8 TRANSFER SWITCH. LAW CASE Argnmcnta Were Hoard in This City by Judge Chapman Yesterday , CONTENTION Or THE DEFENDANT ROADS HtCOtlnttoni Ilctnrcn Union Pacific and the Ore-con 1'car of Ncrloim friction Mot Jlrimiffd So OlelinUlon nt Illll- liur Itnllrond > oiv . The demurrer to the mandatory proceed ings ot the State Board of Transportation ngnlnst the Sioux City , O'Neill" & Western Railroad company lo compel the company to put In transfer switches nt O'NcIll , Holt county , woa argued yesterday In this city be fore Judge Chapman ot Plattsmouth. The eaio was heard In General Attorney Haw- ley's ' offlce at the Elkhorn headquarters , the arguments taking up the afternoon. Judge Chapman will render a decision at his ear liest convenience. The title of the suit Is the State of Ne braska ex rcl the State Doard of Transporta tion , rclator , against the S.'oux City , O'Neill & iVcstcrn Railroad company , P , C. Hills as receiver , and the frcmont , Elkhorn & Jlltsourl Valley Railroad company , respond- nta. ' , The contention made by the Fremont , Elk- Tiorn & Missouri Valley HaIIroad company Is that the Packwood switching law Is void and cannot be enforced for the following reasons : The act Is amendatory of the act of 1S87 , creating the State Board of Transportation without reference to that act ; It amcnits the Kewberry bill without reference ; It Is amend atory of section 113 , chapter xvl , comp led statutes , In reference to the construction of switches and sidetracks , without reference ; the title In no way refers to the subject of rates. The brief states that the law could not bo enforced because It would require a shipment made by longer lines for a sum not greater than by a shorter line al the arbitrary de mand of the ehlpper , which would bo unjust * and unconstitutional. It would require two br more roads to carry freight In carload 'lots ftl less than regular rates. The act provides , It Is further alleged , that waybills shall be made out by the receiving company , and that each company shall be- paid In proportion to Its mlleago , but does not state when and where the rate Is to be collected nor by Whom. This law , It Is argued , conflicts with other laws regulating freight traffic , nnd Is unfair In Its. . provisions , depriving railway companies , of duo process of law and the pro tection thereof. It Is also claimed that as this road Is In the hands of a receiver , this court has no jurisdiction of the matter. The net applies only to shipments In carload lots , and clearly contemplates that the car of the receiving company shall be loaded and trans ported ovv the whole distance from the nolnt of shipment to the point of destination. The receiving company Is thus compelled to part with Its property without any compen- tatlon for the time and service of the car while upon other roads , and no security or provision Is made for Its return at any time. ' Mr. Hawley holds that the Sloax City , , O'Neill & Western railroad Is exempt from this law , under the act exempt ng roads built since the 1st of January , 1SS , and that the Newberry bill would allow each road to charge the sum of Its own locals , In car load lots , over two or more lines of road , so that the ' I'ackwood bill U nn amendment to the Newberry bill , without any reference whatsoever. He further holds that as this load Is In the hands of a receiver It does sot come under the jur sdlctlon of this court. Both sides were well ' supplied with au- thorltles , and argued each -point with'consid erable latitude. The law undtr which these 'of ' proceedings were brought by the State Board Transportation was passed by the last general .assembly , nnd went Into effect Au gust 1 , 1S33. On September 19 , 1893 , the [ defendant railroads filed' n petition with the State Board of Transportation , asking to be relieved from the operation of the law. bed. , hearing was had , an Investigation ordered , and n report of the findings of facts by the secretaries of the board was made , after which the board ordered that the- petition be ' denied' . This order was made In , March. 18D4 , and since then these > roads have dlsregardsd the Packnood switching law. Attorney General Hastings contended that . this law was valid .atml , Juit ami equitable , nnd was passed In answer tr > the repeated le- mands of the shippers of the state. lie held Hint , although the road was In the hands of a receiver , the latter would have to op erate it under the laws of ( he state , Just hole same as would the original owners. He le- nied that this road was leho exempt from hoof provisions of the Packwood law because of subsequent construction , ami Insisted that every provision of the switching law should be enforced to the tetter. There are other suits of a similar nature against the B. & M. and other roads the dec slon of , and Judge Chapman nwaltod with will beef considerable Interest by all of the other railroads In the state. l.nnmx t llio Sent of Wur. General Passenger Agent Lomax of the Union Pacific Is In Portland upon two mis sions ; first , to hold a conference with Re ceiver McNeill of the Oregon tend Navigation Hallway and company relative to tlio blanket * proportion of 29 per cent , Oregon demanded by the company from the.

In the case of this demand It Is the volco . of Nelll Sic. , but the hands are the hands of Jim Kverylhlng at present points to , a fight on the part of the Union polntment Pacific , the np- of Mr. Baxter , who has a large rge personal following In that territory , having been the first note of warning to the Oregon company that the Union Pacific to n fair would agree ; proportion of divisions , but not would yield a single Inch beyond a certain point. A strong ofllca Is to be maintained ned at Portland. . A well known railroad trained In man transcontinental rates will have charge of the traffic department. There will bf traveling freight and city passenger men , passenger and freight men ami all the help necessary to secure business , the agree ment as to divisions PBCIfle between the Union making such an oillce necessary. Doth the Oregon and Union Paclflo com panies arc In fighting humor and It U not Improbable that n rate war will be the out come of the antagonism of Mr. McNeill I lo the receivers of the Union Pacific. - to CniKn Trouble , The withdrawal of the Illinois Central from the Western Passenger association , as told-In the telegraphic dispatches from Chi cage , was expected by general passenger ' agents of roads , members of the association tlon here. " "Uut the dispatches do not state ex actly the causes leading up to the with- drawiil of the Illinois Central tlcally , although prac- It amounts to the same thing , " said a railroad man who attends the meetings of the " association. "The Illinois Central asked the association to put In the Short Line rate to San Francisco - via New Orleans , which U the old rate of flOO. This was negatived by the association. . Then the rep resentative of the Illinois Central gave notice that ho would put In the rate that anyway , and is where the matter rested when 1 came hopio. What effect the withdrawal I \vnl will have Is not at present apparent , Hi- though the roads will be compelled to meet the rate If the Illinois Central persists In " Its couw.

There will be no red fire over the conjunction effected at Hillings. It Is purely a business proposition nnd we do not think It needs any great nmount of celebration. Ot course one cannot help but be cnthuslac- tla over the territory opened up to Omaha and Its business men , Nearly 1,500 miles of new country Is placed on our doorstep and that means much to a city the size ot this. Ample arrangements , have been made with the Northern I'aolflc at Hillings. Wo will have a ticket representation east , as well as west , at all Important points , which Is much In our favor. Wo will malntan general offices at Portland , as we hnvo done In the past , and also at Hillings. And as for serv ice , wo propone to give our competitors an example of enterprise which they will bo only too glad to Imitate vihen the time comes , " VATCIIINO UP A itTort : Ilclni ; Mnilu to Hold the IlltnoU Ontr.il In I. iio , CHICAGO , Oct. 12. The report that the Illlno's Central road had withdrawn from Iho Western Passenger association was somewhat premature. TheToad _ may with draw from the association If It cannot se cure any consideration of Its plan to put In a round trip rate of $100 from Chicago to Sati Francisco via New Orleans. At the time the proposal of the Illinois Central was presented to the meeting of the association lines. It concluded that the west was not entitled to the consideration which It called for , nnd It was on account of this that the other lines would not consent to the rate the Illinois Central presented. As soon as Chairman Caldwell knew where the trouble lay , he succeeded In convincing the Illinois Central people that there had been no In tention to slight them or their request for a reduced California rntc , and the railroad finally acrced to hold In abeyance Its notice of withdrawal until a special meeting of the association lines could be called to take up In special session the proposal for a cheap rate to California. Nothing will be done toward putting In the $100 rate until after the meeting of the association , but It Is very probable that If the request of the Illinois Central Is not granted It will put in the rate on Its awn responsibility. The advisory clearing house of the West ern Passenger association was to have held a meeting today with the officials of the See line In relation to the schedule of commis sion on emigrant business to see If It could not be adjusted In n manner agreeable to both sides of the controversy , but the matter was finally deferred to the date of the meet ing of the advisory committee ulth the trunk lines In Now York next week. There Is likely to bo a warm time at the meeting In New York , as the trunk lines have declared themselves to the effect that the presence of the orders of the western roads In their territory , while n source of great annoyance to them , has not been the moving cause which led them to upset the agreement be tween the two associations In relation to the emigrant traffic. The trunk lines declare j | that In conducting the affairs of the associa tion In New York the ngent of the two as sociations , who routes the emigrant business through the west , has become possessed of some of the secrets of the Trunk Line as sociation , which ho has given to the West ern Passenger association lines to the mani fest advantage of the latter lines. The west ern roads are Inclined to uphold their man In this , as they claim that nearly all the emigrant business which passes over the trunk lines Is worked up by the western lines , and that in giving them all the Infer mation In his possession their agent has done nothing more than his duty. The trunk lines are far from taking the same view of the matter , and It Is likely that a worm time will ensue at the meeting.

Conspiracy 1s charged ' nnd injury to personal feeling 's to bo soothed by the sum. Mrs. Llnton l the wife of Colonel Llnton , n distinguished officer of the British army , nml daughter of Colonel Flmllay , nn Ohio capitalist. Brown. Jansen & Co. of London , were hankers for Colonel Llnton , nnd after ho consolidation of his wife's , future with tlio Colonel's , much of the Flndlay business was transacted by the firm. For a further cause of action the plaintiff avers that not many months ago she- deposited with the London bankers a mortgage upon certain lands and tats In Douglas county , the same being left her for safekeeping. This paper the plaintiff alleges showed upon Its face that It was for a consideration of 1.10,000 , though she had never received any consideration for the same. In the course ot events Mrs , Llnton alleges that accidentally the mortgage' ' and UK notes which went with It fell Into the hands of the defendants , and that secretly and without her knowledges or consent they placed It on record In this county. Later on , she allege , they commenced fore closure proceedings and that she set up the claim of no consideration ana fraud , bring ing n suit which Is still pending In court. The plaintiff uvcrs that by reason ot the mortgage having been placed upon record and by reason of the foreclosure proceedings which have been Instituted her reputation has been seriously Impaired. In addition to asking for the Judgm nt she. prays that the mortgage may bo canceled nnd declared void , on the ground that It was secured by fraud , connivance and deceit.
