Argument Did Not Impress.

This argument does not impress us
favOTably. 1t may be conceded that so
long as property remains actually in ju-
dicial custody any one asserting a right
thereto or interest therein may intervene,
although the case in virtue of which jul
dlctal custody was acquired has passed to
final decree. In matters of Howard, 8
Wall. 1878 and cases cited. Williams
VS.. Morgan. Ill. Z. s., 684. 1t is well
settled doctrine that when court has
acquired the custody of property, persons
who assert an interest therein have a
right to apply to the court for relief, and
as general rule cannot obtain relief else
where
This court however. has never assumed
the custody of the stock of the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern companies,
but has studiouSly refrained from so doing.
1t did not assume to direct what should
be done with the stock in question when it
enjoined the Securities company from
voting it and the railway companies from
paying dividends thereon to the Securities
company. Nor was the bill, which was
filed by the government. one that placed
the stock in judicial custody when it was
filed. 1t was proceeding strictly in per-
Sonam which prayed the court to enioin
ment of certain unlawful objects and the
relief granted was confined to that end.
The intervention cannot be allowed on
the ground last stated.
Our conclusion is that the petitioners
should not be allowed to intervene and
import into the case new issues to be
lIleu. ne uue enforcement OF the decree
does not necesSl tate such action. and if
1t so happens that the decree of this court
in favor of the government creates a sit
uation which shall give rise to contro-
Versies between stockholders of the Sc
cuTitieS company as to how the holdings
of that company in the two railway COM
panies ought to be distributed, or what
should be done with such holdings, these
are questions which can be settled among
the stockholders themselves who are more
immediately concerned in these questions
and according to these principles of law
and equity which any court having general
common law and equity powers is compe-
tent to enforce. Leave to intervene is

granted unless necessary to preserve
some right which cannot otherwise be
protected. The court does not so con-
slider the one at bar as presenting dan
| ger to property rights, and further fails
to see that it is necessary to ensure a
| proper execution of the courts original
decree.
Doubt is expressed that it has power
to order innocent stockholders to sur
render their stock and take other stock
for it.
The government has expressed it's
satisfaction with the relief already OBJ
tanned and through it's attorney gen.
eral has said that it was at present
fully satisfied with the situation.
HISTORY OF THE ACTION.
The case was argued Tuesday and
Wednesday of last week before Judges
Walter H. Sanborn, Amos M. Thayer,
Willis Van Dervanter and William G..
Hook, and it practically involves the
ownership and control of the Northern
Pacific railroad, with the Burlington
ownership also involved. The argu-
ments, made at the federal building at
st. Paul, brought to this city such an
array Of eminent legal talent and so
stupendous stake was involved in
the litigation that the public interest
| in the hearing surpassed that in any
thing ever before brought before the
courts of the. Northwest. The court
room in the federal building was crowd
ed throughout the two days of argu-
ments by lawyers and laymen from all
over the country tributary to st. Paul
who evinced the keenest interest in the
great legal battle that was waged.
For the petitioners, E. H. Hartman,
w. L. Pierce and the Oregon Short
Line Railroad company, there appeared
as counsel William d. Guthrie, r. S.
Lovett, Maxfield Evarts and John N.
Baldwin.
For the defendants there was an even
greater array. Elihu Root, former sec
rotary of war; John c. Johnson. of
Philadelphia; Frank B. Kellogg, G. A.
Severance and George B. Young, of
| this city, representing the Northern
Securities company; f. B. Stetson, rep
resenting J. Pierpont Morgan; M. d.
| Grover, chief counsel for the Great
Northern and c. w. Bum, chief coun-
| sci for the Northern Pacific.
Interest centePed in the arguments
| advanced by MIR. Root and Mr.. Johnson
for the defendants, and in the speech of
| Mr.. Guthrie for the petitioners. The
| case was given to the court on Wednes-
day of last week, and it was later an
nounced that the decision would be
| handed down inside week. The
| Northern Securities meeting to decide
upon putting into effect the plan which
| this suit vainly tried to prevent will be
held at Hoboken, N j., April q, and it
was, of course. quite proper that the de-
cision should precede the date of this
| meeting.

New York, August 10 The three
performing elephants Roger, Alice,

arena, appear last Monday for the first
time IN Fighting the Flames" mt
Dreamland, Coney Island. 1t was
the first time they or any other ele-
plants were ever tried ont at fire
The elephants had been rehearsed to
take an active part in the fire scene
and the experiment was Il success.
When the alarm of fire was sounded
IN the hotel, Alice, near at hand was
directed by her trainer to the fire
alarm box in the street. She opened
the box aud sent in the alarm. The
three elephants, IN single file, started
for the scene of the fire, each animal
holding big fire bucket by its trunk
aud carrying fireman on its back.
Upon renching the hotel, the iiremen
descended from their mounts and
went about their work of resue. Rog-
er, the largest of the three elephants,
was called upon to carry a ladder to
the burning building. 1t was too hea-
w for him to carry so he dragged the
ladder Ia the tiremen. who raised it
against the building, Roger placed
his trunk on one of the rungs within
easy reach and held the ladder in pos

Roger was not a success as n nozzle
holder because the pressure of water

the wohbling. Everybody within a
radius of the end of the nozzle ran to
cover. for Roger began to wet every
thing within reach and then dropped
the nozzle in disgust,
When the fire was oxtinguished,
Alice aud Tom were haruessed to the
hose carriage. The two elephants
drew the carriage to the engine house
with Roger trailing behind, his trunk
resting npon the guard rail.

formed OF the extravaganza of the old
board and have an eye on all expend-
lures made under the new system and
all departures from the findings OF
Judge Shipman and the charge OF Judge
Swayze will be dealt with promptly and

All praise from the county IS due
Hon. r. S. Kuhl (who as long ago as
when he was a member of the State
Senate introduced a bill looking to tie
reduction of the number OF members of
the boards oftrecholders) who, together
with Alexander b. Allen, took up the
fight in the county and directed II for
the reduction, which the voters ratified
so handsomely At the polls. The gent
lemen above referred to did not stop
with the reduction of the board but set
the machinery in motion for the invest
igation and, together with george n.
Large, conducted it on the part OF the
petitioners to its successful conclusion.
1t will be remembered that the town
ship of Rartan, the home OF those
gentlemen, gave a majority of goo for
the new system, chiefly through the
efforts OF Mr.. Allen and Mr.. kuhl.
Raritan township will reap this year
saving of over $4,000 in her taxes alone,
and every other township and munlcip-
atty in the county will benefit by a
reduction. The city OF
Lambertvillc saves in her county tax
about $1,000 which means saving to
each individual taxpayer of $40 for
every thousand dollars upon which he
pays tax.
That the inves legation has been fully
justified no one will deny.
