Yard, of Oroville, President of the Butte and Plumas Railroad, was interviewed to-day at the Golden Eagle Hotel by a Bee reporter. The principal object sought by the questioner was Mr.

Yard's opinion of the Salt Lake dispatch, published Wednesday, to the effect that the Western Pacific had abandoned work on its proposed line to Beck-with Pass. "I only know what the dispatch stated," said Mr. Yard, "but 1 am not surprised at the news. I assume it to be true. The Western Pacific, in my opinion, is a distinct line, but I can't say who is behind it.

W. J. Bartnett is the head man on this coast, but who is backing him remains to be discovered.

Xot only "Presumably the promoters of the Western Pacific have called a halt for funds," continued Mr. Yard. "Such a road as they have in contemplation cannot be built for less than $40,000,000, and the approaching Presidential campaign and a few other disturbing factors in the East have tightened the money market. I don't pretend to know where Mr.

Bartnett and his associates secured the money they have spent, but I do gravel to them. should educational interests prompt them to do so, but pride and interest in the advancement and welfare of the community should cause them to be active in the matter.

It had frequently been reported that Captain Roberts wanted to sell the Boca and Loyalton line, but he did not to $100,000, or even more, in a likely appearing scheme just to keep posted on its development, and to have representation if it panned out well. It is business for them to do so, and it may be that a good part of the money the West-, cm Pacific promoters have expended was secured in just this way. In reply to a question as to why the Bartnett people had failed to push their suit against him in the Marys-ville Land Oflice, Mr. Yard said: "Because we, the interested parties, hope to reach a businessman's agreement in the end. But no such agreement has yet been made.

I don't understand that the Western Pacific has let go all holds. It will keep pegging away, hoping for better days, and, naturally, with that object in view, it will not care to give up any advantages it now holds."

His surveyors had progressed as far as Mountain Meadows and might go further; that remained to be seen. There exists a vast stretch of rich country to be developed, and as the purpose of his road was to aid in just that very kind of work, he saw no reason, now, to say that it would be built just so far and no fui-ther.
