MONTANA WITHDRkWS
OPPOSITION TO MERGER
Governor Toole Says His State-Will Take
No Further Part in the Matter.


CHICAGO, May 3.-Montana has with
drawn from the contest of the Northwest
ern States against the proposed railroad
merger, a scheme backed by the North
ern Securities Company
Governor Toole of that State was in
Chicago last night at the Auditorium Ho-
tel.
Montana will take no active part III
the tight from now on" he said. we
are practically out of it. The State will
abide by the decision given in the Wash
ington case"
DO you mean that you DO not think the
merger will be Injurious in its effects
upon the people of the State and OF the
Northwest" was asked
that viewpoint. My idea was that the
consolidation of the big roads was antag-
onistic to the spirit and the letter of the
law governing trusts, and for that Tea-
son alone joined forces with Governor
Van SAINT OF Minnesota when he took up
the cudgel against it."
DO you care to express yourself on the
probable outcome of the copper war in
your State?''
No; because no man knows what It's
outcome will be. All can do is 10 quote
Sherman's remark on all war in regard to
this particular one It's he'll, and many
innocent folks will suffer by 1t before it

EMBARGO ON COAL CARS
Reports From Miners Say Men Are De

PHILADELPHIA, May S.-Pending some
definite announcement from the Civic
Federation. all the large coal operators
here are preparing for a strike in tie
anthracite fields.
Some of the independent operators say
the Reading. Lehigh Valley, and Jersey
Central roads have placed an embargo
upon all coal cars so as to build up a
reserve stock rapidly at all eolHeries.
1t is known that President John Mitchell
of the United Mine Workers was in PhiIa-
delphia for several hours yesterday in
conference with labor leaders.
This has started the TUmor that in case
Of strike the mine workers will adopt
unusual tactics to win sympathy.
Their plan will not only aid in keeping
the men away from the mines. but the
leaders believe it will furnish a striking
object lesson TO the citizens of the two
largest cities in the East. and also win
for them world wide notoriety.
Several independent operators here say
that this mornings reports from the
mines show that the men are determined
TO strike unless they are given decided
concessions. and no one believes these
concessions will De made

SURVIVAL OF FITTEST
APPLIES TO RAIL WAYS
President Hill Says Such a Rule Holds
True, and Government Can't
Change It.

CHICAGO. May al believe in the
survival of the fttest in the railroad
world the same as I DO IN all nature and
all affairs Of men It is the natural law.
and its operation is as inevitable as the
original sin OF man
This IS one Of the things that James J.
Hill said yesterday in response to a ques-
tion regarding his opinion Of the Govern
meHt's attempt TO control railroad rates
through the medium Of injunctions issued
by the United States circuit court
The connection between the reply and
the subject was soon made plain by the
celebrated railway magnate and fnancier
He explained that the injunction method
Of attempting TO cure the evils that afT1ict
the traffic and transportation world was
simply a subteTlUge and futile attempt
to arrest the progress Of natural Law Of
the survival OF the fttest.
The doctrine thus publicly espoused by
Mr. Bill is one that mas been tabooed in
the railroad world since the sO-caIIed
community or interests Of the spirit en-
gendered thereby began operation.
