Again there 1 a rumor that some

Is cannot be learned at this time. E. T.
Abbot, manager ol the Klamath Lak
Kallroad. will arrlv in lb city tonight
(rom Thrall, and those who ar on th
Intlde say his coming Is to bar effect
upon the transportation situation, both
freight and paateogsrt. Manager Ab
bott has had matters pretty much hla

business at a time when tbsr stilt re
mains chance (or him to hold at least
a part of It. Only a very few bar been
advised of Mr. Abbott's coming, tad
among these are Capt. J. M. Mclntlre
and Abel Ady. Th latUr la already
connected with the local transportation
companies and It la very probable) that

reorganisation of a company to operate
a freight business (rom Poksfassa to

The Klamath Lak railroad will b

the case the railroad eaa luul freight

nothing. II thy get enough to pay for
handling It and to pay th xpos of
running the train tb railroad company
will be just that much ahead. If a Tery
low rat Is maintained on tb Klamath
Lake railroad the Pokegama rout will
be able to compete with the new line
throughout the entire Summer, or at
teaat until the road is built to the water,
so that the boat connections can be
made with the trains over th Califor
nia Northeastern. It 1 stated that the
villi ol Mr. Abbott I to arrange (or a
freight service (rom Pokegama to this
city to go into effect as soon aa the Mc
lntlre Company transfers to the other
route.
Capt. Mclntlre says he Is not aware ol
such a move and Mr. Ady says nothing.
However, it is understood that Abbott is
coming here to devote his time and ser
vices to some ol tb tangles in the local
transportation situation, and those who
claim to know say that the result will
be that freighting from Pokegama will
continue throughout the entire Summer
and Fall and that the rate will be aa
low at over the new route.
