Federal Supreme Court Upholds
His Contention in Sc
curities Case.

Washington, March Z The supreme
court Of the United States has affirmed
the decision Of the circuit court Of ap.
peais for the third circuit III the case
of Hartman vs.. the Northern Securi-
ties Company, Involving the distribu-
ton of shares III the Northern Securi-
ties Company. The decision is favor
able to the company.
The decision was announced by
Chief Justice Fuller. He delivered no
written opinion, but said one would be
filed later. There was no disst nting
opinion. The decree of the cir:uit
court of appeals, which is affirmed
merely reversed the decree Of the cir
cult court for the district of New Jer-
sey.
The latter court issued an ipjunc-
ton restraining the securities company
from transferring or distributing T ~, =
500 shares of the common stock of the
Northern Pacific hallway Company
acquired by the securities company in
the merger of the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific roads. The decree
was Wv W tiic Ciibiuu CouIb VI
appeals settling in Philadelphia, and
yesterday $ verdict sustains the revers-
ing decision.
Owns the Stock.
The court of appeals held in eff ect
that the securities company had be-
come the absolute equitable and legal
owner of the stock OF the railroad com
pany, and that the question of owner
ship had not been involved, or even
incidentally passed upon by the su-
preme court of the United States in
the government case for the dissolution
of the merger.
The susit was brought by E. H. Har-
riman, Winslow S. Pierce and other
owners of Northern Pacific stock held
10y the securities company to obtain
possession of the shares of stock orig
inally deposited with them, and to re-
strain the company from pursuing its
plan of distric button, which was to
give to each stock holder a proportional
amount of the stock of the two railway
companies.
The par value of the stock involved
was $50, 1851. The case was argued
only a week ago and the decision came
with promptness quite unexpected.

OCEAN PARK, Oct. 12.--According
to decision arrived at this morning
by the sanitary commission recently
appointed to investigate the unsatls-
factory workings of the city's new sep
tic tank, the Edison company must
henceforth use some other means to
dispose of it's sewage. The commission
found that the trouble was entirely
due to an indisposition on the part OF
the bacilli within the tank, the scien-
tiflc names of which are given as aero
bia and anuraerobia, to disseminate re-
fuse matter Of an oily or chemical
nature, such as is incidental to the
manufacture of gas. The report was
United States Engineer Dobbins OF the
Soldiers home, who has had twelve
years experience with all sorts of sep
tic tanks, to the effect that gas house
refuse unquestionably worked havoc
on the bacilli, uniting them for SER
vice. The commission was composed or

Saville and Lavayea, Shurtlef and
Smith.
