Discussed by Wickersham.

The sales company was organized
after the decision Of the Supreme Court
i'm the second case against the Lehigh
Valley Railroad Company, and all the
facts have been laid before the Depart
ment Of Justice several times and fully
discussed in the report of Attorney
General Wickersham for 1912
Mr.. Boles pointed to extracts OF the
Wickersham report which held that
"by the arrangement both the railroad
company and the coal companies
seemed to have parted in good faith
with title to the coal before transpor-
tatfon begins" and that TRANSPORTS
ton. therefore, is free from prohibi-
ton Of the commodities clause as con-
strucd by the Supreme Court He
added:
The recent case which has been be
gun and the trial Of which has been, |
believe. completed, against the Lacl<a b
wanna Railroad and the Delaware.
Lackawanna and Western Coal Com
rany. involves the same questions Of
law as are involved i'm this suit against
the Lehigh Valley Coal Sales Company,
and they will, no doubt be heard by
the Supreme Court together.
As TO the railroads ownership Of the
I.chigh Valley Coal Company and sew
cral small subsidiary companies, that
question has been Investigated for more
than generation, and if there were
any violations Of law involved it seems
that the government should have ascer-
tanned it and made it clear to the courts
by this time"
