Chief Counsel Clough Says
Interests of Stockholders
VIII Be Fully Protected

NEW YORK, July 1S.-President
James j. Hill. of the Northern Securi-
ties Company, and Colonel w. P.
Clough, chief counsel, held a consulta-
ton to-day on the recent decision of
Judge Bradford, of the United States
District Court in Trenton, restraining
the Northern Securities from distribut-
ing it's assets pro rata until the trial
of the Hartman suit to compel the
holding company to give back to the
Hartman interests the identical
Northern Pacific Railway stock which
they put into the merger company.
Colonel Clough was asked after the
conference if President Hill had de-
cided to appeal from Judge Bradford's
decision and he said:
The decision on the petition of an
injunction does not decide the merits of
the decision. They are to be de-
termined later. We are not prepared
to make public vet exactly what steps
would be taken in view of the injunc-
ton. Suffice it to say now that the
interests of the stockholders of the
Northern Securities Company will be
fully protected by the move we have
in mind, that it will be made known
in a day or two"

SUBJECT OF MEDICAL TALK
DIR. Abrams Addresses Audience on
Tuberculosis" Advising Fresh
Air and SIMS RaVS

Aif anu SUN : Rays.
DR.. Albert Abrams spoke before a
large audience at the Academy of Sci
ences last night on tuberculosis, the
Great White Plague; Cause, Preven-
tion and Cure" After reviewing the
numerous methods adopted for the
cure of the dread ailment and telling
how most inventions give a temporary
relief and hope in all cases, the lecturer
advised fresh open air, the indulgence
of the suns rays and care. He urged
the practice of breathing, saying that
long, deep breaths are the beneficial
ones, while those that are short and
quick have not the slightest beneficial
effect on the lungs.
The theory that it is good to exercise
with and uplift the arms while in the
act of taking long breath the doctor
upset completely and advised that a
natural position with the chest expand
ed is the one favored from a medical
standpoint.
DR.. Abrams commended the local
Board of Health for it's adoption of pre-
cautions in cases of consumption and
also for it's provision to disinfect where
a room or house has been vacated by
a sufferer
