Ex- Attorney General Griggs
Defends the Railroads In
terests at the Trial
TAKING OF EVIDENCE CONTINUED
Defense Attempts to Show Principal
Railways Got Control of Competing
Lines Before Passage of the Anti
Sherman Trust Act, Which Was Not
Intended to Cover Railway Combines.

New York, Nov. 1.-THE hearing of
the defense side in the suit of the
United States test of the alleged trans
fer of the control of the Great North
ern and Northern Pacific roads to the
Northern Securities company continued
today in this city.
Ex-Attorney General Griggs pre-
sented a statement that for years prior
50 1880 many of the principal railway
rcohpanies In the United States had
gotten control of competing lines and
that this fact was reported to the gov
ernment and was known to congress at
the time of the passage of the Sherman
antitrust act. Solicitor General Rich
ards objected to the acceptance of the
official reports of the railroads offered
in support of Griggs' statement. but
they went into the record, the special
examiner having no power to rule.
Captain John F.. Meany, editor of the
Railroad Manual, was called and Rich
ards objected te the testimony on the
ground that what was aimed at by it
was irrelevant. The solicitor general ar
Eued that the antitrust law undoubt-
edly refers to railroads and railroad
combinations and that if other railroad
companies had entered into such COM
bination to restrain trade, even before
the passage of the Sherman act, it was
no defense of any present violation OF
law.
Meany testified as to how the Rail
road Manual, of which he is editor, is
complied. Griggs put in evidence the
Manual for years, from 1871 TO 1901, in
elusive, and statistics of railways pub
lished by the interstate commerce COM
mission. Richards renewed his objec-
tons on the ground of irreleyancy'
Adjournment was taken until Nov. Il.
The case of the state of Minnesota
against the Northern Securities Com
pany will be discussed on the same day.

BUSY WITH CUBAN AFFAIRS.
Senator Plat Getting Matters Read,
to Present to Congress.

washington, D. c., Nov 12.-Senator
platt of Connecticut, chairman Of the
senate committee on relations with
Cuba. who is now in Washington, VIII
cal. on the secretary OF state peIore
he leaves town to learn what progress
has been made in the negotiations with
the Cuban government in regard to a
reciprocity treaty. The general 1act
is we'll known that the treaty was
some time ago drawn UP, but that there
is a question of the rate of tariff re-
mission to be allowed by the United
States in favor of Cuba. This matter
will be a subject of discussion between
Senator Platt and Secretary Hay. They
viii Immediately begin the task OF
assisting the president to carry out his
well known policy of securing tariff
concessions for Cuba along substan
TALLY the same lines as We're urged
during the last session.
The belief of the leading officials of
the administration and of influential
members of the senate is that several
of those senators and representatives
who were most conspicuous in oppos-
ing the proposed tariff concessions last
spring will not be heard in opposition
to this policy when the matter is
brought up in congress next winter
The tariff proposition is embarrassed
in the minds of certain members of the
senate Cuban committee by the fact
that the new republic has done abso-
lutely nothing toward negotiating
treaty to carry into effect the terms
of the so-called Platt amendment.
This law embodies the fundamental
conditions upon which the Cubans We're
allowed by the United States to set
up an independent government and
the wisest men in the administration
feel that it would be an injustice both
to ourselves and to foreign nations,
which expect to see a stable condition
of affairs maintained iE Cuba, to al
low the new republic to break faith
with the United States by not carrying
out the terms of the Platt amend
ment,

ton.
Kalispell. Mont, Nov. 12.-The rain
and sleet storm prevailing in this sec
tion for two days have made searcn
for Superintendent Egan very difhcult.
Ice formed as soon as the rain fell and
the timber was coated for over an men
thick. making the trees so heavy that it
was dangerous travelling thru the woods.
The snow in the mountains being ABOUT
three feet deep and covered with a thick
heavy crust. also added to the danger TO
all who attempted search.
Notwithstanding the difficulties ana
l1ardships to be encountered, Charles
F. Buckley, an old engineer and WOODS
man, with a picked party OF five men,
left for Pyramid Peak, southeast OF
Lake Five several miles. 1t was their
intention to locate an old cabin in that
section. They took provisions with
them, expecting to be absent three or
more days, and If possible discover
clue to the missing man.
Word was received last night that
from an old cabin about four miles from
the lake could be seen issuing what
looked like smoke. This cabin is known
to have provisions stored there. Should
Egan have reached this cabin, he un-
doubtedly can live several weeks, II he
is we'll.
Much anxiety is felt awaiting the re-
turn of Buckley. Upon his return Will
hinge the effort of further search.
Another party of twelve left kalis-
pell yesterday afternoon to lend all help
possible to the Buckley rescuing party.
They took with them provisions enough
to last several days. and will cover all
the territory heretofore gone over and
will extend in the direction of the old
cabin to be ready to answer any signals
from the Buckley people. Buckley and
his party are expected to return today
or tomorrow night.
The fact that it has showed almost
continually since Egan was lost would
make it Impossible for him to work his
way out, altho he would have been able
to reach the cabin before closed in.
Assistant General Superintendent
Kennedy arrived from ST. Paul last
night and has taken charge of the
search.
