A Tax for the Trusts.

The interest ofthe session in the
Senate last Wednesday centered
in the action taken upon the
amendment OF Senator German, of
Maryland, levying a tax Of one
quarter OF one per cent. upon the
gross receipts of all corporations
doing a business exceeding $780,
900 a year. By direct vote upon
it the amendment was rejected az
to "a.
Senator Pettigrew offered the
German amendment with the
clause containing the Saso, 900 ex-
emption stricken out. but it was
defeated by a vote OF IS to 81.
Senator White. OF California,
then proposed the German amend
ment so modified that it levies a
tax Of one-quarter OF one per cent.
upon all corporations Engaged in
the refining OF sugar or petroleum.
The California Senator explained
that he desired to see a tax levied
on the American Sugar Trust and
the Standard Oil Company. The
amendment prevailed by a vote o.

An agree ment has been entered into
tbs rumored between Austria Hungary

continuous contract, divided the Balkan
States into two spheres OF influence, IN
which each is to maintain tranquility
and preserve the status quo.

The Balance Sheet OF Monopoly

The Balance Sheet Of Monopoly
Summing up his wheat deal,
which is now approaching com.
pletion, "Joe" Letter says: "Wher
all the May is closed up / shall
have handled approximately 4o,.
900, 900 bushels" The snecula.
tors banker estimates the profit
of the deal" at $1,000, 900.
There is no more wheat in the
world than there would have been
had Letter been so poor as to have
to wait IN line at midnight to get
his loaf from a charitable baker.
His operations have not added a
bushel of wheat or dollar to the
worlds stock of wealth. He has
not made money-he has taken it.
HIS $1,000. 900 acquired in one
year is not the fruit OF productive
industry, but the spoiIs Of high
wayman.
That wheat would have gone up
during the winter and spring may
be admitted. Conditions favored
higher prices than had prevailed.
But it mounted day bv day until
bakers reduced the size OF their
loaves or raised the price Of bread,
women and children went hungry,
order was dethroned in Italy by
tamished populace and a young
man in Chicago pocketed 81, ,ooo,-
900 profits. That was not a rising
market caused by natural condi-
tions. That was an extortionate
market controlled by a monoDo-
list.
How artificial was the price
forced by Letter is shown by the
fact, chronicled by sympathetic
historian OF the deal, that at one
time "he was compelled to buy
1000, 900 bushels in three days"
Compelled by vhat7 By fear that
the natural law OF supply and de-
mand, it left to operate untram-
melled, would break down the ex-
tortionate price he was maintaining
and enable the people to get bread
stuffs without paying the tribute
he exacted. And Tuesday
Letters brokers sold Nav wheat
at SI.4s, though SATURDAY. they
demanded and secured SITS. In
brief, they put a purely arbitrary
price on what they had to sell.
That they designed to grant a
lower price was purely work OF
MISUNDERSTANDING up to some
new spoliation. We should be-
ware of the Letters bearing gif S.
The balance sheet OF this young
monopolist in yet to be struck.
He credits himself with $1,000, 900
and with having distributed some
SIoo, 900, 900 among the farmers
for like Dick Turpin, Letter likes
to brag OF his benevolent disposal
of his plunderlngs. But charged
against him are poverty made
harder, famine, riot and death.
Some day monopolists Of the
stamp will find the balance, de.
spite their apparent profits, is on
the wrong side of the ledger.

The agreement between Russia and
Austria Hungary, arrived at on the oc-
casion OF the Emperor Francis Joseph's
Visit to St Petersburg IN April, 1907, is
not political agreement in The gener-
ally accepted sense OF the expression,
but a state Treaty." signed by the
Russian and Austrian Emperors, and
countersigned by the Ministers Of For
eign Affairs Count Muravieff and Count
GoluchowskD The treaty came into
force on May I, 1897, and remains in force
till May 1, 1902 1t is to remain in force
for three years longer, and so on, by
further terms Of three years, unless one
OF the parties denounce il six months
before the expiry oi'that term Its main
purpose is the maintenance OF peace,
tranquility, and the territorial status qNo
in the Balkan Peninsula. To gain this
end Russia and Austria-Hungary divide
the Balkan Peninsula into two spheres
OF interest, each of which contains an
inner and wider sphere. To Austria
Hungary's inner sphere belongs Servia,
to the wider Macedonia from SaIonica
inclusive northwards almost in straight
line to Kranja, Albania, except some
districts bounded on the southeast bv
Montenegro. Bulgaria belongs to Rus
sia's inner sphere, Her wider sphere
comprises that part of European Turkey
east of Austria Hungary's sphere. The
two States bind themselves to take care
that no warike complications occur IN
their spheres, and that no agitations
affecting Turkey. and thus threatening
peace, shall emanate from Servia or
Bulgaria. To gain this end each OF the
two States will intervene IN its own
sphere with or without previous agree.
ment. Should friendly Intervention
prove futile, and Servia or Bulgaria wish
to bring on war, the State to whose
sphere the peace breaker belongs will
be entitled to intervene in arms. The
whole treaty was communicated to

purport, with the exception of the pas.

TICKETS BOUGHT OF sCALPERs.
Judge LumpINin UphOIds Conductors
in COnnscating Them.

From the Atlanta (Ga) Constitution.
A suit involving the validity of a scalp
ers ticket was heard Tuesday by Judge
Lumpkin, and the decision will be of in
terest to the scalpers, the railroads and
the travelling public as well.
Last year B. w Bridges purchased an
unused coupon ticket from a scalper in
Atlanta. The ticket was originally sold
from New Orleans to Jacksonville, and
was signed by L. Loeb, the original pur-
chaser. Only a portion of the ticket was
used, Bridges becoming the purchaser of
that portion unused, reading to Jackson
vile from Atlanta
When he presented the coupon to Con-
ductor Sears of the Southern the coupon
was taken uD and Bridges was informed
that he would either pay fare or get off.
The conductor retained the possession of
the ticket, and as soon as Bridges return
ed to Atlanta he took out a possessory
warrant against Conductor Sears, claim
ing that if the ticket would not be ac-
cepted for passage the conductor had no
authority TO take possession of it, but
should have returned It,
When the case was tried in justice court
1t was held that the ticket was the prop
erty of the holder at the time it was pre-
sented Tor passage, and that the conduc-
tor nor any agent of the railroad had the
authority to take possession of the ticket
The case went before Judge Lumpkin
| on certiorari, and he held that the con-
| ductor did right in Selling the coupon and
having it cancelled as provided on the
| face of the ticket. The contract de-
| clares that the ticket was good for pass
age only when presented by the original
| purchaser and if presented by any one
else that the conductor would take pos
session, cancel it and demand full fare.
| The rule among the ticket brokers, it is
| said is that whenever any one attemnl-
| ing to ride on a scalper's ticket is detected
and forced TO pay fare or leave the train,
| the broker who sold the ticket will re-
! fund the money paid for the ticket when
the coupon is returned. Judge Lumpkin's
decision throws quite a barrier in the way
| of the broker, and. it is said. will mean
| quite victory for the railroads.
