THE GREAT MERGER SUIT.
It Is Beiag Heard in st. Louis Befc re
n Bench of Four United
States Judges.

st. Louis, March 20.-For the first
time in the history of the United States
courts, and by authority of a special
act of congress passed last Febru-
airy, four United States circuit judges
are sitting togetherto hear arguments
in a case, the trial being the fight of
the government against the Northern
Securities company of New Jersey, in
the celebrated merger suit Under
this special act the United States cir
cult court for the district of Minnesota
is holding its session in St. Louis, in
the appellate courtroom, and by this
arrangement the case can go imme-
diately from this court to the supreme
court of tbs United States, whereas in
the general court proceedings it would
necessarily go through the circuit
court of appeals and a delay of from
two to three years would probably en-
sue. The hearing of the case in St.
Louis is merely for the personal con-
venience of those concerned.
The four judges by whom the mer-
ger case is being argued are United
States Circuit Judges Caldwell, San
born, Thayer and Vendeventer, Judge
Caldwell presiding. The attorneys for
the government are Assistant Attor-
neys General James NJ. Beck and Will
liam II. Day, and Special Counsel D. T.
Watson, of P%ittsburg, United States
Attorney D. P. Dyer, of ST. Louis, as
sisting. For. the Northern Securities
company are former Attorney General
John W. Griggs, former Judge George
B. Young, Of St. Paul, M. d. Grover,
general attorney for the Great North.
ern railroad, and c. W. Bum, general
attorney for the Northern Pacific.
St. Louis, March 2O.-Argument fol
the Northern Securities company in
the merger case was resumed by
Judge George B. Young in the United
States circuit court for the district Of
Minnesota, sitting here, at ten O'Clock
Thursday morning. Attorney Young
took up the reasons why the Burling
ton system was purchased by the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern
systems. He stated he would occup,
the entire forenoon session.
