The application of the Midland Ter
minal railway, the Florence X Cripple
Greek railway. the Metallic Extraction
Company, and the other companies
that were enjoined by Judge Steven
son in November from perfecting their
alleged sale and reorganization Mt the
suit of the attorney general, by direc-
tion of Governor Thomas. for the disso-
luton of the injunction. came ON in
the District Court before Judge y. Wal
ter Dixon of Pueblo. who was called I'm
TO hear the application. After presenta-
tion of evidence and argument by the
attorney, Judge Dixon held that the
state had wholly failed TO sustain the
allegations of its bill. That IL appeared
practically without contradiction that
there was no purpose whatever TO con-
solidate the lines of the two railway
companies but that the intention was
TO maintain an organization by the sew
eral corporations distinct and to oper-
ate each under It's separate and dis
tinct boards of directors and officers.
He further held that the sales of the
stock and securities of the several cor
porations were actual and bona fide
and that he knew of no law that pro-.
hibited either an individual or com
pany from purchasing the stocks of
corporations and owning them and u.s.
ing them in n legitimate manner. He
further said that the facts of the case
as established did not bring the trans
action under the head either of trust
or monopoly and there was nothing TO
show that 1t was violation of the
constitution or laws of the state.
