ILLINOIS WINS BIG SUIT
Former state TreRsurers Must Return
1861 900 Fees and Interest
Illegally Retained.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, April 1.-THE state
OF Illinois won an important victory to-
day in a case which was instituted by
Governor Deneen against former State
Treasurer Henry Wolf of Chicago TO re-
cover fees alleged TO be due the state for
commissions retained by the state treas
urers and auditors of public accounts on
interest on county and municipal bonds
which they have collected from holders OF
bonds.
The suit against Wulf was made a test
case by agreement The amounts claimed
by the governor for the state are 1891 900
with interest OF 100000. Wulf was not
served with summons in the case in
time and the case was brought against
former Assistant State Treasurer Floyd
X, Whlttemore, one Of his bondsmen.
Whittemore entered a demurrer to the
statement of Attorney General Stead, who
appeared for the state on the ground that
II was not sufficient i'm law to create a
liability on the part Of the defendant
Judge Shirley overruled the demurrer Of
Whittemore. The court holds that the
statement and declaration, II proved,
would have entitled the state TO recover
on the amount sued for. Defendant has
admitted receiving the fees. but has denied
that he Is liable to the state for them,
and must now pay the amount or take the
case 70 supreme court.

MERGER CASE MUST BE TRIED
judge sanborn Rcverses ST. Louis
Court in suit Against Lighting
Concern.

ST. PAUL. Mimi, April 17.-Judge San
born, in the United states court of appeals,
today handed down an opinion in the case
Of Morgan Jones' appellant, against the
Missouri Edison F1ertrc company and
others. Tho cases involve the merger of
all the electric light and power companies
of st. Louis and n the statements Of tho
plaintiff are true involves an attempt to
freeze out by means Of alleged stock ma
nipulation some of the minority stockhold-
ers from tho merger.
This decision is on an appeal taken by
Jones from the decision Of the circuit court
of the eastern district Of Missouri on a
demurrer by the defendant companies.
The circuit court below sustained the de-
murrer and the decision of Judge Sanborn
today reverses that decree The arguments
on appeal were heard by Judges Hook and
Sanborn The alleged facts set forth in the
appellants brief, in substance, are that
the Northern American company, a New
Jersey corporation arranged to consolidate
all the electric light and power companies
operating in St. Louis in one company,
thereby dispensing with competition. The
North American company secured the
necessary three-fifths OF the shares of the
stock of the participating company re-
uuisite under the Missouri laws. 1t is al
legged that they then began scheme to
deprive Jones and few others of the
minority stockholders who owned preferred
stock in the Edison company and who did
not sell to the new corporation OF their
equity.
A S10OOOOOO corporation was formed and
common stock was bought up and the pre-
ferred deprecated until it fell to about
50 per cent of its par value and at the same
time effort was being made to increase the
value Of the common stock The plaintiffs
allege this was injuriotis to their holdings.
