Minnesota Begins Its Battle Against
the Great northern
CONTENTION OF THE COMPANY
Action Is to Prevent the Railroad
Company From Issuing $60,000,000
More of Stock?Company Says its
Working Under Old Charter and
Is Doing Nothing Illegal.
(By Associated Press.)
ST. PAUL.., -MINN'., Jan. 8.?The
legal battle started by the State "i
Minnesota to determine the necessity
for the Issue of proposed $60,000,
000 worth of Croat Northern rail?
way block began In the Ramsey
1 County District Court here today
before Judge *Hallani. The State
claims that the Croat Northern
railway in promoting this issue of
stock failed to take into considera?
tion a Slate law which provides !hot
due application shall first he made
[for a hearing before the State Rail?
way and Warehouse Commission as1
to the necessity for the issue for
what purpose the money is to he
used before such an issue can hi'
ma tie.
The State in its bill of complaint
nyi rti that if such an issue of stock
he made it will greatly increase
freight and passenger rates In the
State ami that the patrons of the
railroad will have to hear the bur
don of the increase.
The Company's Answer.
Tlie Great Northern In its answer,
which was road In court today, set
forth that It had the right to issue
this slock by autorily of the charter
of the Minneapolis ami St. Louis rail?
way granted by the territory of
Minnesota in 185G and by acts amen?
datory theieto passed In 1805, In
which the Minnenpolls and St.
Cloud railway was given the right
to issue one or more classes of pre?
ferred stock in an amount not to
exceed $30,.,000, The answer
claims that all outstanding stock Is
preferred stock and that none of Its
common slock has |ie;n Issued, it
further claims that all of the $00,
000,000 of stocit will be preferred
slock ami none oT it common stock.
Attorney Young's Argument.
Attorney Young in opening his
i argument said that'the right of the
Commission to give authority for
the stock Is'sue went to the vitals
Of the situation in respect to the
protection which the State wished
I to grant the people. The defendants
had issued $25,000,000 of stock a
year ago iYiui abosfutely nothing had
been heard of what had been done
with the money. He said it did not
ilo in the mouth of the attorney
of t'.o railroad to say that became
the law had been violated in one
Instance it might be disregarded in
another. The law, he said, had nev?
er been repealed. The records ol
the Attorney General's office did
not reveal such nn opinion. He
said there could be no implied right;
t must be expressly stated.

Reports from the bedside of Mrs.
John B. Kimberly, who was operated
upon for appendicitis Sunday morn?
ing, yesterday were to the effect
that she is doing very nicely.
