Does not the consolidation of these rail-

ROBBERS BLOW
OPEN BANK VAULT
Six Masked Men Capture and
Gag the Waterman
NO CLEW To The BANDITS
Fireman and Waterman Were Bound
and Taken to the Composing
Rooms Of East ST. Louis
Stock Yard Reporter.

st. Louis, January 7-Six masked men
entered the National Stock Bank north
of East st. Louis last night and after
capturing and gagging the two night
watchmen and fireman at the plant and
blowing open the vaults with dynamite,
secured $4,000 In coin and currency with
which they decamped early today. For
nine hours from O'clock last night until
o'clock a. M, they were at work on
the vaults without being interferred with.
The entire East st. Louis police force,
aided by the st. Louis police, are guard
ing all the avenues of escape, but as yet
have obtained no clew to the whereabouts
of the robbers, who, 1t Is believed escaped
on horseback.
Lee Philpot, one of the watchmen, a
rough rider friend of President Roosevelt
and member of the well known Ken
lucky family Of that name, was the first
to meet with the robbers. He was stand
ing in the stock yards, near the Exchange
building, in which the bank is located
when he was addressed by three men,
who sprang out of a fence corner with
revolvers in their hands.

SEEKS To STOP
THE MERGER.
Attorney General Douglass Files
Bill Against Northern Sc
curity Company
PROPOSED CONSOLIDATION
IS TO EVADE THE LAW
Bill Askes II Roads Can Do Indirectly
What Law Says They Cannot
Do Directly-Would Hurt
the State.

Washington. January 7.-Attorney-Gen-
eral Wallace R. Douglass, of Minnesota,
filed today in the United States Supreme
Court the bill of complaint in the case
of the State of Minnesota, complainant,
against the Northern Securities Company
defendant.
1t is long document about 10000 words
covering thirty-two pages Of printed mat
ter. The bill first points out that the
state still owns more than 100000 acres
of public land, valued at more than S15
600 600, and traversed in part by the lines
of the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific Railroads. II the merger is effect
ed, these roads will cease to build spurs
into these lands.
The complainant alleges that the rate
on the immense shipm ents of wheat and
other merchandise over the lines Of the
two companies have been lower than will
be under any arrangement which con-
templates unity of control.
The Organization.
The Northern Securities Company, it is
set forth was organized by ]. J. Hill, w.
P. Clough. ]. P Morgan and "other as
sociates to the oratrix' to evade or avoid
the laws of Minnesota to effect con-
solidation of the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific. The owners Of a large
majority OF stock of the two systems
had agreed beforehand to transfer to the
new company 70 per cent of the stock
Of the two systems on terms, which are
set forth in full and to retire the pre-
ferred stock of the Northern Pacific. 1t
was agreed that pending the delivery
of the stock to the Northern Securities
Company, it should all be turned over
to James j. Hill or be under his control.
The Northern Securities Company, as
charged, does not intend to purchase this
stock, but simply to use it's own stock
in exchange therefor The company is
about to receive all the capital stock of
the Great Northern and Northern Paci-
fic. This, it is claimed. is part of a plan
whereby the two systems are to be con-
solidated and placed under the direction
of one man or board of directors, through
the defendant company, and thus bring
about and perpetuate monopoly in rail-
way traffic in Minnesota and a complete
consolidation of the two systems.
