Plerpont Morgan testified todai- ln the suit of Peter Powers against ths Northern Pa ct Ao' to restrain that road from convert ing -Ha preferred stock into that of the Northern Securities Company. An eager crowd of brokers and lawyer filled the court room to hear the details of the. Northern Paclflo corner. Morgan said that when the Northern Paotfle affairs began to cause unessiness among the publlo he became convinced that something should be done, and as a - result an understanding was arrived at that the Morgan interests would be left In. control of the road. . , He defined a "Community of Interests" as a body of men who own property and oo wnat tney please with It. Morgan began by saying that his com pany was h$ f financial?, agent for., the Northern Pa6J4o. and that he had absolute charge of " the re-organisation of that road. The Great Northern, he said, was- shar competitor of the Northern Pa . ulflc at various ' points. Regarding the retirement of the. preferred stock, he de clared the dtreoters had absolute power to io that and that the question was not submitted to ther common stock holders as a whole. He suggested to Mr., James , 3. Hill, two years ago, that the Northern Paclflo ought to enter Chicago, ' and ad vised the jmrohase of the St Paul line, h... wanted to buy the Burlington, be cause tt would bring more freight than the St. Paul, but the latter road, refused to sell, so negotiations with the Burling ton were entered Into.
