End of long fight nears as union pacific tracks Portland gateway
Contracts prepared for signature by Union Pacific and Great Northern to permit through trains from Portland to Seattle over Northern Pacific routes. Northern Pacific president Howard Elliott says the papers are sent to New York for Union Pacific and to Hill for Great Northern signatures, with ratification expected soon. The Great Northern pushes passenger service enhancements on the Oriental Limited and expands communications, while Idaho and Oregon expansion plans mix with a looming rail war among Hill, Harriman and Burlington interests.
