GOVERNOR ROGERS DECLINES.
Sees No Remedy for the Trust Evil
But Public Owuer.hin.

ST. LOUIS June ia special to the
Republic from Austin, Tex, says:
Governor Sayers to-day received q let
ter from Governor Rogers Of Washing
ton, declining to attend the antitrust
convention at st. Louis. He presents
his reasons In the following letter:
In reply to your invitation, allow me
to say that it will be impossible for me
to attend. 1t has occurred to me in
this connection that many people are
advocating State control of trusts with
1nsincerty, thinking in this way TO pass
through the next national campaign
with safety to themselves, feeling sure
that whatever State legislation may be
enacted which will really curb the
power Of trusts will eventually be de-
clared unconstitutional by the United
State Supreme Court. With those who
thus and for that purpose advocate
State legislation regarding trusts / can
have no sympathy, and 1 am bound to
believe, too, that legislative action
which seeks to control the formation
and management of trusts will prove
ineffective
1t has occurred to me that corpora
-tions will be- declared to possess a vest
ed and constitutional right to buy and
sell. Clearly, it seems to me corpora
tions, as well as natural persons, have
right to buy. and hence right to
sell whatever is offered for sale in the
market. If sufficient weight of capital
be employed corporation or a natural
person has the ability and the consti-
tutional right to buy all of a certain
product offered for sale, and this will
unquestionably operate to fix the price
at which such product will III future
be sold.
Il am ait a loss to see how the nat
ural and fundamental right of either
natural or corporate persons to buy and
sell can be interfered with by legal en-
actment under our Constitution. For
this reason l can see mo- remedy for the
trust evil save public ownership. This
new question of the trusts is really the
very old one of capital versus labor, CT
! if stated differently, the attempt Of the
almighty dollar to acquire entire SUI
premacy in the affairs Of men. There
is in all this an irrepyessible conflict
which will not down at the bidding of
any State legislature
In addition to this letter the Gov
ernor received brief letters from the
Governors Of Oregon and Pennsylvania
indorsfng the antitrust convention
and promising to be in attendance.

CLEVELAND STRIKE.
More Rioting and Motorman Sc

CLEVELAND (O), June 19-Up to
O'Clock this afternoon this promised
to be the most uneventful day in the
big strike. AT that hour another seri-
Gus riot broke out in an entirely new
quarter, and one non-union man was
sent to the hospital in consequence.
The company began to-day the OPP
GRAFTON of two new lines, those on
Scoville and Central avenues. The cars
were protected by policemen.
Just before i o'clock two Scoville cars
approached the crossing of the Penn
sylyania Railroad There they were
met by a mob of more than 900 men
and women. One of the cars was
taken across the railroad safely, but
the other was held UP by the mob. A
perfect shower of paving bricks and
stones fell about the car and crashed
against the vestibule at the front end,
behind which the motorman was con-
cealed. Women threw bricks and
handed them to the men, who were in
the front of the crowd. The windows
of the cars had been lowered, and the
bricks crashed against the seats and
fell upon the floor of the car. The
y,
torman, A. j. McGraw of ST. Louis,
was struck on the head with a brick
and rendered unconscious He was
taken to a hospital.

and brass bands. A crowd of 5000
persons assembled, but all of them did
not parade. The crowd was demonstra-
tive, but not disorderly.
The ordinance fixing the requirements
for motormen was passed under a sus-
pension of the rules. A resolution was
adopted requesting the Corporation

chises could not be forfeited if it did
not run cars on all it's lines.

men set to work greasing the tracks
at the corner of Pearl street and Clark

vented. The company opened two new
