THE N. S. OWNERSHIP
Judge Lovett Argues that Securities
90. Never Owned Disputed Stock.

OuuS9O ALOSSSO al SuNo ShAseO o>SuAAtASo
90. Never Owned Disputed Stock.
Judge r. S. Lovett Of New York,
general counsel for the Union Pacific
and Southern Pacific railways, spoke
for an hour and a half yesterday af-
ternoon in support Of the petition. Il
Judge Lovett was the first speaker
to distinguish between the two propo-
sitions, the right Of the petitioner to
file application for leave to intervene,
and the subject matter of the cOntro-
versy. He maintained that the court
was now concerned with the first prop
ositon only. The only question was
whether, assuming the facts stated in
the application to be true, the petit
TONERS make a prima facie case en-
titling them to the relief sought. If
| it is so held, then it will be time for
the facts to be inquired into. Counsel
can then examine the witnesses and
find what foundation there is for the
| statement Of Mr.. Nichols, secretary of
| the Northern Securities company, who
| is quoted by Mr.. Root as saying that
the Hill coterie of defendants will only
have % per cent Of Northern Pacific
and 20 per cent Of Great Northern
under the proposed distribution.
''The petitioner contends" said Judge
Lovett, that when the court rendered
| it's decree according to the prayer Of
| the attorney general, certain rights
accrued and certain responsibilities de-
volved on the, court which could, not
1 be controlled by the attorney general.
| The courts decree decided that the
/ Northern Securities company did not
/ own the stock and had no right OF
control over it. That being the case,
the title never having passed to the
Northern Securities company, that
company had no right to dispose Of it,
and the stock should return to the
original holders, just as they turned
it in.
/ Judge Lovett construed the courts
/ decree farther than Mr.. Root had
done. The court enjoined the Securi-
ties company from exercising, or at
i tempting to exercise, any control, su.
pervision or influence over the rail.
! way companies by virtue Of holding
; their stock. To give this decree eff
feet, he maintained, the stock mus
. be returned. They did not ask thu
court to wind up the Securities com
} pany. It still had life as a corpora
} ton and could make other invest
} ments for it's stockholders If 1t say
fit. But the Securities company hat
) no right to sell stock that it neve
) owned. and had no right, under TIL
: decree, to dispose Of it in any othe
way. Such a right would make
5 possible to nullifys the effect Of tn
; courts decree by another com ination
as the defendants are held to hay
done. The Securities company mus
return the stock to it's original holder
or else secure new order or deere

Iof the stock in some other way.

The action of snake venom on cold

ments. Three venoms were employed
viz, those of the cobra, water moe

frogs succumb easily to cobra ven

the other venoms. Turtles are more
susceptible to all venoms than the

brief absences. Senator Hoar of Mas
sachusetts, four years his senior, met
him in the lobby and chided him good
aaturealy for not attending strictly to
business when vital measures were be-
ing debated. You're fine young
man. said Mr. Hoar, ito absent your
self at such time and leave us old fell
lows, Cockrell and me and the rest, to
handle these matters"
You'll never be as old as l. said
Vest, IF you live fifty years longer"
Bless you, was born in 1926 and
was preparing for college before you
came into the world" said the Massa-
chusetts man
IF you were born in 1726 you
wouldn't be as old as l." said the Mis-
sourian. You and Cockrell will see
years, but you will never see age. You
haven't lived as lively as l have, and
am wishing sometimes that l hadn't"
