Of Croat importance to Portland is thp case to be heard before the Inter state Commerce Commission at Chl caco. February IS. relating to the losing of the Portland gateway to westbound passenger business to Pu net Pound ami other Washington Kints. Harriniun tnterets are the as sessors in the suit and seek to com pel the Northern Pacific to accept tick ets for PuKtt Sound through this Bate way. The Hill road Insists on the long haul from-the territory east of Colorado common points and declines to accept Its pro rata for the ticket If routed through Portland. 'On September 1. 190S. the Northern Pacific consented to the Interchange with the Harrtman lines here of pas senger business to and from Denver, Colorado Springs and west, known as Colorado common points. But In the territory east of these points, the Hill lines Insisted on the long haul and that the business go by Billings. Mont., or St. Paul. Minn. This condition Is believed by "the Harriman lines to work a hardship on travelers from Eastern territory beyond Colorado. Travelers coming this way are compelled to recheck their baggage here to Puget Sound points. In view of the low rates made for the approaching colonist season by the railroads, which have been concurred In by the Hill lines, and the heavy travel expected for the Seattle fair during the Summer months. Portland will. It is believed, lose a large part of this unless the gateway Is opened. In fighting the case, the Harriman llnea have looked up precedents to follow and It will be called to the at tention of the commission that the (ireat Northern accepts business from the O. R. & N from the East at Spo kane, thua taking the short haul, and the Northern Pacific follows a similar policy with the Canadian Pacific. In terchanging transcontinental business at Sumas and accepting through' tick ets and through baggage checking ar rangements. The Northern Pacific also make similar arrangements with the Oreat Northern at Seattle on East ern business. The Union Pacific itself accepts business at Denver on a through basis from the lines centering there. al though the HarrlmHii line has Its own rails between Denver and Omaha and Kansas City.
