"I Is begging the question . " says the

SAN , FRANCISCO , Oct. IG.-Unlted States
Senator Thurston , counsel for the UnIon Pa-
cilc , Is In the cIty anti was asked what he
. toLht of tU reporL tht l Vadehts
were endeavoring to secure control of the
Union Pacilc ,
"IL II quite apparent to the ( most casual
observer , " said : Ir , Thurston , "that ( he'an -
Ilerblts must be having a say In the UnIon
Pacllc when such men as Chauncey : I
nepew and Marvin Huhlt are two of the
committee or five who are to reorganize the (
road's present Indebtellness I cannot swear
that the Vlrulerblts are going to take the
Union Pacilc , but I wouldn't be surprised Ir
the Vanderblls Ihould sooner or bier be
found to have an Influential voIce In the
property's direct management.
"I Is generally understood that the Vander-
hilts have a strong Influence In the Chicago ,
& Northwestern. The Ameses of 10ston and
the Ooulcs , Dlons and , Vanderblls of New
York probably own the bulk uf Union Pacific
sloc and litany or its bonds. I do not know
what understanding these people have among
themselves , but It mayor may not be slg-
nlneant that MarvIn ltugliitt president of the
Northwestern , Is I Union Plcilc director and
that the two roads are no\v being operated
under a close ( rime agrcement. "
C. I' . huntington denies emphatIcally that
the Vamlerblts are negotatur with him
relative to acquiring a lease of lie ( Central
Paclnc In order to use It In connection with
the Union Pacfc as an overland SYbtem Into
this state and cllr. He further states that
he would not lease the Central Pacllc to the (
Vanderblts or anybody else. lie wants to
keep I ns a part of his Southern pacilc
' .
s'slem.
During a conversation on the probability of
the ( Vanderblta taking control of [ the Union
Pacific Mr HuntIngton saId : "I would nol
be surprised 10 hear or the VamlerbLts taking
the active management of the Union Paclnc.
They have plenty of money to enable them to
do so and are able men. While 1 do not
know It to be I positive fact I understand
they hold conslcerable of the road's securIties. I
They arc aho supposed to be In control of
the Chicago & orthwestern. These facts i
mayor may not mean anything I Is none :
or my business , however and I have got ,
enough of mr own to attend to wIthout try- '
l to pr ) Into other people's affairs. '
"The Vanderbls have not caught to t lease
or get control of the Central Pacific. 'hey
have nothing to co wIth I. and , as far as
I know , do nol wish the property. I am not
anxious to part wih the Central Pacific.
We have always been on good terms with the (
Vanderbls , I they gel actual control of
the Union Pacifc I see no reason why we
shouhl nol be on god terms with them , I
they want to buIld Ilto Sail Francisco that
wi be their business not mine The UnIon
Paclne people have not asked us to como to
their assistance. H they had we mlghl have
endeavored to Join them In some scheme.
That Is all I can say on the uubject "
