WASHINGTON. Juno 4--A petition
for1 re-opening of the proceedings by
which the inter-state commerce, com
mission has allowed tho Southern Pn
cific railroad to retain control of the
Central Pacific was filed today by the
public service commission in Oregon.
In approving continuance of the
merger of the two railroads the com
mission attacked' certain conditions
and the Orogon petition asked for
the: enforcements of rights to use
Central Pacific property ' which other
railroads mny bo entitled to exercise.
The Central Pacific now. has a line
through Oregon, tho petition said,
which tho Oregon Trunk 'railroad has
been entitled to use between Skookum
and Klamath Falls. Tho genoral com
plaint was made that tho merger in
Oregon had reduced competition in
railroad service, , v '.''.

AT
SALLM, Ore.', June 4. That the
question of whether tho stato of Ore
gon or the federal government is the
rightful owner of Sand Island, in tho
mouth of tho Columbia river will be
determined in court became certain
yesterday when tho state land board
grantoil to the Columbia River Puck
ers a.sKocintlon a lease to tho fishing
rights of tho island.
The state is to receive fifty per cent
of the proceeds of the fishing opera
tions. Since 1S64 tho federal government
has had control of the island and has
leased out the fishing rights. In that
year the state ceded the island to the
govornment, tho terms being that It
be used for military purposes. It
never was used for military purposes,
hence the state's claim that title
should revert to tho state. The fed
eral government Is expected imme
diately to start suit again tit the state,
and In this way the title right will be
tested. The Barbey Packing com
pany recently received a lease on the
Island from tho government.
If tho slato wins it is estimated that
Its returns from tho fishing opera
tions will be more than $50,000 a
year.
