The restraining order declared that
it was Issued upon the statement of
the counsel for the government that
they would immediately upon filing
of the Injunction by the direction of
the Attorney General file an expedi-
ting certificate under the act of Feb-
rfuary 11, 1903, providing for a speedy
determination of the issues in conten-
tion.
The title of the suit is "The United
States of America, complainant, vs.
the twenty-five defendants restrained
in injunction." It alleges "unlawful
combination and conspiracy."
Free of legal verbiage the petition
is to this effect:
That the defendants at all times
and are How common carriers of all
classes and kinds of freight and com-
modities. generally carried by a rail-
road company. That they are con-
tinuously engaged in carrying, mov-
ing and transporting freight and com-
modities in the commerce, trade and
traffic which is continuously carried
on among and between the several
states of the United States and the
United States and foreign countries,
also between the people residing In
the United States.
The defendants are the owners and
in control of the respective lines of
railroads, equipped for carrying on
the business of a common carrier.
That they are separate, independent
and distinct of the lines of railroad
operated by the other defendants.
Generally speaking, the lines are
the only ones for the transportation
of freight and passenger traffic, for
the states of Missouri, Iowa. Minne-
sota. Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota
North Dakota. Wyoming and parts of
Montana and Michigan. Wisconsin, Il-
linois, Indiana and Tennessee. They
furnish the only means of communi-
cation by railroad between the Inhabi-
tants of the states.
Referring to the unlawful combina-
tions and conspiracy alleged, the pe-
tlon says.
"The area of the United States
■within which said lines of railroads
operate and which I saffetced by the
unlawful combination and conspiracy
hereinafter set forth, Is more particu-
larly described in the atricles of the
ssociation of the Western trunk line
committee, dated December G, 1906,

gaged in interstate traffic, trade and

country aforesaid, and from all per-
sons having goods, wares and mer
chandise to be shipped by said rail
road."
Continuing the petition says that
the railroads intending to monopolize
the transportation, traffic, trade and
commerce between the different stat
es "did combine, conspire, confederate
and unlawfully agree to organize and
become members of the Western
trunk line committee, with the pur
pose and object of using said Western
trunk line committee as a means for
suppressing all competition between
said defendants in the said Interstate
transportation trade and commerce
being carried on by the defendant as
aforesaid."
The petition then cites the St. Paul
& Des Moines Railroad, Fort Dodge
Des Moines & Southern Railroad the
.Elgin Joliet & Eastern Railway Com-
pany, the Chicago, Milwaukee & Gary
Railroad Company and the Minneapo-
lis, St, Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Rail-
road Company as later becoming
members of the Western trunk line
Committee and parties to the unlaw-
ful combination and conspiracy.
Continuing the petition runs that
since the date mentioned the Western
trunk line committee, unincorporated,
with headquarters in Chicago, is the
Instrument by means of which freight
rates have been fixed, applicable to
all freight within the jurisdiction of
tne Western trunk line committee.
That the charges now being im-
posed are the same by all the defen
dants and are so made by agreement.
The following Is the method by which
the petition alleges rates are fixed by
the Western trunk line committees:
"Each o fthe defendants is a mem-
ber of the Western trunk line com-
mittee, composed of the freight traf-
fic manager or general freight agents
of each of the defendants. This com-
mittee meets once each month
Whenever any defendant contemplat-
es a change in any of its rates rules
or regulation, the Office or official
representing such defendant on said
committee suggests such change to
the chairman of the committee, who
then dockets the same for the con
sideratlon and discussion at the next
meeting of the freight committee. At
that meeting the matter is brought up
for consideration. If all agree the
proposed change is made by all the
roads, defendants herein. Unless
there there Is a unanimous agree
ment, the suggestion Is rejected, and
no road accepts the proposed change
of rates."
The petition alleges that there is
an agreement between the defendant
to the effect that no rates will be ad-
vanced or reduced ercept with the
concurrence of the entire body, with
a simultaneous advance or reduction
by all the others agreed upcli at
meeting of the freight committee.
Further it is asserted by means of
\njelmbership in the committee all
competition between the defendants
Is suppressed.
The Western trunk line committee
Is said to have succeeded another as-
sociation of a similar character, the
name of which is unknown, but the
complainant avers that there are
other associations of a similar char-
acter to which parts of the United
States have been assigned and in
which many of the defendants are
members.
The complainant charges that the
committee was organized and is main-
tained in violation of the provision of
the Act of CongresB on July 2, 1890
entitled "An Act to Protect Trade
and Commerce AgalnBt Unlawful Re-
straint and Monopolies," and that It
constitutes an unlawful combination
and conspiracy In the restrain of the
commerce and trade of the United
Part three of the petition says that
In 1909 or early 1* 1910 the defen-
dants conspired together and determ-
ined to make a general advance in
commodity rates to prevail through-
ot' fisheries has been working on the
problem of artificial propagation, with
a view to re-stocking the depleted
areas. Two years ago congress ap-
propriated $125,000 for the building of
an inland laboratory for the special
scientific study of problems bearing
upon mussel and fish culture and pro-
pagation. This station is in progress
of construction at. Davenport, Iowa,
and will be open for investigators next
sprint;.
"Last summer the bureau liar a
number of biologists In the field, work-
ing on the mussel problem, locating
beds of economic importance and
gathering data ragrding breeding hab-
its. adaptations, conditions in which
they thrive best and in fact all in-
formation possible concerning the life
of these animals. There are certain
species of these mussels whose shells
bring prices from fifty to seventy-five
dollars per ton twice the value of the
same quantity of corn. There are
creeks and other streams that run
through many farms that contain
many tons of these shells. Dr. Borton
W. Everman of the bureau of fisheries
suggests that intime the farmer will
market his shell crop just as he does
his grain and here we will have a new
source of income in many place
"While things are developing the
bureau is trying to help the button
men by locating new fields where the
raw material may be secured to keep
an important industry on its feet
There are doubtless streams In Okla-
homa that have beds with shells in
sufficient quantity to supply several
factories for some time. Thees beds,
however, must be located and worked.'
Before taking up the active field
of experiments for the bureau study-
work Prof. lsely will conduct a series
ing the question of migration and
growth of mussels. This work will be
carried on during the latter part of
June and will, for the most part, be
conducted along Shoo-fly creek. In the
northern part of Kay county, Okla-
homa.
l#0i> RAILROAD CONSTRUCTION.
Texas First Oklahoma Sixth, in Num-
ber of Miles Built—Total 4.010
Miles for Nation.
For 1909 Oklahoma was sixth in the
list of states and territories showing
new arilroad construction, and Is sec-
ond among them In the number of new
companies chartered during the first
four months of 1910. Oklahoma's rec-
ord was 163.2 miles, which is 1 1-2
miles short of entitling it to fifth
place. TeAs leads all states in both
showing, but, considering area, a
statement issued by the corporation
commission today figures that Okla-
homa led not only Texas, but the en-
tire nation.
Figuers supporting the eommisslon'3
statements were taken from a book re-
cently issued by Slason Thompson, a
railway statitsical expert of Chicago,
and the Railway Record ot Chicago.
The Thompson book, it explains,
charges that the government's railway
statistics for the past few years ap-
pear to have ben prepared with the
purpose of misleading the public as to
financial results of railway operation
and that the work is Issued with a
view of putting before the public de-
ductions of the railway companies
themselves from the figures they re-
port to the Interstate commerce com-
mission. Speaking of Mr. Thompson's
books the Oklahma commission says:
"It shows that forty-two states and
terrleorles built railways during 1909.
The total mileage constructed was 4 -
040.6, or an aveareg of 96.2 miles for
the states showing and construction.
Taking all states and territories Into
consideration, the average for the year
was 80.8 miles.
"Oklahoma Is credited with 163.2
miles, which Bhows this state to have
built 67 miles more in 1909 than the
average for the states and terrltoles
showing results, and 82,4 miles moer
than the average for all the states. Of
the forty-two states showing construc-
tion thirty-six Bhow less mileage than
Oklahoma. Five show moer making
Oklahoma sixth on the list. Mlnne-
tlons. I have not changed since I left
the United States. I will be glad to
sec you aid your committee on my
arrival In the United States."
Thus wrote Theodore Roosevelt,
former president of the United States,
from Ixmdoii last week to Hamilton
Fish, a New York Republican Insur-
gent of the House, In answer to a let
ter of ten typewritten pages, which
Representative Fish addressed to Mr.
Roosevelt care of Ambassador Reid at
London. The Rooseevlt letter Is dated
from Dorchester House, London, and
being brief Is probably quoted verbatim
In the foregoing words by a trust-
worthy member of the House who read
the letter.
This letter created wide Interest In
congressional and administration cir-
cles, which interest was considerably
heightened when news reached here
today that former President Roosevelt
has accepted an invitation to attend,
in the latter part of June, a dinner
to be given by Robert F. Collier, pub-
lisher of Collier's Weekly, which, more
than any other single factor, has been
responsible for forcing the investiga-
tion of Secretary Ballinger's connec-
tion with the Cunningham claimants
and the Guggenheim grab lp Alkska.
As President Taft has been active
in indorsing regular Republican con-
gressmen for re-election and has gen-
erally let it be understood that he is
not in sympathy with the insurgent
fight 1h the House and as his defense
of Secretary Ballinger Is open and out-
spoken, the radicals in congress re-
gard Mr. Roosevelt's letter to Repre-
sentative Fish and his acceptance of
the Collier Invitation as Indicating the
former president will speak out frank-
ly against these two attitudes of Pres-
ident Taft.
Others hold to the view that Mr.
Roosevelt will not do more than
vaguely approve the fight against Can-
non or indorse the investigation of
Ballinger, contending that he will
hardly embroil himself in these fights.
But his actions so far indicate that he
will be a factor for the reactionaries
to reckon with In the next president-
ial campaign, These developments
are responsible for the renewed re-
ports today that the insurgents pro-
pose to bring about the event of re-
moving Speaker Cannon approximate-
ly simultaneously with the return of
Mr. Roosevelt, as a sort of incidental
red fire to the big home-coming cele-
bration. There is also more talk of a
further attack on the rules.
