Western Pacific to use the
California condition TO further this OBJ
iect
"The tracks and terminals in ques-
tion belong TO the Central Pacific and
to the Southern Pacific and the Western
Pacific has not the shadow of right or
title To their use.
''I am bound to believe. therefore,
they are merely trying to get the Cali.
fornIa railroad commission to impose
terms aud conditions so unjust as to de-
feat the plan and thus leave the West
ern Pacific some hope of making n trade
with the Union Pacific. But that hope
apparently has little basis. since the
Union Pacific and Central Pacific are
natural connections and We're built un-
der acts of congress as a continuous
system from the Missouri river to the
Pacific ocean,
Judge Loyett arrived in his special
car from San Francisco. accompanied by
President Mohler Of the Union Pacific,
He expressed satisfaction with the gen
eral plan approved by Attorney General
Wicliarsham for divorcing the Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific and be-
lieved the circuit court would make a
decree approving 1t. He remained in tho
city less than an hour, his car being at.
