points on the gulf in this section show
damage to property and loss of life by
the recent severe storm were much great
err than at first reported. A number OF
small fishing craft are missing, together
with their crews. The bodies of James
Sanders and two other men, not yet iden-
tilted, have been found in the mouth of
St Charles bay. Several thousand head
of sheep and hundreds of cattle were
driven into the gulf by the storm and
drowned. One ranchman, George A.

sheep in this manner. In Refugio and

Watching the Cargo.

New York. Dec. 1.-The cargo of cof-

into the lighters from the plague ship
j. W. Taylor, Is still as closely watched
as ever by the quarantine police. The
health officials refuse to talk about the
subject, for they say they have decided
the question once for all that the coffee
cannot land. On Saturday the first of the
lighters will be released from quarantine,
as by that time the coffee aboard of this
lighter will have been out of the ships
hold for eight days. What will then be-
come of the lighters Is hard to tell. Men,
bers of the health board say that if the
coffee is brought to land it will be seized
and condemned if found unsanitary

their walk to Central Park, returning to

That evening at the theatre the Adj

What Ais Many Men.

There is no need to describe the
peculiar weakness with which so many
men are afflicted-you all know what
it is-it may have been caused by
overwork, indiscretion, or inheritance.
How to cure it is what interests you.
You may have taken many kinds OF
medicine and found no relief-that
proves nothing except that you have
been working on wrong lines. A regu-
lar physician who has seen thousands
of similar cases certainly understands
yours. Such physician is DIR.
Greene, the leading specialist in ner-
vous and chronic diseases, the discov-
erer of DR.. Greene's Nervura. You can
consult DIR. Greene without fee or cost,
personally or by letter, at his office, 80
w Fourteenth street. New York City.
If it is not convenient for you to call,
write DR.. Greene a letter-you will
receive prompt answer explaining
your case. Remember that conSulta-
ton and advice are free.

GOVERNMENT PROTECTION FOR
TRUSTS!

Events are transpiring rapidly these
days. We are making mighty progress
or retrograding-in many directions.
On the very Leels of governmental CT
forts in many parts Of the country to
suppress the trusts as Illegal comes the
appeal of one of the trust magnates
to the government itself for protec-
ton against the assaults of the Off
GERS of the law in the States-such.
for example, as Attorney General Mon
nett, OF Ohio. President J. w. Gates,
of the American Steel and Wire Com
pany, in his testimony before the In
dustrial Commission actually made
this plea for governmental protection
for trusts! He advocated a national
corporation law by which charters
would be granted by the United States.
He could see no reason, he said. why
a company chartered by New jersey
or West Virginia or Delaware should
be subject to attack in Illinois, Ne
braska or Ohio, and the only remedy
he could see would be to have them
chartered by the general government.
This is calculated 10 take away the
breath of the people who have all along
looked upon these combines as in direct
violation of the antitrust laws not on.v
Of the States but of the general gov
eminent, itself. To these Mr.. Gates's
appeal will appear much as the plea
of criminal for the protection of the
law against the law itself
National charters for trusts would
be fine thing, indeed the trusts,
A national license to plumber the peo-
pie of the States in defiance of State
lawsi There would be Capitalization
carried out pat 1t would be
entirely in accord with mod
ern plutocratic development. Bulwark

Endorsement of this law.
Our city is now without a city solic-
itor owing to Council falling to con-
firm the Mayors appointments. What
the Mayor will do is not known, but
from the voice of the people Mr.. Jas.

stable that no one need be afraid of

League, has been in the city for the

WALL STREET SIMON SAYS THUMBS

On Monday, apropos to the cry of
Wall street for more money and at
the imminent risk of bringing down
upon its head the excavations of the
administration organs, the Register
said:
Which is the better way of supplying
the additional money business requires
the Wall street way or the Democratic
way?
We know which plan will be adopted.
Our imperial expenses have already
brought the government to. the necessity
NAL of Secretary Gage, another big gold
bond issue is imminent. When Wall street
calls the government must oDedlenlly an
swer. To that extent we are plutocracy
already.
Secretary Gage had denied it was
the Treasury's intention to relieve
the strain by purchasing more bonds.
But now the announcement is made
that the Treasury will purchase bonds
to the amount of $25,000 600 And this
In the very face of Mr.. Cages denial
that such action would be taken
1t shows how little even the Secre-
tary himself knows what action he will
take until the Wall street bosses of
the administration say what action he
SHALL take!
The Register, however, lays no claim
to being prophet-indeed, it re-
quires no prophet to foretell that this
administration will do what its
moneyed creators and owners want it
to do. When Wall street wants funds
to finance gigantic trusts or to oil up
the machinery of the big gambling
game on the New York Stock Ex-
change, it passes the word on to Wash
ington to divert the peoples money in
the United States Treasury to that pur-
pose-and Washington obediently re-
spends. When Wall street wants the
government to issue bonds it will say
SO and the bonds will be issued
But when the people and legitimate
business seek relief from the
thraldom of dear money and ask
that Constitutional bi-metallism be
restored, all Wall street rises in
mighty protest against the popular
silver lunacy" and floods the campaign
