were still fighting for control Of the

were absolutely correct. The exam

100 per cent; tinware and enameled
ware, about 80 per cent; brass goods,
60 per cent chair trust, just formed,

THE AUTOMOBILE TRUST
w. f. STEVENSON CORROBoRATEs
THE STORY FROM NEW YORK.
Street Cars Here in Six
Months.

William E. Stevenson returned last night
from New York. He corroborated the dis
patch given in the Journal of Sunday morn
iEg. which told of the organization of the
automobile trust which includes Indianapo-
lis and which would in six months estab-
lish on the streets of this city a system
of horseless carriages.
The Indianapolis end of the trust Is the
Indianapolis Transfer Company, located in
the stables on North Delaware street, for
merly occupied by the Frank Bird Transfer
Company. Mr.. Stevenson promoted the or
ganization Of the new company and he IL
enc of the large stockholders. When the
company was incorporated few weeks ago
it was noted that the articles of incorpora-
ton expressly set out that the company
was to have the privilege of operating auto
carriages and wagons in Indianapolis.
When the dispatch from the Journals
New York correspondent was read and 1t
became known that Mr.. Stevenson had gone
TO New York, ii was surmised that he was
in conference with the promoters of the
automobile trust. When MIR. Stevenson on
his return last night, was asked if it were
true that he was interested in the Indian
apolis end of the automobile trust he said
that he was.
II was amazed" he said. when / read
Sunday mornings Journal and found in IL
the extensive account of the automobile
trust. 1t was true in every detail and some
body on The inside of the trust must either
have furnished the information or written
the article. L know that when the promot-
ers of the trrst read the Journals dispatch
they will be as greatly surprised as / was,
for the seal OF secrecy had been placed on
the lips of all who were connected with the
scheme"
Mr.. Stevenson said he was confronted
with the Journals dispatch when he
reached Cincinnati. Newspaper men sought
him out and asked him IL the dispatch was
true. He said he could not deny that it
was. He SAID when he reached this city,
that he might not be interviewed because
he had promised not TO talk about the af-
fairs of the big trust. 1t seemed, however
that there as much information the
outside as there was on the inside, and he
approved the statements that Were put TO
him.
Il was astounded when / learned of the
immense amount of capital behind this or
eanization. 1t is sufficient to put through
any project imaginable. 1t is true that the
plans of the company contemplate competi-
ton with street railroads even in the mat
ter of fares. Within six months the auto
mobile system will be in operation in In

Millions Of dollars have been lost by in
trusting the settlement of estates and trus-
teeships for minors or dependencies 70 in
dlviduals. How often a loss of an estate
through the dishonesty or incompetency of
an executor or guardian is noted in the
press, and how often sureties are called on
to make good their bonds for defaulting Of
ficials. Why take such risk. then. when
the State authorizes company to do this
work, and hedges II about with the strongest
legal restraints that can be devised? In
selecting THE UNION TRUST COMPANY
as executor or trustee you have servant
that will be permanently and financially re-
sponsible to large amount. Its trust funds
are kept separate from its own. and its bust
ness is conducted with the greatest care and
expedition. Persons leaving their estates
in its care can make terms in advance and
know what an administration will cost.
