In a ruling handed down last nlRht bearing on tho two roads In California, the commission dented tho application of th Union Pnclflo for a WD-yeur lease of he Southern Pnclflo connecting link be tween Oakland and Barranicnto, known as the Bcnlcla Short Mho uml further declared that wlierevor the Southern Pa clflo granted thn Union Pacific's sub sidiary In California, tho Central Pacific, joint uso of Its terminal facilities nnd Industry tracks It should grant tho same privileges, to any other compollng line on similar terms. (outer VIimv lUihelil. These tuIIiirh bear out tho contention of tho Western Pacific, a Gould property, In tho hearing Just closed. Wostcrn Pacific attorneys claimed equal rights with tho Central Pacific for, their road and were upheld In each lnstanco In tho decision. On the main point the exclusive leaso of tho Bcnlcla Short Une the decision reads: "If the Southern Pacific grants tho Central Pacific tho rlgFit to uso tho Bcn lcla Short Lino it nlmlL accord to nil tho competing carriers llko privilege on simi lar terms." "This ruling of tho commission, together -with Its findings on other points In the application, and a general ntutement of Its attitude towards tho dissolution, wan telegraphed Immediately to Attorney General Wlckersham nt St. I.ouls, whore the dissolution plans aro being considered in the federal court. Telricrnm Sent let Court. trie telegram contained a strong crit icism ot the plans ns previously agreed on In Washington by Attorney Wlcker sham and tho railroad officials nnd an other method of bringing about tho dis solution is suggested. Instead of forcing tbe Southern Pacific to soil the Central Pacific lino from Ogden to San Fran cisco, 0)0 commission recommends that the Central Pacific bo leased for a long tarm of years by tho Union Pacific, thus making a through lino for the Union Pa cific from Omaha to San Francisco. This Idea Is Indicated In tho telrcrnm as fol lows: "Judge Irfivett testified that Imposition of conditions would rwjulro further ne gotiatlons and would defeat the plan, mil requested that it tile commission found uch course necessary, It would Indicate tho terms upon which It would approve those matters within Its Jurisdiction. "The commission objects to fcreaklny up the local system of the Southern Pn clflo In the state of California, Into two disassociated systems, with attendant Inconveniences to shippers, and suggest that your design to divest the Southern Pacific of a line from the coast to Odgon, which should bo competitive with Its Sunset line, could be brought about equally well with a lease to the I'nlon Pa cific of tho main line of the Central Pu clflc from Ogden to Sacramento, and thence by Stockton and Nile to Oakland, this leaving the Southern Paul tic In ron trol of the local system within the state of California. "If. however, yfter considering this matter you and the court are or the opln. ion the better plan Is for the Southern Pacific to sell the Central Pacific stock the commission will waive ltn objection The telegram continue that either in the basis of sal ot the stack or tho ina'.'i line by tho Union Pacific the commissi it will Insist on Its conditions on the Joint use of the Jienlola Short Une and MM terminals heretofore referred to. Other Itrqarsta Approved. The other requests contained in tSe joint application of the Southern and Cen tral Pacific respecting certain leusa atul trabsters In tho final dissolution contract were approved. These include the lowing: Lease by Central Pacific to Southern Pacific of It line from Tehama to tlie Oregon line for a term of J9 years.

NIV YORK, Feb. 36. -Julius Kruttsch nltt, chalriuiin of thn Southern Pacific company, said today that tho Union Pacific-Southern Pacific dissolution plan would "go by the board" nnd that a new plan would havo to bo evolved should the courts uphold the decision of thn California Stato Hallway commis sion, rendered nt Fan Francisco yester day. "If the decision of the California Btatc Hallway commission Is upheld by the circuit court nt St. Ioiils," reads a formal statement Issued by Mr Kruttsclmltt. "tho Union Pnclflc-Soutli- em dissolution plan goe by tho board mid negotiations will have to bo begun nil over ngaln from tho beginning. In a word, an entirely new plnu will have n be evolved. Tho commission ruling In cluded many rules which the Union Pa cific has bpen unable to uccept and which tho Southern Pacific, In Its turn, has found Impossible also of acceptance."

K.-Of Interest to the hundreds of thousands of foreigners raiding In the United States Is tho draft of u treaty submitted to the senate to dny by President Tnft, amending the ex isting Italian commercial treaty so as to afford ultenn ot Italian nationality in this country tnho same rights as na tive citizens. Under the favored nation clauso of their treaties, 'nearly every other country will have the right to claim the same privilege for their subjects re siding In America. Heretofore, under tho decisions supreme coTirt, It has been held that a non- j resident alien bus no right of action i against a corporation or individual where an Injury resulted In death. The treaty submitted todny, which really was an amendment to article 3 of the present Italian-American treaty, will meet this difficulty by specifically glvlnr to the relatives of heirs for a foreigner a right of action n case of injury, unrestricted on nccqunt. of natotnallty.
