Holton looked at the other steadily

over him.

Senate Investigation of Lob bylsts and LObbies to Be Reopened With Many Prominent Witnesses on Hand
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIspArcH1

l ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1 1 NASHlNGTON, June 30.-Investi- | satloh or lobbyists and lobbies by the
 senate will reopen Wednesday with d number of prominent Wall street
 men as witnesses Chairman Over
 man of the special committee decided 1 late today after a talk with the pres | ident and informal conferences with i his committee associates to renew l activity at once instead of waiting | untll the eighth as he had planned. The claims of Martin NJ. MulhalL i of Baltimore, that as q lobbyist for the National Association of Manu- lecturers he had for years maintained close relations with certain mem bers of congress and financed their cam paign for reelection, so intensified feeling in congressional circles that the lobby committee determined to proceed at once to interrogate per sons connected with any recent lobby disclosure as rapidly as they could be heard
 Witnesses for Wednesday include Paul Cravath. Lewis C. Ledyard a prominent New York lawyer and David Lamar, Wall street financial man. The investigation will center about the charges made recently by Robert $. LoVett, of the Union Pac- fife, that many New York financiers and lawyers had been approached over the telephone by lobbyists and per sons representing themselves to be members of congress.
 Until this branch of the inquiry is disposed of the committee will prob ably not take up the more recent dis closures of Mulhall. who is under subpoena to appear on July s.
 Steps already have been taken by the senate committee to get posses sion of the letters and papers that Mulhal preserved bearing upon his alleged operations as a lobbyist. Sub pOenas were issued today for James A Emery, whom Mulhall described in his article as the "chief lobbyist" for the National Association of Manu- lecturers in Washington, for J H. McMichael former chief page in the house whom Mulhall claimed is in the employ of the Manufacturers Association, and for a number Of others named by Mulhall as active in the affairs of the association and in connection with efforts to influence legiSlation or control the elections of congress-
 Demands from the members of the house for a separate investigation or the Mulhan charges by a speclal committee were made in many quar- ters today Resolutions are expected at the session on Wednesday calling for a special committee of investiga- tion
 Late today Michael McMichael, for mer chief page, now capitol elevator operator. was taken into custody by Deputy Sergeans- -at-Arms Halsey ana carried before Chairman OVerman. lie -1as released on a promise to appear on July &, but nominally to remaln in the custody of the officer.

TAKING STOCK IN THE CITY
Municipal Bonds Offered to Citizens

Many cities with bond issues on their hands have been strongly mn I pressed with the growth of the sen ! timent that it is q good thlng Tor 1 municipality to have it's securities | distributed among it's own people- Within the last two weeks depart ment stores in St. Paul and New York City have been offering bonoS for sale over their counters as other roercbandise Minneapolis is about
 to adopt the same scheme. Philadel- phia has sold millions Of its secufllleS direct to the people.
 In St Paul, within five hours dl- vided between two days, a merchant sold S123.OOO worth of improvement bonds in values of $10O and Sooo- James J. Hill was so pleased at the exhibition of public confidence that

 which initiated the St Paul scheme

provides that the Union Pacific shall [ exchange 38,O0O, 900 of it's 126,OOO, 900
 holdings in the Southern Pacific for
 the Pennsylvania railroad entire hold
 ings in the Baltimore and Ohio virtu- ally of an equal amount and that the remaining SS,000, 900 be sold to the gen
 eraI public through the Central Trust company of New York. No present
 stock holders of the Union Pacific con-
 tinung as such may buy the southern Pacific stock so sold. The transaction 1 will begin November l, 1913 and if not ! complete by January l. 1916 the court will direct the disposition of the South ern Pacific stock remaining unsold. By the decision today the court dis regarded the desire of the attorney general that the final decision be with 1 held for the interpOsing of objections by interested parties to which portion of the attorney generals plan LOOmis
 made objection, as to the hearing to- day as unfair to the road. The attOr-
 ney general also asked this connection
 be publication plan as in the American Tobacco company case calling the at tentiOn of interested parties to the Ob- jection that might be made but this was also overruled by the handing down of the decree.
 We deem the decree of dissolution is more necessary at this time than any other action" said Judge Sanborn after announcing the decree.
 The government however, in the plan presented today and approved by the court expressly stipulateS that should any illegal conditions arise from the exchange of stock either under the eX- isitng or future legislation or the fu- ture interpretation by the courts of the present statutes, the government would have the right freely to assail" the ar ! engagements, In presenting the plan to the court today LoOmis said:
 This is the third and amended plan |, for dissolution and is offered as sub l stitutes for previous plans. It differs , from the others in the provision for the / sale of the 8S.00O0OO of stock through :: trustee under the direction of the court ! It also provides a speedier method of securing certificates of stock. Previ- | Ous plans contemplated the completion ! of dissolution in five years. By the throwing of restrictions about the use l of stock certificates this plan will make it possible to complete the dissolution , by January l, 1916"
 Witnesses were examined in all parts [ of the United States and their evidence | was submitted to the circuit court and { in October 1910 the case was argued at
Arizona republican., 1913-07-01

1 St. Paul. On June 24, 1911 the circuit
 court handed down it's decision. The
 majority of the court held that the case
 of the government was not sustained by Judge Hook, filed a dissenting
 opinion holding that the merger of the
 two railway systems was a violation
 of the Sherman antitrust law. The government appealed the case to the
 supreme court from the decision of the circuit court and in December 1912 the
 supreme court handed down a decree
 reversing the lower court and uphold
 ing in the main the opinion of Judge
 Hook sending the case back to the
 federal court for the district of Utah for the enforcement of a decree dis solving the merger
 Between the time of filing the origin al suit and the decree of the supreme court congress abolished the circuit courts and assigned their jurisdiction to the district courts providing that the circuit judges, who constitute the cir cult court, should sit also a. district judges. It was under this law that the circuit judges in this case sat as the district court of Utah.
 After the first tentative plan of dis solution presented to the court Of St Louis on February 29, 1913 a number of modes of procedure providing for the separation interests of the two roads were suggested to all of which there were objections.
 The principal point upon which the government and railroad representa- tIVeS were unable to agree was the | of the Union Pacific holdings in the Southern Pacific stock amount ing to $126,000,00O In March with the | change of administration Attorney | General McReYnOlds succeeded AttOr- | ney General Wickersham in the case.
 On April 21, 1913 the representatives i of the Union Pacific made application [ to Judges Sanborn, Hook and Smith al St. Paul for an extension of the time i within which to present plan of dis The judges recommended to i the supreme court of the United States ] that such extension should be granted ] and shortly after the supreme court | placed as the time limit July l, 1913.
 June F 1913, two plans for the | of the roads was presented | before Judges SanbOrn, Hook and Smith, at the hearing at St. Paul at which Attorney General McReynoldS appeared in person for the government
 Objections were made to the plans in part but out of the suggestion made them that the Southern Pacific stock be traded for the Pennsylvania hold ings in the Baltimore and Ohio came the plan agreed to both by the AttOr- ney General and attorneys for the rail- road finally in the federal court.
