Salt Lake City, Utah, May 1.—The Southern Pacific company filed here yesterday its answer to the suit brought by the United States govern- ment to compel the separation of the Central Pacific from the Southern Pacific. The answer sets up the novel defense that the government itself, both through an act of congress and through the decision of the supreme court in the Union Pacific-Southern Pacific merger case, has tacitly recog- nized the Central Pacific line as an essential part of the Southern Pacific system. The defendants will be represented by J. P. Blair, general counsel of the Southern Pacific system, and by William F. Herrin, chief counsel on the Pacific coast, who will be as- sisted by P. F. Dunne and Garrett W. McEnerney of the San Francisco bar as special counsel, Specific Denials Made. The defendants make specific de- nials of the government’'s allegations tending to show violation of the Sher- man anti-trust law of 1890, and of the Pacific Railroad acts. The company recites the history of the lines owned by the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific to show that all of these lines were constructed under one owner- ship, and that the lines of the for- mer were built as extensions and con- nections for the Central Pacific. The lines of .the two companies always have been operated by one company, it is contended, and the Central Pa- cific was the operating company up to April 1, 1885, on which date the Southern Pacific company took pos- session of all the lines under a ninety- nine-year lease. It is pointed out that because these lines were under common ownership they were developed as one property. Branch lines from the Central Pa- cific ,were built by Southern Pacific, although they had no connection with the main line of the latter. In the joint operation through trains have been run by the most direct line, without reference to ownership. The answer asserts that a separation can- not now be had without great injury to each company and without involv- ing both in the expenditure of great sums for separate terminals. Legal Point Established. In connection with the government grant of a subsidy to Central Pacific, by which it became indebted for $58,000,000, attention is called :to the passage in 1898 of an act providing that the secretary of the treasury, secretary of the interior, and attorney general should constitute a commis- sion to obtain a settlement, Congress had stipulated that the Central Pa- cific should be made to pay $5,800,000 a- year..for..ten years to extinguish this debt, “This sum exceeded many times over any peossible net earnings of the Central Pacific that could be applied to the payment of this debt,” says the answer, “and it cannot be ques- tioned that congress intended and understood that this debt could only be paid by the employment of the credit and resources of the Southern Pacific company. Participation Was Expected, “The defendants therefore allege that congress, at the time it enacted the law of July 7, 1898, contemplated and expected such participation by Southern Pacific in the settlement provided for, By reason of the afore- said transaction with the United States government the Southern Pa- cific had the right to believe and re- ly upon the fact that its relations with Central Pacific, its leases and its acquisition of the stock of said company, were not, nor were any of them, in violation of the law.” It is further said that in the beliefl that the government sanctioned the Southern Pacific’s control of Central Pacific the former has incurred heavy financial obligations for the benefit of the Central Pacific which it would not otherwise have incurred, For example, in 1911 it unconditional- 1y guaranteed an issue of 250,000,000 Pictures Chemicals, the scientifically tested chemicals of the purity. e From Your Films and Plates v Bring us the exposures you have so carefully made — those you are so anxious to have “come out well.” Let our experts skillfully develop the negatives with wonder-working Ansco / N _highest degree of And then let our experts make your prints on prize-winning Cyko Paper, the paper which has wide latitude and tone gradations.

Bar to Suit. The supreme court’s decree ig the Harriman merger case is relied upon as a bar to the present suit. In the full knowledge that the Southern Pa- cific owned the Central Pacific, the lower court dismissed the action to compel a separation of Union Pacific | and Southern Pacific. The supreme court reversed this decree only upon the point that the Union Pacific’s con- trol of Southern Pacific was illegal, | saying as to all other matters: “We find no reason to disturb the ' action of the court below.” Ultimatum Was Decreed. In the process of carrying out -the supreme court’s decree in the earlier case Attorney Genefal McReynolds made earnest efforts to have the Cen- tral Pacific. transferred to the Union Pacific, for which it furnishes western connection from Ogden. The two companies could not come to terms after the California Railroad commission refused to allow certain advantages to ater! to Union Pacific in connection with ‘the sale, and the dissolution was finally worked out to the exclusion of the proposed Cen- tral Pacific sale. Mr. McReynolds thereupon served an ultimatum on the Southern Pacific that it must dis- pose of Central Pacific or stand an- other dissolution suit. TO ENTER PRIVATE PRACTICE. Frank H.
