Modified Dissolution
' I Scheme
1
i St Loals, Mo . March 15. Chair
man Lovett of the Cnlon Pacific sya
un tern, announced in the federal court
here today thai the modified plan for
- I the dissolution of the Union Pacific
f I Southern Pacific had been abandoned,
because of the opposition of the ro II
H road Lommlflslnn
A a result of the abandonment of
the dissolution plans, It now is nec
essary for the representatives of the
Harriman Interests and the attorney
general to devls a new plan that
shall meet the approval of the Judges
of the Eighth federal circuit, who are
Bitting in this cas as tbe district
court of Utah.
C When the new plan will be ready
to submit. Judge Lovett did not Indi
cate, further than to say that the
supreme court had granted three
month? for compliance with ns dis
g f ioluMon decree. As the dissolution
T decree was handed down in the lal
51 ter part of December, it is thought
that the new plan will be de
,ft I within a few days.
Commission Opposes
The judge said the failure of the
M plan was due to the opposition of the
bf California railroad commission to the
tr traffic arrangemcntt contemplated be
lt tween the Southern Pacifii and the
is Lnion Pacific.
"This arrangement which provid
m ed for the preferential 1 n 1 - r liar, fce
traffic by the two roads in the use
SB of the short line between Oakland and
( Sacramento," said Judge Lovett in ad
Sje dressing the court, "applied only to
interstate traffic, concerning which
11 the California railroad commission has
I no Jurisdiction However, in order
II to satisfy the French banking lnter-
eets which hold a 160,000,000 loan
i against the Central Pacific, it is nec
C essary to lease the Central Pacific to
I the Union Pacific We recognize thai
t r this lease must have the approval
4 .t ihe Caiifornut railroad rommlsslon
I l in order to be valid, and for that rea
I son the opposition or the I
itmiiii-Mun prcfereritial tr.-.ffn
agreement makes it impossible for the
I Union Pacific to continue with the
1 f modified plan "
Judge Lovett Reviews Plan.
J Judge Lovett recited briefly ihe his-
2 tory of ihe negotiations between the
B attorney general and the railroad at
torney in an attempt to devise a plan
; that would conform to the dissolution
decree.
'After the plan was presented to
this coup on February he said,
"provlill'g for the lease by the Cen
' tral Pacific of the Southern Pacific
short lue, the attorney for the South
ern Pacific and Union Pacific sough'
I so to mo'Jir. Hi- plan as to meet the
approval of the California board.
"This piau wae outlined orally to
the attorney general, but was not re
IE duced to writing until late Wednesday
night. Soon thereafter we started for
St. Louis, trusting to find a full bench
I here and hoping thut th plan would
meet the approval of this court
Board Sends Telegram
"After my arrival here this morn

thla telegram was given to the rail

Presiding Judge Sanborn aHked Dis
trict Attorney Houts If it were sat-
II lefactory to the attorney general to
hold the final dissolution decree In
abeyance until a new plan could be

Accordingly the judges allowed the
