The Proposed Rubber Trust.

NEW YoRK. Feb. The formation of the
great proposed Rubber Trust is now question
of only few days. The committee appointed
to settle the differences between Christopher
Meyer and the others regarding the New Jersey
manuf actories, has effected compromise and
will propose plan Of organization at meeting
to be held within two three days. By this
plan all manufacturers Of rubber goods who
wish to join tho trust will pool their own stock
and turn it over TO the central company in
change for certified shares of the trust in pro-
portionate value Those concerns which
mauufacture rubber goods at the lowest rates
will be continued in operation. while the others
will shut down. The different factories kept in
operation will make different grades of goods,
with the result of making more gbods with less
labor and much smaller cost. Instead of and
8 per cent profit, at present, the firms inter
ested will then be able TO realize 10 per cont
profit annually. The formation Of this trust
will have three great results. The profits for
the consumers will become higher and several
thousand workmen will be thrown out of en-
ploymont without any other resources to fall
back upon The combine involves a working
capital of $50, 100000. and an annual trade of
500, 000 0O0
