rhe Nece.sIty of Mystery.

To be content in utter darkness and
ignorance is indeed unmanly, and
therefore we think that to love light
and find knowledge must be always
right. Yet (as in all matters before
observed) wherever pride has any
share in the work even knowledge and
light may be i'll pursued. knowledge
is good and light is good, yet man
persisted in seeking knowledge and
the moths perish in seeking light, and
if we who are crushed before the
moth will not accept such mystery as
is needful to us we shall perish in like
manner. None but the proud will
mourn over this, for we may always
know more if we choose by working
on, but the pleasure is. 1 think, to
humble people in knowing that the
journey is endless, the treasure mex

PRESIDENT HILL AGAIN
ON THE STAND.
Said That Exchange OF Great North

Company Stock Was In
dividunl Act.

ST. PAUL, MINI. October 20.-The adj
iourned hearing Of the government suit
against the so-called railway merger was
called to order by Special Examiner In
, eersoll at the Circuit Court In this city
to-day, and the entire day was given to
the direct testimony OF James 3. Hill. for
the defendants. The cross examination
had Just begun when the hearing adjourn
ed for the day.
Mr.. Hill went over much of the ground
previously covered by him In his testl-
mony before the Interstate Commerce
Commission, and in other suits similar
to this. but to-day he brought out more
fully the fact that the exchange OF Great
Northern stock for that Of the Northern
Securities Company was the individual
act Of individual shareholders. and dwe!t
at length on his statement that the whole
purpose OF the organization of the North
ern Securities Company was for the pro-
lection Of q great commerce with the
Orient, which the Northern lines had
sought to develop IN competition with the
transportation companies Of the world.
The circular of the Northern Securities
Company to shareholders Offering to ex-
change stock had heretofore been placed
in evidence but to-day the lawyers.
through Mr.. Hill. introduced personal
circular letter sent by him to numerous
Great Northern shareholders in answer to
injuries telling them that any action OF
theirs in exchanging their stock must be
their own individual action. and not be
influenced by him.
Mr. Hill will be again on the stand to-
morrow morning, and will be followed by
Colonel ". P. Clough, Frederick Weihaus-
er and other defendants or directors of
the defendant companies.

Mr.. ]. ". Gates says: The statment
has reached my ears that the minority
holders Of Louisville and Nashville stock
are not going TO be treated fairly. This
! believe TO be absolutely untrue. I have
great confidence in the value of L. & n
stock, and have considerable of it my
self. and / believe that the holders Of L.
d \. can rest assured that they will have
absolutely fair treatment at the hands of
the majority holders. l also believe they
have nothing to fear as to the ultimate
outcome Of their property. The company
is increasing its earnings and it is fair
to suppose that within a reasonable time
increased dividends will be paid and ] am
positive no attempt will be made to take
any of the rights from the minority hold
