Sugar Trust To Be Tackled by At.
tOrney-GeneraI Monnett.

Coumbus O., June 7.-Attorney Gen
eral Monnett has served notice upon
the American Sugar Trust that 1t is a
trust as defined by Ohio laws, and as
such is debarred from doing business
in the state. If the trust does not
cease to do business in Ohio action will
be begun at the expiration of 60 days
for the collection of $50 per day penal
ty, inflicted by the statutes for refusal
to obey the orders of the state officials.
The action is in line with the fight be-
gun upon the Sugar trust some weeks
ago, when General Monnett brought
suit to collect $56, 900 alleged to be due
under the provisions of Section 148, r.
s. o. This statute provides that for
eign corporations using part or all of
its capital in this state must receive
permi.Gion to operate from the Secre-
tary of State under penalty of $1,000
fine and $1,000 additional for each
month in which the law is disregarded.
General Monnebt holds tnat the trust
is open 10 this penalty, as through
.t3 factorage system II uses a portion
of its capital in Ohio by allowing mer-
Giants to sell sugar on commission.

This Is the Iron AGE,

Cotton has been king, corn was king,
but iron is king. The new President OF
the Iron and Steel Institute of Eng
land in bidding farewell to the clos
fng century, alluded to the fact that
American now exported 1000, 900 tons
of steel annually whereas 20 years ago
she exported none. He agreed with
Lockyer, that the atmosphere and the
stars proved that terrestrial iron was
the most complex form OF matter, and
he alluded to the wonderful achieve
ments in the iron industry which
marked the close Of this century as the
grandest in respect OF industry in the
worlds history, a century closely con-
nected with the iron and golden age.
lnis development enabled us now to
produce steel plates two inches thick
and 300 feet area, and girders OF such
enormous size that they justified Sir
Benjamin Bakers belief in the posi-
y Of building a bridge to connect
England and France by half-mile
spans. There ship plates, he added,
which buckled up in collision, yet re-
manned water tight, and we were now
making manganese steel and nickle
steel of such fine fiDre hat some of it
would not expand when heated, and
others would expand where expansion
was necessary. The President paid a
tribute to Holley, who developed the
Bessemer steel process at Troy, N. Y,
in 1865, and to Abram s. Hewitt, New
\ lork, who installed the first Bessemer
converter. He credited Holley and
Hewitt with being the founders of an
industry that had produced thus far
61,OOO,O 900 tons of Bessemer steel in
America. Verify, this is the age of
iron, and America the home of its king

Bishop Hurst's Trouble.

Social and church circles are consid-
erably agitated over the announcement
that Bishop John F. Hurst and Mrs.
Hurst are to separate. While 1t had
been known for some time among their
intjmates that the marriage had prov
en- disappointment, the general pub
lie did not know it, Mrs. Hurst is a
handsome young woman, hut little
more than half the age of the Bishop,
who is Sc years old. He is a man
quiet in demeanor and given to the so
ciety of learned professors and stu
dents OF science and Biblical lore. He

quently away from home, and it is
claimed that these prolonged absences
and the quiet sedate society into which
MRS. HursC has been thrown since her
marriage have not been in accord with
her temperament and social aspira-
tions She has two little daughters, to
whom she is greatly devoted.
Mrs Hurst was Miss Root and the
daughter of wealthy lady, who held
the Bishop in the highest esteem and
was especially interested in his labors
in founding the American University.
In her will she bequeathed 100000 to
the endowment fund of the institution
and also $4,000 to tho Bishop
himself.
Bishop Hurst through his connec-
tion with the Universityds well known
throughout the country and while his
administration OF affairs has been
severely criticized by a certain faction
OF the Methodist church, he has still a
powerful backing. The Bishop today

residing In Paris for some Uime, the
magnificent home in this cHy, pur-

Ten New Cardinals.

New York, June AIN private let
ter just received in this city from
New York Roman Catholic priest now
in Rome, the writer thus speaks Of the
present condition of the Pope: II
was fortunate the o-her day to have
an audience with the holy father. Like
all others who have seen the Pope
lately, l could not fail to remark his
pallor and the alertness of his mind.
He is man with a great reserve fund
of will power, and no one at present
talks much about the next Pope"
OF the prospective selection of Car
dinals the writer says: THE death of
Cardinal Krementz has brought the
number OF vacancies in the sacred COL
lege to sixteen, and 1t is asserted that
about ten new Cardinals will be Gre
ated in the next consistory. Mgr.
Richehng, Archbishop OF Turin; Mgr.
Francisco Nava, Archbishop of Can
tania, at Madrid and Father Joseph
Calasantius da LieYaneras, of the
Capuchin Fathers, have already re-
ceived notice officially from the Vati-
can of their approaching elevation to
the rank OF Cardinal, Father Calas-
antius, who will be known as Cardin-
al Joseph Wives, is consultor of the &C.
elesiastical congregation of the holy
Office, and is apostolic examiner for
clergy OF Rome and definite general of
his order. He is only As years old,
and will be the youngest Cardinal.

tuberculosis.


The appeal OF President Matthews,
Of the American Medical association
for general crusade against tuber-
culosis will greatly lylanterest the public
and should induce the association to
take the initiative in asking the gov
ernment for aid in stamping out a d.
sease that removes annually by death
one-seventh OF the worlds population.
1t is especially fitting that DR.. Mat
thews should urge such a measure up
on the association at this time when
the eyes of science have so lately been
turned toward the international anti
tuberculosis congress at Berlin.
Though science has done much to-
ward discovering the nature and con-
dltions under which the tuberculosis
germ thrives, it has not yet given to
the world a specific. Individual effort
has made wonderful progress toward
checking the ravages of consumption,
and the united work of the medical
profession, assisted by the government
ought not only to increase the per-
centage OF recoveries, but reduce the
fatality of the disease In his annual
address Tuesday DR.. Matthews said:
1t is rational 10 assume that tuber-
culosis not only can be prevented by
precautionary measures, but 1t can be
cured by proper environment and
treatment. 1t is equally true, even in
the bes Of homes, the treatment usu-
ally accorded the patient is Iil in eff
feet and accomplishes nothing. Some
thing more than this must be done If
we expect to materially decrease the
death rate.
Authorities differ on the percentage
of durable cases of tuberculosis under
ordinary climatic and hyglenic condi-
lions But the difference is slight, be-
ing from 21 per cent to 27 per cent.
Lr. Matthews thinks higher percent
age OF recoveries could be recorded If
real systematic and scientific treat
ment could be afforded these patients.
He recommends hospitals designed es-
pecially for consumptives and urges
the association to appoint committee
to prepare full and comprehensive
report of tuberculosis and its ravages
and present it to the next congress, be-
seeching the government to furnish
hospitals in which the poor and others
may receive treatment foE consump-
ton He also urges that the same
matter be Drought more prominently
before the state board Of health. FL
nally, the doctor says the best preven-
Dion OF the disease must come from
the education of the people to the facts
When 1t is considered that consump-
| tion kills annually four and one-half
times as many persons as do small
pox, scarlet fever, typhoid fever and
diphtheria combined, it is proper to
charge the medical profession with the
important mission of reducing the aw-
ful ravages of this disease. DR.. Mat
thewss appeal to the American Medical
association cannot be too seriously
considered. Magnificent as has been
the progress in medicine in the past
half century, there is still required OF
1t great task in conquering con-
sumption The State Journal hopes
the American Medical association will
not adjourn until it has taken broad
measures toward stamping out this

To Make Gold Circulate.

Acting under the impression that
gold, If coined in smaller denomina-
tions, would be more largely used by
the people in lieu of paper money, the
director of the Mint is about to coin
gold or less denomination than the$5
piece. Under the law he can only coin
the $50 piece, and 1t is doubtful if this
will prove at all popular, or answer
the purpose intended.
The unpopularity OF gold is hard to
account for, and especially in view of
the fact that large part OF the paper
money in circulation is filthy in the
extreme and repulsiYe to handle. But
this generation, and, indeed, the one
before 1t, has seen but vOf hard
