and Violation of Anti
trust Law.
REDISTRIBUTION OF STOCK

Washington, Dec. 6.-The gov
eminent today won it's antitrust
suit against the Lehigh Valley
Railroad company and affiliated
corporations. The supre me court,

The court held that charges OF
violation Of the commodities
clause in the formation of the Le-
high Valley Coal Sales company
had been proven.
Redistribution of stock of the Lee
high Valley company asked by the

upon the governments contention
that common stock ownership, off,

straint of trade by the Sherman act
Justice McReynolds and Justice

Grafton OF the case. Justice McRoYn'
olds was attorney general while the

Father Holds Bride a Prisoner,
Says Bridegroom in Court

NEW YORK.-Douglas Morton, Of
Yorktown. n. Y, known to all his
neighbors as "a splendid young man."
has made an attempt to rescue his
bride from the clutches of her IA
Their, who, Mr.. Morton says, has been
holding her prisoner since their mar
riage, October /.
He was deeply moved by a note
which he received from his Betty,
In which she is said to have implored
him ''for Gods sake get me out
of here" and set about her rescue
forthwith, retaining an attorney and
obtaining a writ of habeas corpus.
There was a hearing on the writ
is the supreme court at White Plains,
and Douglas and Betty saw each 9TH
err for the first time since the lat
ter went home to get some clothes
after Clinton T. Brown. justice Of
the peace, had married them.
They were unable to speak to each
other, howeverfi for Betty's father,
George 3. McCle1land. a contractor
of Yorkville, also was in court and
would not permit it.
"Mrs. Morton is being kept under
lock and key by her father" said
Benjamin I. Fagin, corporate coun-
sci of Ossining, who is attorney for
the brideless bridegroom. 1T is
an outrage that this young man can
not have his bride. His neighbors
all say he is a splendid young man"
Mr.. McCle1land had no attorney. He
told Justice Young what he had to
say himself.

VICTORY MEDALS
BEING REQUESTED
AT SLOW RATE

CAMP GORDON, Oct. 26.-Major
General Peter c. Harris, the adjutant
general Of the army, in circular
issued from the war department, says
that victory medals for service in
the recent world war are being ap-
piled for so slowly that officers in
charge of the distribution are ordered
to make the utmost effort tc reach
all former service men WHO deserve
the medal.
1t is estimated that 3,757,624 men
who served in the army are entitled
to the decoration, but to date only
about 10000 have applied. Applica-
lions are reaching the war depart
ment at the rate of only $500 a
day, which is far below the capacity
for issue Of the working crew iii the
Philadelphia general supply depot.
The quartermaster has put on large
force and these men are being held
at much expense to the government.
1T Is no more difficult to make
out form for the victory medal,
announces General Harris, than It is
form verifies the recipients service
and his present whsreabo bouts. It will
prevent the medal from falling into
the wrong hands. The governments
gift is a work of art, not bauble,
and has intrinsic as well as sentt-
mental value. 1t cannot be sent out
to unverihed addresses any more
than Liberty Bonds OF war insurance
checks, many of which have been
lost in spite Of all possible care. The
ex-service man has only to apply to
the nearest army post or recruiting
officer in his home town, or through
any patriotic society SUCH as the
American Legion or the Veterans Of
Foreign Wars. Here he will be
shown how to fill out the blank and
If his discharge papers are correct,
the application is forwarded qlrecI
to Philadelphia, and the medal ma1led
within a week. Hundreds Of appli-
cants have given wrong addresses
and many medals are returned oally
by the postoffice because the men
cannot be located.
For service in the United States
117,194 medals have been issued to
date, and 1902 for service in for
56,o05 medals with three battle
clasps issued, and $3.50 with two
battle clasps. These are the largest
number of all with hattie clasps
which range from one to eleven.
There have been fifty-two medals Is
