PAUL., July 12.A large increase “4n the operating income of the Great * Northern railway despite a material “cut in freight rates and the costly shopmen’s strike, is shown for the year 1922, in the annual report made ‘public today, The report also shows substantial improvements in the railway proper- tiles and a program of expenditures ‘which {s continued into the present year. _ Net railway operating income in- fereased more thon one third over «1921. The ratio of expenses to rev- Tenues was reduced 2.5 percent. ~ The Great Northern has protested “peainst the tentative valuation of its * 4 4 properties by the Interstate Com- merce Commission as too low, al- though the valuation exceeds capitall- zation of the company and explodes the ‘watered stock” plank of the ant!- railroad group, and expects to show the commission that the valuation should be made much higher, the re- port emphasizes. Gross income of the Great Northern for 1922 was $27,762,603.90, of which slightly less than 50 percent went for dividends. Interest, taxes and rents required $6,187,931 or approx!- mately $2,250,000 more than for non. operating income, including dividends of $8,527,118 f-om the Burlington, totalled $10,487,006, Fake Buying Orders For - Railroad Stock Headed Off NEW YORK, July 12.—Fake buy- fing orders for Southern Pacific rail- ~road stock were distributed among a number of brokerage houses in Wall ,street this morning but the fraud was discovered before the market opened and none of the orders is be lieved to have been executed.

Canadian Pacific opened 1% higher and Atlantic Coast Line 1, but Union Pacific and “Katy” preferred lost ground, Inland Steel dropped one to a new low for the year and General Asphalt also fell back a point. Buy- ing was largely for the account of professional short traders. There was a moderate inquiry for a few of the oil, tobacco, food and automotive shares, gains of a point or more being recorded by Cosden, Studebaker, Tobacco products “A”, Fleischmann, South Porto Rican Sugar and Liggett and Myers “B." Canadian Pacific extended its gain to 2 points, American sugar touched a new low for the year. Foreign ex- changes opened firm. Early irregularity wore off and bull- ‘sh sentiment became more pronounc- ed. Substantial gains were recorded by a number of industrials and spec- falties. ‘Trading in rafls’ was rather s'uggish but these also worked higher with buying power lifted ot the sea- soned dividend paying issues. Ex- perimental short selling by profession al traders in an endeavor to uncover weak spots met with little success although Americar’ Car was pushed down to a ney low record for the year. Woolworth was pushed up 7 points DuPont and American Agricultural Chemical preferred, 3 each while gains of 2 to 2% were recorded by Mack Truck, Stewart Warner, Reynolds Spring, Corn Products, and American Radiator. Call money opened at five percent. Whether from dissatisfaction, with the address of Premier Baldwin deal- ing with the reparations problem of the fact that there was no outside buying to sustain prices, many active shares sold off 1 to 1% points from their high figures of the morning. American Car was especially weak, falling 2% to 151%. Several strong spots prevailed among the minor steels and investment railroads. Sloss-Sheffield Steel, preferred, ad- vanced 4 oints, Vanadium Steel 3%, South Porto Rican ugar 3 and Dela- ware and Hudson 24. The closing was steady; the market was also at a standstill in the final hour and fluctuations were unimpor- tant except for American Car, which dropped further to 148%, American Sumatra Tobacco, preferred, which fell 28% points: yesterday on the sale of 100 shares, moved up 11% points today on the buying of a similar amount.

Century Mark CHICAGO, July 12.—With crop re: ports at hand indicating that no serious damage from black rust was probable,.the wheat market today. averaged a little lower in price dur- ing the early dealings. On the de- clines, however, fairly good buying developed and gave support to values. Comparative steadiness of Liverpool quotations tended also to act as a check on weakness in the mark here. Chicago opening prices, which. varied from unchanged figures to 14 cent lower, with September .99% to 99% and December 1.02% to 1.02%, were followed by, a slight general sag and then by a transient recovery to about yesterday's finish. Subsequently reports from South Dakcta said neavy loss from black rust Wat certsin around Aberdeen, and it was preti'cted that South Da- \ota would produce 7,000,000 or 8,000.- 000 bushels less wheat than the July official estimate.

The temporary injunction, which was made permanent today not only enjoined: the defendants from inter- fering with raflroad properties but algo enjoined them from conspiring to “injure or interfére with the rail- road compani in the conduct of their business, and- prohibited them from making threats, jeers, taunts or entreaties; enjoined''them from loiter- Ing in the vicinity of places of ingress or egress of the employes of the rail- way companies; or being unneces- sarily in the vicinity. Parades and meetings that have anything to do with the strike were barred, as were also letters, telegrams, messages, telu- phone or word of mouth, that would interfere or. incite against the opera- tion of+their. employes. or the rail- roads. It also prevented. picketing and the visiting of the ‘homes of em- ployes by missionaries of the unions, The injunction~ likewise prevented the union officers from {suing in- structions, public statements or com- munications that would in any way violate ‘the intent of the injunction. It also tied up the ‘funds of the union insofar as their use in’ the strike was concerned. In making the injunction perma- nent, Judge Wilkerson said in part: “It ‘seems almost incredible that warfare of the kind disclosed by the voluminous record in this case should have been waged in this country. It is even more ominous that this un- lawful assault upon the commerce of the nation should have found apol gists and défendants, including some (happily a few, however), of those charged with the duty of protecting property and enforcing’ the law. “This ‘strike wat more than a con- troversy between employer and em- ploye: Its manifest purpose, as shown by the’ evidence, was to cripple and destroy interstate commerce and to create by this assault a public opinion hostile to the decision of the board. The primary purpose of: the combination therefore is unlawful nd it may not be carried out by means that otherwise would be legal. “Even if the strike is regarded merely as a controversy between em- ployer and employe, the evidence shows beyond doubt that it was part of the purpose of those engaged in this. combination to carry on the strike by assaults and acts of vio- lence. Certainly upon such a show- ing, the injunctive reiief will not be limited to forbidding acts of violence which are done in, secret, and for which it is hard to fix responsibility and to impose punishment, and thus leave defendants free to encourage injury to persons and property. by open words and’ deeds which in them- selves appear peaceful and lawful. The defendant unions were not represented in court today. It wi explained, however, that they have 60 days in which to file an appeal. ‘The attorneys who represented them withdrew from the case when the question of the permanent order came up in May and today's decision was virtually by default. In his decision, Judge Wilkerson only outlined the main points brought out in the proof. He called attention to bulletins issued by the Union or- ganization leaders and said: “Those bulletins show the respon: bility of the officers of the defendant organizations for the management of the strike. They also show that those officers in the midst of a campaign of violence unparalleled in American industrial history, were continuously} ineiting the members of the defend. ant organizations to greater activity.” The real purpose of the. strike, Judge Wilkerson said, is indicated in the language from a bulletin issued August 21, 1921, which read: “Rest assured that this strike has aroused the American people as ao previous strike-in the nation’s his- tory. They-have visions of a fuelle: and foodless ‘winter, with the trans-| portation system of the nation prac:| y @ derelict.” | Judge Wilkerson. then cited the| | numerous acts of depredation .com: | } mitted during ‘the strike and nofed | tieal that damage tnfiicted upon the rail. roads by the strike was shown by the evidence to have emounted tg sald, only represented money actu: said, only reresented money actually paid on account of the strike and does not include damages to property, loss of business, increased cost of doing business nor loss by claims for damages. Judge Wilkerson cited the effect of the strike on the raflroads and on business in general. ‘After the granting of the tempo- rary injunction,” he said, “the acts of violence, assault and malicious in- jury diminished in number, and the evidence clearly indicates that a con- tinuance of the injunction is neces- sary in order to prevent {n certain localities, fresh outbursts of lawless- ness and a recurrence of the depreda- tions committed in 1922." The record in the case consists of 4,000. pages, besides many exhibits. Seven hundred’ and twenty-four wit- nesses testified.
