President Mellen Shows His Hand
The Star publishes an interview with President Mellen of the Northern Pacific at Tacoma en route to Seattle. He threatens to abandon Seattle’s trade unless it grants water-front barricades and concessions, while promising $1.5 million for depots if no interference occurs. The piece argues for equality with Great Northern in a union depot or separate depots on the tide flats.

He detailed how money from saloon men and gamblers shaped the law and exposed the Louisville convention.
