TRAFFIC AGREEMENT. TO
GIVE QUICKER SERVICE
A a result of an order made by th.
Oregon railway commission yesterday
for a trackage connection between the
Southern Pacific and United Railways
company at the Jefferson street depot,
it is contended that South Portland in
dustries will not secure any lower rates.
but it Is admitted that they will on
occasions get the benefit of quicker
service in receiving or dispatching cars
between South Portland and eastern ter
ritory.
One result of the connection will be to
immediately reliev. th United Railway
company of the necessity of building its
own spur to South Portland factories
and mills. This company will be able
to have loaded cars on the Southern Pa
cific routed out over the United Rail
ways oompany's track via the Jefferson
street connection, and divide with the
Southern Paclfio the $10 shipping charge
that is collected on certain commodities.
Heretofore the Southern Paclfio has
charged 110 per car for carrying furni
ture from South Portland, via the St.
Joseph cut-off. to th north Portland
terminals.
May Yot Build Spurs.
With tha new connection at Jefferson
street the car can be brought by the
Southern Pacific to Jefferson street, at
a switching charge of $6. and then
turned over to the United Railways
company, which for another switching
charge of (0 will deliver it to the Port
land destination.
Rnm of th Konth Portland mill men
ar apprehensive that the United Rail
ways company win noi y1 uTO,J lu uuuu
spurs to their factories, since the com-
any can now get ine dubuicm iui
avlng independent sidetracks. Fletcher
Linn, preside of th Oregon furni
ture Manufacturing company, said:
"I do not know that th Jefferson
street connection will get us any less
freight rates, but it may give us
prompter service In getting oar and
sending out shipments. On the other
hand it may be that th United Rail
ways company will not glv urn ejy in
dependent spur tracks, since they can
now use th Southern Pacific's tracks
to Jefferson street and dlvid th rev
enues with them. We would b mucn

SET TRAP JOt OFFICERS.
Surprise for Deputy Marshals In the

Tn .v. trnn-rvUlA Sentinel.
Th rnninr laws of a bear trap is
what confronted, lputy United States
Marshal George Sharp and others wherr
they made a raid last Friday mgni into
the mountains of Blount county. .
In the posse were the two deputies
mentioned and Deputy Rmrmw Collec

and went to the Norm Carolina una,,
and there located distillery alleged to

officers were Just on the point of leap

Messrs. Blankenship and Sharp spied th
bear trap, and crawiea oacs. '
They were both on th point of leap
ing down at the same time, and bad
they done so they would have been in
stantly caught in the trap. The trap is
said to hav been one of th largest ever
seen in tb mountain of East Tennes

more benefited, if w. could get spur
track from th United Railway com
pany, by which 'we could ship direct
with one switching charge to North
Portland terminals'
. Benefit to Kills.
J. C Iiuckel, president of the Luckel,
King & Cake Soap company, waa of th.
opinion that tha Jefferson street con
nection would be' of no special benefit
to his firm, bot said It would benefit
a number of other mills in the South
Portland district that are so situated
that the fcffmatlon of the ground does
not perlmt the construction of spurs
from the united Hallways company
tracks to their plants. He thought th.
commission's order was a good thing
for the entire tsoutn rertiana district.
as It would be an additional facility in
the handling of freight in carlots or
otherwise.
The Southern Pacific officials say the
connection U sought by the United Rail
ways company merely to enable the lat
ter to divide the revenues with the for
mer company, and that its effect will be
to relieve tb united Hallways company
from building it own spurs to th man
ufacturing plant in South Portland.
They aver that the connection will for
the latter reason be ultimately a damage
instead of a benefit to these industries.
It is claimed that if th. United Rail
ways company would build its own
spurs it would not need a South Portr
land connection with the Southern Pa
cific, but would tben be able to run
empty and loaded cars through between
these Industries and the North Portland
terminal yards, Independent of the
Southern Pacific's South Portland
tracks. It in alleged by the Southern
Pacifies traffic officials that the con
nection will not Increase South Portland
traffic, and will In several Instances
Increase the switching and freight
charges upon these Industries,., as the
additional switching charges resulting
from United Railways operation will not
be absorbed by the steam roads on
eastern or southern haul.
Claim Great Benefit,
It is Bald the lumber rates from Port
land to eastern Oregon will not be re
duced to the disadvantage of eastern
Oregon mills, and likewise Portland box
factories will not ,be given rates that
would enable -them to compete with box
factories at Hood River, Baker City.
Roseburg, Mtdford and other point,
more favorably located as to the frult
raislng Industry.
The officials of the United Railways
company assert that the Jefferson
street connection will ba a great bene
fit to South Portland industries by re
ducing their freight chargeo and by
permitting them to ship direct every
night between, their plants and the
North Portland terminals, and will en
able them to get empty oars of any
kind desired much quicker than these
cara could heretofore be obtained from
the Southern Pacific. It is sIbo al
leged by the United Railways company
that its intention is to build lndepend-
ent spurs from its line to these plants
wherever construction is
ction is practical:
s practicable.
The connecting
g
track will be built as
soon as the officials of the opposing
companies have a conference and ad
just their controversy. Should they
ran to agree tne railway commission
will act as arbitrator.
The way to secure good government is
to Investigate the candidate for office.
Do this in my case.
