DISSOLUTION OF
BIG RAILROADS
is TIE QUESTION

ST. Paul Mimi, April 22.-Sugges'
tons concerning the dissolution of the
/ Union Pacific, Southern Pacific rail-
way merger with regard to the plan
informally presented by Robert S.
Lovett, representing the Union Pacif-
| ic, were made by United States Cir
cult Judges Walter H. Sanborn, VIM.
C. Hook and Walter l. Smith to Mr..
Lovett last night and made public to-
day. The statement says:
Circuit Court Judges Sanborn,
Hook and Smith are not concerning
themselves regarding the sale of Cen
tral Pacific stock as this phase Of the
situation was not mentioned in the
tentative plan, but are confining their
attention to the disposition of the
$126, ,650,000 of Southern Pacific stock
which is now unlawfully held by the
Union Pacific railroad company. In
this connection the following sugges-
tions have been submitted by the
judges to counsel of the Union Pacif
/ ic and SO District Attorney Houpt of
st. Paul representing the government,
as guidance in future dissolution pro-
ceedings:
Il. Any plan for disposing of the
$126, 100000 of Southern Pacific stock
owned by the Union Pacific, should
have regards to the amount of the
Southern Pacific stock already owned
by Union Pacific stockholders, so that
the present holdings of these stock
holders as a body shall not, by the af-
firmative action of this court, be in
creased to the point of practical con-
troll of the competing company.
"2. In the memorandum of March
1, 1913 submitted by counsel for the
Union Pacific company, to very large
extent the $4,000 individual stock
holders of the Union Pacific, are also
included among the $4,000 stockhold-
ers of the Southern Pacific company.
"3. 1t was intmated at a time
when it was supposed that Union Pa
ciiic stockholders did not hold more
than $50,000,000 of the stock of the
more than $4O,O00000 of the Southern
Pacific stock should be transferred to
Union Pacific stockholders 1t now
appears that the stock books of the
two companies of 1913 show that
4,440 Union Pacific stockholders own
$92,632 600 of Southern Pacific stock
exclusive of the $126,650,O0O of stock
involved in this suit. Among these
4,440 stockholders are brokerage con-
Germs whose principals are undisclos-
ed, but if they were excluded the fact
would still remain that individual
Union Pacific stockholders own
large amount of Southern Pacific
stock. In view of these facts it seems.
that the disposition of as much as
SAC, 100000 of Southern Pacific, with
voting power to the stockholders OF
the Union Pacific company might
give practical control of that company
to Union Pacific stockholders and the
question of which proportion if any,
of the Southern Pacific stock may be
safely transferred to them suggested
for an armament and consideration.

London, April 22.--"An arson squad

BELGIUM DECIDES
TO COMPROMISE
WITH STRIKERS
GOVERNMENT ACCEPTS LIBERAL
LEADERS, RESOLUTION WHICH
WILL END WAR; COSTING S..
100000 A DAY.
BATTLE WAS OVER
MANHOOD SUFFRAGE

Brussels, April 22-Premier Chas
De Brouqueville announced this aft
ernoon in the chamber of deputies
that the government had accepted
with an unimportant amendment, the
resolution introduced by +. Mason,
the liberal leader providing for a
compromise. This means that the
strike will end at once.
The chamber of deputies later
adopted M. Masson's resolution with
the amendment moved by the pre-
mier, condemning the principle of the
general strike.
WORkMEN WIN OUT.
Brussels, April 22-The political
dustry and commerce at standstill
for ten days, was today brought to a
conclusion favorable to the workmen,
nearly hal ia million of whom laid
down their tools to enforce their de-
mand fo requal suffrage.
The leaders of the Socialist trades
unions and the followers gained their
chief point, which was to make the
government take up for consideration
a change of the Belgian parliamentary
franchise with its hated system of
plural votes for the wealthier and
more educated classes.
At the last returns 993 ,070 men pos
sessed one vote, 395,S66 two votes, and
30S,6S3 three votes, so that the single
votes were always overwhelmed. This
ist he first occasion on record in which
a political strike has resulted in vic
tory for the strikers and the whole
has been notable for the
energy and determination displayed
and for the excellent control shown
by the men.
They have not yet obtained their
full demand, but the Socialist leaders
express confidence that the considera
ton of their claims will result in the
franchise being made equal to all.
