1.-THE question is whether in prescribing

the state has superseded the constitution
al limit by making the rates coniiscatory

cific and Great Northern companies on
the examination of estimates of value
and methods of apportionment 1t is con-
Guided that the proof is insufficient to
justify a finding that the rates were
confiscatory. and the DEGREES arc revcrs-
ed, with instructions to dismiss the bill
in each case without prejudice.
III. In the case Of the Minneapolis and
ST. Louis Railroad Company it Is found
in view Of the special facts appearing
that the margin of error in the estl-
mates and calculations was not sufficient
to affect the result. The decree in that
case adgudIing the rates to be confisca-
tory is therefore affirmed, with the modi-
f1cation that the members of the rail-
road and warehouse commission and the
attorney general OF the state may apply
to the court by bill or otherwise as they
may be advised for further order or
decree whenever 1t shall appear that by
reason Of change in circumstances the
rates fixed by the states acts and orders
are sufficient to yield to this company

PACIFIC'S MERGER PLANS
TOO VAGUE FOR ADOPTION
Attorney General to Enter Objection
at Railway Hearing in st.
Paul Thursday.

When Attorney General Mickey holds
appears at the hearing on the plans for
the dissolution of the Union Pacific mer-
ger at St. Paul Thursday he will oppose
the adoption of either plan on the ground
that each is too vague to meet the re-
quirements of the Supreme Courts de
cison ordering the dissolution OF the
merger under the Sherman law.
The Attorney Gene,al has indicated
that he would not insist upon a receiver
ship for the merger. saying that was q
question for the court.
Mr.. McRcynoids said he sympathizsd
with the efforts which Robert S. Lovett
and other attorneys for the Union Pa
cific had made to draft plan OF disin.
tegration. but that he could not bring
before the court
In his opinion, the plans do not provide
a definite time for the surrender by the
Tn on Pacific of Its 1928 .6JO.0CO worth of
Southern Pacific stock. and he also re-
CARDS them, as vague with respect to the
extent to which the present shareholders
of the Union Pacific may purchase the
surrendered Southern Pacific stock.
Company's Primary Plan.
The railroad company's primary plan
provides for the sale OF the Union Pa
ciiic's holdings Of Southern Pacific stock
by public subscription similar to city
bonds. while its alternate. plan provides
for placing the disfranchised stock in the
Hands Of trustee and the issuance Of
certificates OF interest against Il, the
certificates being offered to shareholders
of the Union Pacific.
These certificates would be exchanged
for the stock upon the filing Of an
affidavit that the holders did not own
any OF the capital stock of. the Union
Pacific.
From the first the Attorney General
disapproved Of the alternate plan. but
his disposition toward the primary plan
was not known until today. He plans to
leave here tonight for>St. Paul.

The discovery in Chicago of dupli-
cate numbers indicates that worse
offense than neglect to obtain licenses
has been committed. 1t indicates a
scheme TO defraud the state. There
as a possibility that this practice Of
duplicating numbers may have been
carried on on a very large scale in
Chicago. a searching investigation
should be made.
The authorities in every city and
county in the state should cooperate
with the secretary of state in his eff.
! fort to prevent evasion OF the automo-
bile law. Failure to carry tags should

which do not bear the 1913 date should
be reported.

thousands OF dollars by transferring
the automobile tag contract to a firm
which is said to make a better tag for
less money. His crusade is bringing
