SENTIMENT OF MANY CITIZENS : Interviewed Today by Reporters of The Star. —Their Views Presented to the > Public in Crisp Form. A number of prominent citizens were interview today by Star reporters, in ¢ jer to ascertain their views re@arding the proper lo cation for @ depot tn this city, It will be noticed that the ment seems to be strongly in favor of the site proposed by Presi- dent James J, Hil, of the Great Northern Messrs. Spelger & Hurtburt, in @ joint interview, said: “We do not believe in antagonizing Mr, Hill, Whatever interests of his own he may have been looking after, his work has been good for Seattle. We hardly think the Great Northern will leave here, Dut at the same time we think Mr. Hill is right. Marion street is not the place for a union depot; we favor the tide land site. The waterfront from Yes! up should be left to the local steam- ere, That is the most convenient place.” A. M. Brookes, of the Bost \n National Bank preferred to mind his own affairs: “I have not studied the situation, but I believe Mr. Hill is « man of his word. I have never known him to be a ‘biuffer.’ It seems to me that any business man should see at a glance that Raliroad avenue f# not the place for a depot, As to what should be done I have formed no opinion. I think, how ever, we would be safe in ne terference, and the railroads will undoubtedly make some equitable adjustment of the diticulty.” Juitue Reideisheimer has studied the matter for some time: “My opinion is that the affairs of the two ratiroads are none of our busines: Beattie is past the stage where it need a union de pot. anyway. All metropolitan cities have several depots, and I favor the establishment of two in Seattle. As far as Mr. iti goes, when It no longer pays him to stay In Seattle, he will go any- way; but he is too wise a man to leave as long as his best interests are here. Seattle is old enough to stand on its own Isa and we should act for the interests of the city, without regard to threats from_any source.” Labor Commissioner Grout: “I do not like the idea of a union depot at the foot of Marion street. The side streets would have to be vacated, which would be a detriment to travel. I think Mr. HU ts right.” . Judge Cann “I believe the citizens of Seattle should listen to Mr. Hill's argument, and that the unton depot should be erected upon the tide fats, and not at the f of Marion street B. O. Graves: “Mr. Hill, to striving to keep that part of the waterfront between King street and North Geattle free from ralt- road yards, and to put all wrminals south of King street, a for the benefit of local commerce. His idea is correct.” Jacob Furth: “Mr. Hill is right in tis idea of keeping the waterfront clear for the oenett of the “Mosquito feet." The terminals should go south of King street.” R. B. Bullock: “If Hil allows bimeeif to be tied up like he In- timates, he is not as bright « man ae he is thought. I think if We persist in the present attitude, we will drive the Great North- ern to Bellingham bay, where it already owns seven miles of water- front. We must not forget what Whatcom county means as an egriouitural district, nor the harbor facilities of Bellingham BR Merchant: “If we permit the present attitude of the North- ern Pacific and Great Northern, we ought to get the worse of it Hitt ts a man that means just what he says, and he qii We should by all means keep open the streets near th front. and should keep the local steamers where they are handy to commerce.” Frank Jobst: its attitude is right. ¢ The proposed site is no location for a depot, and I betieve Hill will be supported by the merchants.” E. C. Cheasty: “Mr. Hill's argument as to the preservation of the waterfront is a good on needs the ‘mosquito fleet.’ The terminais should go so ath of King street E. W. Andrews: “I agree entirely with President Hil! ley of the Northern Pacific in butiding a union depot present depot and putting yards there, would block the water- front.” Oo. M. Moore, of fined ideas: “I see no reason why you voice. The proposed alte is altogether out of the ou every standpoint. It would cost the Northern for a foundation as it would for a depot The ir local traffic is of itself a sufficient reason why the not be bullt at the foot « Thos. W. Prosch, who was one of depot should he menrbers of the board that superintended the platting of the railroad tide lands, said: “At the time when we hired Mr. Boge for $1,560 to plat the tide lands, every aspect of the situation was thoroughly canvas: 1 Ass far as congesting traffic on Railroad avenue goes, it would be eo “The Great Northern will never go, but I betleve The pot near bureau, fina had ® dissenting stion from as much rence with Information well-de- should the easy enough to keep a couple of tracks open, and Mr. Hill could mass his cars on the tide flats as he desires.
