New York, Aug. 1*.—The taking of testimony In the North Carolina rail road case was resumed this morning before Special Master W. A. Montgom ery at the offices of the Southern Rail way Company, No. 80 Broadway. The state corporation commission Is represented nt the hearing by ex-Chlef Justice James E. Sheppard, of the North Carolina superior court, ex-State Senator H. W. Woodward, ex-Judge W. A. Winston and State Senator Walter E. Daniel. The attorney general'a In terests are looked after by E. J. Jus tice, speaker of the North Carolina house of representatives, and ex-Gov- ernor Charlea B. Aycock. Franklin McNeil and Henry C, Brown, chairman and secretary, respectively, of the North Carolina corporation commis sion. attended the hearing. The rail road’s lawyers are Alfred P. Thom and Walter D. Hines. At the hearing yesterday Mr. Justice read a statement which made It plain that the state authorities had no In tention by nppeartng through counsel In the present proceedings recognizing the right of the Federal court to grant the Injunction. Mr. Thom contended that the appearance of Mr. Justice and Mr. Aycock at the Instance of Governor Glenn made the state a party to the suit and waa practically a waiver of the state's right not to be sued.. Barr Callsd to Stand. Mr. Justice denied that any such right had been waived. The attorney general had been sued nnd It waa the duty of the governor to aee that h* was represented by counsel. Vice President H. B. Spencer, of the Southern, and J. M. Barr, formerly president of the Seaboard Air Line, were the only two witnesses examined yesterday. Mr. Spencer testified that owing to nn Increase In the price of material and wages the operating expenses of rail roads In the South have been steadily growing larger. The operating expenaea of the Southern, he declared, are now 71 per cant of the gross receipts. He said It cost moro to operate local freight and passenger traffic In North Carolina than In almost any other stale traversed by the Southern. Mr. Barr, before he waa president of the Sea board Air Line, served as an officer on the Chicago, Burlington nnd Quincy, the Union Pacific, the Chicago, Mllwaukco and St. Paul, the Norfolk and Western, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and one or two other roads. He corrobo rated what Vice President Spencer had said about It costing more to operate local than through freight trains.' Mr. Justice wanted to know of Mr. Barr If It waa the policy of tha Southern rail way to maintain a monopoly by threat ening to make reprisals on other rail roads that contemplated entering Its territory. Was No Agreement. “I don't think ao,” said Mr. Harr. “Well, did not you say at one time that the Seaboard Air Line could not build Into Greensboro, N. C„ for fear that the Southern would make repti- eaya7" “I did.” "Was there a gentleman's under standing between the two roads In re gard to this?” Mr. Barr objscted to answering that question, but when the master ruled that It was relevant, he said there was none. Wasn't there an understanding that If the Seaboard did enter Greensboro the Southern would make reprisals?" "Thera waa no expressed understand. Ing."
