PRESIDENT RAMSEY OF WABASH
ROAD BRINGS SUIT AGAINST
GOULD AND OTHERS.
ATTEMPT TO s1lFLs COMPETITION

WABASH FROM VOTING THE
coMPANY,S STOCK.

tion has been filed in the st. Louis

president of the Wabash railroad,
against the Iron Mountain and Wa
bash Railway companies, the Mercan-
tile Trust company of New York, Wal
ter s. Wilson, H. M. Walker and
George J. Gould.
In his petition Mr.. Ramsey asks the
court to grant him an injunction pre-
venting the proposed annual meeting
of George Gould and his associates at
Toledo, where it Is proposed to elect
board of directors and a president
to control the Wabash road for the
next year. AS a reason he alleges that
one result of this meeting would be
to stife competition In traffic between
the Wabash and Missouri Pacific
roads between ST. Louis and Kansas
City. Mr.. Ramsey sets out In his petit
tion that he Is resident of Missouri,
while the defendants are non-resi-
dents. He owns $4,000 par value of
the debenture bonds of the Wabash
class .'B" and 100 shares of the cap
ital stock He brings the suit, he
says, for himself and others similarly
situated. The Missouri Pacific rail
way, he says, holds 10000 shares OF
Wabash stock, the Iron Mountain
holds $4,000 shares of preferred stock
and SIS, ,435 900 par value OF debentures,
these shares being held In trust by the
Mercantile Trust company Of New
York, Wilson, Walker and Gould.
Gould, he says, owns and controls a
majority of the stock of the Missouri
Pacific and controls the majority of
stock of the Iron Mountain railway.
F. w. Lehman, attorney for Mr.. Ram
sey, says:
1.-The importance of this suit to the
public is that 1t Is suit to enjoin
rival companies of the Wabash from
voting it's stock and debentures."

President Hill Talks on Federal Rate

Portland. Ore, Oct. 4.-President ].
]. Hill of the Great Northern railroad
was the principal speaker at ban
Quet rendered by the Lewis and Clark
exposition to Mr.. Hill and President
Howard Elliott of the Northern Pa
ciflc. President Hill said
Notwithstanding the average rate
paid by the people OF the United
States Is only about 40 per cent OF
that OF Russia we have q great many
people who are preaching doctrine
for the regulation of railroad rates by
federal authority.
1T has been announced In an Old
cial manner that there has been no
redo ction OF rates In the United
States for twenty-five years; that tar
Its have been reduced at times, but
that Whenever q tariff was reduced
the classification was given another
turn OF the wheel and advanced so at
least to offset the reduction In the
tariff.
"The man who made that state
ment did not tell the truth. The re-
duction In the average rate per ton
per mile In twenty-five years on the
Great Northern railway aggregates
9667 10000 That has been the re-
duction that the people have gotten on
one railroad.
II am not afraid that any federal
regulation will ever get down deep
enough to touch us where we live be-
cause long before they do the country
will be strewn with railroad corpses.
Il would bankrupt two-thfrds OF the
mileage In the United States"
