THE MORNING OEEGOXIAN, SATURDAY, JVSB 17, 1905. 8 CLARK SPEAKS UP Says He Has No Quarrel With Harriman. TROUBLE IS OVER TRAFFIC .Relations Between San Pedro Road, and Southern Pacific 31erely Strained Clark In Xo "Way Injured. BUTTE, Mont.. June 13. Senator W. A. Clark today issued a signed statement In regard to the existing relations "between himself and E. H. Harriman with re spect to the traffic arrangements of the San Pedro, Salt Lake & Los Angeles Rail road and the Southern Pacific Railroad. Senator Clark says: "There has been no disagreement be tween Mr. Harriman and myself, and our relations have been of the most harmoni ous character. A disagreement between the traffic managers of the respective roads concerning interchange of business in Southern California -will be considered in New York vory soon by the executive committee, and I am confident it will be satisfactorily adjusted." Senator Clark makes a vigorous denial of certain statements that have been pub lished in regard to him, as follows: "First,, the discovery that I have been tricked in any manner; second, the dec laration on my part of a fight to the bit ter end; third, disagreement as to the construction of branch roads; fourth, stipulations that would prevent either party from building branches south of Salt Lake. The general policy agreed upon is to build branches whenever -permanent business will warrant it. The statement that I had Joined forces with other parties to build a branch line from Las Vegas to Tonopah, and that the Har riman Interests were credited with having secured control of the stock of the new road, and also control of the Salt Lake terminus, which would probably result in my retirement, is absolutely false." to resume his duties as the pastor of the Hassalo-Street Congregational Church He will occupy his pulpit Sunday morn ing.

The suit against the three Kansas City shippers is Intended to cover the shippers of the state as a class, and the order of the court against them will restrain them from bringing action against the railways under the law.

Hfltnphreys. local engineer is arje at HUinath Fans, Or., that br June 13 fully 5 per cent of lh landowners under taat project will have signed contracts to take water under the proposed Gov trnisent canals. This prompt action on tUe part of the landholder Is the result of ntle oeryed on them by Mr. Lipplncott a short time ago. when several of the number maMroted elgni of cnwilllncsets to comply with the terms proposed by the Govern ment, that until at least per cent of them had signed, not a shovel of dirt would tamed and not a dollar expended out ot the allotment made by the Secretary of the Interior. Another factor that has worked In the lalerest f the Klamath project haa be-n Uv railroads Interested, especially California railroad-. Representatives of th South ern Pacific and men Interested tin the road to be built from Weed. CaL. to Klamath BaMn. mingled among the landowner and toM them that the Government would not build until they had sbmed. and added that no railroad would be built unless the Government commenced construction. Considerable Interest was aroused In this man ner, with the result Indicated. As soon as a full 80 per cent of the landowners affected have met tho requirements proposed by the Government, steps will be taken to commence construction along tinea already roughly outlined. California, and Kansas City railroad Interests are projecting the railroad from "Weed. Cal which will penetrate the country to be reclaimed In California and Oregon, and there I prospect that the line will txs extended still further Into Oregon, to tap the country which l likely to be Irrlrated under other projects'. The road will be built from Weed. In Shasta Valley. CaJ.. into Klamath Basin, a dfetanc- of 65 miles. It will connect with the Southern Pacific at Weed, and will make fan Francisco an important point of tupp? for thn Irrigated region. Portland wilt be reached almost as readily as San KrancUco over this propoeed road, but the promoters expect that the great belle of trade will go to the Golden Gate. This read Is declared by officials of the Reclamation Service to be a bona-flie project, and It la understood preliminary work has already been begun. T.4S T-48N. 47 46 K L AMA T H C 0 U.N T Y " -f .
