 Admiral Lord Charles Beresford of the British navy was a party to the confer ence for a brief time. When questioned, the Admiral said his views regarding the combination were generally known. He had not been asked to participate in any conference, and his visit to MT. Morgan, he said, was only casual. He did discuss the subject off-hand with some of the gentlemen named, but could say noth- ing for publication.
 One of Mir. Morgan's partners said there would be no statement about the shipping combine today.

A Brave Fight and a Good Cause

Every one who likes bravery and ear nestness will admire Edgar Gardner Murphy, who is the leader in the move ment against child labor in the South. Dr. Murphy has written several strong pamphlets on the subject. The selfish interests opposing such humanitarian legislation are endeavoring to stem the tide, although the most intelligent of the textile interests no longer oppose these measures. In Tennessee there was little opposition to the child labor bills and they have not prevented the growth of the interests in this State.

the only witness today at the trial by

General Smith denied that he ever

He said he received the first news Of
the killings at Bashay, where Major
Waller and Lieutenant Day of the ma

He contends that neither the courts

fOrcemeut Of the police laws of Wash

the acts complained of is alleged to

of The state Of Washing on, and says;
every specific thing charged in the
bill of complaint as having been done
By the Northern Securities company
and its stockholders, and by the stock
holders of the two railway companies

sally conceded right in and over a per
soEal prOpeTty-the right to buy, sell.

receive dividends thereon Tie sug-
gested injury that Is feared is admitted
to spring from the fact that one per-
son. or a number IF persons who are
OF one purpose, hold a majority or con-
trolling interest in The stock Of two
competing lines of railway; a thing
not forbidden by the law of Washing
ton or any other state. 1t is certainly
an astonishing proposition that Wash

gigantic corporation has acquired a

companies operate roads in Washing

Mr. Griggs also makes the assertion
that. "as matter of faCt. none of de-
PENDANTS has combined or made any
contract for any Of she purposes
charged" Quoting the laws of Wash

Nothing in any of these sections

pea son CT a corporation, from acquiring
a majority of the stock in two Jmpet-
ing railway companies"
