AN ABSURD SCHEME.
Britons Can Have American Cot
ton Mills if They Want Them.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 5.-The
scheme to buy up the cotton mills Of
the city and of the country as well is
looked upon by mill men as absurd. "a
syndicate could gain nothing by pur-
chasing the controlling interest in cot
ton mills in this country, even if it
were practicable" said a well known
manufacturer to-day. The only posi-
BILE object a trust of this kind could
have in view would be to corner the
market on cloth. As soon as that was
done the printers would build their own
mills, or if the syndicate forced prices
high enough English manufacturers
would flood this country with goods.
The idea is a ridiculous one"

held that the land upon which Bennett
seminary is located is taxable. The
property is owned by D. C.. Bell and W.
A. Mahoney. They held that the prop

The court ruled that as the seminary
had no title to the property, but merely
occupied it on lease, the owners of the
land must pay the tax. which amounted
to $685.
