INTEREST ABROAD.
All England Il Watching the Presidential Con
test To-day.

NEW YORK, N. r., November 5 -
A London dispatch says in brief: The
result on the presidential election In
the Emitted States is being awaited with
intense interest. Previous contests and
platforms have always been clear
enough; but this year the English find
that the republican candidate, whose
name has been bugbear to their COM
mercial interests, is entitled to their
friendly sympathy and vice versa.
The London and provincial papers Of
late have stradd.ed the fence by prais-
ing Mckinley for his adherence to the
yellow metal, while criticising his pro-
tective theories, and condemning Bry-
an for his unlimited coinage doctrines,
while approving his views on economic
questions. But the real interest in the
outcome, to-day, is centered in the be-
lief which has been fostered to the ut.
most by American correspondents to
English papers, that the present con-
test is one of labor against capital,
trusts and combines.
For the first time in a presidential
election, elaborate arrangements have
been made for the receipt and display
of news concerning the present sscon-
fiict." in this city and other large com
mercial and industrial centers.

pie who recognized him, and went

DARING ROBBERY.


MINNEAPOLIS. MINI, November 8 -
A most daring train hold-up is reported
to have been perpetrated, this morn
ing, on the Great Northern road near
Anoka. The train was a mixed freight
and one of the cars contained twenty
six harvest hands on their way home
from the north, possessed of more or
less money. When the train reached
Anoka, ii was boarded by three men,
who as soon as the train had gotten
under way, proceeded to hold-up and
rob the harvest hands at the point of
revolvers. Two of the robbers held the
occupants in allegiance while the third
selected his man and went through
him. After the victim was relieved of
what money he had, he was made to
jump for his life. II he hesitated, he
was pushed or kicked from the car.
AS the train was going at very rapid
rate, it is feared that several of the
men were killed.

to-day, were that more than the aver.
age percentage of votes would be cast.

the city very much of holiday aspect.

precinct of Bernalillo county down as
follows:

FERGUSON is absolutely certain to
get 70 to rs of these and probably 70
to 80. Calron can not get more than
10 and probably not more than 8. The
county precincts will be cut to some
extent and the peoples ticket will run
10 to 20 votes behind Ferguson. Hub

ANTITRUST LAWS EFFECT.
MERCHANTS WAITING TO SEE
WHAT THE TRUSTS WILL DO.

They VIII Go Right Ahead With
Business and Await the Result of
the Test Cases, which Are Likely
to BE BrOught-The Sugar Trade
in Georgia Knocked Out If the Law
Is EnfOrced-The Bill Believed to
Have Been Aimed at the American
Tobacco Company.
The Savannah merchants have not yet
decided what course they will1sadopt in
regard to the Calvin antitrust BILL Most
of them are waiting to see what the trusts
propose to do about it. The attorneys of
the various trust companies, at whom the
measure is aimed, are looking into the bill
and if it is defective, or if there be any
way of evading it, they are certain to dis
cover the loophole.
The burden is really on the trusts to
prove whether the law can be enforced or
not. Many of the merchants would be
glad to see the trusts knocked out and
the day of limited contracts and fixed
prices for certain products brought to an
end, provided it can be done without in
the trusts, however, it seems,
intend to go right ahead
with their business, just as they have been
doing. and await the result of the test
cases which are likely to be brought. When
it is decided that the law can be enforced
it will be time enough to make new ar
engagements.
ST. T. So.
leading merchant to a Morning News re-
porter yesterday, 1.-THE merchants in Geor-
gia will not be able to sell any sugar. The
law specifically prohibits dealing in the
product of any trust or combine, the effect
of which is to prevent competition and
control prices The American Sugar Re-
filming Company is not likely to change its
organization or its method for the sake of
the Georgia merchants. 1 do not believe
the law will be enforced to this extent"
The Atlanta merchants, it is stated, will
disregard the law. The belief has been
prevalent here for some time that the
bill was chiefly aimed at the American
Tobacco Company. AM Atlanta mer-
chant confirms this belief. He says:
THE law was aimed at the American
Tobacco Company. There is a certain
manufacturing concern in this town which
turns out indicated cigarettes. Accord
ing to the contract with the American To-
bacco Company, these merchants handling
their goods were not allowed to handle
those manufactured in Atlanta. The At
lanta concern took this up and rushed the
bill through the legislature, declaring that
it was an antitrust bill l venture the
prediction that it will never become oper-
alive"
Col. w. c. Glenn, who represented the
| Grocers' Association of Atlanta in the
| hearing before the governor, is quoted as
saying that 1t is his opinion there is no au-
thority to enforce the law as 1t now
| stands.
