FIRST MOVE AGAINST STATE
HiII's Attorneys serve Notice TO Naeate
Service In Minnesotn's Sum-
mons and Complaint.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, April 13.-The FIRST
move Of the varied interests concerned in
the railway merger as against the suit
instituted by the state OF Minnesota in
the Ramsey district court has been taken
by President Hills attorneys.
They have served notice, upon Attorney
General Douglas. Of a motion to vacate
service in the summons and complaint Of
the state OF Minnesota against the North
ern Securities company and against Presi-
dent J. ], Hill of that corporation and OF
the Great Northern road.
The motion will come before the RAM
sey district court for argument one week
from today. 1t will be heard at special
term OF court. Just which one Of the
members OF the Ramsey bench will pre-
side has not yet been determined
The motion of the railways will be based
on the claim that the Northern Securities
company is a New Jersey corporation, and
as such is outside the jurisdiction OF the
Minnesota courts. 1t will also be argued
that James ]. Hills residence In this state
is merely personal, and as such he is moi
ameEable to the laws in the case, as he
would be under normal conditions.
The argument on next Saturday will not
affect the main question, as stated in the
bill complaint filed by the attorney gen.
eral.

FISH FAvoRS INJUNcTIoNs
says Railways VIII Hail with Delight
Any Method 90 Maintain
Rates.

CHICAGO. April 1~3.-President Fish
Of the Illinois Central road has been
watching closely the progress Of the gov
eminent in its attempt to compel the OBJ
servance Of published rates by the medium
OF iniunctions. says the Record Herald.
MIR. Fish is one OF the big railway men who
do not believe that the psnacea for rate
ills lies in legalized pooling.
Regarding the injunction method. the
Record-Herald quotes Mr.. Fish as saying:
The railroad managements of this coun-
try, without an exception, | believe, will
hall with delight any method which proves
effective In maintaining rates. Heretofore
everything which has been tried has been
more or less a failure and we are all hop
ing the remedy has at last been discovered.
AS to the right of the government to pro-
coed by injunction, l cannot speak. Legal
authorities seem to differ on the subject,
but II such right does exist and the in
junction proves an effective measure, the
railroads and the public shall have found
what they have long been seeking.
il is too early to express an opinion con-
corning the efficiency of the measure, and
Furthermore the right of the government
to employ the injunction in this way has
not been determined. | believe, however.
that the rate situation is now better
throughout the country than II has been
for years and j presume this excellent
condition is the result Of a wholesale fear
of the CO1rts mandate.

CoSGR0VE LOSES HIS SUIT
County Clerk Miller Denies that He
Employed PIaintin to
, Watch Ballots.

Dominick Cosgrove. who sued County
Clerk Harry c. Miller for 1922 for sery-
ices rendered during the late election con-
tests, found out In Justice Longs court Sat-
urday afternoon that he had no legal claim
against Miller and will be compelled to
pay the costs In the case. Cosgrove testi-
ned that he was employed by Miller to watch
over the ballot boxes containing the votes
OF the last election and to see that by no
hocus pocus were any of the ballots re-
moved or the boxes tempered with. He did
this for sixty long nights, during which
time Miller paid him 1915, which Cos.
grove claimed was t42. rs shy Of the amount
he earned. The county clerk denied that
he had employed Cosgrove TO watch over
the ballot boxes or any other boxes, but
acknowledged that he had given him some
money and at one time a ton of coal. When
these donations were made. Mr.. Miller said
he ~emphatically informed the plaintiff that
he was not giving him money as remunera-
ton for labor, but as an act OF kindness.
AS Cosgrove could not substantiate his
~testimoney, the court found for the defend
ant and taxed the costs onto the plaintin.

PENSION FOR MRS. M'KINLEY
Five Thousand Dollars . YeRr ApprO-
pristed TO widow of Late
President.


WASHINGTON. April 15.-The house
passed the bill granting a pension TO the
widow Of President Mckinley at $1,000 per
annaum.
The bill had previously passed the senate
and now goes to the president for sig
nature. Although favorable action on the
measure was unanimous, an inquiry by Mr..
Bell OF Colorado. as to the presidents for
such action led to animated discussion.
Mr.. Bell commended that many widows OF
poor soldiers we're without pensions. and
that Mrs. Mckinley had independent means.
making a pension unnecessary.
Mr.. Grosvenor OF Ohio severely criticised
Mr.. Bells position. Mr.. Richardson Of
Tennessee, and several other democratic
members, spoke for the bill as in line Of
precedent, Mr.. Kleeberg OF Texas, an ex-
confederate soldier. supporting It on the
ground that President Mckinley had wiped
out the last vestige Of sectionalism.
Mr.. Gaines OF Tennessee, asked why the
precedent was not observed in the case Of
Mrs. Harrison.
Mr.. Grosvenor said Mrs. Harrison had
been consulted, and action would doubtless
be taken. He pointed out, however, that
the cases were quite different.
Mr.. Bell explained that he had made no
objection to the pension. He merely called
attention to a lack Of pensions for many
widows OF humble soldiers, this amount
being sufficient to give an IS pension TO
ffty-two widows.
Mr.. Richardson OF Tennessee. said he had
seen granted several pensions to the widows
Of presidents. TIL custom had stood from
time immemorial. II this was the FIRST
case it might be desirable to stop and in
quire as to the need. But as this was a
time-honored precedent, Mr.. Richardson de-
clared he would be the last to break the
precedent in the case OF william Mckinley.
Mr.. Richardson announced himself emphatl-
cally in favor Of the bill.
Mr.. Kieeberg of Texas, declared that IL
no other reason this pension should be
passed because President Mckinley wiped
out the last vestige Of sectionalism. As
one who had worn the gray Mr.. Kleeberg
said he Joined in this act of justice to the
widow OF one who had worn the blue"
A vote was then taken on ordering the
bill to favorable report and without a dis
senting voice action was taken, which was
equivalent to passage Of the bill. The cal
endar was entirely cleared Of private pen
sion bills. all Of those reported being passed
by the house. III in all, and including that
to Mrs. Mckinley. At $3.50 the house ad
!ourned.

that excited universal discussion among

much discussed episode occurs at the open
