St. Paul, April 20-Bofore Judgo Ban
born today arguments aro being made
for and against modification of the de
cree in tho northern securities ca;o. '
Against modification It is ngrued that
it is not in tbo province of tbo court, to'
allow tbo law be to disregarded land that
a rfuspensen of the decrco would allow -the
merger to contiuuo viol i'.in tho law.'
Th a argument that the market will ,bf ,,
effected is ono that will not appear tost
tho court.
Judge Young then began hla
arga-
ment for modification. ' ' '
Jodgd Sanborn, of the Unitod State!
couit of appeals, after bearing the argu
ments, ruled that tho Northern Securi
ties Co. might pay dividends May lst,f
holding that tho federal court by tbd "
irjcctIon to prevent tbo meger from
vjtlnr tho stock ot tbo Northern'
Pacific and Great Northern, a aufficienj
hoi J on the concern. He held th,at the
Injunction against tho paying of ar
dividend was auxiliary, and couid bo
mod fled by tbo court.
Tlio decree permits tho stock boldcrc
cf the Northern Securities to exchange
their stock for the stock of the railways,
for which it was issued. '
If the suprCmo court srH;n IhU do
crop, tho stock holders of the Securities
Company can moke an exchango and
draw dividends irom tho companies, '
If tbo supremo court reverses tho tits "fi
erce, tho same parties cau draw from M
the Securities Company.
Tho rotcntlon

panies while tbo appeal is ponding
would not enhance, for speed, tho en
forcoment of any legal right of tho VaC

justly entitled to receive their dividends,
as soon n9 they aro earned.
