' '. f Tho joint memorial, now pend ing:, addressed to the Interstate commission, the Oregon delega tion in congress, the United States attorney r general and the , presi dent of ; the United States, re questing that Oregon receive con sideration in( the decision that dill dispose of the Central Pacific properties was under discussion.. . Meeting to Continue The meeting was only well nn ider, way when there was a call for the .senators to return to the chamber and the meeting will, be continued today. " . After Mayor Dooilttle of On tario had spoken briefly and P. J. Gallagher of Ontario and W. J. Hanley f Burns had presented the case of , central and eastern Oregon, Frank J., Miller of Al bany, former, member of the pub lic service commission, declared that there, is no federal or, state law by which the- interstate com merce commission can compel a . common -user of main lines,. ' He . said thls would apply ..to terrain als. t '.- -. " c-' , . " ' Joint rser Dented Gallagher wanted to Iraow why the tentative decision of the' in terstate commission makes that provision for " the Southern " Pa cific, and the Union Pacific from Ogden to San Francisco t Miller andTBen C. .Day, attorney for tho Southern, Pacific, both averred .that the tentative decree does not doeo. Mr. Day was to . explain how It does not in his argument. . but the conference adjourned be fore he had spoken. , , .Mr. Miller, who said he repre sented commercial ; clubs of the Willamette valley, and . denied ve hemently that he is in thejay of the Southern Pacific, declared that the Southern Pacific would build the Natron cut-oft if its ap- . plication is' granted by the inter stat commission. He said fur . ther' that If the .Southern .Pacific .Is "allowed to Invade eastern Or egon it will be. compelled to build feeder lines for the benefit of eastern Oregon or else the Union Pacific win build Ihem. Miller States Policy : ' Mf- Gallagher challenged ' this asking.' If 'the interstate commis sion might not deny applications , ' to build roads in eastern Oregon before sufficient tonnage has been developed there. Miller said not declaring ' that railroads v have never been accustomed to wait until the. tonnage was ' available before invading a territory. ; v "The Interstate commerce com mission has just recently turned down four or five applications on that ground,", declared Gallagher. Mr. Day Interrupted to say that the present case Is the tirst of its kind that has ever gone before the commission, and turned to H II. Corey.' chairman of the public service commission, for confirma tion of bia statement. Corey Takes Issue But Corey took issue with Day, declaring .that Gallagher's state ment was correct. .' , , Mr,-Miller declared' he .was thoroughly, in' accord with the . eastern Oregon representatives In their- desire for. railroad ' develop ment, but declared ' the ; common user" arrangement desired -.by them and the public service com mission I would militate against this rather than bring It about. He said It would invite litigation and retard development. . He re-! cried any, kind of a common user agreement, declaring it has not helped Oregon between Portland and Seattle, and that not a foot of railroad has been built in east ern Oregon since the Union Pa cific and the Hill line entered In to a common i user agreement along the Deschutes ' river. He declared that if the Southern Pa cific should complete the Natron cut-off and 'the Union Pacific should build from Crane west ward there would be a free flow of traffic over the new line at the discretion of the shippers themselves. ., . ,. Gallagher Urges Action f Mr. Gallagher urged that every thing possible be done" in Ore gon prior to January 19, when the final decision is - to come down, to cause the - interstate commission to consider Oregon's future, i At his f suggestion the committee cut down the verbage of the 'resolution, 1 removing all descriptive matter, and arrang ing it so that all the prospective lines are i not enumerated. The resolution now Bimply calls for construction from Crane ' west ward to whatever point the Inter state commerce commission might designate. ' As changed It "would admit1 of entrance into Yhe Wil lamette valley either by ' M4nto pass or the Natron cut-off,-- Mn Gallagher- advised that the legis lature should not' take- a partisan stand, but simply1 insist upon a plan that would develop - Oregon. William Hanley, speaking for the resolution; declared that construction- Insisted ujkm means more1 to Oregon thanv all .other railroads ' combined. He said it was strictly a matter ' for the' leg tslature and the' people of the state to take up. FEARED 3CLAN, VICTIM. f ...

CONTROL OF CENTRAL PACIFIC LOST : (Continued from page 1) Pacific from the Southern Pacific for the ! same ' reason. A few months ago ; the supreme court ruled against this combination al so. This left the Southern Paci fic under the apparent necessity ot disposing of the Central Pacific by sale either to the Union Pacific or to a third party. , . Bitter Fight Waged Meanwhile, however, congress had authorized a regrouping of the. railroad lines into , new sy terns and under this authority the Southern Pacific began a bitter fight to retain the Central Pacific. Pacific coast interests lined up for and against the plan, as did oth er pities along the Union Pacific line. The Union Pacific contend ed that, as a the matter stood, traffic normally destined over its line through Omaha was routed by the Southern Pacific, along the Southern route through. New' Or leans. ' ' The, settlement now declared to be effected is said .to protect the. Union Pacific thoroughly against such discrimination. ; Under the provisions of the Cummins act, congress In 1322 authorized the - grouping of tail roads into new systems ; for the purpose of joining the weaker systems', with .the stronger. . If, as reported here tonight, the Cummins law is Interpreted as superseding the Sherman anti trust law, then the ;; Interstate commission is to betthe sole judge in the future of railroad combin ations. , - .
