siderlng the proposal of the Union Pa
cific railroad made to the United
states oas court, at st. Paul to exchange
!SS,Ooo,O0O of Southern Pacific stock
for the Pennsylvania's holdings Of
Baltimore & Ohio. Such an arrange
ment incident to the dissolution Of
the Union Pacific merger the attorney

present a question to which the gov

studying the interrelations of the rail
roads and seeking advice to determine
finally whether it could be considered
as obnoxious.

COURT READY FOR
FINISHING TOUCH
TO RATE DECISION

Washington. June Diminishing
touches to the supreme courts decision
in the railroad rate cases from Mis-
souri,, Arkansas, Oregon and West Vir-
ginia are believed to have been added
today in secret conference. The deci-.
sions with these in the other 70 cases
before the court are expected to be
announced Monday.
Justice Hughes is picked by most
lawyers familiar with the court pro-
cedure as certain to announce the cons
clnsion OF the court as he did in the
Minnesota rate cases last Monday. In
doiEg 80 he will review the opinion OF
Judge Smith Mcpherson, of the West
ern Missouri circuit court
BY a coincidence Judge Mcpherson
in that opinion commented on the
moral courage of Justice Hughes
then governor of New York, for Veto
ing 2-c,ant passenger bill. Judge Nc
Pherson held the Missouri maximum
freight rate and the cent passenger
law confiscated the property of the
railroads and enjoined their enforce
-ment.
THE relations Of a governor to pro-
posed legislation and those of a court
Judge Mcpherson. ARE entirely diff
ferent"
Mcpherson May Be Reversed.
The apportionment of values and ex-
penses of the railroads on the revenue
basis as done in the Missouri cases by
Judge Mcpherson, was disapproyed in
the Minnesota cases. Those errors, JUS
tice Hughes said, We're not sufficient
to change a return of 3.5 per cent into
remunerative rate.
In the Missouri cases, Judge Nc
Pherson held that the return from the
freight rates would result in a deficit
on the Hannibal & st. Louis and the
Burlington, and return not exceed
ing 2 per cent on the other 16 roads
concerned. The returns from the 2
cent passenger law, according to the
judge, would show profit on the Rock
Island, st. Louis & Hannibal, Kansas
City, Clinton & Springfield and the
Great Western; profit of from to
4 per cent on the st. Louis & San
Francisco. 4 and per cent on the
Santa Fe, fraction over 2 per cent
on the Kansas City Southern and be-
tween 3 and per cent on the Bur-
lington.
In view OF that finding many believe
the supreme court will first consider
whether errors in valuation and appor-
tionment have been sufficient In The
Missouri case to convert a deficit or
low return into reasonable return.
Many think the court may find the
laws valid as to certain roads and in
valid as to others.
