STATE OWNS
CANAL BASIN
Opinion Rendered in Suit
Against Lehinh Valley.
special TO The EVENING VIEWS.


Trenton, Feb 24:~-In an opinion
filed in the Court of Chancery today
by Vice Chancellor Stevens, Attorney
General Edmund Wilson wins a great
victory for the State Of New Jersey
in its suit against the Lehigh Valley
Railroad CO., which was brought in
1907 by former Attorney General Rob
ert H. McCarter against the railroad
company to test the latter's right of
ownership in the basin property of the
Morris and Essex Canal in Jersey
City. In his opinion Vice Chancellor
Stevens holds that the basin is owned
by New Jersey and is only held by
the Canal Company under a lease.
Inasmuch as the Lehigh Valley Rail-
road Co. only few days ago gave no
tice that they would introduce biIf
during the present session of the leg
islatnre for the abandonment of the
canal, which includes the basin prop
erty, it is more than probable that
legislation looking toward the abaR.
donment of the Morris Canal viii be
deferred for the present session Of the
legislature, SO as to allow the Court
of Errors and Appeals to pass upon
the decision of Vice Chancellor Stew
ems.
In his opinion the Vice Chancellor
sets out in minute detail history of
the basin property from the tims the
legislature by special act passed a
law giving permission to the Morris
Canal and Banking Company to build
the canal.

to the fact that there is great de-
mand for books written In foreign

historical characters of the Jewish race
who were instrumental in this coun-
try's welfare, facts generally unknown

rangements will be made to have Dr.
Peters here again in the near future.

Address in Part.
folloWlng his introduction, Dr. Pc
tiers talked along the lines Of his SUBJ
ject, as follows:
The last chapter of the Jews in
Spain is their first chapter on the con-
tinent of America. With the same hand
and the same pen, and on the same day
on which Ferdinand and Isabella sign
ed that infamous edict that drove
more than 100000 Jews from the land
of their birth because they declined to
have Christianity forced upon them,
they also signed articles of agreement
which authorized Christopher Columbus
to 60 forth in search of another
world, where, in the words Of Caste
lar, the distinguished Spanish publicist
Creation should be newborn, a haven
be afforded to the quickening, princi-
pie Of human liberty and a temple be;
reared to the God Of enfranchissmonf
and redeemed conscience.
Not jewels, but Jews were the real
financial basis of the first expedition Of
Columbus. Two secret Jews, Louis de
Santangel and Gabriel Sanchez, cnor-
mously rich, who enjoyed the favor OF
the King and Queen, supplied the funds
needed to it out 6salssrhaat sar&wess,

Decision Denying Permission
to Increase Rates Caused
Slump in Nall Street.
RAILROADS IN GOOD
CONDITION

8De0s0d DI Untte0 f'reae WIS.,.
New York, Feb. 24:Speculative
stock, like Reading. st. Paul, Lehigh
Valley and the Hartman shares,
yielded at the opening of the stock
market today, carrying the entire
list downward from one to over six
points. There was an avalanche OF
selling orders AS the result OF the
decision of the Interstate Commerce
Commission refusing to grant the
railroads permission to increase
their rates. Big brokers, however,
believe the decentralization will not
last long. Experts admitted the
outlook was not bad despite the ef-
forts OF the railroad magrates to
make the public think so 1t was
pointed out that the decision show
ed all railways In excellent financial
condition. Some actually able to
increase their dividends on present
earnings.
1t is generally believed that the
furry will not last over a day or
two and then the railroads will go
ahead with contemplated improve
ments. Wall street believes the
roads will select certain commodf-
ties on which the rate is low and
ask permission to make an increase.
Towards noon the market as
sumed a bullish attitude, stocks re-
covering from one to two points
from the low level.
The executive officers and general
counsel OF the railroads will meet
here Monday to determine what ac-
tion will be taken regarding the In
terstate Commerce Commissions de-
cision In tn freight rate cases.
