RUMORS OF NEW
MERGER ACTION.
C. H. Venner of Boston Is
Said to Have Sued North
ern Securities Company
INJUNCTION MEASURES
1t Is Claimed the Suit Is
to Prevent a Distribution
of Stock to E. III. Hartman

NEW YORK, April 20-A report was
circulated to-day in this city to the
effect that new suit had been started
against the Northern Securities Com
pany, and that an order in the suit,
signed by Justice Geigerisch Of the Su-
preme Court, had been issued, return
able tomorrow, but Justice Geigerisch
said he had not signed any such order.
This new suit was said to have been
instituted by c. H. Venner of Boston,
who was interested in the suit brought
by the Continental Securities Company,
whose application for an injunction
against to-morrow's meeting of the
Northern Securities Company and
against the announced method for dis
tributing the holdings of railroad
stocks was denied by Vice Chancellor
Bergen of Jersey City on Monday
1t was later reported that copies of
an order directing E. II. Hartman and
the Union Pacific Railway to show
cause why they should not refuse to
accept the stock to be distributed to
them under the Hill plan were served
upon the counsel for Hartman and
upon the officers of rhe Northern Sc
curities Company, who must also ap-
pear in the action.
A conference of counsel on the Har-
riman side was held late in the after
noon at the Office of Kunn, Loeb &
Co. It was said afterward that no an
nouncement was ready as to the plan
of action to be taken.

HARTMAN FILES SUIT.
Brings Injunction Proceedings Against
Northern Securities Company.

TRENTON, N. j., April 20.-Suit has
been begun in the United States Circuit
Court for the New Jersey district
against the Northern Securities Com
pany by E. H. Hartman, Winslow S.
Pierce, the Oregon Short Line Railroad
Company and the Equitable Trust
Company of New York, trustee under
the Oregon Short Line participating
mortgage, to restrain the Northern Sc
curities Company from carrying out the
plan adopted by its directors for the
distribution of the stocks of the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific
stocks held in the treasury of the de-
fendant company. The facts in the
case as recited in the bill of complaint
cover substantially the same ground
upon which was based the intervention
suit in the United States suits in the
district of Minnesota, which was de-
cided on Tuesday adversely to the Har-
riman interests.
Judge Andrew Kirkpatrick to-day is
sued a temporary order restraining
the carrying out of the plan of distri-
button, and fixed next Monday, April
%, at IL a. m, in Trenton, for the hear
ing of the motion to make the injunc-
ton permanent.

to Develop Interesting Facts.
SALT LAKE, April 2O.-Some of the
interesting figures inside and outside
the Mormon church i'm Utah are to
give testimony before the Senate Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections
during the next few days. Revelations
are expected throwing considerable
more light on the practices Of the Nor
mon church in polygamy and politics.
Among those who are to give testimony
are Former Judge Orlando w. Powers.
who. as United States Judge for the
Territory, sentenced many poIygamists
to the penitentiary and who managed
the campaign which wrested Salt Lake
City from the control of the Mormons
in 1890. He will tell of Utah politics
from a gentle viewpoint. Among the
Mormons familiar with the inside
workings of the church there will be
Moses Thatcher, deposed apostle, and
Apostle John Henry Smith. the "politi-
cal apostle Brigham H. Roberts,
John Henry SmHh and Reed Smoot
are generally believed to have more
influence with President Joseph F.
Smith than any other persons. All
these will be asked about political con-
ditions, but some Of the witnesses will
be requested to tell about polygamous
relations entered into since the Wood
ruff manifesto of 1890 advising the
abandonment of polygamy.
