Eagan in Training. THURSTCN ARCUES FOR THE DEMURRER Oregon and Tdaho Courts Have Previously Conceded Primary Jurisdictio Wyoming Courts in De: with the Roads, to the g PORTLAND, Ore., John M. Thurston today the demurrer to the American Loan Trust company petition against the Oregon Short Line and Utah Northern Railway com pany. He sald the first mortgages on the original Oregon Short Line and U North ern were first liens the properties, and that any subsequent mortgag: was subject to these prior lens. He said judicial pricty, which the eolicitors of Dillon, trustee, had no right to disregard, required that when the foreclosure sult was bought it be commenced in the Eighth circuit, which had primary jurisdiction. He sald in these pro coedings the for complainant had referred time and again by innuendo, rather than by plain speaking, to errors in the order made by the federal courts trom the begluning of the Ames suit down to date. He sald he should never stand and criticise the actions of the federal court of his country. He sald that in the Dillon case the courts of the Oregon and ldaho district conceded by thelr orders that the Wyoming court was the one of primary jurisdiction, and conceded to it the right to primarily make any order In the case. He paid his respects to Mr. Storey's statement, made that the loan and trust company did not ask for the appoint ment of its receiver, but for the appointment of a proper court’s receiver, and said the petitioners had picked a receiver, meaning John M. Bagan, chalrman of the General Managers' assoclation, during the great strike last summer; had brought him clear across the continent; he had sat in the court room during all of the argument, and sat there today as “petitioner’s exhibit A” in the case. March argued 14 in nator of and favor on pro- counsel KING MORE INFORMATION Spanish Minister Telographa to Cuba for His Side of the Allianea Story. CHICAGO, March 14.—The Western senger men continued their meeting today but nothing was done, The situation is becoming almost a hopeless muddle, and while a major- ity of the lines are hopeful that the commit- tee agreement will soon be put into operation, they are not setting any date for it trary to the program, the Wabash-Alton fight did not come up and the particular skein which the lines are trying to unravel is that of the St. Paul-Minneapolis rate sheet. The Omaha road refuses flatly allow rates demanded the Chicago Great Western to be shown in the sheet, and the Great Western will do nothing until the Omaha backs down. That was the situation when the meeting opened and it remained % until the close. Neither side gave way an inch and nothing was done. Later in the day an informal meeting of the transcontinental lines was held to discuss the boundaries of their subcommitcees. It amounted to nothing more than a discussion. The general meeting of the western frelght agents cleared up its docket today and the western and northwestern lines began their meeting. The western lines refused an appli- cation for an advance in lumber rates from points on the Ohio river to points on the Missourl river, and referred the matter to a committee of the St. Louis lines. A rate of 221 cents on agricultural implements was made from Mississippi river points to Mis- souri river points and 30 cents from Chicago to Missourl river points. The last thing on the docket was an application for a reduc- tion in rates for spikes, bolts, etc., from Kansas City to St. Paul and Minneapolis. It was refused and the meeting adjourned. Tha western and northwestern lines de- cided to apply the same rates to Chicago from Duluth as from St. Paul on eastern shipments, and refused an application for a reduced rate on wire and nalls from Chicago to St. Paul. It was decided to make no change in the rates on flour from Minneapolis to Towe points. THe matter of proportional rates on lumber shipments originating In Pacific coast territory, from St. Paul to Chi- cago was veferred to a committee. After granting a rate of 20 cents to St. Paul, and 25 cents to Duluth on car loads of furniture, minimum weight 2,000 pounds, from Fond du Lac, the meeting adjourned. Its docket will bo_finished tomorrow. Earnings of the Atchison system, all lines, for the first week of March, were §737,687, an increase of $20,970 over the sama week of last year. Barnings of the St. Louis & San Francisco were, for the week, $114,772, a_de- crease of $3,017. The earnings of the Atlan- tic & Pacific were $66,006, an increase of $1,147. Earnings of the Colorado Midland were $25,484, an increase of $1,121. Earn- ings of the Atchison system proper, exclusive of lines reported above, were $531,425, an in- crease of $21,719. All the above are approxi- mated gross earnings. The railroad claim agents spent most of the day considering changes in their by-laws. Several minor changes were made. The fol- lowing officers were elected: President, John T. Denniston, Pittsburg; vice president, W. A. Eldredge, Memphis; second vice presi- dent, A. T. Drew, St. Louis; secretary and treasurer, 8. A. Mehorter, Philadelphia. The next mecting of the association will be held in New York early in August. Con- PRESIDENT PERKINS AND HIS PAKTY. Brief Stay in Omaha Yesterday Enroute to the Northwest. President C. E. Perkins of the Burlington system arrived In Omaha yesterday by special train, composed of private cars 100 and 200, accompanied by the general so- licitor of the company, J. W. Blythe, General Freight Agent Howard Elliott of the Burling- ton lines in Missouri, Miss Perkins of Bur- lington and her friends, Miss Carr and Miss Dalton of Boston. The party of officials left at 30 for the northwest on a tour of In- spection, General Manager Holdrege accom- panying the party in his private car 34, which was attached here. A short stop will be made and at Lincoln, and then the big guns of the Burlington will go to Deadwood, Sheri. dan, and on to the terminus of the road at Billings, President Perkins was scen yesterday by a_representative of The Bee, bui was de- cidedly averse to being interviewed, proba- bly on the theory that the least sald the soonest mended, for a short talk which Mr. Perkins had with a newspaper man in Den- ver, the last time he was on his western tour, caused the Burlington stocks to drop thre? points, and the memory of that talk was undoubtedly uppermost in the mind of the president when he was addressed by The Bee man. He began by saying that this was his first visit west in threo or four months and that he aimed to keep in touch with the property by going over it thrce or four times a year. “There is absolutely nothing sgnificant in my visit at this time, said he, “‘any more than I desire to see the condition of the property and how it 8 coming out of the winter season, which is particularly hard on rolling stock.” Asked if he would give a reason for the great falling off in the receipts of the com- pany during the first three weeks in Febru- ary, as indicated by the authorized state- ment of the auditor, be was kind enough to say (o the newspaper man that he knew the reason quite as well as the president of the company. “Bad business; that is the ouly reason. Why, we have not had a carload of corn aeross the Mississippi river in six months, That's the reason for the bad showing. Lines west of the Missouri river hava been handicapped.” When asked i ho had hopes for better times Mr. Perkins became somewhat face tious, and remarked that hope was the only thing left. “If the west has good crops this year everything will take an upward turn, but all fs dependent upon the haryests. With good crops we have llitle fear of the outcome, but with another fallure, well, no man can tell what will happen." at Havelock Opens & Market for Folatoes.
