— The Northern Pacific and the
Great Northern have submitted
to the interstate commerce eom-
i mission their reply to the condi­
tions fixed by the commission for
extension o f the Oregon Trunk to
K lam ath Falls, It was learned
today, but po Information la yet
available, as to its coptent«. ,
Qpe theory was . that , the Great
Northern has p>ade Individual ap­
plication to th e , I . C. C. tor per­
mission to build its own line
trom Bend to Klam ath Falls.
I t such permission .la denied,
It Is understood that the G n a t
Northern agrees te accept, sub­
ject to reeervatipns the Southern
Pacific’s contract for Joint user
privileges oyer the Southern Pa­
cific lines - Cascade , roq^e, from
Ppunina to Klamath Falls. This
agreement Is predicted again on
tk * commission’s permission. that
the Orest Northern be alia wed to
build its pwn extension,. from
Beqd to Paunipa.
.
j' ' ’
Tha outstanding fact t of the
Great N orthern’s answerK accord­
ing to the theory is that the
Northern Pacific has refused to
negotiate w ith the Great Northern
as’ eo-oWner of the Orégon T ra n k
