Quotes Combine Agreement.

1.-The combine referred to embraces
the grain exporters, other prominent
grain buyers and leading milling COM
panies of Portland Tacoma and Sc
attic. Evidences of their purpose to
make fiat prices is found in their writ
ten compact, of which l have a copy,
which says: The Portland committee
and the Puget sound committee shall
consult each day, early in the morn
ing, through their representatives, and
agrees on limits, which shall be sent
out by the various members at the
time and expires each evening at a
o'clock. Dated at Tacoma, Wash, Au-
gust IS, 1905"
Your zeal to bring about a sup
preston of this combination is GER
tainly commendable, and SO far as lies
within the law this office stands ready
to assist you in every way possible. In
your communication of November II,
1905, you cite the following cases:
Chesapeake & Ohio Fuel Co. VS.. Unit
ed States, is Federal Reporter, 619;
other United States courts to same eff
feet; United States VS.. Addystone Pipe
& Steel Co, IS Fed. Rep, 271; United
States VS.. Transmission Freight VS..
Joint Traffic Association, III L. S.,
sos; United States VS.. E. c. Knight &,
Co. 1876 L. s., /.
These cases furnish no assistance
so far as the state of Washington is
concerned. They are adjudications
upon what is known as the anti trust
act, enacted July ,, 1890, reading as
follows:
Every contract, combination in the
form of trust or otherwise, or conspir-
acy in restraint of trade or commerce
among the several states, or with for
eign nations, is thereby declared to be
illegal. Every person who shall make
any such contract or engage in any
such combination or conspiracy, shall
be deemed guilty Of a misdemeanor,
and, on conviction thereof, shall be
punished by a fine not exceeding $4,000
or by imprisonment not exceeding one
year, or by both said punishments, in
the discretion of the court

MEETS: DEFEAT
Decision Of Court in Northern Sc.
cureties Case Against
His Contention

PHILADELPHIA. Jan. 3. = The
United States court of appeals for the
Third district in an opinion filed here
today. reverses the decision of the New
Jersey circui. court which restrained
the Northern Securities company from
distributing certain stock of the
Northern Securities company. The de-
cision is a defeat for the interests rep
resented by F. H. Hartman. BY the
decree Of the New Jersey court the Sc
curities company was restrained from
dsposins of s7o,S2o shares of common
stock OF the Northern Pacific Railway
company alleged to have been received
from Hartman and Winslow S. Pierce
| and $4,000 shares of the same stock
received from the Northern Pacific
company. Today's decision gives the
Northern Securities company the RICH;
to dispose of this stock. Hartman anc
Pierce after the decision of the supreme
court which declared the Northern ST..
| curities company an Illegal combina.
ton. demanded the return of the orig
inal stock they had contributed at the
time of the organization of the COM
bination. This the Northern Securities
company refused. proposing to make a
pro rata division of the stock of the
contributing companies. which would
deprive Hartman of big block of
Northern Pacific stock
Judge George Gray of Delaware filed
dissenting opinion. He said:
" ldissent from the Judgment of tt.
majority OF this court. / do not think
the judge below exercised other than,
sound Judgment in granting the in
junction. Nothing but a clear convic
ton that the bill was without equity
would have justified the court below in
refusing the injunction"
NEW YORK, Jan. Be. II. Harri-
man. referring to the Philadelphia de-
cision. said:
'The matter has now been h"ecr.
four judges and so far it is an even
