' Move on Part of Interstate Commerce Commission, to Secure a Joint Rate Brings One Hundred and Fifty New Locomo ;tlves to Hill Lines Ten New Engines Here. Confronted with ' the throat . that a Joint rato will bo enforced by the Inter state commerce eommlaslon on lumber from Washington to eastern terminal of the Tjnlon Pad no, . the Great North ern aad Northern Paolfla Railway com panies are making strenuoua efforts to secure additional motive power. It Is reported . from Seattle that the Great Northern management has succeeded In getting- a contract for delivery of 160 new locomotives within the next 0 days. aTarrlmaa Aft Traffic. Washington ' lumber, manufacturers some time ago, becoming deaperate tver the embargo en lumber ahlpments from that state over the northern lines, ap proached ths Harrtman-management for a Joint rat over the Union Pacific sys tem via Portland, and Spokane, for lum ber shipments to Missouri river terri tory. The Harrlman lines, , notwith standing their failure to furnish cars to their own patrons. Indicated a deatre to haul the Washington lumber east, and said, that they were ready to make a Joint rat with the Washington roads If the latter were willing. - r- hen the Hill lines were applied to they refused to make Joint rates on east-bound lumbal. The Washington lumber men then appealed to the Inter state commerce commlaalon, and to the Washington railway . commission, and these bodies have been considering the natter. The' tip has come that 'th Interstate commerce commission will put a Joint rat into effect. Trevsl Seres Miles Dally. Knowing that the Union Pacific, now en th point f Invading western Wash ington via Portland, will do its utmost to cater to the business- Interests of that region and get a ahare of th busl- j ness of. th northern , line, th Great Northern' and Northern Paclflo are forced to take extreme measures to quip themselveeto handle more busi ness. It bss been notorious that th Northern Paclflo' and Great Northern are short on motive powers that their loaded cars stand for weeks on side tracks when they should have been moving to their destination, and that the average movement of freight from th ooast to th east over the Hill lines is seven miles a day. .. It is said th car shortage that has nearly ruined scores of mlllraon in the state of Wash ington 'would not have been half so se rious had ths Hill lines been equipped with a reasonable amount of motive power. . . Provide ISO w Bnglaea, ' Th announcement that th Great Northern will have 159 new locomotives within th next three months la th most welcome news shipping Interests have received for years. Th order w sent in by. Frank McGulgan, the new vice-president of th company, before be bad been In office two weeks. In the opinion of the lumber men. th fact that McGulgan succeeded In getting th con tract from th locomotive makers Is a refutation of the oft-repeated olaim that th locomotive works of .the country are two years behind with their orders.
