striving in the aaa w session of congress to obtain certain changes in your relations with too lim government what are the present conditions of iha the road in this respect just as they have been said mr adams significantly and the worst that they could be in some sense the so called bill which passed the housa woold have riven given us what we wanted of which the in most t important thing was freedom R from K the unreasonable restrictions of our charter which prevent us from zm tula ling the road as others do to tn suit the r requirements OM e cements of our business becente of the nia limitations of our chat charter we are made the continued prey of competing roads h are not so restricted tue tile bill from which we f ex expected relief is now tied up in th the e senate to so ou on see we are in the same box we have been all along lias has there been any neglect in the equipments of the road on this account as certain newspapers have I 1 charged was asked by the reporter no there has been more a spent t on the road than during any other since I 1 have been president asked concern concerning fog the rumors of bis his possible resignation president t adams said 1 I accepted the presidency of the road under protest so far as my personal wishes were concerned abo company has been asked repeatedly T to name a successor sr but no one seemed to be arai available lable whom it was disposed to with tho business the same conditions prevail today to day so far as I 1 know if the company has a change in contemplation 1 do not know of it but euch such information would be perfectly satisfactory to me when the train arrived in the depot another STAIN DAnn reporter approached pro ached mr adams and talked to broached Ero him im about the road in to general when asked about the deficiency cy in cars care and the inability of the union pacific to handle the trade president adams said the various newspapers have been criticizing criticising critic ising us to toa severely the trouble with the union pacific has been its inability to accurately measure the growing ca capacities of tha the west and northwest Korth west an and get got enough rolling stock on band hand and its track in a good condition to handle the increased traffic I 1 tell you the west is growing too fast we bad had not figured on such a tremendous business and yet we are not the only toni rushed for rolling stock tho the eastern lines are working to their utmost capacity and still the freight piles up the union pacific has ordered one hundred and seventy now locomotives or one lor for every other day from january last to the coming new year besides several thousand freight carlof ciraol which one thousand will be coal cars care these cars are coming in dail daily yand and being distributed tri buted to the sections where they are tire most needed the various load laid officials bava have been working night might and day trying to make the present equipment carry the bremen tremendous long local and you know how they have succeeded livery locomotive that could pull any cars care at all has his been sea made to da do double eirv service ice many that should hould have been thrown into the scrap pile were kept on the road roil until they actually broke down and had to ba be sent back to the shop the necessary r re of pairs made and the machine run 0 u again to help break the blockade care became everyday every day more scarce I 1 and the officials kept bending sending in ia their ordera which could not ba be filled by tho the manufacturers who were over I 1 run ran with previous orders how now our demands are being complied with and the cars are arriving speaking of the apparently neglected condition of the road bed president Pec ident adams said about this time the road began to get out of repair and cars and material with witla which to do tho tile work could not ba obtained tho tile union pacific bad several million tie ties cut and pied pi ed up in th abo I 1 mountains t I 1 a throughout the west an and northwest but the tile spring freshets fresh ets caused us by the rapid melting of the enow 0 caused great bodies of water to rush down the streams and burst our booms thus scattering ties broadcast and losing the entire winters work this calamity was heavily felt and the road was consequently partially crippled I 1 have just returned from provo cherel went to inspect inspects a large quantity lofties of ties they were of auch such an interior inferior quality that I 1 declined to accept them and we will have to look elee elsewhere where for our material of that class the thing wo we should have done when tho the freight began to corces pile to up was to have concentrated our forces more in certain localities and not try to do more than we could possibly po sibly manage the extensions have been ordered stopped and the cars and sad locomotives used there will be put on the lines moat moet in need of them it if the good weather continues for a short time the road will be placed in excell excellent ent shape material is is now beg inina to arrive strive and we will not have tho tile same trouble with lack of laborers and various other thing things the new now locomotives will be put on the fast as they arrive and the strain lessened these machines are not to relieve the tile old uld ones but are extra the coal coat blockade la is general idaho utah and part of J wyoming babp bey none and tho the little that does co come 8 in is imme immediately diatel 7 cobbled gobbled up every L car possible is being cent sent to the 0 mines nee and as 03 eoon soon as the thou band which I 1 mentioned are ready we will be able to handle the coal coat trade with ease all of 0 the shops have been ordered to repair the cars care on ori hand at once those that can be repaired crit will bo be riven given the preference and a larco large number will thus be added to oar our supply when asked regarding the liability of some of the higher officials cals losing their positions it ions sir mr adams eaid said that phe be had nothing to do with the department but that he know of no complaint com plaint beine being made
