THE STEEL COMBINE.
Not Designed to Bring About
Higher Prices.

CLEVELAND, Sept. 1.-The Iron
Trade Review" this week, commenting
On the big steel consolidation, says:
1t is a product of events in the iron
and steel world rather than an effort
to control events 1t is part of the
evolution in the iron industry, rather
than an attempt to bring about rev.
olution. If it has an appearance OF hx-
Ing for aggression, it is only on the the
ory that a war status is the surest
means of preserving peace. When the
Carnegie Steel Company became
miner of ore on a large scale ana ar
ranged with the Rockefeller interests
for carrying its ore at low hgure,
fluctuating only within narrow limits,
the cry of monopoly went up, but no
move ever made in the history OF iron
and steel manufacture was more plain
ly the product of an intensely COM
petitive regime. The Federal Steel
Company is one of the later results of
the entrance OF the Carnegie Steel Com
rany upon the Mesaba and Gogebic
ranges. An immediate result was that
ore contracts at Chicago were written
with the price based on the mining cost
of the Pittsburg company, and it was
only a step from such arrangement
to an organic union of the Illinois Steel
Company and the company from which,
because of common stockholders, 1t
made its largest purchases of ore.
The prominence of Standard Oil
stockholders in the new deal has been
construed in some quarters as signifl-
cant of close future relations between
the two dominant mining and transpor-
. Anraat IN
ranges. And it has been only a step
from this inference to the conclusion
that the Standard Oil interest in the
Lake Superior consolidated mines and
the Bessemer Steamship Company
might facilitate an understanding be-
tween the important Pittsburg custom
er of the two latter companies and the
new company. There is good reason to
doubt the correctness of any such sur
mise The indications are that the
competition between the two leading
interests of the Mesaba range will be
just as intense as it has ever been.
The plans of the Federal Steel Com
pany allow for the addition of interests,
whose inclusion would be mutually ad-
vantageous. Should there be no out
come of the tentative effort toward fur
ther absorption, it is to be expected that
outside moves will be made, bringing
other stsel works and ore producers into
closer relations. The coming year bids
fair to see some interesting events of
this nature.

PHILIPPINE REVENUES.
The Treasury Department Preparing q
Schedule OF Tariff Rates.

The Treasury Department Preparing a
Schedule Of Tariff Rates.
Washington, May 23.-In anticipa-
ton of the early occupation of the
Philippine islands by the military and
naval forces of the United States, the
Treasury Department has already be-
gun the formulation of regulations and
scheme of customs tariff which will
be collected by the military authori-
ties and turned into the treasury of
the United States as military con-
tribution." That the President has
authorized to collect the Philippine
revenues under existing conditions is
not matter of doubt. 1t was several
times done during the last war with
Mexico and the authority of the gov
eminent in the premises was sustained
by decisions of the United States SUI
preme Court The court in a case
which grew out of the capture and
occupation of San Francisco and all
the upper part of the State of Cali
fornia by the United States troops, held
that the President, under the constitu-
ton, as the commander in chief of the
army and navy had the right to eXer
else the belligerent right of con-
queror and to impose duties on imports
as military contribution for the sup
port of the army. This was the view
held by the court in another case where
it was also decided that the capture of
Tampico, Mexico, by the United States
forces though sufficient to cause it to
be regarded by other nations as part
of our territory, did not make it in
fact part of the United States under
our constitution and laws.
1T remained" said the court, "a for
eign country within the revenue laws
of the United States"
The tariff rates now being prepared
by the. Treasury Department will
closely follow the Spanish customs
laws in force in the Philippines. Just
what revenue they produced is not
known, but the assumption is that in
asmuch as the home government real
lied from them last year approximate
iy 100000, the actual amount col
lected was $18,000,000.
The government will assume control
of the revenues as soon as the princi-
pal seaports are in our possession, and
will continue to control them at least
until Congress takes specific action in
the case or until peace has been de-
clared between the two countries.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Oleomargarina Laws That Do Not
Pass an Examination in the Su.
preme Court.

Washington, D. c., May 23.-The
United States Supreme Court to-day de-
cided convictions under the oleomargar-
inc laws of Pennsylvania and New
Hampshire to be invalid, thus holding
the laws unconstitutional.
Justice Peckham announced the opin-
ion of the court in the cases. There
were three of the cases from the State
of Pennsylvania and one from New
Hampshire In Pennsylvania George
Shallen, George E. Paul and George
Otis Paul were prosecuted in the State
courts on the charge of violating the
State law prohibiting the Introduction
Of oleomargarine into the State. The
trial court held the law to be invalid
under the federal constitution on the
ground that it infringed the provision in
regard to interstate commerce. The
State supreme court reversed the de-
cision, holding the law to be consti-
tutional.
The opinion rendered by Justice
Peckham reverses the State supreme
court and sustains the trial court, hold
ing the convictions to be invalid under
the law because the law is in contraven-
ton of the federal constitution.
Justices Harlan and Gray dissented
in the case, as they did in the New
Hampshire case.
In this latter case the same question
was involved, the law of this State being
practically the same as that of Penn
sylvania. In the New Hampshire case
the law provides that when the oleomar-
garine is colored pink there shall be no
prohibition. Justice Peckham said this
was mere evasion and reversed the de-
cision of the State supreme court, which
had been in support of the law. In this
case there was but one prosecution and
this was directed against Clarence g.
Collins.

sion the judicial committee reported
on several cases, among which was one
of Warsawiac against the Presbytery
of New York. 1t was dismissed. The
regular order Of the session was the
report of the board of education.
The report of the standing COM
mittee on education was presented by
DR.. Thomas D. Wallace, of Chicago
mo action" was advised upon the
overture asking that aid be granted
only to students in theological semin-
aries, and also upon the requirement
of a pledge of missionary service from
students aided by the board. The
chief interest of the afternoon centered
in the speech of Dr. Richard Holmes,
of Pittsburg, upon the missionary pub
lication of the church. or these there
have been two, the Church at Home
and Abroad and the Assembly Herald.
One was described as high and the
other as low class periodical. me
missionary boards have never been
entirely satisfied with either, he de-
clared. One was too dear, and botn
were too slow. The speaker advocated
a single headed management with edl-
torial and publication Offices in New
York, where the bulk Of the mission
ary interests of the church are
located.
1t was noticed that this proposal
called out applause from New York's
delegation, while Pennsylvania was
quite silent. DR.. Holmes spoke for an
hour and the matter went over to the
second order for Tuesday afternoon.
A resolution. was introduced by Rev.
Horatio ]. Olmstead, of Galveston, pro-
viding for an uninstructed committee of
five to confer with a like committee
from the Southern Presbyterian church
looking to union of the two denomina-
lions. 1t was promptly referred to the
committee of bills and overtures, where
similar orders were already under an
sideration.
A digest and report was presented by
W. K. Spencer, of Adrian, Mich, and
w. H. Sherman, Of the committee.
Afterward the assembly was addressed
by DR.. Edward P. Cowan, secretary of
the Board, and by several colored COM
miSSionerS.

Yesterdays Proceedings Of the General As
sembiy at Winona Lake.
Winona Lake, Ind, May 23.-The
proceedings of the Presbyterian gen
eral assembly to-day were of routine
character The topics discussed were
the reports of the board Of missions
for freemen, the committee on Sab
bath observance, the board of educa-
ton, and the committee on authorized
missionary periodicals. AS yet no
sign of the Princeton Inn or the Nc
ton may be proposed in either is still
in doubt, though speculation is rife. In
the latter case individuals are laboring
to secure instructions to the New York
presbytery to proceed to judicial in
vestigation of the alleged heresies of
Union Seminary's professor of his
tory. This case may come at any time
on the report from the committee on
bills and overtures, but the Princeton
Inn case will not come up till the
end Of the week with the temporary
report.
An interesting feature at the close of
the morning session was the presenta-
ton to the moderator of a gavel made
of wood from the Rehoboth church,
Maryland, the Westminster of Amer
lea.

ance presented its attendant report,

nounced Sunday newspapers and called
for the closing of the Omaha exposi-
