NEW YORK, Jan. . The National As

some revlHlons In the constitution and re
elected Its officers and board of arbitra
tion, adding to the latter the name of J.
D. O'Brien of Milwaukee, president of the
American Base Ball association. Mr.
O'Brien takes the place of Ed Grlllo of
Cincinnati. Another session will be held
tomorrow.
Neither the National association nor Its
board of arbitration found time today to
take up the matter of the territorial rights
tor the Trl-State league.
Among the constitutional amendments
adopted was one changing the, date of the
annual meeting from the second Tuesday
In January to the third Tuesday In October.
Another amendment makes It obligatory
on the part of the clubs to inform the
secretary of the association of contracts
signed with players within either fifteen
or thirty days, under a penalty of a fine
of J for each Infraction.
Rules were made prohibiting players
from joining other leugues than the league
with which they are playing without the
consent of the secretury of the National
association. A new section was adopted.
Imposing a penalty upon clubs falling to
report players who have "Jumped" con
tracts. Clubs are also to be penalized for
using a player for more than fifteen days
without having a contract with the player.
The Pacific Coast league was granted an
enlargement of territorial rights In Cali
fornia, A regulation was made that all contracts
with players shall be uniform and there
shall be no "non-reserve" contracts, save
on the consent of the secretary of the
National board and the secretary of the
National Bane Ball commission.
Representatives of the Eastern league and
the American association, which are In
class A ' of the National association, the
highest class, asked that they be given
a special classification of "A," denoting u
higher rating. To this the Pacific Coast
league and the Southern association en
tered a vigorous and successful protest.
The association endorsed a motion that
umpires shall come under the contract
rules the same as players, and that they
hall be subject to contract Jumping penal
ties. The resolution goes to the National
Base Ball commission for action.
The constitution' was amended to pro
vide that the $500 find against a club that
unauthorized goes Into the territory of an
other club to play, shall be paid to the
club whose territory was Invaded.
The, association endorsed a request of
Eugene F. Bert of the Pacific league, that
the "drafting" season of that league bo
msde uniform with, that of the other
leagues in the association, namely, Septem
ber 1. Mr. Bert thanked the association
for financial assistance tendered to the
Paclflo league at the time of the San Fran
cisco disaster.

The fourth and fifth rounds were repe

condition was perfect, but it is probable
that Corbett would have tipped the beam

COAL MINES AND ELEVATORS INVOLVED
Wabash and Mlssoarl Tactile Are
Aliened to Have Violated
Charters Issaed by the
State.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Jan. 9.-Sults to
dissolve the alleged merger of the Wabash,
Mlsourl Paclflo and Iron Mountain Railway
companies and the Pacific Express com
pany and to revoke the licenses and char
ters of the Paclflo Refrigerator Transporta
tion company, Western Coal and Mining
company. Rich Hill Coal Mining company
and Kansas-Missouri Elevator company
were filed In the supreme court by Attorney
General Hadley today.
The petition alleges the stocks of the
companies named rc owned by the same
Interests the Goulds In violation of the
provisions of the constitution and laws of
Missouri.
Chief Justice Oantt of the -upreme court
made quo warranto writs asked by Attor
ney General Hadley returnable in the su
preme court on January 23, upon which
day the defendants must appear and make
answer to the allegations In Hadley's peti
tion. The petition asking that the merger of
the stock ownership of the roads be dis
solved alleges that the Missouri Pacific,
Iron Mountain and Wabash roads are cor
porations created by and existing under
the laws of Missouri; that the Faciflc Ex
press company is chartered in Nebraska,
but licensed to do business In Missouri;
that the American Refrigerator Transit
company Is chartered in Illinois, but li
censed In Missouri as a common carrier of
cold storage products. It states that the
Wabash and the Missouri Pacific roads
between St. Louis and Kansas City are
parallel and competing lines aa to traffic
between those two cities, and also as to
much of the Intermediate territory.
It Is alleged that the Missouri Pacific
owns and holds 443.354H of 443.901 outstand
ing shares of the Iron Mountain; that the
Missouri Paclflo owns 20.000 shares of the
preferred stock of the Wabash; the Iron
Mountain 65,000 shares of the preferred
stock of the Wabash and 15,435,000 of the
dobenture bonds of the Wabash; that tho
Wabash owns 24,000 and the Missouri Pa
clflo 12.000 shares of tho 60,000 shares of
stock of the Paclflo Express company; that
the Iron Mountain owns 2,853 and the Mis
souri Pacific 1,217 shares of the stock of
the American Refrigerator Transit com
pany, being the entire amount of stock
issued by that company.
There is also an allegation that the Iron
Mountain and Missouri Pacific have the
same officers, have no general officers In
the state, and that books and records of the
companies are kept in the office In New
York. The petition says:
The persons and interests In ownership
and control of the Missouri Pacific com
pany, being members of the Gould family,
of which Jay Gould was until his death
the head, and other persons Interested with
the said Gould family In railroad, tele
graph and kindred enterprises, have com
bined and conspired to bring under the
control and domination of the same persons
and interests ' the Wabash and Missouri
Pacific companies, for the purpose of pre
venting and destroying all competition be
tween the said companies t and for the
purpose of making the two companies as
one In practical effect and so far as con
cerns any public Interest Involved.
The arrangements hereinbefore set forth,
whereby the holders of the debenture bonds
of the Wabash company are permitted to
elect six of the thirteen directors of the
suld companies and the shareholders are
permitted to elect but six of said directors,
and the thirteenth director Is elected by
the twelve directors previously chosen, is
unlawful and In contravention of the stat
utes and public policy of the state of Mis
souri and is a usurpation by the said Wa
bash company. Its president and members,
of franchises, liberties, powers and privi
leges not granted by law and forbidden
by law to be exercised or enjoyed by said
company. Its president and members.
Hadley Talks of Case.
Concerning the nature of the suits At
torney General Hadley said:
These suits are brought for the purpose
of forcing a discontinuance of the owner
ship of the stock of the Wabash, Missouri
Pacific and Iron Mountain companies and
the control of these three companies, two
of which are paralleling and competing
lines, by the same Interests, and to force
a discontinuance of the ownershln of the
J stock by these companies In the Pacific
repress company, American Kemgerator
Transit company, Rich Hill Coal Mining
company, Western Coal and Mining com
pany and the Kansas-Missouri Elevator
company. By this stock ownership these
r ads have, in fact, been engaging in busi
ness not authorized by their charters and
prohibited by the constitution and lawa of
the state. The forfeiture of the charters
of the coal mining companies and of the
Kansas-Missouri Elevator company Is
prayed for, the license of the Pacific Ex-
i press company and the American Refrlg-
Irator Transit company to do business In
the state is asked, but the forfeiture of
, the charters of the railroad companies la
I asked for only In case they should fall to
i discontinue, within a definite time, these
! usurpations, should the courts so order.
I Illegal practices exist to a greater or less
, extent In the case of a number of other
Missouri roads and other suits will be be
I gun as soon as the work In my office will
I permit. These cases have been under con
sideration nearly a year, ever since the
disclosures Incident to the Gould-Ramsey
contest for control of the Wabash. Their
Institution has, however, been delayed by
pretts of work incident to the Standard OH
and maximum freight liquidation and sick
ness which took me from my omce for
nearly six months.
Gonld Declines to Talk.
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. i.-George J.
Gould when shown the Associated Press
dispatch from St. Louis relative to the
suit filed against the Gould interests in Mis
souri, said he knew nothing whatever about
the matter and declined to discuss the sub
ject.
Later, Mr. Gould laughed and remarked:
"About the only thing I can see is the
fact that Mr. Hadley failed to include In
ternational & Great Northern and the Texas
ft Paclflo railways. He ought to hare
known these were Gould Interests also.-
"Well." he continued, "Mr. Hadley may
be right. He lives In Missouri, the state
where the people have to be shown. He
will find that nearly all the stock owned
by the Pacific Express company and the
coal mines mentioned are not Gould Inter
ests." Jeffrey Is Surprised.
NEW YORK. Jan. f. President Jeffrey of
the Psnver & Rio Grande, who 1s also
chairman of the Wabash railroad and. an
officer of various other properties known as
the Gould system, stated today that tlw
Associated Press bulletin was the first In
timation he received of the action of At
torney General Hadley to dissolve the al
leged merger of the companies named as
defendants In the action. Vnder the cir
cumstances, Mr. Jeffrey said, no statement
could be given out at this time. General
counsel of the Gould lines here will at once
consult with the counsel In St. Louis re
garding the defense of the suit.
HARR1MAX IStUIRY I CHICAGO
Traflle Director Stabba Says Competi
tion Cannot Be Eliminated.
CHICAGO. Jan. . Two attorneys repre
sentiug the government made determined
efforts today to Induce two traffic man
agers of transcontinental railroads to ad
mit that a concentration of ownership
means the stifling of competition In rail
road traffic The attorneys were Messrs.
Severance and Kellogg snd the traffic man
agers were J. C. Stubbs of the Southern
Paclflc-l'nion Pacific systems and J. M.
Uannalurd of the Northern Pacific rallruad.
Both men contended that despite the con
solidation of Interests that has taken place
between the Union Paclflo and the South
ern Pacific and between the Northern Pa
clflo and the Great Northern, competition
between the lines which are under Joint
ownership Is as sharp today as It ever was.
The examination of Mr. Btubbs covered all
points connected with the history and
traffic arrangements of ths Southern Pa
cific, Tnlon Pacific, Central Paclflo and
many of the allied lines which are now
under the control of E. It. Harrlman.
Mr. Stubbs asserted from first to last that
the Union Pacific never had been an ac
tive competitor of the Southern Pacific on
California business for the reason that It
had no outlet beyond Ogden over Its own
rails direct to California. Such compe
tition, he said, as bad existed between ths
two roads In the past Is still In existence.
The t'nlon Pacific, he elalmed, Is but a
link In the transportation between the Mis
souri river and California and not a sepa
rate and Independent line.' In his opinion
it never had occupied the latter position
so far as through traffic was concerned.
When asked if he did not believe that a
railroad which has a large surplus, and Is
paying 10 per cent dividends. Is In a po
sition to favor the public with lower rates
than it has In effect at the present time,
Mr. Stubbs, with considerable feeling, said
that if the Union Pacific was the road
under consideration he would urge the
members of the Interstate Commerce com
mission and. their attorneys to remember
that while ths Union Pacific may be pros
perous now. Its stockholders had experi
enced many "lean years" and ' that there
was no human guarantee that the present
satisfactory conditions in railroad trafflo
throughout the country would be Indefi
nitely maintained. . ' '
Upon the suppression of competition Mr.
Stubbs declared It was not possible for
this to be done, no matter who owned the
parallel lines under consideration. Subor
dinates, with reputations to make or to
sustain, would work for the Interests of
their lines against all other lines and com
petition must therefore inevitably follow.
He asserted that James J. Kill, while prob
ably the leading railroad man In the coun
try, could not abolish competition between
the Northern Pacific and the Great North
ern because of the personal spirit of the
men he employs. "If Mr. Hill takes that
spirit out of his men," said Mr. Stubbs
with much emphasis, "he might as well
hand the management of his railroads over
to a $100 clerk."
Mr. Hannaford expressed similar views
regarding competition.
The only other witness of the day was
M. C. Markham, traffic manager of the
Missouri Pacific. ' ,
Mr. Markham declared that tn his opinion
the Union Pacific was not a link tn trans
continental transportation, as contended
yesterday by the attorneys for Mr. Harrl
man, but as long as the Portland gateway
Is open It Is a Pacific coast line In Itself.
The witness said that before the consolida
tion the Union and Southern Pacific lines
were competitors for the California fruit
trade and for passenger business also.
