RUMORS OF
HUGE MERGER
Railroad Circles Started BY
Story Of Combine Of Great
Systems

There Is a report In financial and
railroad circles that a plan for the
settlement Of the Northern Securities
litigation has been agreed upon. Fin.
ancial and railroad circles In Chicago,
New York and the entire western
country as well were startled today
by the preliminary announcement of
the proposed plan. The report Is that
the first move will be a harmonious
ending Of the Northern Securities lit
igation, the merger will be dissolved
and the property dislributpd in a
manner satisfactory to the federal au.
thorities who prosecuted the lease,
and at the same time satisfactory to
the big interests behind it. This
method is said to be as follows:
The Union Pacific (Harriman-Rock-
e~feller) to take the Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy, now a part of Northern
Securities.
The Great Northern, also a part
of the Northern Securities company,
to be retained intact by James ].
Hill, its founder and builder.
The Chicago, Milwaukee e. St.
Paul (Rockefeller) to take the North
ern Pacific and thus gain a through
line to the Pacific coast, which it
has long desired.
In addition to these moves, which
Will all be in a manner indicating
friendly relations, the community OF
interests will provide an eastern out
let for the Atchison deal, in which it
is believed that the Pennsylvania,
New York Central and others in the
east figure, as well as Morgan and
Hill. The latter are strong in Erie,
and the proposition to make the Erie
a joint through line from coast to
coast il said to be for the mutual
benefit of all.
Up TO date there has been no def
mite confirmation of the report, but
the story as it has been circulated al
ready has widespread attention and
the keenest interest is eNlttec1.
Toe aasis Is the report arc the ron
licences now being he'd In New
York. These are attended by James
J. Hill, E. II. Hartman, J. Pierpont
Morgan, A. J. Cassett, f. J.. Berwind
and others Of the leading railroad
map makers of the natio. From
sources usually well informed on the
moves of these interests the story
came today, but entirely in the form
OF rumors. These rumors, however,
were sufficient to induce general buy
ing of the securities affected by the
reported combinations.

They are coming, almost in droves,
to the support of Judge Parker-the
independent press of the country.
The latest is>the Daily Herald of
Baltimore, which says:
"Almost without exception the in
dependent newspapers in the country
have decided in favor of Parker and
Davis. There is, in fact, no alterna-
tive if judgment and conscience be
followed. We are entirely willing to
concede to Mr. Roosevelt-we need
not count Mr.. Fairbanks, of Indiana
all that his friends claim for him !;
we have for the man firm respect, and
we believe he is honest and sincere,
but we prefer for the president of this
great nation steady, strong man of
judicial qualities who in calm and
storm will guide the ship of state by
the chart of the constitution instead
of changing his course with every
doing things. Judge Parker has
kept his head in every emergency of
his public life. With Judge Parker
in command there will be no fears of
such melodrama as the administra-
tion's dispatch. we want Perdi-
carts living or Raisouli dead, repeat
ed to a national convention for
round of applause at the expense of
the national pride.

TWO Ro0sEvELTs.

Roosevelt the candidate for the
presidency seems to be different man
from Roosevelt the president. A
contemporary aptly illustrates the
difference by quotations from mes
sage sent by President Roosevelt to
congress in December, 1908, and
from his speech accepting the nomi-
nation for the presidency, says the
Salt Lake Herald.
In the message President Roosevelt
said:
While there may have been as
much official corruption in former
years, there has been more developed
and brought to light in the immediate
past than in the preceding century of
our country's existence. -
In his speech of acceptance the can
didate said:
Never has the administration of
the government been on cleaner and
higher level; never has the public
work of the nation been done more
honestly and efficiently.
Our Republican friends will find
some difficulty in reconciling the
statements of Roosevelt full of power
and Roosevelt hungry for more power.
When he speaks of corruption in the
immediate past he must refer to his
own administration. There was more
of it then, be said, by inference, at
least, than in an entire century of our
national life. If this is true, how
can 1t possibly be that the public
work OF the nation has never been
done "more honestly and efficient
ly1" The statements do not hang
together. They are hard TO account
for except on the theory that the
president was not a candidate for
office when he made his first asser.

DAVIS ON LABOR.

The Lincoln, ILL.,, Courier pub
fishes an extract from letter recent
ly written by ce-Presidential Can
didate Davis, in which he discusses
his labor record. He denies the
charge that he employed injunctions
against his men and asserts that he.
on the contrary, declined to apply for
an injunction when it was suggested
by one of his superintendent. In the
letter he says:
II am glad to have your letter call
ing my attention to the publication

quainted with the circumstances of nv
