The Dry-itOck Trust.

The last monopolistic combination is
the Dry Dock Trust This syndicate,
which has acquired all of the New York
and Brooklyn dry dock had it's incep-
ton in the city of Philadelphia and has
already made its power felt by driving
out of business several OF the smaller
docking companies and doubling the ex-
listing Hooking rates besides shutting
down many of the ship-repairing firms
who are debarred from bidding on ship
repair work by the lack of docking facil-
tiles other than those controlled by the
Trust
While the greed of the syndicate which
Is engineering this scheme of monopoly
Is reprehensible, there is ever just law

The success of the Texas on her hrst
