New York World. The by-pleye and aide remarks of polttlca are often more significant than the official announcements of impor tant happenings. When Jamea J. Hill in a recent casual conversation referred to Attorney General Knoi'a appoint meat to the aeaate aa dictated by the Pennaylranla railroad, and added that Mr. Knox had received a fee of over half a million dollars from the at eel tniat and could afford to be a states man, he tat Oat of the baa: the cat whoee meowa have been plainly heard in high political circles. It waa a eurprfee to many who knew Mr. Knox aa the leading corporation lawyer of western Pennsylvania that he ahould not only bring the auita againat the Northern Securltlee Corn pany, but push them with aucb vigor and success. It waa a eomewhat popu lar opinion that the auita were brought only aa a bluff, and that Mr. Knox did not Intend really to demotion the Northern Securltlee trust In view of the presence of certain gentlemen at the conference which in structed Governor Pennypacker to ap point Mr. Knox United State senator from Pennsylvania In place of Matthew Stanley Quay, deceased, the results of the Northern Securities suit may be better appreciated. Besides Senator Quava eon, Richard R. Quay; UnlteJ States Senator Penrose, former State Senator Fllnn of Pittsburg, and several lesser political personages, Mr. Alex ander J. Caasatt, president of the Pennsylvania railroad, was really the man who named Mr. Knox. Since his reaccession to the presi dency of the Pennsylvania road, Mr. Caasatt has had a hard struggle In troubled seas. His financial alliances were not with the house of J. Pferpont Morgan, then in its ascendancy, and management of the great railroad corporation of which he was the head Independent of the Wall street Influences of which Mr. Morgan was the bead. The Morgan Influence had with It many large stockholders of the Pennsylvania road, and It was Mr. Caaeatt's opinion that ahould the Northern Securities bold, the next atep would be to organize the Southern Se curities and then Anally the Eastern Securities, all of them under the same control and financial management, which would reduce the president of the Pennsylvania road to the position of chief clerk. , The well-known friendship which has since strengthened between the Goulds and the Harrlman and Rockefeller in terests now Includes In Its scope the steel trust, which the Rockefellers control, although at that time the steel trust was organized, financed and con trolled by the Morgan Interests. With the steel trust and Its enormous ton nage as a lever, the Wabaah road was encouraged to enter Pittsburg, and by the purchase of the Western Maryland and the building of a connecting link to Pittsburg a tidewater outlet at Bal timore would be secured. This waa before the difference be tween Mr. Harrlman and the Morgan - Hilt Interests broke out afresh, for at tba time of the Institution of the to f ertiaed, Or. grrtsjr Boarttlas salt the M organ - Harrlman intereata wer bound to gether In the Northern Securities com pany. It will be seen from thia explana tion how welcome to Mr. Caasatt waa the autt againat the Northern Securi ties Company, knd the vast Importance that the succesa of that ault waa to hint. Tba Southern Securities Com pany waa already under way. although the scheme died unannounced when the Northern Securities ault waa brought. To Jamea J. Hill, more clearly than to the outside public, the result of the Northern Securities suit waa clear, and It wa through a little exhibition of temper that he made his comment on the after-fruits, one of which la the present support of Mr. Knox by Presl dent Caasatt. For the Pennsylvania railroad have one of the United States senators from Pennsylvania la only a return to an old custom, which waa broken by Senator Quay because of the miabe havlor of the Pennsylvania road and its participation In factional fights against him. For a number of years the general counsel for the Pennsylva nia road regularly occupied a seat In the United States senate. It was his custom to reelgn aa counsel for the road upon taking his seat in the sen ate, and to be reappointed counsel after his senatorial term had expired. In the great combine against Quay, head ed by Governor Huh tings and John Wanamaker, the Pennsylvania road sided with the combine, and took away from Quay several of his moHt power ful local leaders. Quay's denunciation of Dave Martin of Philadelphia for abandoning him at the behest of the Pennsylvania road will be recalled as one of the few real speeches that Quay made on the floor of the senate. While Mr. J. J. Hill may gnash his teeth, it seems to be pretty obvious that some large corporations at least are satisfied with some of the things which President Roosevelt and hia at torney genera did.
