The Northern Paclflo’l President Hopes to .

See Harmony Soon.

TACOMA, Oct. 4,—Brayton Ives, presi-
dent of the Northern Pacific, is here.“ In
an interview regarding yesterday’s pro-
ceedings, he said:

“Judge Hanford’s action marks the
termination of a receivership which, in
many respects, is unique in the history of
American railroads. Formed, as it Was,
to perpetuate the influence of the wreck-
ers, it secured, or at all events it seemed
to the public to have secured, the friendly
protection of the United States court.
Without intending to speak disrespectfully
of Judge Jenkins, I must say that when-
ever we appeared in his court as petition-
ers for relief we seemed to find ourselves
at the outset in this position of wrongdo-
ers. instead of sufferers of wrong. It
would not be proper for me to make any
reflections on J udgc Jenkins’ court within
the last week, as I have no doubt he acted
according to his sense of right. I must
say, howover, that if he had wished to
shield a. party of men charged with wrong-
doing, he could not have taken atmore efli-
cicnt course. I believe, however, that
Judge Hanford’s action will result in the
near future in harmony of action among
the various interests.” .

some gunpowder and 16 cartridges of dy-
namite. The insurgents were 1,000 strong
and were commanded by the Dominican
Brigadier Gil.
