The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1899-11-30

The matter is one about which the
public should have little concern. The
interested parties are Admiral Dewey
and those who contributed to buy the
house. If they are satisfied the pub
lie has no right to complain. But it is
likely that the incident will give tenn
porary check, at least, to the form of
hero worship that takes the shape of at
tempting to measure with money
standard the value of extraordinary
public service. Detroit journal.

Big RAILROAD COMBINE
Pool Of New York Central and the Penn
sylVania System.
Vandebullt and Morgan Preparing for q Big
Deal-To Buy Up All Competing Roads
and Make Rates.

New York, July 9.--Think of
$2,5O0,000,0OO of capital being
controlled by three men. These
three men are William K. Wander.
bilt, j. Pierpont Morgan, and A.
j. Cassatt, today the dominating
factors in the railroad world.
1t has been apparent for some
time these financial giants are at
work with thorough understand
ing, and from at least one incident
it SCENE that the two great rail
way groups known as the New
York Central and Pennsylvania
systems, which until lately were
bitter rivals, have swung around,
and have set out to divide up the
territory they traverse. 1t is as.
serted on good authority that they
have seriously considered the idea
of procuring control of certain
railroads jointly, and establishing
pooling system which will ad.
roitly evade the law.
The fact has never been pub
lisbed that the New York Central
and Pennsylvania several weeks
ago had experts examine the
Wabash with view to acquiring
control of it 60 as to remove it as
a rate disturber. The experts
travelled over the road, and made a
careful inspection of all of its re-
sources, and did all but go over
the books. Nothing further, how
ever, was done at that time, al
though the Vanderbilt and Penn
sylvania officials were satisfied
with the result of the inquiry. 1t
is said also that gigantic scheme
was on foot for getting control OF
all the principal lines between
New York, Boston, Chicago, and
st. Louis in the interest OF these
two groups. In this way they
would stamp out once for all the
practice of rate cutting.
With the knowledge that the
New York Central and Pennsyl-
vauia are working along friendly
lines in their expansive policy,
and that Mr.. Morgan is friendly
too, it becomes apparent that as
these three great sggregations Of
capital grow they will form ALI.
ances, and tend to establish a
mighty combination that will con.
troll everything in sight.

CROKER WILL NOT BOLT.
Whoever the Candidate, Whatever the
Issue, Tammany Will be Loyal.

Special to the Washington Post.
New York, January 31.-Mr. Oliver H. P.
Belmont's paper, the Verdict, contains
significant editorial this week. 1t de-
clares that, though ardently opposed to
free silver as an issue next year, Tam
many Hall will Loyalty support the candi-
date and platform of the democratic party.
as 1t has always done heretofore The
Verdict says on this points
''If Bryan is named in 1900, Croker will
be for him; Tammany Hall will be for
him. Personally, Croker deems high and
well of Bryan. He holds him a leader of
breadth and force and truth Croker may
differ from Bryan on finance or some
other question of politics, but he yields
him his whole respect. And IL Bryan
should again be the choice of a national
convention, whoever else may fail him
were no the last In the lines, Bryan would
have the utter support of Croker to win
him victory. Croker never bolted and he
never will Tammany never bolted and 1t
never will. They both stood for Cleve-
land in 80, and that means that no man,
no day, will ever come when either Croker
or Taminany will be found outside the
ranks of the democracy. Croker is not for
silver. That need not separate him from
his party In 1900; 1t didn't In 1885,"
Further, the Verdict hints at a scheme
of the deposed leader Sheehan, now out
for silver, to set up g. contrasting delega-
ton to the next national convention, and
warns the democracy OF the country to
beware of the man. Ex-senator Hill, II Is
intimated, Is giving encouragement to the
Sheehan scheme, though Hill himself aban-
doned Bryan at the last moment In the
memorable silver campaign. Concluding
the Verdict says: First and last, the
party's interest lies In full reliance on and
fellowship with Croker and the democracy
that never yet failed the national ticket
and it in no sort runs with any Hill-led
clique. who, without party following or
party force. speak for nobody. stand for
nothing but themselves.

representing, as 1t did, an enormous ex-
pansion in loans and reduction In surplus
reserves. The net result of these general
influences was an uncertain and at times
a feverish stock market, particularly in
the earlier dealings. Among the special
ties, Pacific Mail was strong on Washing
ton advices, indicating the probable pas
sage of the subsidy bill. The grangers and
the Pacifics were generally steady, with
Northern Pacific common showing decided
strength. Consolidated Gas advanced
smartly and the other gas stocks were like
wise strong. No explanation was given
for the sharp advance in st. Louis and
Southwestern. The market closed strong
and active. We continue very bullish on
the market. The wonderful activity of the
southern iron and lumber trades, the re-
ports of trade journals from all parts of
the country show almost unparalleled pros
perity; buy stocks.

Willing to SnIIt

From the Pittsburg News.
There IS a Pittsburg life insurance agent
of whom 1t is said that he can talk stone
statue into buying a policy in his company,
THE most liberal on earth" He wrote
policy for a Chinaman few weeks ago, the
first ever written for man of that race in
Pittsburg. How he did 1t he alone knows.
The Chinaman has no clear idea of it. He
understood that by paying the premiums
promptly he would be entitled to 5000 some
time. He began bothering the agent for the
money after a couple of weeks had passed,
and the agent tried to explain to him that
he would have to die before he could get it.
The Chinaman fell down a cellarway on
Grant street and was badly hurt. His friends
tried to attend to him without calling In a
doctor. When they did call one in two days
later the doctor was angry.
why didn't you call me sooner?" he
asked. This man is half dead now"
Next day the injured mans brother was
at the insurance Office with claim for 81
500.
. You're not entitled to anything on this"
said the insurance agent, until the man Is
dead"
'Doctol say him half dead answered
the brother. "Why he no glet lat half?'

New York should not follow their example
Nor is there any reason why New York $
law should not be the most just, scientific
and thoroughgong measure Of the sort ever
framed.
And while we are agitating the subject
here let 1t not be neglected in Washington.
Not a session Of congress should pass with
out democratic attempt to revive the ma
tional income tax. The Wilson tax has
never been repealed, and would be revived
without new legislation if the supreme court
should change its mind again; but We can
do better than that now. With Grover
Cleveland no longer oedeyiling the councils
of the democracy, 1t should be possible to
frame a law that would give the tax shirk-
ers some reason for the shrieks Of pain
they emitted without reason in 1884.

AN INCOME TAx?-YEs
ew York Journal.

From the New York Journal.
Senator Coggeshall has introduced a bill
that ought to become the storm center of
popular agitation. 1t provides for number
of reforms in the methods of taxation, all of
them important, but one of them pre-emi-
nently so. That one establishes a state in
come tax. 1t is an even better one in prin-
ciple than the national one embodied in the
Wilson law, since it is graduated, the rate
increasing as the incomes increase.
1t is not likely that a republican legisla-
ture will pass a measure so just and so
democratic as this but that does not affect
the duty of democrats Whenever and
wherever a proposition appears to equalize
the burdens of taxation and abolish lie
infamies of the present system that brushes
the weak and let's the strong go Free It
should be able to count on every demo-
cratic vote.
The Coggeshall bill proposes to exempt
incomes under 81 ,500, and to tax the excess
over that at the rate of one-half of one
per cent. for the first $500, per cent. for
the next $1,000, ~ per cent. for the next
100000 and an additional one-half of one
per cent. for each $4,000 thereafter. This
graduation Is based on a sound and scien-
tific principle. Some limit should be set to
the increase In the rate-otherwise Mr.
Rockefeller would be taxed about 50ol per
cent on his last $4,000 of income, and would
owe the state thirty or forty million dollars
year, which he would have no visible
means OF paying--but that is a detail.
The plan OF increasing the rate as the in
come grows Is recognized by financial au-
thorities as the only just one. 1t prevails
III England and in other European countries
in which finance Is a science. Manifestly
e Is unfair to tax thousand incomes of
s. 500 each-the support OF a thousand fam
ises-as high as one income OF 81 600 600, out
of which only a single family has to be
maintained. The surplus over living ex-
penses might be nothing in the one case-in
the other 1t would be at least nineteenth
of the whole.
Massachusetts and other states have in
come taxes and there is no reason why

Favorable for the Staple
Close WasaFirm

New York, February 6.-After the cotton
market had opened points lower to high
er (English advices not being satisfactory
and the renewed hostilities In the Philip
pines unsettling views here for time,
there was sharp upward movement which
carried the market to a level of 10 to Ii
points above the final figures of Saturday.
Trading on the advance was very active
after large German house had held the
market down for while by Offering large
blocks freely. These were promptly alb
sorbed and everything else offered was
taken up at advancing prices. Orders came
from every direction. but chiefly from Wall
street parties and others who had sold out
last week. The Liverpool contingent sold
at the start, but bought later. Shorts were
considerably alarmed in view of the fact
that Liverpool market was, according to
private cables, unfavorably influenced by
the recent outbreak in the Philippines.
1t was also thought by some of the local
traders that this feature would directly az
feet the market here, but nearly all other
news was bullish, including further accounts
of firm spot markets, with weather in near
ly all the states forbidding field work of
any kind, while forecasts pointed to snow
and rain from Texas to tho Atlantic coast.
AT the same time port receipts were light.
Encouraging advices continued to arrive
from Fall River and other spinning centers
and from cotton cloth markets generally.
In the afternoon the market eased off
partially under periods of realizing, but the
close was firm at a net rise of to IL points.
