Commissioner Hall of the interstate
commerce commission by Frederick
Stevens, formerly an official of that
line and the Pere Marquette, whose
affairs are interviewer with those of
the former system.
Mr.. Stevens appeared as an asso-
ciate of J. P. Morgan e Co. The bur-
den of his testimony was statement
that when the late ]. P. Morgan
bought the controlling interest of the
Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton for
the Erie in 1905, he had no knowledge
of the financial results of the proceed
ing year to the road. During that
year, Mr.. Stevens said, under the adj
ministration of Eugene Zimmerman of
Cincinnati, syndicate controlled the
road and contracted debts of nearly
100000.
The net result to Mr.. Morgan in the
entire transaction, the witness de-
clared, was an expenditure of more
than $12,000,00O, for which the firm
now had to show 10000 shares of the
Pere Marquette, "of doubtful, if any,
