Harriman stock deals before Judge Hough
Counsel for Harriman argued the Union Pacific stock purchases followed executive committee recommendations and board approval, with stockholders ratifying. Milburn put the profit at not less than 32 million after losses from a price slump, saying this refutes claims the deals harmed interstate railroads. Kellogg countered that market values were Wall Street quotas tied to the alleged pool. The exchange touched on credit, usefulness of roads, and the commission’s right to inquire into railroad funds. Judge Hough then asked questions.
