In the mean time the question Is what is to become of this great railway system which the New Haven now controls and the commission believes that the pending suit does not promise solution of tho situation. For the purpose of holdlns together these sixteen street railways al least until 1t appears desirable to dismember the combination, the com mission recommends that the New Haven company be required as con dition of its acquiring control of the Boston and Maine to transfer it's shares of Massachusetts railway com panies to a new corporation to be formed for the purpose, the shares of the new corporation to be issued upon an equitable basis in exchange for the shares transferred

GETTING READY FOR GORE.

Every arrangement has been made for the big meeting of the democrats on Friday of this week. when United States Senator Gore of Oklahoma will be here to deliver an address at Stein- ert's Athenaeum at the mass meet ing at D. m. The public and ladies are invited.
 Four very important events are scheduled for Friday, events that will be of deep interest to every loyal democrat in Connecticut. In the first place the members of the democratic state central committee will have a meeting about noon to fix on a date for the state convention, at which delegates will be elected to the na- tional convention to be held in Den yer in July
 The Bryan league of Connecticut will be organized on this day, and there is great interest taken in this organization by every determined and loyal democrat in favor of Mir. Bryan | for president.
 The Bryan league will be similar in its organization and purposes to the league organized in Boston recently.
 The third event of importance to the democrats will be the dollar din- ner to be held In Steinert's Athenae- um at 6:30. This is to be made doubly interesting by the fact that promin- ent democrats from all over Conneec- ticut will attend the banquet As has been announced. the tickets for the banquet are s1 each, and can be had of John F.. Doughan, who is in the assessors office In City hall; of w. II. Hewitt at sos Chapel street, and at l The Union office.
 In the evening in the large hall in Steinerts Athenaeum there will take place the mass meeting, at which Senator Gore, one of the most elo- quent speakers in the country, will make the principal address.

MERGER APPROVED
Massachusetts Commission S Report Favorable to New
 Haven Road.
SUGGESTS REGULATION ACT
Gives Opinion on Acquisition of Street Railways and Recommends
 Transfer.

Boston, March 1S.-The approval of the so-called merger of the Boston and Maine railroad with the New York, New Haven and Hartford system, with certain well-defined limitations, is the feature of the report of the special commission on commerce and indus try, made to the Massachusetts legis- commission, J. B. Warner, the chair man. George C. Crocker, and Charles Francis Adams, 2d, agree on the main report, but the other two members of Douglas and James R. Crozier, each submits a minority report giving their objections to the majority report on the merger.
 The commission also reports on the acquisition by the New Haven com pany of sixteen Massachusetts street railways. on the laws regulating the issue of stock of public service corpor- ations, and, briefly, with the lease of the Boston and Albany to the New York Central railroad. In each case it submits recommendations, and in the ease of the proposed merger of the Boston and Maine with the New York, New Haven and Hartford the commits sion suggests the lines of an act to be drawn by the Massachusetts railroad commission. The suggestions for such an act are as follows:
 Proposed Act of Merger.
 CD That the New Haven company shall be permitted to hold the stock of the Boston and Maine, which it has already acquired, amounting to 100000 shares, or S6 per cent. of the capital stock of the road, and be required to exchange it's own stock, share for share, for all the stock of the Boston and Maine that may be offered for ex- change, prior to July I, 1909.
 @ That the Boston and Maine and the New Haven shall remain subject ao Massachusetts laws.
 (3) That the New Haven railroad shall not increase rates of transporta- tiOn.
 A) That the principal officers of the Boston and Maine road shall remain in Boston. it's managers shall be resi- dents of Massachusetts, and it's direc- tors shall be residents of some of the states in which it is incorporated.
 t5) That the New Haven shall not dispose of it's holdings of Boston and Maine stock without the consent of the Massachusetts ratlfCad commission
 te.) That there shall be no transfer

to or acquisition by any third party of the Boston and Maine or the New York. New Haven and Hartford, without the approval of the railroad commission.
 CD That if the provisions of the act are not satisfactory at the end of five years, the State may purchase the Bos- ton and Maine stock held by the New Haven road
 S) That the Boston and Maine stock shall not be voted by the New Haven road, provided the control Of the New Haven passes to any other corporation.
 t9) That there shall be reciprocal re- lations in regard to docks and termin- al facilities in Boston between the New York, New Haven and Hartford. Boston and Maine, and Boston and AL bany railroads
 The commission was appointed in July, 1907, to investigate the present condition and future possibilities of in vestment in the commonwealth. the present condition and future possibii- ties of transportation and facilities connected with it. of manufacturing in- dustries, the effect of relations of cap- ital and labor or of local or State leg islation upon such industries, and in general to pursue any line of investi- gation bearing upon the future of the industries of the commonwealth.

Act Which Prohibited Merger.

An act of the last legislature pre- vented any attempt on the part of the New Haven road to control the Bos- ton and Maine railroad by reason of a purchase of 3e per cent. of the stock of the latter road by the former. It did authorize the New Haven road to bring before the railroad commission CTS at any time the question of wheth- CT the consolidation was consistent with public interests. The provisions of the act expire on July i, 1908 As the New Haven has not taken, and does not in tend to take. any action before the rail- road commission toward such con- solidation, the commission found that with the expiration of the restrictions on the holdings of Boston and Maine stock by the New Haven in the near future there was danger of the general court converting without the advantage of a preparatory investigation
 The New Haven road has announced that it does not desire to consolidate with the Boston and Maine, but to hold the stock which it already has with all the incidents of ownership, and, if per- mitted, to operate the two railroads to- gether as one system.
 The commission believes that New England needs to count for more in the railroad scheme of the country. and the way to accomplish this is to add to her importance by unifying her in- terests. If traffic of southern and north ern New England were united, it would make volume of business which could command trunk lines a degree of con. sideration not hitherto secured. The commission is greatly impressed with the importance of Canadian business to Massachusetts. and believes that if properly encouraged the relations with the Canadian railroads should becomA of immeasurable value
