Northern Pacific, Settlement of
Which Involves the Control of the
Company.
Trenton, N. j., May 24.-Argument
was concluded before Judge Bradford
in the United States circuit court in
the case of the application OF E. H.
Hartman and Winslow f. Pierce TO
restrain the proposed plan OF distribu-
ton of the assets of the Northern Sc
curitles company, which was decided
by the United States supreme court
to be an illegal combination. The
concluding argument for the Northern
Securities company was made by
John G. Johnson of Philadelphia, and
w. d. Guthrie of New York closed the
argument on behalf of the complain
ants. The argument on both sides
turned largely on the subject as to the
title of the Northern Pacific stock
which Hartman and Pierce put into
the combination and which amounted
to about $79,000000. The main con-
tention of Mr.. johnson was that the
stock had become the absolute prop
erty of the Northern Securities COM
pany and that it was perfectly legal
for the Northern Securities company
to carry out the pro rata plan of dis
tribution upon which the company
had agreed Mr.. Guthrie's principal
point was that by reason Of the illegal
combination title to the Northern Pa
cifc stock had not passed from Harri-
man and Pierce and that in conse
quence they were entitled to have re-
turned to them the particular stock
which they put in the combination,

average yield is seven and o~ne-fourth

crop 24,070, 900, being he l'ghtest wheat
crop produced in the state since 1894.
This estimate was not reached until af-
ter careful research during which air.
