HARTMAN LOSES.
Northern Securities Case Is De-
cided Against Him.

Philadelphia, Jan. S.-The United
States court of appeals for the Third
judicial district in an opinion fled
here today, reyerseS a decision of the
New Jersey circuit court, which re-
strained the Northern Securities COM
pany from distributing certain stock of
the North Pacific Railroad company.
The decision is a defeat for the inter-
est represented by e. H. Hartman.
By a decree of the New Jersey
court, the Northern Securities COM
pany was restrained from disposing of
$40, 800 shares of the common stock
of the Northern Pacific Railroad COM
pany, alleged to have been received
from e. r. Hartman and Winslow S..
Pierce, and of $4,000 shares Of the
common stock OF the, Northern Pacific
Railway company received by the
Northern Securities company from
the Northern Pacific company. To-
days decision, however, gives the
Northern Securities company the
right to dispose of the stock.
Hartman and Pierce. when the
Northern Securities company had
been declared by the United States
supreme court to be an illegal COM
bination, demanded the return of the
original stock they had contributed
at the time of the organization of the
combination. The Northern SecTri-
ties. company, it was claimed, intended
to make a pro rata distribution OF the
stock of the contributing company.
The opinion was written by Judge
DaHas. After reviewing the orEaniza-
tioa III the combination and its sub
sequent history, the decision says;
s'FIarr5znan averred that the shares
of railwi1y stock in question We're &C
ouired by tEe Securities company,
thai it would hold them as custodian,
depository, Ssrustee and owners OF SAID
shares were the parties who originally
exchanged the same for stock in the
Northern Securities company.
1.-THE Northern Securities company
claimed that it acquired the STOCK by
purchase and it owns the stock out
After quoting the resolution under
which the stock was acquired the
opinion says the resolution conteIn-
D1ated a purchase and not trust and
that the resolution was adopted at a
meeting at which Hartman was pres
emit The opinion continues;
1.-THE Northern Securities company
is the owner of 1887 ,594 shares or
tho stock of the Northern Pacific Rail-
1vav company which has been re-
strained from voting or receiving
dividends and in view OF this restraint
All narties agree that it should not
continue. The Northern Securities
COMPANY. accordingly proposes to as
sign them pro rata to its sharehold-
ers including not less than z,oOO per
sons whose shares are unquesuonably
acquired by purchase, and VINO are
not parties to this suit.
Hartman Says HonOrs Are Easy.

was Fort No. 3, where for three
months the Japanese occupied one
part of the fort while the Russians
occupied the other. They fought
ceaselessly assaulting each other.
