You are directed to watch this matter clopely and earnestly oppose any such application on the ground that this is not an ordinary case of equity jurisdiction between private parties, but special and enlarged statutory remedy In equity to enjoin violation of a penal law.

No modification of the decree was asked, ail such matters being left for the formal appeal, which was sure to come In the course of time.

It will be remembered that Harriman's efforts to wrest the Northern Pacific away from the Hill people resulted in his securing $78,000,000 of the stock of that company, most of which was preferred. It was stated that, with his preferred and common stock, he actually had control of the company, but that the common stock had the right of retiring the preferred. Had a settlement not been reached Hill would have exercised his rights as the holder of a majority of the common stock, and retired the preferred, thereby destroying the-iiarriman control. Then came the general conference of magnates in Morgan's office and Harriman's agreement to take Northern Pa- ciflc securities for his Northern Pa- .1 ciflc stock. The Northern Pacific preferred was retired, 4-per-cent.
