WE have a law in these United
States against trusts. But what
good does it do? Every day new
trusts are formed and combines are
made; and prices of every article
manufactured and produced are
run up or down as the interest and
cupidity of the spectators demand
The rich grow richer, the poor
grow poorer; and still the Iliad of
our woes and the cOuntry's hard
ships has not been written. This
country is fast becoming a nation
of very wealthy people and very
poor people. The rights of the
poor are being suppressed and
trodden under foot by the might
of the rich; and the day is not far
distant when, even in these United
States, where we boast of our free
dom and independence, when il
will be lord and master.

A BOARD of naval officers has
decided who were entitled to the
most credit for the victory over
'Cervera's feet at Santiago. They
say the principal part of the de-
struction wrought against the
Spanish battleships is to be credit
ed to the Oregon, Iowa and Texas;
that Schley did an unimportant
amount Of signaling during the
battle; that Sampson was nine
miles away when the last Spanish
vessel, the Colon, was sunk; that
the battle was fought according to
plans laid down by Sampson. Thus
it appears that Commanders Clark
Evans and Philips did the work,
Schley the signaling-and Samp-
son gets the credit and the spoils.

times before history, they are bareheaded.
1t was only after the republic was declared
that they began knowing the delights of
millinery. Here by the river the great
heads of hair. which are the glory of their
race, guard them from the cold winds that
sweep down the river in winter. Their
skirts are turned neatly back in the curry
Ing folds which have given more than one
idea to the fashionable dressmakers At
the throat the bodice Is opened for easier
hreathtng-to the disclosure of far more
beauty than the decollete gowns of arti-
fetal fine ladies'. The young girls that
fetch and carry step off like queens.
When They Marry.
Men are an incident in their lives chiefly
important when the time comes to marry
They will take some one Of the brawny,
merry workmen whom they see working
like themselves. along the Seine. Then he
becomes an incident again-uness he imi-
tates his betters by expecting her to sup
port him while he drinks. At the marriage
wear dainty white veil and gown and
Grange flowers. and he will be in full dress
at high neon for the ceremony. They are
Parisians and know what is correct.
Afterward they may or many not live
ever happily. The queen of queens Of four
years ago Is already separated from her
husband, who was perhaps attracted by the
few hundred francs which are presented on
lhat occasion to the royal young washer
woman. One of the queens, on the other
hand, has married the son of her proprie-
tor, and still shows off to advantage the
diamond ring presented by the students.
All shake their heads this year with regret
that the students thoughts have turned so
lightly to their rivals of the markets.
Meanwhile, they go on slapping the dirty
linen. sousing 1t in Mother Seine, rubbing
and wringing, and dreaming of better times.
They know they are an object of envy to

Has not NJ. Dagnan-Bouveret, who has just
sold picture fer 100000 francs to Pitts
burg iron king, painted them in a picture
for the Salon? All up and down the river
bank they work and live their lives like
the rest of us. 1t is only the American
visitor who blames them for the naughty
work of the Eau de Javel, which eats his
precious shirts away. That is from the
new-fangled, patent, swell laundries, which
work by steam and interfere with the hon
est toll of the workers by the Seine.

In the fresh March weather, she made
another triumphal entry at the masked
ball of the Opera by night.
This year there mas been break in the
good old traditions. The city council has
not voted enough money. the laundries
have rebelled and sulked-and now 1t is
too late The queen Of queens has been
chosen from the market women, who also
parade IN great decorated cars, and the
tickle students have gone to present her
with the diamond ring OF their mutual alli-
ance. A few of the larndries parade indie
pendently, for it would be pity that their
chariots with the immense wreaths of
paper flowers and silk streamers should lie
idle But the display of beauty, lavish
ample, full of the rude health and Joy
of life of young women who spend their
Gays in healthy open-air labor, has been
lost to this years visitor to Paris. His
remembrances will only be of shirts COM
Ing from the wash with necks, bAsoms

Eau de JaveI.
1t is not the washerwomen queens who
have wrought the havoc. No, 1t is the dia-
bolical Eau de Javel, which the high-class
laundries persist in using. The rank and
file of washerwon en-those who furnish
the beauties-are content with Seine water
down by the river bank: and it is the rank
ard file of Parisans not the "elegants"
who are supposed snobbishly to have their
washing done in London like Paul Bour-

Statement of n Member of the PFesi-
dents Cabinet.
The meeting of the cabinet last evening
lasted until o'clock. Consideration was
given to the forthcoming message of the
President The opinion Of each member
was asked as to what should be the atti-
tude of the President. This was given. and
the President has taken these opinions I'M
der consideration. At the conclusion Of the
reeting every word dropped by members
Of the official family Indicated that war
was expected.
sAfter dinner the President received q
number of visitors. They left before 10
o'clock, and the President then retired to
get a rest. He went to bed after o'clock
Thursday night, and is understood to have
been up by daylight giving consideration
to the Spanish response. He generally re-
tires between IL and II o'clock. A member
Of the cabinet 1astnight spoke Of the sit
uation as follows: ~.

Sacred Concert at Foundry.

Ono of the especial features Of the Ep-
worth League services at Foundry Metho-
dist Episcopal Church during the winter
has been the introduction of some fine solo
singing into the Sunday evening devotional
meetings. During the fall and winter
number of sacred songs have been rem
dered by different well-known singers OF
the city. and on two or three occasions
almost the entire evening has been de-
voted to music.
It is the intention Of the precenfor OF
the league, Mr. William K. Cohen, to have
the music rendered on these occasions 30
fine that every one will wish to hear K;
and the program for tomorrow evening Is
worthy Of especial mention The soloists
for that evening are: Mrs. Kitty Thompson
Berry, soprano; Mrs. DR.. d. o. Leech. con-
II alto; Mr. l. o. Ball, tenor, and Mr.. Wal
ter Humphrey, bass. These artists are
all too well known to the musical and gen.
eral public Of Washington to need more
than a mention Of their names. The league
services at the Foundry Church, corner
l4th ard g streets. for tomorrow evening
will commence promptly at ESQ., instead OF
pm, in order that Mrs. Berry, Mrs.
LeecE and Mr.. Humphrey may reach the
churches where they sing in time for their
regular evening services.

most two score bodies of victims of the
-Shawneetown food have been recovered
and hundreds of homeless people are de-
pendent upon charity for food and shell
ter. The death list is likely to be largely
increased definite Information
from the negro quarter, which suffered
most, IS secured. The foo burst upon
these people without warning and owing
to the weak construction Of their shan
ties they toppled over in the rush of
water, leaving their inmates no means
of escaping. Hundreds OF people who
lived farther from the river front sought
safety on roofs and in upper stories, or
mad a retreat to the hills at the west.
These are being removed as rapidly as
possible to places where they can be
given proper care. No effort has yet been
made to search for bodies, the attention
of the relief parties being directed al
most entirely to providing supplies and
making the homeless as comfortable as
possible. The relief work Is well or
gained n the tents, blankets and food
sent by the governor today will be
promptly distributed. Those Who escaped
lost everything and their homes are in
ruins.
