THE MERGER CASE.

The question of jurisdiction of the
United States Supreme Court in the
matter of the State of Minnesota vs..
the Northern Securities Co., an ap-
plication for an Injunction to re-
strain the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific railroad companies
from merging their interests, will
be argued before that Court on Jan.
9th, and the general opinion of the
attorneys and others interested, who
have looked the matter up, is that
the highest court in the land will
insist that it has jurisdiction. In
deed, one of the best financial writ
ers, writing for an Eastern paper,
which paper has been warm advo-
cate OF the merger, contends that
the court can come to no other con-
clusion. This will be first blood
for Gov. VanSant and the State of
Minnesota.
Attorney General Douglas will
make the argument, on behalf of the
State, while the New York attor-
neys of the Northern Securities Co.,
together with the eminent St. Paul
counsel of the two roads greatly in
terested, will appear on behalf ~pf
the octopus.
AS soon as the Supreme Court de-
cides that it has jurisdiction it will
order the case to the calendar, or
fix special day for the hearing, on
which will be argued and submitted
the points directly at'issue-t is,
whether or not the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific have the right
to enter into a combination that will
stiae railroad competition in the
country through which they travel.

The financial statement occupies
over all of pages two and six of
this issue of The GAZETTE. It is the
largest financial statement ever is
sued in the history Of Redwood
county, and from the standpoint Of
labor and material itrequired almost
double the work to place it in type
as has previous statements, while
the material used was about one
third greater. These two features
ere brought on the order of Bank
Examiner Pope requiring auditors
to publish each voucher issued, to
gether with the number of the same,
requiring extra figures and extra
justification for almost every line.
The statement was put into type in
four days time in this Office, and
was the largest job that has ever
been accomplished by the same
number of employees within the
same length Of time. A small amount
of type was loaned by other Offices
to complete the work.

JUDGE FRAZER GRANTS MOTION

From Mondays Daily Gazette.
1t now only remains to be seen
whether l.. M. Hayden can obtain the
required amount of bond to secure his
release from the county Jail pending
his trial in the district court next
month for shooting John P. Mcbride,
while acting as police officer of the
city, on the night of the 18th of last
month.
AS published in Saturdays Ga
zette, his attorney, w. M. Johnston,
made a formal motion Saturday morn
ing for an order admitting his client
to bail. The motion vas not resisted
by the county attorney, but on the
contrary Mr.. Hathhorn said that he
believed the prisoner was entitled to
bail. Judge Fraser, before whom the
motion was made, declined to make
a ruling at that time, as he desired to
read the testimony brought out at the
inquest and announced that he would
give his decision at 10 o'clock this
morning.
AS he had business requiring his at
tention elsewhere, before the hour
fixed for rendering judgment Mr.
Hathhorn appeared in court and ask
ed that the matter be continued until
this afternoon at 2 o'clock.
At the latter hour Judge Fraser
rendered his decision. He said thai
from the evidence he believed the
prisoner should be permitted to give
bonds, as he considered the testimony
was not of a nature calculated to es
tablish the crime of murder in tht
first degree, and accordingly hxed LII
bond at the sum Of 100000.

An answer was filed this after
noon in the case of the Slater Brick
company VS.. A. Motschman, an. ac-
ton for debt. The defendant denies
that he is indebted to plaintiff in the
amount sued for, several hundred dol
lars, but admits that he does owe the
company $25, which he is prepared
to pay, he alleys. Therefore he asks
that judgment for that sum be award
ed plaintiff and that he be allowed the
amount of his costs.
John Graham was examined this
afternoon before a lunacy commits
sion composed of Chairman Parker

as the witnesses stated it. BY his
own admission it was established that
Graham has been an inmate of the
asylum, having been sent there a
few years ago from Butte. An order
for his commitment was issued.

Chicago, Nov. 3O.-William E.. Cur:
tbs, in a Washington special to the
Record-Herald, says:
'The administration will make no
further effort to secure possession OF
st. Thomas. If the Danish govern
ment chooses to revive the treaty and

the house of lords, for ratification,
President Roosevelt will be gratifed,

cause the two votes that prevented

came on a litter. The upper house OF
the Danish parliament consists OF Ut

'"The campaign against ratification
was organized and managed by the
Princess Marie of Orleans, daughter
of the Duke of Charities and wife of
Prince Waldemar, the youngest son
of the king of Denmark. 1t is a sig
nifcant fact that since the rejection
of the treaty Prince Waldemar has
been appointed president of a Ger
man-Danish company organized for
the development Of the Danish West
Indies.

BANKS AND CURRENCY.
Conference Of House Republicans
Called.

Washington, Nov. Boa confer
ente of the house republicans will, it
is expected, be held Tuesday for the
purpose of considering banking and
currency legislation. The bill on this
subject, which was reported last ses-
sion from the banking and currency
committee by Representative Fowler,
was sidetracked because it attempted
to cover too many questions. Mr..
Fowler has, it is understood, prepared
a new and much simplified measure
which he hopes to have adopted at the
coming session.
A number of leading bankers who
are opposed to the idea of allowing
national banks to issue currency on
what assets they may hold, because
of the wide fluctuations possible in
the value of such security, have pro,
posed a new plan to Mr.. Fowler,
which he has now under favorable on
| sideration.
In effect it provides that national
banks may issue currency on state
and municipal bonds which have been
approved by the secretary and comp
troller of the currency on payment of
a tax of Z per cent a year while the
currency is in circulation. This would,
it is claimed, furnish an emergency
currency in crop moving seasons or
other times when there was an ex'
traordinary demand for money.
Another feature of the plan pro
poses to authorize the secretary of the
treasury to deposit all surplus funds
of the treasury in banks and to re
ceive as security therefor state and
municipal bonds. At present the sec
rotary can only deposit internal rev
enue receipts. 1t is claimed that
bonds of this character are much
more staple in, value than collateral OF
the various kinds usually held by
banks could possibly be-.
