PORTLAND. Ore.. Oct. 7.
John F. Stevens, for eight years
ehlef engineer of the Great North
ern railroad and for a time chief
engineer of the Panama Canal,
was a witness for the Northern
lines In the Klamath Falls rail
hearing today.
Stevens was chief engineer and
later president of the Hill rail
roads that Included the Spokane,
Portland and Seattle, the Oregon
Trunk, Oregon Klectrlo and Unit
ed ralways. He stated before
Charles Mahaffle, representing
the Interstate commerce commis
si an In the application of the
Oregon Trunk to build from
Bend to Klamath Falls. ' that
James J. Hill Intended to build to
Klamath Falls, whea he atarted
the Una np the Deschutes river
valley.
The famous engineer declared
that In 1909, Hill called him In
to tell of Ihe proposed new road
In Oregon.
"I want to get Into Southern
and Central Oregon with a first
class railroad," Hill was Quoted
as telling 8teven. "I don't mean
a logging road, but a real, first J
clans rsiiroaa.
Stevens said he told his chief
that the only way to do this was
to build up the Deschutes river.
Hill replied that he wished to
tap the rich timber country In
Central and Southern Oregon to
get that business for his lines.
"The general plan Mr. HID had
was to build up through the Des
chutes valley and to extend on
Into Klamath Falls, the dotalls
being left to me," Stevens said.
The major object of this road
was to get the timber business, Ihe
next to develop the country."
Mistake to Stop At Band.
Stevens said he had several con
ferences with Julius Kruttachnilt,
representing the E. H. Harrlman
lines, regarding building a Joint
linn up the Deschutes when It was
seen Ihe Union Pacific was deter
mined tn build.
I wanted to save Ihe expense of
building two lines up the De
schutes," testified Stevens. "f
wanted to unltn but could not get
any where with them. Kruttachnilt
was not very amiable, tn say Ihe
least. He told me I was bluffing,
that the only way I could get np
the Deschutes wss to walk because
I had nn backing. I took my hat
and said 'goodbye'."
''VVTmt kind of a road did you
build?" was asked.
"I would call the Oregon Tnink
a splendid second class road as I
built It. And It was a mlslakn to
stop where It did."
"Do you think it Is In Ihe public
Interests now lo go nn with the
rosd to Klamath Falls?"
"Most certainly."
"Why did you stop?" he was
asked on crnsa-examlnallnn.
I do not know whyMr. Hill de
cided lo stop. I renelved Instruc
tions from him tn ston when we
reached Rend owing to business
conditions then existing."
Stevens stated he has no Inter
est with the Hill lines now. He
also slated that he had loved
James J. Hill like a father.
"In WIS. three months before
Mr. Hills drslh, he was In New
Ynrk and sent for me tn visit him,"
continued Ihe veteran engineer.
'John, we've snt to go ahead
and finish that tine Into Klamath
Falls as soon as we can,' aald Hill.
The nther railroads have a great
lot of money lo spend and we must
spend some but will have to wait
until conditions settle. It looks
now as though It will lake all the
money In Ihe I'nltid Stales to lick
the Germans'."
O. B. Diddle, statistician for Ihe
Spoksne, Portlsnd and Seattle was
nn Ihe aland a short time today.
He read a mass nf figures, showing
that the first year Ihe Oregon
Trunk extension from Bend to
Klamath Falls wss operated It will
show a deficit of 1121.000. but that
