Howl,ng Has Become unpopniar.

Mr.. Bryan Is against trusts, but he
hasn't said yet what he would do to
throttle them were he elected Presi-
dent. And it may be necessary for him
to outline a policy before the people

Mr.. Oxnard's statement that trusts
are the result Of competition which has
taken business beyond a paying point
is certainly the truth as applied to most
cases. Combinations are the law Of
present day tendencies, and it Is only
natural that when competition so re-
duced profits that there was nothing
left for the producer, combination
should step In to prevent such a
slaughter This does not justify such
combinations but merely explains them.
1t also indicates the foolishness Of con-
Meeting these results with the Tariff.
The greater trusts now In the United
States were, formed under the German
Wilson Tariff system. The greatest
trusts in all history have been formed
In other countries at other times and

estimate in California of little insect
which fertilizes the fig.

HAVANA, June 26.-The Society of
Veterans of Independence, organized
by the leaders of the former military
assembly, continues growing and en-
listing all who are willing to work
unitedly. 1t is composed of three
classes-members of the army, civil
ians who acted as agents n the Cuban
cities during the war, and those who
were deported by the Spaniards. Head
quarters will be established in the cap
itals of provinces. A prominent mem
ber of the society said Saturday:
Just as soon as our organization is
complete we shall ask Gov. Gen. Brooke
for recognition and permission to op-
crate as political body. Then each
district will name delegates to a pro-

in other ways facilitate preparations
for the election of president, using,
in the meantime, every effort to secure
harmony among the various elements.
Members of the organization will be

Around one cage he strung electric

LIQUID STEAM A SUCCESS.
New Motive Power Is Tested on
the New York Central
Railroad.

Liquid steam. Il discovery made in the
development of the new motive power,
compressed air, has had a public semi
official test on the Putnam division of
the New York Central railroad, and is
declared TO be success. The test was
made with the permission of the New
York Central and the understanding is
that large motors will be built and the
new power will be tried by the Central
for hauling its cars through the tunnel
under Park avenue.
Liquid steam is the rival of COM
pressed air and is the invention of W. E.
Prall. He was formerly associated with
Joseph II. Hoadley, who, with Richard
Croker and Joseph Letter, have under
taken the exploitation of the COM
pressed air motor. Mr.. Prall's invention
is based on the utilization of SUPER
heated water as motive power and he
and those interested with him claim
for it all the wonderful things claimed
for compressed air, and assert that it is
in many ways superior. Henry L.
Sprague, of the law firm of Stetson, Jen-
nings & Russell, is the president of the
Prall company, known as the Storage
Power company.
Another company is forming to ex-
plot Mr.. Pralrs invention and rival the
Croker-Leiter syndicate. 1t will have
for its object the construction of en-
gines and motors for the use of yachts
and steamships, cars, carriages, trucks
and vehicles of all kinds and be oper-
ated by compressed air and superheated
water, working together or separately.

Already the receipts for the year ag-

of'heavy receipts. yet to be accounted
for. Up. to this date the customs re-
ceipts amount to over $500, 400, 600; from
internal revenue S263, 55O,O 900 was real
ized, and from miscellaneous sources
there was received $50. 800, 900.
The total receipts from all sources
last. year amounted to S4O5 321 1885,
while the expenditures aggregate
s443 36s, 5s2. leaving "a deficit cf $685.
O47,247.
From the closest calculation that can
now be made, the war revenue act
which. with the exception o few
items, went into effect July 1, 1s9S
will realize for the year little less
than $780, 600. 600. The receipts from
tobacco alone will probably
show an increase of SO. 800, 900;
beer and other fermented liquors
an increase of over $2S 1000, 900 and
oleomargarine an increase of about
$5S5 900. The two items which have
produced more than ten times as much
revenue as any two others are those
applying to documentary and proprie-
tary stamps. On April 80 last,
these items had produced over $50. 500.-
600, and it is not improbable that by
July the total will exceed $44, 200, 900.
The tax on legacies will probably pro-
duce not much in excess of $1,000, 900,
while the special collected from bank
ers will exceed S., 800. .OOo
The expenditures up to this time ag-
gregate about 100000. 900. Of this
amount S22s, 600, 900 was paid out on
acquisitions from the war department,
S64, 900, 900 on account of the navy,
$139, 000. 600 on account of pensions and
nearly $4,000, 600 on account of
interest on the public debt; $l2,-
675.000 was paid to the Indians
and S117, 300, 900 was disbursed on civil
and miscellaneous account. At this
time it is impossible to state with any
certainty what the war with Spain and
the troubles in the Philippines have
cost during this year, but an APP
proximation has been made of
the actual cash payments on these
accounts which places the amount at
$3.50, O00,0 ZOO. A calculation has been
made at the treasury which shows that
the leaving out of the reckoning the
$3.50, 900, 900 expended this year on ac-
count of the war; the 81, OO0 900 pro-
