Bum Holds Anti. Trust Act
Does Not Prohibit Con-
troll of Competing Line.
GRIGGs CLOSES CASE.
Former Attorney General Closes Ar.
sument for Northern Securities Co.
in Hearing in St. Louis Federal
Court.

st. Louis, March 20.-The counsel
the Northern Securities merger case
this forenoon the session being OPEN
ed by Attorney c. W., Bum, counsel
for the Northern Pacific railroad He
endeavored to demonstrate that the
antitrust act does not hold that it is
unlawful for one railway to control
a competing line.
Bum was followed by former At.
torney General Griggs, who summed
up and concluded the arguments for
the defendants.
Griggs Speaks.
In connection with the origin of the
Northern Securities Co., Attorney
Griggs said:
At the time the securities company
was formed there was no certainty
that majority OF the stock of either
OF the railroad companies would be
acquired by it. and it would have beer
formed and have continued if no Other
persons than the original projectors Of
the company had come in and ex
changed their stock. Such is the testi
mony of all persons participating ii
the organi2ati ton.
Go Farther Back.
The original conception, the primer
dial germ. out of which the Northern
securities grew. is to be found mucf
further back than the transactions o
1901. The dramatic incidents of tina
year merely fastened the development
and maturity OF the conception.
The purpose and intent of the orig
inators of the scheme cannot be sub
ject to dispute. 1t rests not only upol
! the sworn testimony of the most emf
| nent and successful business men 0
the country but it is substantiated b,
collateral facts that furnish the mos
, adequate and satisfactory reasons TO
I the action that was finally taken with
cut requiring rs to resort to an impu
tation of illegal and criminal motive.
