OIL and beef have little, if any, affni-
sies but both seem to have fallen under
tine same evil inhuences-those of the
spirit of speculative greed. The Standard
Oil Company and the big Four" beef
siEughterers and packers are the respon.
sible parties, and they should be held to
sznswer for the offense of which they are
,nanifestly guilty Such combinations
are either within the pale of the law or
Ghey are not. If there is no law to protect
the people against them, there certainly
should be, even though an amendment to
the Constitution is necessary to make it
effective The growth of the evil has not
only been steady, but it has been alarm
angly rapid. 1t has come upon the country
with great strides, and scarce a day
passes that does not add to the number Of
such dangerous combines. They multiply
and multiply and with each new multi
plication fresh burdens are imposed upon
the people. They are already intolerable
out like the "Old Man of the Mountain
on Sinbads shoulders, they have. foi
want Of restrictive laws, many advan
hages until some favorable opportunity
for getting rid of them is afforded. Why
IL is apprehended by some far-seeina
editors that the Standard Oil Company
will have grown to such proportions
shorty as will enable it to control tn,
next nomination for the Presidency ant
afterward command the situation, as ia
as the election Of its favorite is concerned
This may seem impossible, but in view O
what that gigantic combine and others O
less magnitude, but of the same greed
spirit, have accomplished, there is al
solutely no limit to their power for doin
l1arm.

Green Goods Mon Bagged.

PHILADELPHIA, April 24.-G. W. Rob
inson, John Brash and Samuel Wilkin-
son, notorious New York green goods
men, We're inveigled to this city by de-
coy message last night, and are now
locked up at police headquarters. The de-
tectives learned that the men had been

The men appeared promptly and were
taken into custody. Robinson had nearly
1900 of good money, made up in various
packages, and loaded revolveri Brash

Parnell is now in a critical condition. She
had several convulsions yesterday and has
grown much weaker The convulsions

Death Knther Than Imnrisnnment-

NEW YORK April 24-Julia Gross, the
16yearold girl who disappeared from her
home on East Twelfth street on SATURDAY
night and returned on Monday, was found
lying dead yesterday in the yard of her
residence. Her skull was crushed and she
must have been instantly killed. There
seems no doubt that the girl committed
suicide by jumping from a window on the
fourth floor. The motive for the girl's $
suicide is that her parents intended to send
her away to the House of the Good Shep-
herd. Rather than go there she preferred
to kill herself
