SUES TO RETAIN
BIG MONOPOLY
Court Hears How New Or
leans Terminal Facilities
Were Bottled Up"

The 81. Louis and San Francisco
Railroad began suit In the Supreme
Court to-day TO compel thei Southern
Railway Company to restore a half
interest in the seoooo,cO New Orleans
Seminal Company. organized secretly
BY che two companies in 1903 to control
the terminal facilities Of the Southern
oity. Francis Lynde Stetson, who
argued before Justice Gavegan against
the suit, termed the action a oase OF
''wslching."
40 Attorney A. b. Poilak. represent.
ing the petitioner. argued the motion.
the Courts eyes were opened to an
extraordinary alliance by which the two
railroads successfully gobbled up all
the transit properties Of New Orleans
and held them under a trust agree
msut, the stock being deposited in the
Guarantee Trust Company Of New York
Justice 0avegan heard of $4,000, 900
coAcsrn, which never sold share OF Its
stock. and never attempted to market
a share and whose invaluable assets
are not assignable. marketable or sal
able.
Mr.. Pollak declared that the receivers
OF the st. Louis and San Francisco
Railroad fear the connscation Of their
half interest in the terminal company
and demand that the Southern Railway
credit the securities against the debt
OF the terminal company. or thaN the
bankrupt st. Louis company have a

Gavegan reserved decision.
L In 1903. Mr.. Pollak explained. the two
yApmpanies. then rivals for business In
inc Southwest, agreed to pool their In
terests In the traffic property of New
orleans and organized the New Orleans
Terminal Company.
The 81. 900, 900 Terminal Company was
capitalized at 81. Ooo, 900 only for purposes
of organization and each company took
title to one-half Of the stock. Each de-
posted the stock and each agreed ID
pay one-half the rental charge on all
the terminal properties, the rental to be
exactly the amount OF the interest upon
the bonds. Each guaranteed the inter
est. and since each was to bear half OF
the burden Of the bonds. each secured
the other by agreeing to pledge the
others stock as a sguarantee for the
faithful performance OF the agreement
For ten years the two companies
worked IN harmony under this monop
oily. Then a receiver was named fol
the st. Louis company. The st. Loui,
company could not meet the $4,000
interest on the bonds, and under TIT
trust agreement It's half interest II

Your Child's Health
Your First Thought

If you have children, naturally your
first thoughts are for their health.
You certainly want them TO develop
strong healthy constitutions. The
most careful attention must be given
when children show the first symp-
toms of the many common ailments.
Perhaps they are weakly and thin, or
grew too fast, thus sacrificing
strength. These and other apparent
1y minor ailments may be the fore
runner to a weak constitution for life.
Such children need Jayne's Tonic
Vernlifuge which is essentially chill
dren's tonic. First of all, it will
properly care for the child's stomach.
It will also improve the appetite, and
will add strength to the other organs
of the body. In cases of thin or i'm
pure blood, it increases the number
of red corpuscles enabling the en-
riched blood to keep the body healthy
and strong.
Among the most common ailments
that children develop is that of dis
ordered stomach, leading to an i'm
paired digestion. In many cases this
trouble is due to parasites in the IN
festival tract. To correct such trou-
BILE, Jayne's Tonic Vermifuge is un-
surpassed.
For more than eighty years millions
of children have been restored TO
health through the use of this tonic.
Insist upon Jayne s; accept no other.
Sold by druggists everywhere. DR.. d.

Mary Curfey's first job was as
cash girl in the Boston store at 81
a week. She later became a sales
girl, and then worked for the tele-
phone company at Is cents an hour.
Jennie Strauss cried bitterly when
the police raided Norton's fiat. Later
she told Detective Sergeant Bowler
the story of her fall.
81 was just kid" she said. "And
couldn't live on that, far less get
any of the things that any girl wants
to get. was easy"
The police suspect that Norton
made a regular business of running
girls working for small wages in de-
partment stores. They say he ran a
second fiat in the Gerald Building,
5000 South State street. .-
1t is for this reason and because
of the Curley girls refusal to testify
against Norton, the police particular
ly wish~to get the testimony of the
Strauss and Roy girls.
''These girls disappeared in a
mighty funny way" said Bowler, to-
day. I'VE can't find any trace of
them at all. Yet l don't think they
had any money of their own-not
enough to get any distance any
how"
Norton's defense now is that Mary
Curley was only his housekeeper.
The Curley girl will corroborate this.
Norton is married and has two
children. Last November he was fined
for wife abandonment He paid the
fine, but did not go back to his wife,

out two warrants for the arrest of

and editor of the Manufacturers

tenant Governor Barratt O'Hara,
saying that the proof that O'Hara
is tied up with Lawrence and that
Lawrence instigated the senate white
slave commissions low wages inquiry
lies in the fact that the chief inves-
tigator for the commission is M. Blair
Coan.
Glenn's editorial states that Coan
is the personal representative of An
drew M. Lawrence, and reports to
Lawrence that Coan stood behind
O'Hara's chair when O'Hara was D..
questioning Glenn last Saturday, and
that therefore it wasn't necessary for
O'Hara to see Lawrence every day
as there are other means of COM
munication."
Glenn, In his editorial, asks if it
benot true that every newspaper man
in Chicago knows Coan to be Andy
Lawrence's representative.
It isn't. Every newspaper man in
the city knows that Coan formerly
was reporter on the Examiner.
They also know that before that
Coan worked for Hearst's New York
Journal. They also know Coan as
one of the best Investigators in Chi.
cago, and know that he usually is
employed when there is a big probe.
O'Hara knew this as well as any
newspaper man, and that probably
was his only reason for employing
Coan. ~. 80
AS to Coan sitting behind O'Hara
while O'Hara was questioning Glenn,
that was, Coan's position no matter
who was being examined.
1t looks like Glenn had got off on
the wrong foot and horned his way
clear into first-class mess of trou-
BILE in his zeal to flag the investiga-
ton of low wages.
The Day Books best information
is that there is absolutely no connec-
ton between Barratt O'Hara and An,
