Government 8nd“ to Prevent
Merger Likely to Be In court
Many lltonthe
BOSTON, May 28,—Present indica-
tions are that the next step of the fed-
eral government in its salt to prevent
the merger or the Boston I: Maine
Railroad with the New York, New Ha.
van and Hartford system, and also to
separate the New Haven road from its
direct. railway holdings in Massachu-
sot will not. be taken before next
August. Exactly what the. next move
of the government will be has not. yet
been decided, inaslliuch as an act of
road has replied to the various counlu
of the hill in equity filed in the United
States circuit court yesterday bv llnlt-
ed States District Attorney .‘...u 1’.
French.
The Now York, New Haven and
llarttord Company does not have to
outer an appcurunce in the federal
court until next. ”rule day." which
comes the first. week in July, and the
company is allowed thirty days after
that time, in which to file its answer
to the bill. Consequently hearings on
the the bill cannot begin before Ana.
ust, nor will witnesses be summoned
before. that time.
Although yesterday's bill prays for
a temporary injunction against the
New Haven road. it is not considered
probable that any immediate motion
for an injunction will be made. It it!
pointed out that the recent decision of
tho Massachusetts Superior court corn
coming the New linvon's control of
lilussachnsctis trolley llucs acts as an
injunction on that plume of the case.
while tho so-cailod Colo bill of the
Massachusetts legislation )revouts the
New l-lavcn road from vol m: or other-
wise cnjoying the ownership of its
109,000 shares of Boston and Malnc
