A New Monster Trust

Under the very liberal laws of
New Jersey trust has recently
been incorporated which, in its
huge ramifcations, threatens to
absorb many smaller trusts, thus
exemplifying the old adage that
the big fish eat the little fish. The
Federal Steel company under
which name this concern has been
incorporated with capitol of
S2oo,oo0,Oo0, does not propose to
limit its operations to one line of
business, but to branch out after
the fashion of department store
and embrace everything that may
be of use for it. 1t is said that in
course of time the new trust will.
among other things, control the
entire anthracite coal trade and
output of the country. That such
a concern with untold millions at
its disposal could press all opposi-
ton to the wall there can be no
doubt. The different trusts have
been working on this very line,
absorbing everything in their way,
and there now being nothing left
worth absorbing in the line of in.
dividual or ordinary corporate en-
terprise, they have begun to alb
sorb each other.
1t is related of Napoleon that
when informed that all Europe
Was going to ally itself against
him, he remarked that would give
him chance long desired to
annihilate all Europe with one
stroke. So may the combination
turn out fortunately for the peo-
pie, after absorbing all other trusts
the people will have to deal only
with one concern instead of an
Initiating several hundred. Den

A curious incident occurred the
other Sunday at ST. Georges chapel,
Windsor castle. The choir boys, in ar
cordance with an ancient custom,
claim five shillings from any military
man wearing his spurs during Divine
service. An officer who had Innocent
ly come to church in his spurs was no.
ticed by some of the choristers, who,
much, TO his surprise, demanded the
fine as he was about to quit the chapel.

THE RUSSIAN GRAIN GROWER.
He Ia Subjected to Constant Loss
Through the Oppression of
Authorities.

Owing to imperfect or expensive
transportation the peasant is not in the
best position to obtain the full benefits
of markets. THE harvest ended, each
man brings his grain to market. Hop
ing to realize more remunerative
price by carrying his produce to CEN
trail or larger market, he makes appli-
cation to travel. Here the factor steps
in. In conjunction OF in collision with
the local police, obstacles are thrown in
his way week after week. Ten, twenty
or one hundred are in the. same pre-
dicament. Finally, with the local sta
ton or market glutted with the yield
of county, the factor steps in and
agrees to take all the grain in sight for
about 25 per cent. below its market
value. They have no choice, and thus
crop grown at a cost of % per cent
interest (paid to the factor for ad-
vances) frequently pays 25 per cent ad-
ditional after it's maturity" Not only
1oes such system Of handling grain
cause loss to the farmer through low
prices, but even more through the &C.
tual destruction of Grain. 1t is esti-
mated that millions of bushels of grain
are lost annually on account of the
failure of railways to afford transporta-
tion facilities or shelter for grain
brought to them for transportation

a Fortune to Pale xlondike Wealth

A Fortune to Pale Klondike Wealth.
Fortunes have been made in devices
to keep children's shoes from wearing
out" said the father of a family, "but
every parent knows that there are
greater fortunes yet TO be made in that
field. When one considers the number
of children that must be shod and the
money that would accrue from even o
small royalty on every pair of shoes
worn by them, it will be seen what pos.
sibilities there are here for fortune,
besides which the wealth of the Klon-
dixie would be but small and insignifi-
cant bunch of tinsel. To make for
tune beyond dreams it isn't necessary
to be able to transmute lead into gold,
but only to provide an indestructible
shoe for children."-N. Y. Sun.
