existence Of trusts and other huge
aggregations of capital, the object OF
which is to secure the monopoly OF some
particular branch of trade, industry or
commerce and to stifle wholesome COM
netition. When these are defended 1T is
usually on the ground that though they
increase profits they also reduce prices
and thus may benefit the public. 1t
must be remembered, however, that
reduction OF prices to the people is not
one of the real objects OF these organl-
cations nor is their tendency necessarily
in that direction. If 1t occurs In par
ticlar case it is only because 1t accords
with the purposes or interests OF those
managing the scheme.
Such occasional results fall far short
of compensating the palpable evils
charged to the account OF trusts ana
monopolies. Their tendency is to crush

The Swiss Parliament.

A parliament at which the discus
sions are carried ON in three different
languages is probably unique.
The country where this singular fact
occurs is we'll known to English tourists
viz, Switzerland. But few, believe,
have ever had an occasion to be present
at the sitting Of a Swiss parliament
The languages spoken by the men,
bers are French, Italian and German.
Italian, true, is not as often employed
as the other two, the members for Tes-
sin, a canton in the south, very often
delivering their speeches in French. As
almost every educated Swiss speaks
French and German, members are there
fore able to understand each others
speeches, although spoken in a different
language to their own.
1t also often happens that when a
French speaking member wishes to
make stronger impression on the Ger
man speaking part Of the house he de-
livers his speech in German, and also
vice versa. -Pearsou's Weekly.

 STAR POINTER WINS AGAIN,
Defeats Robert J. and Frank Agan at Lo
 isvilIe-Best Time, 2.O3

Lexington, Ky, Oct. 7.-The races to- day were decided on fast track. The free-for- ali pace, purse $2,000, with Frank Agan, Robert J. and Star Point CT as starters was the leading attrac- tion. Pointer was the favorite, but the other two made it so hot for him in the first heat that he had to go in 2:03 to win, which breaks the track record by two seconds. Star Pointer took the next two heats in 2:04% and 2:061s, re- spectively, thus winning the race. Frank Agan was second, and Robert J. third.
 The Wilson stakes, for 2:20 pacers, $2, 900, had seven starters, with Heir-at- Law big favorite. Royal Victor won the first heat, and lowered his record six and a half seconds, but the favorite took the next three and the race. He had to lower his record to 2:071s. Roy al Victor was second and Bright Light third. This is the fastest Wilson stake ever paced.
 The 2:16 class trot, purse S1,000, was won by the favorite, Rose Turner; Satin Slippers second, and San Marco, third. Best time 2:13.
 In the 2:24 trot, purse $500, Royana won the first heat, but Woodford the favorite, took the next three and the race. Royana was second and Sele- brate third. Best time, 2:19.

TEL ELECTION c EORGI4.
Democrats Claim the State by 3O,O0O-
 POpulists Denv IL


 Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 2. The polls through out the state closed at o'clock and from bulletins received the indications are that Atkinson's majority for gov ernor will not be less than 30,0OO Chairman Clay, of the democratic state committee, says: 'It is impossible to predict with any certainty the size of the democratic majority. The count will be slow. Telegrams from demo- cratic leaders in every county almost without exception report that the re- suit Is satisfactory, and seven out of every ten report an increase over two years ago. It looks as if the majority will not be less than 30,00O."
 Chairman Cunningham of the popu- list committee, does not concede the sate: He says: "The ticket is a long one, and the count will be slow, and when the result is announced it will be found that there have been many sur prises. Even if it should develop that our ticket is not elected it will be found that the other has won by a mere scratch"
 The vote of Atlanta is much lighter than was expected The registration in the county is 12,O00 but the vote will probably not exceed 1000. Atkinson's majority in this county will probably be about 1000. Reports from Macon in- dicate a majority of about 1000 in that county, while reports from Savannah and Augusta indicate a majority of about 5000 in each of those counties. Atkinsons majority in the state two years ago was 24,000.

TALES CHANGES NARROWING.
Her Tennis Men Received the Worst of
 Yesterdays Matches,

Yesterdays Matches.
 Owing to the heavy condition of the grounds the play in the Intercollegiate Tennis association was somewhat disi arranged yesterday morning, and only two matches were played, resulting as follows:
 Doubles-Ware and Scudder of Har- ward defeated Goodbody and Perry of Williams, 6-1, 6-3. Singles-Dodge of Yale defeated Foster of Harvard. 1-6. 6-2, S-6. Tn the afternoon Hackett and Hooker of Yale were defeated by Ware and Whitman of Harvard, so, 6-3. In the singles, second round, Whitman of Harvard defeated Hooker of Yale 6-2, 6-2. Thompson of Princeton defeated Dodge of Yale, 1-6, 6-3, 7-5. In the first round of the doubles Hooker and Moves of Yale defeated Wilson and Rogus of the University of Pennsylvania, GO, 1-6, GA.
 This forenoon at 10 o'clock DriscolI of Georgetown, who defeated Budlong of Brown Tuesday in one of the best matches of the tournament thus far, will play Ware of Harvard. Much de- bends on this match, as if Driscoll wins it will go far towards preventing Har- ward from winning the cup Another match of considerable interest to be played this morning is that between Dodge of Yale and Whitman of Har- vard Whitman is booked to win, but the match promises to be a good one.
 This afternoon Ware and Scudder of Harvard will play Barrows and Bud- long of Brown at 2:30, and the match promises to be a hotly contested one. Hackett and Dodge of Yale will play Graves and Mason of Princeton at the same time
 An annual meeting of the interco4le-s giate association was held yesterday at the Lawn club house at 12 o'clock. Thompson of Princeton was elected president, Ware of Harvard vice presi- dent, and Dodge of Yale secretary and treasurer. The Wright & Ditson ball was accepted for the coming year, and it was decided to hold the next annual tournament during the week of the first Tuesday in October, 1897 The tourna- ment will be held in this city on the Lawn club grounds. Forbes of Har- yard and Thompson of Princeton were elected delegates to the National Lawn Tennis association meeting to be held In New York in February.
 Driscoll of Yale has a hard task be- fore him to-day to defeat Whitman and Ware of Harvard or allow Harvard to win the cup. Whitman will probably defeat Dodge of Yale, and if DriscolI defeats Ware, that will leave he and Ware matched in the finals. Bud1ong and Barrows may defeat the Harvard men in the doubles, and the match will undoubtedly be a hot one. Yale's chief reliance outside of Driscoll is that some other college will win first in the sir- gles or doubles and thus keep Harvard from winning the cup again. Should either Yale or Harvard win both the singles and doubles, the winning col lege would get the cup as a permanent trophy, and Yale's hope is that some other college will shut Harvard out in case Driscoll fails to win out. Hackett and Ware Of Yale have never played together, and so there is considerable doubt about their winning the doubles match.

E. s. GREELEY & co. FAIL
GENERAL GREELEY AND J. ". SANDS 4PPOINTED RECEIVERs.

Liabilities S165,0oO = Cause Due to
 shrinkage in Values and Depression in
 Business-The Concern Has Been Com
 ducting Losing Venture for Some
 Time-News Complete Surprise.
 New York, Oct. 7.--E. S. Greeley & Co.,, manufacturers of telegraph and railroad supplies, electrical apparatus etc, 5 and z Dey street, and at New Haven, Conn.,, are in financial difficult ties and Judge Lacombe of the United States court has appointed General E. s. Greeley and J. w. Sands, the secre- tary, receivers. The business was es- tabltshed forty years ago by L. G. Til- lotson & Co.
 General Greeley became partner in that firm in 1865 and in 1884 succeeded to the business after the death of Mir Tillotson. The firm style was the E. s. Greeley X Co.,, and became incorporat- ed in 1887 under Connecticut laws with capital of $250,0OO
 The business was formerly consid- cred very profitable, but for the past three years on account of the great shrinkage in values and depression in business it has beene carried on at a loss. This, together with the stringen- cy of the money market for the past few months, inability to make sales or to collect and severe losses by bad debts are ascribed as the cause for the receivership.
 The liabilities are s165,0O0, of which $65,000 is for merchandise and $70,000 due on notes. The assets in this city are $1S0,000 and in Connecticut in $500 in office furniture
