The question to be decided by Secretary
Taft is whether the M-fchaugs' bridge
has passed into t5e control Of TIE TcrH;-
nal Association with the Eads bridge, III
violation OF its charter.
The charter OF the Merchants bridge,
authorized by an act OF Congress. pro-
yides that if Il passes into control Of #ay
corporation controlling The Lads bridge
it shall be taken IN charge by the
United States Government. II IS alleged
that the Terminal association, in effect
controls both bridges. thereby creating 4
monopoly OF interstate traffic facilities.
and because Of thi; the Government should
take possession OF the Merchants bridge.
