CHANCELLOR SAYS STOCK DIS
TRIeUTIoN SCHEME IS PER.
FEcTLY FAIR.

New York, April 20. - Vice Chan
cellor Bergen in Jersey City yesterday
dismissed the case against the North
ern Securities company and the dis
tribution of stock, and he sustained
the Northern Securities contention
that the suit was u~nwarranted. .
The suit was brought to secure a
restraining order against the an
nounced method of distribution OF
that company's holdings of Great
Northern and Northern Pacific rail
road stocks.
E. T. Nichols, secretary and treas
urer of the Northern Securities COM

the affidavit filed in the Minnesota

six days after the distribution of stack
had been decided upon.
Counsel Thompson, for the petition:
er, argued in support of the requested
injunction and Former Attorney Gen
eral John w. Griggs replied on behalf
of the Northern Securities company.
At the conclusion of the arguments.
Vice Chancellor Bergen dismissed the
application of the Continental Securf
ties company for an injunction. The
vice chancellor stated that there was
no question of the right of the North.
ern Securities company to reduce its
CAPITAL stock, which action was con-
coded
TIE Be Legitimate;
that no proof had been presented that
the proposed method of distribution Of
the stocks would be an injury to the
compliments; that the decision of the
United States circuit court of appeals
and of the United States supreme
court did not order any distribution OF
the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern railroad stock or describe any
method for their distribution, but that
the decree simply prevented the
Northern Securities company from
getting any benefit from the holding
of those stocks; that the stocks OF
those railroads are actual assets OF
the Northern Securities company and
may therefore be distributed to stock
holders, as in the opinion of the court
their sale in the market would be q
tremendous injury to the public vel
fare; and that the methods adopted
and heretofore announced for such
stock distribution is perfectly fair.
