BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL)
Julius Kruttschnltt. chairman of the
board of the Southern Pacific, testifying-
before the Interstate commerce
commission in the Central -Southern
pacific un merger, case, was driven to
the admission that on - the 'basis of
equated - milage - he had computed the
Union Pacific, by way" of the. O-W
R. & N.. as having an advantage over
the Shasta line of the Southern Pacific
in reaching Portland from the East.
In the present case the Southern pa
cific officials naturally dwell upon the
value of their Northern line for through
traffic It was recalled to Kruttschnltt
that In a former proceeding some years
ago he testified that in comparing the
Union Pacific haul over the Blue moun
ting and the Southern over the 8iskl
yous, the Southern has a longer haul
en equated milage than if the distance
be computed, on a strict mileage basis.
' Kruttschnltt said this was substan
tially correct. Later he asked to speak
a little more in detail' about this, but
his additional testimony was on some
what unrelated matters. .
He said that in building branches

C. P. Huntington and his associates.
He instanced the Central Pacific seg
ment from -Tehama, 3aL, nortli to the
Oregon line, as an example of the "al
most impossibility of physical separa
tion of the properties, and , he spent
some time in explaining? the disadvan
tages of building' up a system of joint
control. - t j :
Unified operation as cheaper and
more efficient was 'the -cornerstone of
the Kruttschnltt argument It seems
easy to picture the comfort which will
be drawn from, his testimony by those
who favor government ownership and

He asserted that in the event of sep
aration the Southern Pacific will, need
J2.67S.OOO for additional capital expen
ditures, mainly for enlarged facilities
for traffic now using Central Pacific
tracks, and that - the - Central ; Pacific
will need $20,642,000. largely for loco
motives and - cars. As to what . the
Southern will do if it wins out in the
pending case, Mr. 'Kruttschnltt made
the following , statement: ' - ,
The general increase of traffic baa
made. - it imperative ' to . undertake a
number of improvements of a pressing
nature at once, and , Southern Pacific
stands ready, if this application foi
temporary lease of Central Pacific be
granted, to advance the money at once,
as the Central Pacific itself, with its
poor credit,; cannot obtain it, in order
to provide enlarged and more modern
facilities at various points, including
stations at' Sacramento and Reno,
whose requirements have outgrown ex
isting ones ; to establish enlarged ter
minal at Dunsrouir;- substitute the
most substantial . ballast for that 'now
under the ties on parts of the line
where necessary ; to etart the construc
tion of second tracks on parts of the
Central Pacific Jline where such con
struction will facilitate the prompt
movement of traffic, such as certain
sections of the tracks over the Sierra
