Charles A. E. Harriss, manager of Lieu
tenant Dan Godfrey's Grenadier Guard
band, is at the Knutsford, having come
here from Kansas City and Denver
where he made arrangements for con-
| certs.
Mr.. Harriss is an Englishman, with very
noticeable mannerisms and accent. He Is
! greatly delighted with the reception OF
| the band throughout the United States.
! and he comes to the west full of enthusi-
asm.
we were received with wonderful cor
! diality in New York. Boston and all the
! big eastern cities" said he. In Boston.
i when the Fifth Massachusetts regiment
| returned from the Spanish war, We led it
| all over the streets of the city: 1t was a
wonderful reception. and we were cheered
and cheered on every corner.
I'm New York we had the Highland
| Pipers of the Fifth Royal Scots. regi-
! ment in Canada. with us on parade. 1t
was the first time that British soldier
had been seen in that city for q century.
and it created great enthusiasm. But one
of the most interesting incidents was at
Detroit. during the celebration of the
Sons of the American Revolution We
were invited to take part in the exercises,
and l esteemed it very great compli-
ment, for IL was the Sires of these sons
who whipped We Britishers in the last
century.
J. d. Wilcox. a banker of New York
who was at the Kenyon yesterday on a
consider the formation of so many new
trusts as an element of danger to the
country.
These associations said he, "cheapen
the cost of production by their ability to
purc base the best machinery for manu-
featuring. 1t requires far fewer persons
to manage the factories of a so-called
trust and they can command lower rail
road freight rates. so they can offer goods
to the public cheaper than separate and
small concerns. 1t is the history of COM
hot rr-ha no ri fr.tin of
an article is controlled by a trust the
price becomes lower than when 1t was
produced by numerous separate con-
Germs. When the railroads of the west
come under one management the service
will be improved. You will have roads
like the New York Central. Rates viii
go down lower. in order to induce the
public to travel more.
Warren McCord. travelling agent of the
Chicago & Northwestern. who is at the
Knutsford. said last night that the bust
ness of the road was in a flourishing con-
dition. Travel over it was larger during
this spring than in the same months of
last year.
business said he. is much better than
il was last year, notwithstanding. the
Klondike rush of 1893. Business of the
country is better. and the railroads nat
urally reflect it.
