 WASHINGTON. March 26.--For self defense and self f-preservation the Cn- ion Pacific bought forty percent of the stock or the Southern Pacific, according to story told before the supreme court in the brief for the Cn- ion Pacific. filed in the government suit tO dissolve the Hartman mer- ger. Unwilling to be bottled up at ogden, the brief stated the Union Pa cific bought 37le per cent of the Southern Pacific stock in 1901. that the Southern Pacific should continue d friendly connection to Jhe Pacific ocean A majority of the stockholders of the Southern Pacific gave their confidence to the men who had achieved s0 much for the Union Pa cific anu yielded up the executive management of the Southern Pacific company to the nominee of the min oritY stockholders"
 In 1902 the fOrma ton of a hostile Wall street pooI'' to wrest control of the Southern Pacific from the Union Pacific caused the latter to raise its holding to forty-five Der cent.

 WASHINGTON, March 26.-Senator Stephenson. of Wisconsin. today won the first round in the battle over the validity of his seat in the senate when by vote of twenty nine to twenty seven the resolution of Jones. of Washington, declaring the senator it. legally elected. was rejected.
