Washington, July 15.—The unani
mous expression of the Interstate com
merce commission has been made pub
lic In a report on the operations of Ed
ward H. Harriman In monopolizing Vnd
dominating absolute control and Influ
ence over trans-continental and Inter
state roads of the West and North
west.
l His Influence and control over many
competing roads In that section were
only prevented by the Sherman anti
trust law. As he himself testified be
fore the commission, hts operations
would be going on today and his Influ
ence given a much wider scope but
for the operation of this law and the
decisive gnove of the commission.
Started With Union Pacific.
Tho report was compiled by Com
missioner Lane. Particular stress Is
laid upon the manner of Mr. Harriman
In securing control of the Sah Pedro
road and his manipulation of the Chi
cago and Alton. His operations start
ed with the reorganization of the Union
Paclflc and a steamer line from Port
land to Japan.
With theee and other Northwestern
properties, the Union Pacific's control
has spread In the past six years with
such power and influence that It now
controls every line reaching the Paclflc
slope from the Canadian border on the
north to tho Mexican border on the
south.
The acquisition of control came either
directly or Indirectly through the pur
chose of stock. Immediately after i
road was purchased or Its control se
cured comnlete unification was brought
about. Thus the complete elimination
of competition was secured. Before
Hnrrlmnn's control the Union and
Southern Pacifies were competing for
Western and Pacific coast business.
For ail this traffic and Immense volume
of business there Is no competition
the present time.
.Many of the lines to the Paclflc slope
were built under and through Federal
patronage and many acres of valuable
lands were given to oesure the compe
tltlon of the roads. The report covers
In detail the acquisition and control of
the various properties now In the net
work of lines and llnlshes with the fa-
mous Alton deal.
The Alton Deal,
r to 1898,” says the report, “the
AltorF road had been for many years
under the control of Mr. T. B. Black
stone, as president, and had paid an
average dividend ex<?edlng 8 per cent
per annum, and fn addition, had ex
pended large sums out of earnings
the Improvement of Its property.
“As appeared by Its books on Decern
her 31, 1898: The cost of Its road and
equipment was 134,153,037.
"It had other assets amounting
15,781,960.
"Making the total valuo of Its prop,
erty 339,935.887.
"Its total stock outstanding was $22,
230,600.
"Its total funded debt $10,779,850.
"Itw other liabilities were $940,957.
"Total $33,951,407.
"About this tlmo Mr. Edward II.
Harriman, Mr. Mortimer L. Schllf, Mr.
George J. Gould and James Stillman
formed a syndicate to buy tills stock,
and bought It for $200 a share for the
preferred and $175 a share for the com.
mon, making the total coat of the
shares purchased $39,042,200.
Indebtedness Expanded.
'In about seven years, to June 30,
1906, the outstanding Indebtedness of
this company was expanded from $33,
951,407 to $114,610,937, or an Increase of
about 380,660,000, and there was ox
pended In actual Improvements and ad
dlttona to the property out of this capl
talizatlon only about $18,000,000, leav.

ties, without one dollar of consideration,
of about $62,660,000, or $66,190 per mile
on the 948.66 miles of road owned by
the company on June 80, 1906.
“It Is contrary to public policy, _
well as unlawful, for railways to ac
quire control of parallel and competing
lines. This policy Is expressed In the
Federal laws and In the constitutions
and laws of nearly every state In the
Union. Competition between railways,
as well as between other Industries, Is
the established policy of the nation. So
long as It Is the policy of the general
government nnd of the states to main
tain competition between naturally
competing lines, the ownership of any
stock by one railway In a com
railway should not bo permitted
such lines of railway should be prohib
ited from having any common directors
or officers.

of steam stasted on a wild run, which

windows. Some one inside fired sev

effect. Several hundred people quickly
gathered In the street and the bricks
continued to fly for four hours, the po
