of Cincinnati, Edward Lauterbach, of New
York, and Augustus E. Wilson, of Louis
vile, as attorneys for Talbot j. Taylor ct
al, is said to have had much to do with the
trouble on the New York Stock Exchange
this week While there have been many
briefs filed here this year during the litiga-
ton between the Keene and the Hartman
interests, 1t is stated by local brokers that
the proceedings this week were accepted
by the Hartman interests as declaration
of war.
The brief cited over FIVE hundred authori-
ties and consisted of about thirty thousand
words. 1t not only asked for a reversal
of the recent decision of Judge LurtOn in
refusing to restrain the voting or stock
held by the Union Pacific company at the
next annual election of the Southern Pa
cific company, but also charged such divert
ing of funds from the Southern Pacific to
the Central and Union Pacific as TO justify
judicial action. Many authorities were cited
to show that where majority of the stock
is used for the benefit of individuals rather
than of the company that receiverships are
justified.
1t is stated that the controlling interests
Of the Southern Pacific anticipated that
Talbot j, Taylor & Co. might in their next
movement make an application for re-
ceiver, and that war was then made on
them so that they could not continue to
hold the stock that has heretofore been
credited to their pool. Senator Foraker is
said to have been called East by his clients
soon after the brief was filed ,here this
week At any rate, he left for the East
some days ago and has not yet returned.
