Northerr, ompanies and all subsidlary comp: nies. When in the history of corpo- nization was there ever a charter which concentrated vast and Immeasurable power in the hands of so few? Mr. Beck contended that the boards of di rectors of the Unlon Pacific, the Northern Pacifie, the Great Northern and Burling- ton systems had been so grouped that all Inteérests were represented on each, and all motive and necessity for competition elim inated; that in this manner a working com- bination had been effected which eontrolled the three transcontimental systems, other- wise competitive, whose total trackage was over 33,000 miles. Annlyzes Sherman Law, He analyzed the Sherman anti-trust law, and contfnded that it clearly prohibited such a combination. He reviewed all the eral appellate court which had construed this act, and sum- | marized the doctrine of the cases. In conclusion he said: It the merger is so beneficlal, the em- phatic protest of the executive officers of five states would seem (0 be unnecessary. However, these questions are all for the legislature and not the judicial branch of the government. It is possible that the coneentration of property interests, includ- ing railroad transportation, is an economic tendency which s as irrisestible as gravita- tion, and that the law itself will be as im- Jotent to stop It as to challenge by legis- atl enactment the rocession of the stars. This, however, neither the officers of Ihu law nor the courts charged with the y of interpreting and enforcing it can gnize. The American people are both conserva- tive and practical, and when they recognize that monopoly Is beneficent and competi- tion is an evil, they will repeal existing laws and by positive legislation facllitate and legalize rallway monopoly. Until that Ume, which is likely to be the Greek Kalends, the law should be falrly, fully and figpartially enforced, for it is everlastingly tfue that the imperative need of this coun- try, both at the hands of capital and of 1 18 nog more law, but more obedience However public spirited the pur- the defendants in forming this mar may have been, and whatever Its resultant. good or evil, it is enough for present purposes to say that It clearly violates existing law, whose provisions must be enforced unless government by the people 18 to be deemed a delusion. When he finished Mr. Young opened in rebuttal for the Northern Becurities com- He briefly sketched the bullding of the Great Northern and its extension to the Pacific coast. He explained that at the beginning it was almost imposeible for the road to secure sufficlent trade going east and that a long time was spent in bullding up the lumber trade for traffic east from the coast. Then followed a summarized history of transpacific trade and the en- largement of railroad interests. After he had spoken for halt an hour court adjourned until tomorrow. FORTUNE LOST | IN ELEPHANT Fifty Thousand “Dollar Animal Dies on Board Ship—Beast Was Larger Than Jumbo, NEW YORK, March 18.—The elephant, Jingo, said to have been larger than Jumbo, lied at sea on the steamer Georgic, which arrived from Liverpool today.

For sixty hours preceding its death the mammoth beast trumpeted without cessa- tidn and twice knocked down its keeper, who attempted to pacify it. The cries of the elephant aroused the leopards and tigers aboard the shio. As the day passed Jingo seemed to grow weaker and he squirmed In his narrow cage In an effort to get out. He was chained in to avold escape. The fourth day out the animal's condition became such that Law- rence gave him whisky and kept bim under the Influence of whisky for almost three days. It was then that the beast became more savage than ever and began the trumpeting. The entire crew went to Lawrence's as- sistanco on the eleventh day and joined with him in an effort to pacify Jingo, They all falled, however, and twice the beast thrust his trunk through the bars of the cage and struck the keeper withi such force that he was thrown to the deck. The other animals joined in the great nolse until about § o'clock of the morniog of the 12th. when suddenly Jingo's crics ceased. . Lawrence ran to the cage to find the an- imal dead.
