TO FIGHT RAILWAY TRUST.
GOVERNOR VAN SAINT TO INVITE OTHER
STATES TO ACT.
rBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.


ST Paul Mimi, Nov. Ex-Governor Van SAINT
decided this afternoon to call meeting OF the
Governors Of all States interested TO fight the
proposed railway merger The time and place
have not yet been announced.
Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana and
Washington, through which the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific railways rum have laws
opposing the consolidation of parallel public
carriers. The Governors of these States will,
consequently, be particularly interested in the
meeting which Governor Van SAINT proposes.
The main object of their fight against the merg-
ing of the two roads is that it would end COM
petition. thus placing both the travelling and
shipping public completely at the mercy OF
trust that would dictate exorbitant rates.
Heretofore the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific railroads have been operated compeu-
lively to the advantage of shippers Hill has at
times given the people along his road an idea
of what he would do in absolute control OF
both lines by wipfng off from the map of the
Great Northern road towns that did not SUIT
his purpose He ordered his trains not to stop
at these places and without transportation ia
cilities they ceased to be in reality.
Governors Dockery of Missouri and Sayers of
| Texas are strictly in accord with Governor van
Sart in his determination TO check the COM
! bnation of railroads. Governor Sayers said
| that If the same conditions existed in Texas he
would proceed Governor Van SAINT Is pro-
| ceeding and take measures to suppress the con-
| solidation by law. Governor Dockery says he
has no fear of such combinations in his State.
| Our laws are amply protective in Missouri.
| he declared. Governor Rogers Of Washington
| is somewhat guarded in his statements He be-
lieves there is time enough to act when II be
comes known that the formation of the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific Railway Trust
| has been effected
| The following statement was given out from
| Governor Van SAINTS office to-day:
Owing TO the great interest OF the people OF me
States west of and the great desire to see the
attempt to consolidate the Great Northern and the
| Northern Pacific Railway lines resisted Governor
| Van SAINT has concluded 10 invite the Governors
Of the States having anti-ConsOdaton laws slIlIar
TO those of Minnesota join in an effort 10 hight
| the great railway trust
! 1t is understood that a conference of the Gov
| ernors is TO be planned TO consider the pest
| methods of fighting the Northern securities
| Companys propositions in the courts anu ny
