I'm all the provinces Of Canada there
Is an economically unsound distribution
OF the present total population OF

Is too small "A percentage of the whole.
Occupying "A territory greater in area

to-day is importing great quantities of

81 am convinced that IL we are going

Claimed Act Illegal.

\ was alleged that the agreement was
In violation of the railroad and Public
Service Commissions law prohibiting the
giving of bonds or other evidences of
debt for the purpose of CONSULTATION Of
two or more corporations.
When this case was reached by the
Court of Appeals. Chief Judge Willard
Bartlett stated that me felt he was dis
qualified by reason Of the fact that he
held "A policy in a company which held
some Of the bonds involved in the ac-
ion. He accordingly withdrew from the
bench during the arguments on the
appeal.
Me decisions of tho Court Of Appeals
in these two cases are the elimination
Of a series of legal successes scored by
tho majority stockholders of the New
York Central and Lake shore railroads.
From the time the application for per-
mission to merge was pending before
the Public Service Commissions of the

of the several jul isdictions through

Bond men said yesterday that there
were several reasons why Wall Street

est reason OF all is the fact that II Is
almost certain there will be at least
three all or none bids made for The

mer Partners.
COMMISSIONS PAID DEBT

Hugh Ferguson Criss. member Of the
New York Stock Exchange. who was the
active broker In the purchase Of Hook
ing stock in January. 1910. when the
pool engineered by the late James r..
keene collapsed. is defendant in n novel
suit for 10000 brought in the United
States District Court.
The complaint was filed by Cahell &
Gilpin of II wall street In behalf II
Jesse Nevin Roberts and Walker l..
Hall, members Of a brokerage firm Of
Cincinnati. who charge that by the acts
Of Crisis they have been damaged In the
amount asked.
The complaint states that the plain

erts, Hall & Criss. formed January 3.
1905. with Offices in Cincinnati. The
plaintiffs conducted the cincinnati bust
ness and crisis and his brother. Thomas
Il. criss. who died recently. handled the
New York office. The plaintiffs say
that under the ~copartncrship agreement
no m of the firm could make any
| speculative purchase, but in disregard
of this. Crisis agreed TO buy large blocks
Of Hooking stock In January. 1910, with
the result that neither the firm nor it's
individual members could meet the OBJ
legations when they maturcd. and the
firm became insOlvcnt.
The plaintiffs say that subsequently a
receiver was appointed IN Cincinnati. AMI
a composition with the creditors was
! arranged by which the receiver was
discharged. but the plaintiffs SUSTAINED
large ~pccuniary losses in settlement Of
the defendants speculative contracts.
They say that In June. 1912, IS a prelimi-
nary step TO the rcsuWp. OIL Of business
by the firm, they agreed TO release
Cr!ss from all claims In consideration
that under a new partnership arrange

notified 10y the officials Of the stock EX-
change that his arrangement With the
plant Ms VAS iu contraNcntion N the

ground thai their good vii has been i'm
