DECISION IN MINNESOTA mrno,

Judge Lochren Holds the Or
cation of the Northern Seem,

Minnesota State Statutes.u
al Case Not Affe cited.

st. Paul, Aug. 3.-Judge Locbren :
the United States court. has hands,
down his decision in the case Of NJ
nesota vs.. The Northern Seconr;,;a
Company, the Great Northern Poi
way. the Northern Pacific Come
and j. j. Hill, as president of ps .ts
Northern Securities Company and indi
vidually, in which he sustained ~.
contentious of the defendants and d.
missed the bill Of complaint of tha
state. '
He finds that the Northern secr,;
ties Company has not violated the stat
laws forbidding the consolidation -
parallel and competing lines of railway
through it's ownership of the stock ~
the Great Northern and Northern po
cific RAILWAYS. He refuses the ininno
tons asked by the state of Minn4sota
to restrain the securities company from
voting the stock of the two railroad
companies, or either of them.
Based on Different Law
This decision affects the results Of
the federal governments victory in tho
federal court in no way whatever. The
federal suit involved the same defend.
ants and the same general state of facts
bnt was based on a. totally different
contention of law.
The federal suit in which the com.
pany was beaten was prosecuted for Vi.
olation of the Sherman antitrust Law
passed by the federal congress. The
state suit, in which the securities com.
pany wins was based on an allegation
that the defendants violated an act Of
the Minnesota legislature forbiddine
the consolidation of parallel and com.
peting lines of railway.
The hearing of the state suit was be.
gun Friday, June 5, of last year, before
Judge Lochren in the federal circuit
court. 1t was followed by the submits
sion of much testimony by both sides,
covering period of many months, in
which Frederick Ingersoll, of this city,
acted as referee. The final argument
lasted five days, during which Attorney
General Douglas, former Attorney Gen.
eral George b. Wilson and Attorney N.
d. Mum spoke for the state, and
George B. Young, M. d. Grover and c.
W Bum for the defendants. The case
was submitted Wednesday, June 10.
An appeal to the United States supreme
court is how pending in the federal suit.

Napoleonder.

In a translation Of two folk tales about Napoleon. one from the French and the other the Russian, George Ken nan says that Napoleonder is the Rus sian pee ants name for the emperor. It Is not quite clear why be has adopt cd it. Possibly the final syllable der has been added because to the ear Of the peasant Napoleon seems incom- plste, as "Alexan" would sound to us without the "der."
 The point of view of the two nation aldes differs amazingly. The French peasant regards Napoleon as a great leader and conqueror, aided, if not di- rectly sent, by God to show forth the power and glory of France.
 The Russian peasant more thought ful by nature as well as less excitable and cumulative. admits that the con queror was sent to earth by God to illustrate the divine nature of sympa- thy and pity through the cruelty of war. Both are convinced of his super natural origin. The Frenchman be- neyes that he was led by Q guiding star. The Russian argues that he was created by the devil. and that God, having given him a soul. to punish the Russian people for their sins, then made him a man by inspiring him with compassion

But the American wifei Henry James has summed up the American wife in just one sentence. He says
 'sThe American wife knows nothing of her husbands affairs, except that they are of not the slightest consequence" This Is both epigrammatic and exactly true. The American wife has quite genuine affection for her husband. Even after years of marriage have gone by she thinks of him with un- affected friendllnesa. He is SO useful She credits him with almost an the virtues, except perhaps the virtue of being interesting, and she overlooks that one defect of bis with charitable toleration. She sees him come and go each day with cloeklIke regularity. She vaguely knows what his profes- sion or vocation Is. She thinks better of him lf it Is a profession or vocation that Is generally regarded as quite ereditable. But this is practically all she knows or cares about it.-Ainslee'A
