A HISTORY OF TRUSTS.
The Big Combines Known to be In
Operation.

NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-The Times publish
as fiye-column history of the various trusts
known to be operating. The list is headed
by the sugar trust, value of plant $15,0OO,oOO
capitalized at $50, 900, 900 and actual sales of
stock at so, indicating dividends on S4S,0OO.-
600 the value of the monopoly being there
fore S33. O,0CO. Ten firms compose the con-
trolling interest The castor oil trust is next
on the list. II has raised the price from 40
cents to $1.24 gallon, but is not a very ex-
tensiye affair, SO far as capital is concerned
Scnool states are trusted" and have advanc-
ed 175 per cent in price. Linseed oil has
been advanced IL price from 3S cents per gal
lon in 1887 to 56 cents now, The capital Of
the trust is s11. .CoO,oOO. The steel rail trust
forced prices up from $27 to $40 per ton, but
they have been unable to keep them there,
and now are accepting $3.50. Andrew Car
negie is said to have made $1,000 day Tor 800
days, while the price was up. The iron ore
trust is big affair, but figures seem difficult
to get concerning its operations. II seems
pretty certain, however, that the bulk OF the
best ore lands in the country are IN the nands
of the syndicate. The Bessemer steel trust,
plow trust and the thresher trust are DONG
well, but figures are lacking. The steel and
q ton for what costs them about $40 a ton to
make The nail trust is too recently formed
to permit of figures being given but, prices
have already advanced. The wrought iron
pipe trust has put up prices q per cent. and
put wages down 10 per cent The iron nut
trust was formed on January Goth, and is a
quiet but lucrative combine. The stove trust
is yet young, but with immense posslbili-
ties The paper bag trust has 81, 0o0, 600 cap
ital. Mr. Arkell of Conojoharie is its Presi-
dent, and Congressman George West, who
owns valuable bag patents, is its leading
spirit. There is trust of honey producers
being formed--not of bees, but the owners OF
bees. The oil cloth trust is said to have ad-
vanced prices 65 per cent.
Under investigation.
NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-The committee OF
the State Senate took up the investigation OF
the sugar trust today. Theodore Havemey-
er testified that the production of sugar since
December when the trust was formed had
decreased % per cent. and the price had gone
up. Certificates have been issued for $45,-
Oco,Cco representing three or four times tae
value of the interests purchased. Members
of the trust cannot withdraw if they wish to

and these two great organizations were act
ing in union for the promotion of that great
object. The civilization of the present day
had developed crime to an extent almost
unknown in the annals of the race. so that
crimes against girls and young women, es-
pecially in large cities, come to be worse
than were ever perpetrated against the wom-
en- of Circassia. He believed, in fact knew,
that the appeal thus made to Congress in fa-
vor of womanhood would not be in vain, and
asked that the memorial and bill which had
been prepared on the same subject be referred
to the judiciary committee. 1t was so ordered;
Among the bills introduced and referred
was one by Senator Hoar in aid of the erec-
tion of monument to the memory of Gen.
Joseph Warren, who fell at Bunker Hill; al
so one by Senator Chandler to make the COM
missioner of fish andsfsheries an officer OF the

The bill to incorporate the Washington
Cable Electric Railway Company OF the Dis
trict of Columbia, was taken from the calen-
dar for consideration. When the amend

that the rails be Of American manufacture
was reached, Senator Edmunds suggested
that it was in opposition to the Presidents
message and at variance with all the prlnci-
pies of the Administration. 1t was also OPP
posed by Senator Vance as unusual In Dill
of this character and altogether absurd.
Senator Edmunds, to have the votes Of the
Senators on record on this indirect tariff
question, demanded the yeas and nays. The
vote was taken and the amendment adopted,

HOUSE.


Among the executive communications laid
before the House, Monday morning, was one
from the Secretary of War in response to the
Boutelle battle flag resolution. Referred to
the committee on military affairs.
Mr.. Culberson of Texas, on behalf OF the
committee on judiciary, moved to suspend
the rules and place upon its passage the Hoar
joint resolution proposing constitutional
amendment changing the date of Inaugural
tion day and extending the terms of members
of Congress until April 30
Mr.. Collins of Massachusetts supported the
measure.
Mr.. Reed regarded the proposition as a
step in the dark. 1t was proposed to add two
months to the present term of Congress, a
step which had no justification in reason or
good sense. The reason why the short ses-
sion was crowded with business was not its
length 1t was crowded because it had a
fixed term, and would ibe crowded whether
the term ended on the 4th of March or the
3oth of April, or the Both OF August. Inc Inc
real reason for the change was that the last
day Of April would be much nicer holiday
for Washingtonians than the 4th OF March.
Laughter.
Mr.. Lodge OF Massachusetts tnougnt Una
changing the date to more pleasant season
was certainly not an objection. 1t was wor,-
thy of consideration that Washington had
been inaugurated on the 30th of April. The
real reason for the Oh ,nge was the fact that that
an addition would be beneficial to the inter
ests Of the people and that its indirect t. effect feet
of the most disagreeable months of the year.
Other members followed and Mr.. Collins
again spoke. He quoted Speaker Winthrop
as sbeing the first person who suggested by
his Grafton upon the completion OF the Wash.
ington monument the change of Inauguration
day. He replied to remark in reference to
Winthrop, made by Mr., Reed ltS i the effect 1ssr
of the House, a long time ago. and declared
that Winthrop was just as live a man in this
generation as the gentleman from Maine, and
that he (Collins) would rather give heed. to
the sayings of such man as the Massachu-
chusetts statesman than be diverted by the
ehallew porsiffage of the modern politician
The motion to suspend the rules and pass
the Joint resolution was lost yeas, 129; nays,

frmative. The House then ad journed

Secretary Endicotts Repy'
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2O.-The Speaker
laid before the House today voluminous
report from the Secretary of War in response
70 the BouteIe resolutions calling on him
for the history of the flags captured in the
war. The report quotes the resolution in
full and then traces the history of the dis
position of the captured flags. Accompany
ing the report are number of exhibits,
heretofore published, including the lists of
recaptured Union flags, delivered by the war
department to the State governors and 9TH
ers and of Confederate flags delivered to
certain parties on application; the letter of
the adjutant general, suggesting the return
of the flags with the Presidents approval; f;
the Presidents revocation and a descriptive
list of flags remaining in the department as
far as identified. The Secretary states that
none of the flags have been out of the war
department during the present administra-
tion, but some were returned to the captors
under the administration of Secretary Stan
ton. The law of 1914, the Secretary says,
applies to the return of flags, captured from
foreign countries, but there is nothing to au-
thorize the return of flags captured in the
ITnitad Sfatas
