The Lion of Lucerne.

A great deal of anxiety is felt in the
country through the discovery that one
Of Switzerland's chief historical mon
uments. the Lion Of Lucerne, is threat
ened with destruction The lion, which
was chiseled from the solid sandstone
rock by Thorwaldsen in 1902, COM
memorates the massacre Of the Swiss
guard during the French revolution,
and as a work Of art is unique
1t is situated in rather damp sur
roundings, above a pool in the glacier
garden at Lucerne, and the water has
trickled through the sandstone, which
threatens to crumble and thus destroy
the statue. An expert has been ex-
aiming the rock, and by his advice it
has been decided to cut away the sur
rounding rock and isolate the lion.-

Pleaded Guilty of Foroery.

Omaha, Neb., Feb. 20.-Amos Could,
former cashier of the Platte Valley
State Bank of Bellwood, pleaded guilty
to the forgery of elevn notes, ranging in
amount from $3.50 to S1.400. He threw
himself upon the mercy of the court
saying that If released he and his
friends would soon make up his defal-
cations. In the course of his remarks
he admitted to the forgery of 100000 in
notes, but he said he could not tell
whether or not this was the total
amount of his forgeries. Judge Sorn-
berger evidently sympathized with
Gould's family. but told Gould that it
was unreasonable for him to ask light
sentence, for the imposition of a brief
punishment would cause others TO fol-
low in his steps.

VIOLATING PASS AGREEMENT.
Eastern Roads Are Not Sticking tc
Their Contracts.

Eastern hOadS ARE tNoe Sucking 10
Their Contracts.
Minneapolis, Feb. 20.-Reports from
the east indicate that the trunk lines
which solmenly agreed to give no man
q pass in 1902 are quietly loosenins
the strings. This has aroused much
interest in the twin cities, where spec
ulation has been rife as to the duration
of the famous agreement.
Not Only are some of the big lines
accused of issuing passes to railroad
officials. but the more serious charge is
made that passes have been granted
the traffic managers of industrial es-
Establishments to influence traffic. This
is considered evidence that the anti
pass agreement can not stand the pres
sure incident to the hot chase for
business.
An eastern railroad president is
quoted as saying that the trunk line
agreement on passes is proving I'M
satisfactory and that the next thirty
or sixty days may see 1t go to pieces.
None of the western roads, so far
as can be learned, have yet made any
material departure from the anti-pass
agreement since the first of the year.

Washington Feb. 20-Attorney Gen
cral Knox gave out this statement yes
terday:
within a very short time bill VIII
be fled by the United States to test the
legality of the merger of the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern systems
thru the fundamentally of the North
ern Securities Company. Some time
ago the president requested an opinion
as to the legality of this merger ana
have recently given him one to the ell
feet that in my judgment 1T violates the
provisions of the Sherman act OF 1871;
whereupon he directed that suitable ac-
ton should be taken to have the ques-
ton judiciously determined.
"a bill in equity is now course OF
preparation which will be filed within a
very short time which will ask that the
merger affected thru the exchange OF
shares of the Northern Securities Conn
pauy for shares of the two railroad
companies to their original holders. The
two railroad companies, the Northern
Securities Company. ]. Pierpont Nor
gan, and James j. Hill, and their asso-
ciate stockholders in the two companies
district in which the proceedings viii be
instituted has not yet been determined.
Most likely it Will be in Minnesota"
The attorney general did not discuss
the process by which he arrived at the
conclusion, but 1t is known that he be-
lieves that the merger of the Northern
railway systems does not differ in any
essential principles from the combina-
lions heretofore held by the courts to
exist potentially, at least. in restraint
of trade and as destructive of competi-
ton.
1t is pointed out that the supreme
court decided adversely in the trans
Missouri case and the Joint Traffic AS
sociation case. The point is also made
that the Sherman anti-trust law takes
no account of the intention of the per-
sons forming companies similar to those
cited; 1T prohibits combination which
affords the power, whether the power be
used or not. to control rates and destroy
competition. The attorney general holds
that under the circumstances the gov
ernments duty is to proceed against
the railway merger. The bill will prob
ably be filed within a week.
The supreme court of the United
States now has under consideration the
bill of complaint filed by the attorney
general of Minnesota, asking for an in
junction restraining the merger of the
two companies. The case was argued
three weeks ago and a decision is ex-
pected next Monday.
