be a close observer of human nature
to determine with accuracy whether a
customer is a scissors grinder or a

How the Trust Got Its Name.

The name trust, which is popularity
applied to all these large aggregations
of capital, was somewhot accidental in
its origin. The managers of every
consolidated enterprise, whether
based on a contract, a trust agree
ment, or an actual consolidation, are
exercising powers to benefit or injure
the public which are analogous to
those of a trustee. 1t has been said
tnat all-property is, in its wider sense,
a trust in behalf of The consumer. But
where competition is active, the pow
er of using your business methods to
impose high prices is so far limited
that the chance for abuse of this trust
is greatly lessened. 1t is only in the
case of large combinations. with their
discretionary power for good or evil,
that the character of the trust reposed
by society in the directors of its enter
prise makes itself really and truly left.
With these trusts, as with every other
trust that deserves the name, it is
hard to provide legislative machinery
which will absolutely secure its full
fllment The ability to handle any
trust is the result of a long process
Of legal and moral education. We can
not make a law which shall allow the
right exercise of a discretionary power
and prohibit its wrong exercise. But
it is possible to modify the existing
law in a great many directions, which
will hasten instead of retard the edu-
cational process. Thus far most of
our statutory regulations have been in
the wrong direction. We have at
tempted to prohibit the inevitable, and
have simply favored the use of under
handed and short-sighted methods of
doing things which must be done open
ly if they are to be well done-Novem-

VERY DIFFICULT
Says General Lee, to Predict the
Future of Cuba,

New York, Nov. 9.-"The Future Of
Cuba" is paper Jy Major General
Fitzhugh Lee, which will appear in
The Independent tomorrow as follows:
when will the United States evacuate
Cuba? That is question | am very
frequently asked and | suppose it is
natural for people to suppose that, from
my peculiar facilities for observation
in the island,I might have some know
ledge, or at least some opinion about
IT,
Nevertheless. have no such know
ledge and no such opinion. With the
very best Of will on the part of our
government desire to keep the
pledges and leave tine inhabitants of
Cuba to enjoy their independence in
their own way, there are many diff
cultles in the way of withdrawal, and
whether or not we have in the last six
months made progress toward the end
am unable TO say
"Yet | can say that during the last
six months crime mas decreased and
peace and prosperity are 3prcadlng or
reviving in a great measure. This,
however, seems attributable to the
presence of the United States troops,
whom the chief of property holders
and conservative business men insist
must stay. The Cubans themselves
seem to be very much divided in opin-
ion as TO wnat ought to be done. Some
want an Independent republic imme-
diately Others insist that Cuba shall
be annexed to the United States, ani
great numbers of others seem to have
no positive opinions concerning the
pat. their country should pursue.
There is, of course, on the part of a
majority a lack of understanding of
the difficulties of self-government.
"Al present the census is being talk
en- in Cuba, and for the first time we
shall have an accurate and reliable
enumeration. When that has been
finished the experiment of free govern
ment by Cubans for Cubans will, l be-
lieve, be tried. That is a matter for our
government to decide and | have OBJ
tanned no information of its intention
in the matter.
IF it is found that the Cubans can
organize and maintain a government
in their island mat will protect life
and property, undoubtedly we shall
withdraw and allow them to go their
way along the path of independence,
accompanied by nothing more embar-
RAISING than our very best wishes
"Lut at present, all is tentative, all
attempts at government are merely
experimental and, not being a prophet,
am unable to say what the future
holds for the pearl of Che Antilles. ]
sincerely hope that it is happiness and
prosperity in their greatest abundance

Penitentiary Officials to Re
sign.

Warden Coffin stated yesterday to
inquirers that Guard McAvOy,who was
relieved the day before, had been GUST
ed in accordance with rules and regu-
lations of the prison that subordinatas
must show proper respect and esteem
for their superiors. The warden claims
that McAvoy spoke i'll of him in the
recent political campaign, in which he
said the warden, holding a position
under the Republican administration,
voted against the Republican nominee
in favor of John R. Mclean.
Warden denies that the sense of
honor which prompted him to vote
for Mclean against Nash Will inspire
him to resign his position in view of
the expression of the ballots. He says
he will hold on until the 1st of Jan
uary, when he will probably resign
with the Inauguration of Governor
Nash.
1t IS understood on good authority
that in addition to the Warden, Clerk
Koehne, Of the penitentiary, will also
resign on the first of the year. All
members Of the board Of managers
save one, 1t is said, will also resign
simultaneously with the induction of
Judge Nash into onice.-Ohio State

The Spectacular Exhibition Of
Falling Stars Next Week.

Prof. J. X. Rees told about the fall
ing stars and meteorc display expect
ed next week in an illustrated lecture
last night before the New York Aca
denny of Science, at 12 West Thirty
| first street.
The stereopticon illustrations were
made from drawings of famous astron-
omers, which were based upon obser-
vations from time to time since 1926.
ut is calculated" said Prof. Rees,
"that the meteoric exhibition next
week will be the greatest since 1888,
and will far outshine that of 1866.
About every 33 years the same astron-
omical phenomena are observable, and
it will he strange if New Ycrkers do
not have the spectacle vouchsafed to
them some night next week.
at may be, however, that here the
meteors will fall in the day time, and
in that event, there will be little to
see. The German astronomers have
sent an expedition to India especially
to observe the forthcoming display,
showing that they calculate that Eu
rope and the United States will this
year be deprived of a noctural fall of
stars.
Still" said the lecturer in a consol-
atory way, "lf che fall occurs here in
the day ume, we will see fairly good
exhibition next year"
t-e went on to demonstrate that in
about every 1874 years the earth in its
revolutions around ,-le sun ran into
swarms of meteors. These are parti-
cles of comets that have disintegrated
by repeated explosions. In 1888 and in
1866 some of the meteors, or falling
stars" were as brighi as the full moon,
and if the conditions next week are
favorable, equally brilliant heavenly
displays may be visible.
The observer, the professor suggest
ed, should look up in the northeast at
midnight Tuesday and Wednesday of
next week. Should the heavens fur
nish no unusual spectacle then, about
O'CLOCK on the morning of November
16 ought to repay their vigils. Vari-
colored meteors are promised to shoot
through space and an aerial panoroma
such as may not be visible for at least
another 33 years is confidently expect
ed
In Boston, in 1888, 100000 falling
stars were computed to have been Wis
ible in the eight hours duration of
the phenomenon. About the same
number were seen in the same time in
Europe in 1866. Sometimes the drop
ping stars explode, ricochetting in ec-
centric lines and making a fiery prism
of the heavens. These meteors travel
at .-e rate of from =, to A miles a sec
ond and each is visible for only a sec
ond or two, and often for only a frac-
ton OF a second. When they get
within the earth's atmosphere, the heat
becomes so great that they are con-

failing star in these showers, declared
the professor, had ever reached the
earth's surface.
DR.. Elkin, professor of astronomy at
Yale, has made elaborate preparations
to photograph the expected phenomena
AT Harvard too, and at most of the
other universities extensive prepara-
tions have been made. The Federal
has placed the astrono-
mical apparatus at West Point at the
service of Columbia University, and
many photographers in New York
have offered their cameras TO the uni
versity's observers.-New York Trb-

Editor Of the johannesburg
Jewish Gazette on the War.

If the Beers and English are left to
figh- out alone in South Africa, and
the Beers provisions hold out,I believe
that the Beers will win the fight" said
Gustav Schlacht. Mr.. Schlacht has
just come to this country from JONAH
nesburg. He was the publisher of the
African Jewish Gazette in Johannes
burg, and arrived here on Sunday on
the st. Paul, having left johannesburg
on September %.
You have no idea how we'll prepar-
ed the Beers were for this war, he
said "They have been getting ready
for it ever since the Jameson raid.
They have been importing arms and
ammunition steadily for the last two
years, and l know tnat, among other
things, they have received 100000 ri
aes from Germany. Every hill, noun
tain, pass and canyon in the Boer
country is fortified with well-mounted
artillery, and they have at least 300
cannons of all sizes including Maxim
guns and rapid fire guns of all sorts.
Il should say that the Beers army
contains at least 10000 men. Every
Boer who is able to bear arms is call
ed in the army. When left Johan-
nesburg the recruiting stations were
on every corner, and they were all do
ing a good business. The whole ma
tion is imbued with the same spirit of
deep and bitter hatred Of England and
they will die sooner than surrender.
Nor have they been short sighted in
the matter of provisions. The neces-
stiles have been pouring into the

Significance Of the Elections.

S1SlllIlCdIlCS OF the ElSCl1OflS,
The results of the elections in the
various states, although largely affect
ed in some instances by local issues,
still possesses much national slgni-
cance.
In Ohio the fight was made upon
national issues. The magnificent Re-
publican victory in this state, there
fore indorsing the Republican policies,
makes certain the denomination and
reelection of President Mckinley.
The sweeping Republican victory in
Massachusetts is a crushing blow to
the so-called "anti-lmperialists." The
headquarters of the Atkinsonites are
located in the city of Boston and the
Bay state has been generally regarded
as the hotbed of the anti-eXpansionists
Their efforts were concentrated to re-
elect Senator Herbert C. Parsons, of
Greenfield, who was refused a renom-
ination by the Republicans because
of his rabld opposition to the admins
tratlons policy in the Philippines. Mr..
Parsons ran as an independent candi-
date and the Atkinsonites focked out
from Boston to assist him, but he was
defeated.
The defeat of Goebel the regular
Democratic candidate for governor in
Kentucky by Taylor the Republican
candidate, is a stinging rebuke to
Democratic ring politics and a death
blow to Goebers famous election law
which aimed to place the entire cleo
tion machinery of the state in the
hands of the Democrats.
Goebels defeat, coupled with that of
Mclean in Ohio, is a deathblow to the
conspiracy among certain Democratic
leaders to defeat William Jennings
Bryan for denomination in 1900. Nc
Lean and Goebel had Joined hands,
and although each sought the assist
ance of the professional free silver
candidate for the presidency in their
respective campaigns, under a pretense
of friendship, they secretly hoped to
use the prestige they expected to gain
in the elections, to shelve Bryan.
The defeat of the plotters will render
i, impossible for them now to control
the delegations from their respective
states in the Democratic national con-
vention for any candidate in opposi-
tion to the free silver apostle.
The victory of the fusionists on the
other hand, in Nebraska, strengthens
'-e hands of Bryan against the plot
ters and presages his denomination. 1t
does not strengthen him in any way.
howeVer,as candidate before the peo-
pie of the country, and if nominated
he is just as certain to be defeated as
in 1896 The result in Ohio shows con-
clusively that Bryan and his free sill
yer heresies have no abiding place in
this state, except among the blind par
tisan followers.
The Democrats may be expected to
seek consolation in a few scattering
'lCIOlISS' IHe result OF local issues.
They are prone to catch at straws. But
there is nothing in the general result
to sustain Bryans claim that the issues
upon which ne was defeated three
years ago are stronger with the people
today than then. In fact, they show
quite the reverse
The people are satisfied with the
prosperity that has followed Republl-
can policies in national affairs, and
they will vote next year for a contin-
nance of the happy conditions which
have been brought about by the Re
publican party.-Ohio Stale LonrnaI

II the busiest men and women we're
the greatest busters plenary absolu-
tlCn might be granted them, but as a
matter Of fact bustlers are not the peo-
pie who get through an enormous
amount of work, and live at a high
pleasure; when bustlers are busy it is
generally either about other peoples
business or else about self-lmposed
highly unnecessary work. The bustl-

But the bustling womanl No sop

not time, we almost wish she did for
she is 10000 worse than the bustling
man. Her hustle is boundless; it Is
perpetual it is the only thing about
her that has no limitations; there is
no escape from it,
Apparently, there is always an ex-
press train waltlng somewhere for her,
which her life is spent in endeavoring
to catch; she cant, to save her soul,
enter q room quietly like other people
with ten times as much work to do;
She always rushes in, generally knock
ing down some piece of furniture on
her way; she never, by any chance, has
time to shut door; she frequently
breakfasts and lunches in her hat or
bonnet; she is always in a hurry yet
she is never in time for anything, but
Is either too soon or too late.
She is always busy, yet if asked at
the end of the day what she has done,
she would find it very difficult to say
what she really had accomplished. She
never sits down for more than five
minutes at meals; no sooner has she
seemingly seated herself to read or
write or work than she jumps and
finds some other form of employment.
