Hill Confirms Sale of Seattle
Terminals to Harri

HOLDS OUT AT PORTLAND
Cedes Nothing:. Because Has AH Ter

for Kastern " Traffic.
XEW YORK. March 4. (Serial.) The
agreement between James J. Hill and E.
H. Harrimaji regarding the development
plans which they have worked out for
their railroad lines in the Portland and
Fufjet Sound rejrion. to which Mr. Har
riman referred last week while on the
stand hefore the Interstate Commerce
Commission, has already resulted In the
the sale to Mr. Harriman hy Mr. Hitl of
a portion of the Great Northern's ter
minal property at Seattle. Though -prepared
for a lessening of the struggle be
tween the two railroad magnates in the
Northwest, Wall street was surprised to
learn today that Mr. Hill had gone to the
extent reported. , ,
II ill Confirms Seattle Deal.
Mr. Hill himsplf confirmed the state
ment that he had let Mr. Harriman into
the Great Northern's stronghold in Seat
tle. Asked if an agreement had heen
reached with Mr. Harriman in the Seattle-Portland
situation. Mr. Hill said:
'Mr. Harriman wanted a portion of our
terminal property at Seattle. I put a
price upon It and Mr. Harriman accepted
It. The Great Northern has plenty of
room left for expansion in the property
which it "has retained, and there was no
reason for shutting Mr. Harriman out.
T do not wish to be an unpleasant neigh
bor." Yields Nothing at Portland.
Ayked what Mr. Harriman had done for
the Hill lines in Portland in return for
the concession in Soattle. Mr. Hill said:
"We ceded nothing. We had all of our
terminal property in Portland six months
before we started work on our new line."
The old rivalry between the Hill and
Harriman lines in the Northwest, which
was quiescent for a time during the life
of the Northern Securities Company,
broke out afresh about two years ago,
when Mr. Harriman decided to build
north from Portland to Seattle and Mr.
Hill determined upon the construction of
a new line from Spokane into Portland
which would enable him to obtain for the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific a
lot of through traffic which has been
going to the Harriman lines.
Kadi Blocked the Other.
The Hill lines fought Mr. Harriman's
entrance to Seattle, which is their strong
hold in the FuRet Sound section, and Mr.
Harriman attempted to block the Hill
plans by preventing the construction of a'
new line along the north bank of the
Columbia River. Jt was of this fight
that Mr. Harriman said on the stand the
nWicr day that Mr. Hill had attempted to
block his plans and he in turn had fought
the Hill plans.
The importance to the Harriman sys
tem of the concession made by Mr.
Hill la s:id to lie in the fact that Mr.
Hill controlled all the most valuable
waterfront at Seattle and that, out
side of the land which he controlled.
a site for a terminal could be had only
nt enormous cost. The .Great North
ern's Seattle terminal property is said
to be so located that it is practically
In a position to shut out other lines.
Seattle lias grown greatly since the
Great Northern acquired Us land there,
and to replace the land now would
cost. It Is said, many times J10.00J,
000.
Iow Grades on North Bank Line.
The Northern Pacific already had
linu into Portland from the north, but
It was not advantageously situated for
through traffic from Portland for the
East and Middle West. The new line
which is being built down the north
bank of the Columbia River will be
capable of hauling through freight to
great advantage. The maximum grad
on the mountain portion of the line will
be 22 feet to the mile, and for a large
part of the distance the grade will not
be more than about half that. Accord
lng to present plans, this line from
Portland to Spokane, which will have
a 'total length of about 425 miles, will
be , completed early In 190$.
ME? IN THIS CITY TODAY
Hill and Harriman Agent to Pis-
cus Local Terminal Situation.
Much is hoped from a conference of
the directors of the Northern Pacific
Terminal Company, which will be held
today at 1 1 o'clock In the terminal of
fices In the Union Depot. It is ex
pected that steps will be taken to ad
just the present differences between
the Hill and Harriman interests over
the Portland situation and a friendly
settlement of the terminal war is pre
dieted.
C. M. Levey, president of the Port
land & Seattle Railway, who represents
the Hill interests in the terminal com
pany, will arrive from Tacoma this
morning to attend the session. More
is expected from the meeting than the
usual monthly grjst of routine bus!
ness, for Mr. Levey, although a direc
tor of the terminal company, would
hardly attend to assist in closing out
the month's bills and other usual de
tails.
In addition, it is understood there
will be a full attendance of the direc
tors, and railroad officials who are di
recti y interested are hopeful for an
amicable arrangement, which will per
mit the continuation of the projected
improvements on the terminal grounds.
Negotiations' are understood to have
been under way for ' some time, or
practically ever since the failure of
t he Chicago conference between the
Hill and Harriman forces, to, -accom
plish a settlement, looking toward an
arrangement whereby the Hill people
would be satisfied, while thp required
space for the extension of the Harri
son terminals may be secured.. -
These tentative arrangements have
not been without results and the poin
ins now Deen reacnea whereby it is
thought a satisfactory compromise ad
Justment of the pending difficulty may
be made.
It Is Suggested that ' the blocks In
dispute in North Portland, adjoining
the present terminal grounds and
owned by the. Hill people, be surren
dered te the Northern Pacific Terminal
Company w Joint use of all roads
An joying terminal privileges. In re
turn for this concession, it is the belief
of the Hill people that the present
distribution of the stock of the North
ern Pacific Terminal Company, where
by HUI owns only 40 per cent and
Harriman 60 per cent, may be
changed so that, each interest will
hold an equal portion.
Those in the Hill camp seem confi
dent that the property, over which
lawsuits are now raging will never
be surrendered voluntarily, unless an
equal distribution of stock is agreed
to by the Harriman faction. "
C. A. Dolph is president of the ter
minal company, and will preside at the
session today. E. Mallory is secre
tary. Directors who are expected to
attend are J. P. O'Brien. R. Koehler, C.

With Interstate Board.
WASHINGTON, March 4. E. H. Harri
man spent some time in the offices of the
Interstate Commerce Commission today.
The visit was informal, and a variety of
topics were touched upon during his taik
with the Commissioners. There was some
talk about the repair of the break in the
Colorado River, which Mr. Harriman ex
plained to the Commission, referring par
ticularly to the prompt manner in which
the work had been done by the Southern
Pacific Railroad.
Questions of equipment for the rail
roads furnished an interesting topic. Mr.
Harriman expressing preference for the
larger steel car with a capacity of 100,
000 pounds In place of the smaller cars,
especially those of wooden construction.
which, in his opinion, must be relegated
to the background.

"The stringent money market made so

"What has caused tha money strin

GETS RIGHT TO APPEAL
Case Ylll Go to United States Court
on Kequest for Writ of Error.
Two Months in Which to
Perfect Appeal.
SAN FRANCISCO. March 4. In what
his accusers decry as "an effort to ac
complish Indefinite delay of the criminal
proceedings against him." Abraham Ruef
today caused his bondsmen J.o surrender
him to the Sheriff and then went before
Superior Judge Hebbard with an applica
tion for a temporary writ of habeas
corpus in the matter of five felony counts
returned against him by the grand jury.
The writ was granted and made return
able at 1:30 o'clock in the afternoon.
At the hour Judge Hebbard denied the
writ and remanded Ruef to the custody
of the Sheriff, but granted the defend
ant's application for a writ of. errors.
This had the effect of staying the trial
in the Superior Court and enabling an
appeal. Judge Hebbard fixed new bonds
in the total sum of J.W.0OO, and they were
at once furnished by the sureties who
earlier in the day had surrendered Ruc
to athe Sheriff.
This done, Ruefs attorneys made ap
plication to the United States Supreme
Court, through the clerk of the United
States Circuit Court here, for a perma
nent writ of error, which, should it be
granted, would relieve the accused from
further prosecution of the felonies on
which he stands indicted. The necessary
preliminary papers -were issued by the
circuit clerk, and Ruef now has 60 days,
or until Mav 2, in which to prepare to
record an appeal and forward it to wasn
lngton. Ruef bases his appeal to the highest
court in the land on the constitutional
contention, already denied by Sunerior
Judges Dunne and Hebbard in distinct
p-oceedings, that one of the members of
ihe grand Jury by which he was indicted
was disqualified as a grand Juror be
cause he had served as a petty Juror the
preceding year, and that therefore the
indictments are legally void.

Not many people know that In addi

Church in the original thirteen colo
nies, both the Presbyterian and Meth

founded by Irishmen. Philip Embury
founded the Methodist Episcopal sect,
and built the John-street Church in

Makemie. an Irish immigrant, was the
first regularly established Presbyterian
minister in New York, and was known

nounces that she considers this the most successful buying
trip she has ever made.
For over two months Miss Bernard has been diligently
seeking all that was worthy among the new garments, and
comes home full of enthusiasm concerning the new Spring
models in ready-made wear.
Changes are rather marked, and it is generally conceded
that the styles were never so charming as now. Eton suits
are much in evidence among the new arrivals, as well as the
smart, chic little pony jacket suits.
Both plain and fancy figured materials are used, while
the trimmings are more tastefully applied this season than
for many seasons past.
NEW COATS for Spring wear are coming every day,
many of the swagger three-quarter lengths being shown, but
there are also a large number of the ultra-smart little covert
jackets, and short jackets in fancy wool mixtures.
Waists are mostly in the short-sleeved models this sea
son; light-weight materials, of course, are in the majority,
tho we have some charmingly pretty numbers in silks and
mercerized goods.
We'll be pleased to have you call and see the new arrivals
in smart styles. Plenty of them on display in the Second
Floor Suit Salou. Xo trouble to help you decide what style
