This article presents information on the socio-political and administrative development in the U.S. and around the world during the year 1902. One of the significant development being the announcement made from Washington, by the Attorney-General, U.S. himself, that a suit will shortly be begun by him to test the legality of the merger of the Northern Pacific and Great Northern Railway Companies. Further, that the U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt requested his opinion as to the legality of the merger, and that he had recently given his opinion that it violates the provisions of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act of 1890. Another being U.S. Secretary, John Hay's formal protest against the secret convention between China and Russia.
