Seattle, March 2. Charles 14. Levey, assistant' to the president; Thomas Cooper, general manager; J. M. Hanna ford, vice-president and traffic man passenger agent; E. A. Law, assistant ager; A. D. Charlton, assistant general general superintendent, and ft. Q. Ful ton, assistant general passenger, agent make up a party of Northern Pacific officials which cunt to Seattle yester terday to look over the terminal facil ities here and acquaint Mr. Levey with the Northern Pacific's local interests and the people of this city. This Is Mr. Levey first trip over tb prop. ertle he will administer and the parfy will spend another day or two visiting different parts of the city where rail road work U In progress. There will not be time for -the pnrty to make a run over the line from Set tle to the boundary nor will the patty make a trip to Portland. The St Paul officials will return to their home Thursday and the Portland officers of the road will probably go south at the same time. Mr. Levey will take charge of his Tacoma offices within a day or two. Back of a simple announcement made yesterday by the party Is a promise for the Inauguration of work on the new Union depot The Northern Pacific will begin, it was stated, within 30 dayg on the work of erecting new freight sheds on the land newly filled In south of King street . These sheds will be 1000 feet In length and, about fifty feet In width. They are to be used In the place of the old freight sheds, COO feet long and 80 feet wide. , As soon as the Northern Pacific , completes Utis work the Oreat Northern will erect Its new freight sheds and then the new union lassenger depot will be built v During a conference yesterday 'after noon with city 'officials and railroad engineers the party went over the plans for filling In Western avenue from Union to Columbia Btreet. The Northern Pacific Is a' heavy property owner In this district and It was prom laed by the party that no objection would be Interposed to the work. The question of filling In Railroad avenue and building a sea wall was canvassed, but the Northern Pacific of ficials gave no Intimation of the prob able position they would assume. Unfavorable weather made it Impos sible for Mr. Levey and bis party to Inspect local terminal facilities yerter day, but this will be attempted today. In the event the ground cannot be cov ered in a single day more time will be given to ths work. BOYCOTT OF RAILROADS BY SPOKANE CAUSES RUMPUS "El Mocho Recalled. . New York, March 2.

The World's Fair Rout. Those anticipating an eastern trip, or a visit to the Louisiana Purchase exposition at St-Louis, cannot afford to overlook the advantages offered by the Mlsswi Pacific Railway, which, on account of Its various routes and gate ways, has been appropriately named "The World's Fair Route." Passengers from the northwest take the Missouri Pacific trains from Den ver op Pueblo, with the choice of either going direct through Kansas City, or via Wichita, Fort Scott and Pleasant Hill. . , Two trains dally from Denver and Pueblo to St Louis without change, carrying all classes of modern equip ment, including etectrlo lighted obser vation parlor cafe dining cars.

Traffic officials of i . the Northern Pacific and Great North ern are inclined to believe the Spokane boycott against these two roads will wear" Uself out In a short time. Rail road men say that the fight has the merit of a just complaint, and that prominent shippers will not remain tied up to the agreement to fight the two systems. The Spokane shippers are insisting upon a flat reduction of rates from eastern points to'. Spokane, so as to make the rates on different commodi ties the terminal rate plus 25 per cent. of the local between Seattle or Port land and Spokane. Until this rate is granted the shippers declare they will patronize the Oregon Railroad ft Navi gation Company, to the exclusion of the Great Northern and Northern Pa cific. : ; A number of Spokane jobbers have been tied up to an agreement on this question and have already canceled or ders for cars to be sent west over the two northern lines. Other shippers are declaring an intention to enter the agriTnent. The movement is as near ly general as any other anti-ratlroad light that ha been made in Spokane. Not all the shipments from eastern point to Spokane are controlled by the shipper of the Inland city. Such a Spokane does not control, railroad men say, will be routed as In the past and they confidently believe that there will be a large percentage of shippers that will not take up the fight. The boycott movement of Spokane shippers originated at a time when all the coast traffic men of rate-making authority were in Chicago attending the meeting of the freight bureau that controls western traffic matters. These traffic men have just returned to find a war has been started against, them. They express a feeling of resentment that they were not first consulted and show a disposition to believe that the movempnt was started without knowl edge of the real pituailon. . Th Chicago meeting was called for the- purpose of harmonizing a number of rate disagreements. When the new commodity tariff of January lg went into effect rates on shipments to coast points were changed, and in many In stances the old to Spokane prevailed TheChlcago meeting was expected to correct this. . , " In taking care of the Chicago charges the traffic men mads a large number of concessions to Spokane, extending to that city carload rates that had not been granted in the past and otherwise reducing charges on many commodities. The reductions vere, of courge, propor tionate cuts, for Spokkane folt the ef fect of the new tariff as well as the coast cities. The difference between terminal and Spokane rates was mini mized. . Railroad men say that early and un authentic, reports that Spokane had, been ignored by the freight bureau really caused the trouble. In any event the shipper were gotten together and tied up in an agreement not to patronize ihe northern lines. It was declared this kind of a pledge would "compel the Great Northern and North ern Pacific to grant the requested con cessions. The question is one the traffic men -will not handle. It has been passed up ' to the executives of the northern lines, ' and an Immediate announcement ' of ' policy is one that cannot be made. Under the circumstances traffic men ' feel a hesitancy about discussing the' situation. The following explanation, ' however, was given yesterday by a prominent railroad official: , ' " , "There Is no Justiee in the position ; taken by Spokane. We should nave oeen consuiiea neior anyming was done, and I believe had the shippers known that Spokane received many concessions from the Chicago meeting no trouble would have occurred. In-' stead of sending a committee to in vestigate, the shippers announced ' the boycott and began the fights As I understand it the Spokane ship pers themselves are not a unit in their demands. It stands to reason that cer tain commodities where water compe tition Is generally acknowledged can not take a terminal rate at Spokane. Some of the Inland shippers realize this, while those directly interested . hold out for a reduction in charges. Spokane is taking a rather selfish position, too. There is no reason why ' that city alone of inland Jobbing cen ters should have the special rates. Of course, Spokane is now the largest Job bing center In eastern Washington, but there will be other good towns there, and we should not be compelled to dis criminate in favor of Spokane alone.' That city asks us to protect it in the jobbing trade north of the Snake river and insists upon concessions we should not be asked to make. The jobbers at Spokane must ship to some of their territory over in the Great Northern and Northern Pacific. Of course, they want these roads to continue to favor them in every way, despite the boycott. There la no reason why the Great Northern and Northern Paciflc should be picked out to force the terminal ratea. These roads have been fairer to Spokane than the O. R. & N., but that system iS to be favored, to the ex clusion of others. There is no telling bow the fight will end, but it will be an interesting contest. It must work out its own solution before the roads can interfere. Referendum and Socialists. New York, March 2. A referendum vote was taken yesterday evening in Wurzler's hall, 315 Washington street by the members of the First and Sec ond assembly district branch In Brook lyn of the social democratic party upon an amendment to the national consti tution of the socialist party of Amer ica.
