Springfield, ILL.,, April s.-That Gov
ernor Deneen is planning to second
the efforts OF President Roosevelt in
investigating the manipulation Of rail
roads by 4. II. Hartman and other
railroad managers, is evidenced in an
opinion handed to Governor Deneen
by Attorney General Stead.
The opinion treats of the manipu-
lations Of the Chicago & Alton proper
ties within the last few years by Har-
riman and some of his financial asso-
ciates, including G. J. Gould, James
stillman and Mortimer L. Schiff. 1t is
given in response to a request COM
municated from Governor Deneen
March % last (soon after the return
of Governor Deneen and Attorney
General Stead from a conference with
President Roosevelt at Washington
in which the attorney general is asked
to advise what his conclusions are In
the matter and what action, If any,
is contemplated by the legal depart
ment of the state.
After setting out at some length the
various manipulatiOns to which the
railroad corporations and properties
forming the Alton system were sub
je0ted. Attorney General Stead con-
cludes there IL not the least doubt that
a civil remedy exists against the
"financiers who have wrecked this
prosperous railroad company. and. at
the expense Of innocent stockholders
and bondholders, have gathered to
themselves a harvest OF millions of
dollars"
Mr.. Stead is doubtful however
whether 1t is the province Of the state
Of Illinois to enforce the remedy. The
revocation of the company's charter
which apparently would be the nat
ural procedure on the part of the
state, would bring most of the suffer
ing upon innocent stockholders, Har-
riman and his Wall street friends hav-
ing already unloaded large part Of
their holdings.
Mr.. Stead incdines to the belief that
the remedy lies with the company
itself. or in the event of its refusal to
act, with some one or more of its
stockholders. This conclusion, how
ever, is not final, for the attorney gen
eral specifically states that II he
should become satisfied upon further
investigation that an effective remedy
can be enforced by the state, he shall
not hesitate to institute proceedings.
No opinion is expressed as to whether
the members Of the Hartman syndi-
cate are criminally liable under the
statutes OF Illinois.
