den, prominent Baptist clergyman, for
merly of Galveston, now OF Dallas has been
interviewed at length on. the
status of the various bodies of
his denomination in Texas, says the Bap-
fists are now the most united people
in the state, though a year Or
abroad that great dissensions existed.
Some of the organizations are not
yet working in exact harmony,
though there is no open oppo-
sition. Absolute unity OF
purpose is needed. In his judgment, the
only practicable plan is have one general
body for the whole state.
1t Is rumored the Galveston stockholders
of the San Fe railway have made an
agreement among themselves by which not
only the earnings, but also their stock,
is pooled for period OF five years.
The design is to keep the road in the
hands of Galveston men, who will operate
| it for Galveston against any combination
outside. There are about thirty-fve
Galveston stockholders who hold the con.
trolling amount of stock in the company.
They have agreed among themselves to
pool all interests and vote against any sale
of the road. The terms of the
arrangement are said to be strong and bind
ing. No member of the pool can sell his
stock to an outsider at or under
par, and if he sells to an
outsider at a premium he forfeits the pool
to double the amount of the premium he
has received. This means simply no fight
can be presented by another line that
will not be met by the pool. Galveston
stockholders are in favor of connecting
with Kansas City from Dallas by way
of Paris. There is free talk OF
railroad construction. The Fort Worth
e Denver railway, of Fort Worth, is
an other that has been suggested
as one of the Santa FEES
good points. What will be done can not be
stated, as all this is given merely as rumor.
