Newspapers Have
Right to Expose
Unfair Business
NEW YORK, July 1. A newspaper
lias ft lesal right to expose a business
firm's methods of doing business, pro
vided the motives of Us publishers are
open to the belief that they are In good
faith exposing to those who are over
reaching the simple and abusing the
confidence of the credulous.
This was the substance of an opinion
handed down today by Judge Hand In
ihe federal court denying a motion made
by the E.' A. Stout Farm Agency for
an injunction restraining the Rural Pub
lishing company from printing threats
ttf expose the plaintiffs business meth
ods. "While editors are not exempt from
the common motives of other men,"
wrote Judgo Hand, "they may, and In
this case did, entertain a general de
sire to help their readers and expose
such as may practice upon their cred
ullty. That Is a very admirable pur
pose In a newspaper. The refusal ot the
plalntJffB advertising long before this
controversy, became acute, Is a corrobo
ration of that motive."

WASHINGTON, July l.-Dlsclosures to
follow the reopening ot the senate's
lobby Investigation tomorrow are ex
pected to be among the most important
developments in recent years in a con
gressional inquiry. Since publication of
iMartln M. Mulhall's story ot how he
had operated to Influence legislation and
elections In behalf ot the National As
sociation of Manufacturers, scores of
labor leaders, 'present and former con
gressmen and others, have come forward
with requests that they also be heard
by. the Investigators.
Louis J. Selbbld of New York has also
accepted.' service. He has been' called
as a newspaper man conected with tho
publication ot the Mulhall statement to
give the committee what Information he
can as to its preparation and us to the
letters and telegrams Mulhall has agreed
to produce.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
(American Federation of Labor, who
figured prominently tn Mulhall's story
as the object ot a long continued attack
bV those who attempted to bribe, him and
force him to give up his fight In behalf
of labor legislation . has made public
a detailed report ot the attempted brib
ery, it confirms the story told by Mul
hall. j

The Gompers statement Is a-..report
that the labor leader JMfedjyn Wj

Brandenburg, now a convict in 8lng6lng
prison, New York, who claimed to be
)n the employ ot the National Association

Efforts to secure private Interviews
with Gompers aroused the latter's ' sus
picion and. he took a number ot labor
leaders Into his confidence and later
made, a full report to them of tho, oc
currences that followed,

Aqcordlnff 16 this report," Gompers led
Brandinberg nh, until the latter proposed
thnt Gompers should prtparfc a general
statement In the nature of a "confes

dent of the American Federation ot
Labor In 1S0S and should then resign,
leaving tho .federation crippled by his
retirement and the exposure of other
leaders.
Offer lit General. Terms.
"My object' In coming to you Is to say
I want to save you," Brandenburg ls
quoted as saying. "I want to save you,
and while I do not want to express tn
specific financial terms what the Na
tional Association ot Manufacturers is
willing to do, yet I pan guarantee that
you will bo flnantlally safe for the bal

The Gompers report states that tho In
terview, terminated there; that Gompers
succeeded In keeping ,the paper Branden
burg had prepared for him to sign and
that Vice President Duncan and other
officials ot the federation were at once
made acquainted with the circumstances.
President Gompers and other officials
ot tho Federation of Labor probably will
-testify before .the senate committee, as
the alleged activities ot the lobbyists'
bore directly upon national legislation.

CENTRAL HOLDS THE SITUATION
Intermediate System Will Now Be
Object of Interest for Both of
the 'Unscrambled Railroad
Corporations,
That theUrilort Pacific haa. gained
noiUlhsf injlhe" dj,ifo)uUph of th-e merger;
otjSithivJPacjf to. .xnadsV nrtJered by. the
united states cpurt, sitting in st. paui,
Is the opinion of those who havs '.studied
the finding of Judges Sanborn, Hook and
Smith, who" passed on the matters before
them and. ordered the tiling of the final
decree. The decision of the court, how
ever, divorces the Union and Southern
Pacific and permits the first named road
to dispose ot its N&.totfOOO of Southern
Pacific stock.
Decision Is Pinal.
General Solicitor LOomls of the Union
Pacific has returned from-St Paul, where,
before the United Statesfcotirt, he rep
resented the road in ,thV. dissolution ot
the merger proceedings. As to the de
cision of the court, Mr. Loom Is said:
"There Is nothing for us to do but be
satisfied. The decision is final and the
dissolution of the merger, of the Union
aiid Southern Pacific will1 be final as soon
as the decree Is tiled In Utah, where 'he
original proceedings were brought. As
this filing of the decree is merely a
clerical matter, you might say that the
dissolution is complete right at this
moment and that the Union Pacific and
the Southern Pacific roads are Just as
separate and Independent of one another
as any two roads in the United States.
They are operated and managed by dif
ferent seta of officers and tin ntnrlihnMtr
of one road Is a stockholder of the' other."
The dissolution proceedings were, com
menced five years ago ' and have been
fought up and down through tho courts
ever since, and with tho end of the liti
gation the Southern Pacific la still In
possession ot the old Central Pacific, ex
tending from Ogden, Utah, to OaklanJ,
Cal. Thla stretch of practically .1,000
miles was the bone ot contention for
which the Union Pacific was fighting, In
order that It might have a continuous
line from the Missouri river to the Pa
cific coast.
The Business ICejr.
On the other hand, the bid Central Pa
cific was what the SoutheTH Pacific
sought to hold, realising that if It coula
do so, it would still, retain the Huslness
key to the whole California situation so"
far as entrance from the east would be
concerned.
The Southern still holds the key,
but it may be .forced to turn jt over,
an the court decree provides that It must
dispose of the property. This conclusion
of the court Is the only crumb of com
fort that the Union Pacific can discover
In the findings of the Judges. Union Pa
cific interests at this time feel that
when the time comes for the Southern
letting, go of the Central, tht-y will bo :in
a position to step In and buy the prop
erty, paying fully all that It Is worth.
The Southern will be given a reasonable
length of time to dispose of the Central
and It will not be forced upon the auc
tion block. In the meantime the Union
Pacific will continue accumulating and
Investing ita earnings, ana when the
property is sold, either by the Southern
or by order of court, the Union Pacific
will be on hand with the cash.
In Line -vrlh Plan.
The decision of the cuurt At St. Paul is
directly' In line with ono ot the plans that
the Union . Paclflo presented. -as a solu
tion for dissolving thft merger, ordered
by the government This was the cei
tlflcate of Interest plan. Under Its pro
visions the Union Paclflo turns Its
000,000 pt Southern Pacific stor.k over to
a trustee to be named by the court. On
this stock the trustee will issue certifi
cates to any and all purchasers, provided

The United States Department of Aerl
ejuy will, bti' asked by tye- Missouri
KftJley Vetemlary .association -to -Institute
a quarantine of the state of Illinois
to prevent caffla from belhR .shipped out
ot thd state Until the Alarming condi
tion Ot tuberculosis Is cleaned up there
Thla was decided at the meeting ot the
association yesterday afternoon at the
Wocl Rome, The discussion of the tuber
cular condition of tho cattle shipped from
that state especially by ono James Dor
sey of Gilberts, III., and the general
tubercular condition of the Illinois dairy
herds, due to lax laws In that state with
regard to inspection of cattle shipped
In, took up tho most ot the day's session
ot the association.
The subject was brought up by Dr. B.
P. Davis, state veterinarian of Wyoming,
in a pearper which he exposed tho
methods of James Dorsey ot Gilberts,
111., and produced a mass of evidence to
support his charges, In tho afternoon'
a discussion ot the subject was taken'
up, and Dr. John Hughes ot Chicago,
and Dr. Peters ot Springfield admitted
that the conditions In Illinois were
alarming with this respect. The resolu
tion was introduced by Dr. Davis of
"Wyoming and provided that "the secre
tory of agriculture be requested to Im
pose a quarantine on the state ot Illi
nois to prevent the spread of tubercu
losis which affects the herds of Illinois."
Professor B. W. Hunt of the Twentieth
entury Fanner was asked to talk In tha
subject outside the veterinary profession.
He told his experiences with Dorsey ot
Gilberts, and said he had cut Dorsay's
advertisements out of the Twentieth Cen
tury Farmer on account ot his slip-shod
methods of shipping diseased cattle out
of his state to other states, and said he
had prevailed upon other leading farm
magazines to also eliminate Dorsey'a ad
vertising. "We are In this war to stay,v
said Mr. Hunt, "and we will do all we
can to help clean up the herds and pre
vent them from being scattered through
out the other states where they will in
fect the cows of the dalres ot other
states."
Sensational Charges.
Sensational charges regarding the ship
ment ot cattle affected with tuberculosis
Into -Nebraska and Wyoming by James
Dorsey ot Gilberts, III., were made by
Dr. B. P. Davis, state veterinarian of
Wyofnlns. Dr. Davis read a sharp paper
regarding the subject and constantly re
ferred to a stack of lotters, telegrams,
health certificates and charts which he
has labeled exhibits 1, 2, 3. etc., for tho
Information of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture when Dorsey's traf
fic shall be-attacked by the attorney gen
eral ot Wyoming. Attorney General
Preston of Wyoming Is on the way to
Washington now to present the "case to
the Department of Agriculture to havo
the matter looked Into.
"This traffic has been going on for t'o
years," said Dr. Davis, "and In that time
a great many herds In which cows were
diseased have been shipped Into Wyom
ing, Nebraska and many other states.
The laws of Illinois with regard to Im
porting diseased cattle amount to noth
ing. Consequently Dorsey has been able
to collect these diseased cattle. He can
get them for almost nothing. Then they
can be "plugged." as we call It. That Is.
they can.be given the reaction with the
tuberculin tests In rapid succession for a
few days so that when the government
Inspector tests them they no longer react
to the test' and are passd safely until
they can be shipped into neighboring
states.r
