the Trusts; but nevertheless we are glad

the Trusts; but nevertheless we are glad
to recognize it as beginning
After urging the inquiry into combina-
tions which violate the antitrust act OF
Cogress, the discovery has been made that
there was an association or organization up
in New Hampshire which, in the judg-
ment of the Attorney General, set the pro-
visions of the statute at naught. This
corporation is knownas the American Bob
bin Company. The offenses of the en-
grossers of the manufacture of bobbins
were duly studied by the Department OF
Justice, and it was resolved that they
should be made to feel the terrors Of the
law. The evidence was laid before a
United States grand jury sitting at Con-
cord and that body decided to save the
officers of the Department further trouble
by ignoring the bill.
While this result leaves the combined
bobbin manufacturers free to pursue their
monopolistic course undisturbed, the fact
that something has been done is encour-
aging. 1t permits hope that the Depart
ment of Justice will yet work itself up to
the point of trying to enforce the law
against combinations whose scope is ma
tional and whose monopolistic purposes
are notorious, even if their political influ-
ence is equally great.

THE TINE FOR RESCUE.

The Inevitable result of Arctic explora-
tion is making itself evidenv in the talk
about the organization of a relief expedition
to rescue the Peary party sent to the polar
regions last year. As the last report from
Lieut. Peary's expedition indicated that it
would be in urgent need of succor in the
coming spring it isl clear duty to put the
rescuing expedition in shape for an early
start
When this is done the sober, practical
sense of the country should discourage
further attempts to solve the barren
secrets of the Polar regions. The actual
gain to humanity that can be secured by
any possible addition to its stock of
knowledge about that lifeless district will
not compensate for one-tenth of the suf-
fering and loss of life already expended
with minimum of results.
The invariable succession of relief par
ties by exploring parties gives pertinence
to the current sarcasm that the, rescuers
should be sent out first so as to be on the
ground when needed But a more GER
tain and economical means would be to
rescue the. Arctic explorers before they
start and preserve them by force from
proposed immolation.

An INDEFINITE CHARGE.

The period of uncertainty with regard
to the Internal Revenue Collectorship
ended yesterday with the removal of Mr.
Warmcastie on the general ground of
neglect of duty. The remaining agony
over the appointment of his successor will
be protracted until after Congress reas-
sembles.
This disposition of the case will not Gre
ate an impression favorable to the admin
istration in Pittsburg. The broad allega-
ton of negligence specifies no definite acts
or omissions which call for discipline, and
leaves entirely unsettled the indefinite ru-
mors as to what actually furnishes the pre-
text for this action Warmcastle's wide
circle of friends will refuse to accept such
an indefinite allegation as any ground for
decreasing their confidence in his integrity
and ability, and will not be blamed for
believing that the charges rested on such
slight foundations as to necessitate this
hazy specification. In spite of hints from
official sources to the contrary, the general
belief here is that the negligence most
fatal to Warmcastle's official tenure was
his failure to furnish the brand of political
activity desired by the President.

STAGE NEWS AND GOSSIP,

THERE will be matinees at all the theaters
on Christmas Day.
The sale of seats for next week begins at
all the theaters to-day.
THE pretty plaintive idyl of to-day, "Little
Lord Fauntleroy," will be presented to the
New Years patrons of Harris Theater all
next week.
DANIEL BOONE and his trained lions,
which are said to be wonderful beasts, will
be the sensation at Harry Davis Museum
Theater next week.
NEARLY 100 people will appear in "The Lit
tie Recruit" which is to be given Thursday
night and Friday afternoon and evening of
next week at the Auditorium, on Penn ave-
nue..
IT is promised that "Birds of Feather"
which is next week to be played at the
Grand Opera House, has nothing but laugh
ter in it, and Charles Bowser, Frank McNfsh
and other comedians in the cast ought to
make the promise good. Less clear in its
meaning is the title "melodramatic COM
edy," with which "Birds of u Feather is
labeled.
TO-DAY the change of bill at the Alvin
Theater is radical. In place of Jefferson
and his associates in high comedy there will
be John E. Rice and corps OF low come
dams in new :, .;u farce comedy called "A
legitimateIy funny than most such things
usually are. A feature of the farce is
the dancing of a minuet in the Kirmess
scene; and for the dance and the costumes
of those who figure in it much Is promised.
Jack ROYAL of the SD" is the successor
of .aThe Still Alarm" and it comes to the
Biiou Theater next week with Harry Lacy
in the heroic role. "Jack Royal is q war
time play, telling story OF the Draft Riots
in New York City in 1868, and is said to be
desperately exciting. William A. Brady is
the manager, and has mounted the play in
his wontedly lavish style. "Jack Rovaiv is
from the pen of the distinguished New York
critic, "Nym Crinkle," A. G. Wheeler.
MANAGER HENDERSON will bring to the
Duquesne Theater next week his own great
spectacular extravaganza "Sinbad, or the
Maid of Balsora," just fresh from great
triumphs in Chicago and the West. In "The
CRYSTAL Slipper and "Blue Beard" Mr.. Hem
derson gave the public finer spectacles than
this city had ever seen before, and he has
done what most managers in this field COM
spicuously have not done, kept his promise
to the public. He says, and the Chicago
papers have borne the statement out, that
the ballets, the scenery, the costumes and
the actors in "Sinbad" are better than they
were in his previous productions. The list
of special features in "Sinbad" are worth
examination.
THERE is no denying that Richard Mans
fields name upon the bills is a guarantee of
an artistic performance,andt the reception of
his work this season elsewhere has Justified
his claim TO have surpassed all previous
efforts this season. He brings to the Alvin
Theater next week company containing
Miss Beatrice Cameron, Miss Emma v.
Sheridan, w. J. Ferguson, as well as others
OF ability. Miss Sheridan has won popu-
larity with The DIsPATCH's readers as an
author since she was last seen here. Mr..

A Californian Invents . Vehicle to Go to
the North Pole Ir.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec pa young Califor-
nian, of Truckee, thinks he has solved tho
problem of Arctic travel, and brought the
North Pole within the pale of civilization.
The machine he has invented is a sort OF
steam motor sleigh. He has been using the
first machine which he econstructed-a small
one run by hand power-for snow and ice
travel among the mountains during the last
two years with entire success.
He is now having made at the iron works
a large one to be run by steam power. If no
Arctic explorer takes advantage OF this new
means ofreaching the North Pole by express,
he will use it for hauling passengers and
towing logs and carrying freight in the high
Sierras, and will have 1t on hand for trans
ferring passengers over snow blockades on
the Central Pacific. The sleigh bed is sup
ported by two double 12-foot runners. The
engine, of six-horse power. is placed in the
rear end OF the vehicle, and the whole
machine weighs only 1S00 pounds. Screws
in the rear drums gauge the depth of the
"bite'' of the shovels. The machine needs
no roads, can climb steep grades, and go
anywh here. over snow or ice, where the way
is not obstructed by thick timber or perpen-
dicular cliffs.
