Hs Stifles Competition.
The by-laws of the Pnlon Pacific
c«»nfer this power upon the chairman
of the hoard of directors and ns Mr,
Hnrrlman. as chalrmnn, was able to
vote $190,000,000 of the Bouthem Pa
cific stock, the naming of the directors
of tho latter company presented no
obstacle to him. *
The directors named by him coincide
with the directors of the Fnlon Pa
cific, namely, E. H. Harrtman. James
Stillman. J. H. Rchlff, Mr. Lovett and
Mr. Speyer.
The manner In which competition Is
stifled by the Harrtman system was
exemplified In the case of the San Pe
dro and Los Angeles Hatlroad Compa
ny, i*>sse**|on of which was acquired
by Mr. Hnrrlman In behalf of the Un
ion Pacific and th* Southern Pacific.
This road In Its contract with the
Union Pacific, the Southern Pacific and
the Oregon Short Line, agreed not to
change Its rates except by consent of
the other contracting roade:
Have the Same Officers.
Decision as to.when Mr. Harrlman
was to testify was deferred and Alex
ander Miller, secretary of the Union
Pacflc and many of their allied lines
of railroads, was called.
Mr. Miller admitted that the Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific, the Ore
gon Short Line and the Oregon Rail
road and Navigation Company had the
very same officers, from the president
down to the counsel and the self-same
directors.
one of the chief objects of the In
quiry by the commissioners Is to show
that the roads mentioned are really
merged und therefore competition has
been completely choked off. Mr. Miller
proved to be an excellent witness for
the prosecution.
Hs Had Stock Books.
Mrs. Antono Petrowsky, the young
Polish woman who came to Atlanta
to Join her husband nnd who walked
the streets for hours unable to make
anyone understand her, U now happi

The husband, who was found Thurs.
day morning by the police at work at
the Houthern shops, called at the po
lice station and t*>ok his young wife to
the home he hail prepared for her. Mrs.
Petrowsky hud spent the night with
Miss Hnnderson, police matron.
When the husband nnd wife saw-
one another there ensued a lengthy pe-
rlod of oscillatory greeting and gen
eral Jollification.

are three men who vote the*e proxies—
E. H. Harrlman, A. H. Humphrey* and

Mr. Harrlman and Mr. Cornlah are
respectively president and vie* presi
dent of the Union Pacific, he said.
"Is there Always a full vote of (lock,

Q. Is II not true that only those com

A. Tea.
Mr. Miller satfl he did not recatt
whether Mr. Harrlman had given him
the list of names to be Inserted In tho
proxies.
At this point Commissioner Lon*
asked the witness who constituted the 1
rxeeutlve committee of the Union Pa-i
elite. MR Miller said there were Aval
of them.
‘‘And they are the same tn all four
rom|«nlrs?" asked Mr. Kellogg. "Who
Is the chairman nf each of these execuw
tlvc committees?"
A. Mr. Harrlman.
Harriman I* Whole Thing.
A. great part of the forenoon seulon
was tnken up with the Identification
of palters by Mr. Miller, all tending
to show that the Union Pacific Is tho
controlling element nf the vast railroad
systems known collectively as the Har.
rlmnn system, and which Mr. Harrlman
has control of.
The hearing also brought out the
fact that the Harrlman aystam got
Its claws on the Chicago and Alton
Knllrnnd Company and on the Rock Is
land road, one of the moat amailng
facts elicited was dl*elo**d by a reso
lution showing thnt at a meeting of

pany! nt which E. H. Harrlman waa th*

of the board, voted a full directorate
