The passage of the Milwaukee to
the Southern Pacific solves one of
the knottiest problems which has
troubled the western railroad 'situa-
ton since the famous Harriman-Hill
fight over the Burlington's control.
The future of the Milwaukee has
for years been disturbing question
both to the Hartman and the Hill
interests. The Southern Pacific's pur-
chase of the Milwaukee will not in
terfere with the prosecution of the
Mtlwaukee's plan to build to the Pa
cific coast. Mr.. Hartman has for
years sought northwestern coast out

plan will become the plant of Mr.. Har-
riman to fulfill the latter's desire in
that direction.

taoritatively stated that control of
the Chicago, Milwaukee. & st. Paul
has passed into the hands of E. H.
Hartman via the Southern Pacific
Railroad company, which is controlled
by The Union Pacific Railroad COM
pany, the main Hartman line.
Rumor to the effect that Hartman
sought to own the Milwaukee prop
erty has been heard on various &C.
casions of late, but not until today
could it be learned from a CONNIE
tent authority that there was good
foundation for the report.
1t Is not known that a deal has
been practically consummated by
which the Southern Pacific wal take
over enough Milwaukee stock to in
sure control. The terms on which it
Is secured are not positively known,
but they are believed to consist of
an exchange Of Southern Pacific pre-
ferred stock, share for share, and
500 per share cash for Milwaukee.
Whether the offer of exchange will
be extended to all the Milwaukee
stockholders cannot be ascertained.

The question of a medical mans
obligation of secrecy has again arisen
in the striking case at the Gironde
(F'rance) assizes. In 1868 two Janzac
doctors called to attend sick per.

criminal poisoning. They believed
that they knew the guilty person, but
hesitated to denounce him. They con.
suited their confreres, who said, "A

not universally held.
