and Inventor of many labor-saving de-
vices in cordage machinery, does not feel
very confident of the success of the
proposed scheme to reorganize the Ma
tional Cordage Company.
He himself Is busy extending the plant
of his own Company, and he predicts
that with an outlay not exceeding S.
100000 he can provide an equipment that.
owing to the advantages his inventions
give him. will enable him to supply the
market the trust hoped to rnonopolize.
Many people attribute the failure of
the Trust, at least indirectly, to MIR.
Good and to the failure of the Trust
In It's efforts to suppress his Inventions
Mr.. Good expresses the belief that
these Inventions viii lenabie him to man

II can be produced by the mills con-
trolled by the Trust, and that no amour,
OF capital can overcome this advantage
He refused to say whether he had been
approached by the present reorganizers
OF the National Cordage Company, but
he alluded to the fact that he had
declined the Company's overtures to him
when 1t was supposed by the public tina
1t was invincible and invulnerable.
