Griggs on Trusts.

According to Attorney General Griggs, the country is In the hands of the trusts and the Federal laws are powerless to afford relief. These eormorauts have their clutches on the peoples throats and the anti trust law, that bears Mr. Shermaa's name, is impotent to make them re lease the hold.
 These views of MT. Griggs are set forth in letter which he wrote late lY to an inq turing friend who want ed to know why the Attorney Gen eral was not invoking the antitrust law to stay the onward march of these UnIa apfui combines before they had completely monopolized every evenuc of opportunity and source of production.
 In his reply Mr. Griggs states that the constitutionality of the Sherman law has been decided af- drmatively more tkan once, but that the act only clothes the Federal courts with jurisdiction over a mo nopoly or trade that comes under the classification of international or interstate commerce. According to his interpretation, trusts which are chartered as corporations under the laws of any one of the States are not subject to the provisions of the an ti-trust law He cites the decision fn the litigation against the Sugar Trust, which was handed down in 1891, ID supportof this view. He does not express an opinion#tbat these combines are comfortable, but ventures statemen5 that eff amenable to any law, they are ameaableto the laws Of t6e res pee tive states.
 If Attorney Griggs is correct ia his interpretations the Sherman aHtizffQsEEa#a there seems to be no relief from tbe trust e75l except through aa amendment to tbe Fed= eraI Constitution. or organized fe- pfeszfYez ze4islati8a B8 the several s5a1es.-st.g Louis Republic.

THE TRACING OF SUICIDE.
Believed That Unsuitable Diet Has an
 Injurious Effect.

Believed That Unsuitable Diet Has an
 Injurious Effect.
 Dr. Haig is of the opinion that sul- eide may be traced to error in diet, the error being the eating of meat, the drinking of beer and of tea and the smoking of tobacco. His facts all fall comfortably into their places in SUD- port of his hypothesis. Are there not more suicides among men than among women, and do not men consume more meat, more beer and more tobacco than the women? Again, suicide IS more common in England than in Scotland, not apparently because the Scotch are more eanny race, but be- cause the English eat more meat and drink more beer, while the Scotch eat less meat and drink whisky instead of beer. After maintaining that suicide was less common among the Scotch, 1t was perhaps hardly polite, when ad- dressing @ Scotch audience, to so on to say that suicide increased with civtliza- tion. But the fact was explained on the ground of more injurious diet, that of civilized man being more productive of uric acid and thus of suicide than that which prevails where civilization is less advanced. Uric acid is, in fact, at the bottom of all this, and, accord ing to Dr. Haig, the incidence of sui eide tallies with the daily, annual and life fluctuations of uric acid in the blood, being commonest when uric acid is most abundant, namely. in the morn tngs, in spring and summer and in childhood and the full prime of life.
 We have no doubt that errors of diet are responsible for much, and, among other things, for a certain number of suicides; nay, we would go further and admit that unsuitable diet, deranga= meDt of the proper relation between nutrition and waste and the eonse- qaent loading of the tissues and the blood with abnormal products of me- tabolism have much to do with that iil-temper= and diseontent which lead men to lay their hands violently upon their neighbors and sometimes on themselves. All this may be taken for granted but it is at present far from proved that the peceant material IS in all cases the same. and still further are we from being agreed that uric acid is the origin of the evil.

Thunder and Lightning.

It is said that lightning may ba rec ognized at a distance of 200 miles when the clouds among which it plays are at a high altitude, but thunder can sell dom be heard at a greater distance than ten miles The sound of thun- der is also subject to refraction by layers of different density in the atmos- phere. as well as to the effects of " sound shadows" produced by hills and other interposed objects. These are among the reasons for the existence of the so-caued Sheet" or summer lightning, which seems to be unattend- ed by thunder.

Powered superstitIOR.

Students of architecture have often wondered why the two towers Of Notre Dame are not of equal size. though they appear so to the casual observer. A writer in one of the recent English magazines has found the explanation, which is rather curious. It appears that when the cathedral was built the cathedral of a suffragan bishop was not entitled to two towers of equal size, and for centuries the bishop of Paris was suffragan to the bishop of Sens.

Nuelein Cure for Typhoid Fever
(New Orleans statesl

Philadelphia is, confessedly, the hot.bed of typhoid lever, and this because ot it's impure water supply. A few years ago Dr. John Aulde in the pages of the New York Medical Journal expourded a new process of treatment of the disease, the virtue of which has been since proven by experiments of surgeons in some of tae army camps. The remedy is a copper arsenite and nueleia solu- ton, in speaking Of which the Rec ord has the following comment that will be understood by the faculty however much She technical terms employed may confuse the Iayman.
 Before stating the results of these experimental cases alluded 10 it may be well to recall the central significance of this new remedy. Both typhoid fever and malaria are diseases in which there is an absence of leucocy5osis; that is to say, the polynuclear white blood corpuscles fail to perform their proper function as seayengers of the vascular sys. tem, owing to the lack of nuclein, their proper nutrition. Dr. Aulde's conception has been to introduce an artidciaIIy prepared nucIeir, there by revitalizing the exhausted leu eoeytes and rendering the human blood system dtsease-destroYing, as in q state of health, As for the rest of this probosed remedy, as he him sell remarks: The physiological oasis of medication byl copper ar senite Is too well known, and the brilliant clinical successes attending it's employment too long establish ed, to require further elaboration as

Wheeler IS MAD.
Quarreled With Otis and Wants
to Come Home.
Commanding General Tried to
Side Track Him.

New York. Sept. IA dispatch to
the World from Hong Kong says:
Advices which were sent here to
avoid Otis censorship at Manila, bear
ing date of September Z, say:
General Joseph Wheeler only OBJ
tanned an assignment to active duty af-
ter serious dispute with General Otis
who wanted to sidetrack the veteran
fighter by sending him to some obscure
post in the southern islands. General
Wheeler now declares that he will ap-
ply for permission to return to the
United States soon unless there is some
change in the management of affairs in
the Philippines. An association of na-
tives styling itself The Filipino Lib
Grafton Society," has applied for per-
mission to organize in Manila with Gen.
Otis as the president. The general has
declined to pledge himself in the mat
ter, but thought it might be possible to
forward the operations of the associa-
ton.
According to private letters received
within the American lines several of
the rebel colonels and two of Aguinal-
dos brigadiers intend to allow them
selves to be captured when the United
States troops attack Tarlac because
they are tired of retreating. The
World correspondent has the names of
these discOntented Filipino officers, but
to publish them would betray them to
the vengeance of AguinaldO."

STILL AT HONG KONG.
Twentieth Kansas Will Resume It's
Journey Today.
New York, Sept. PA dispatch t

New York. Sept. IA dispatch to
the World from Hong Kong says:
Many serious complaints have been
made by the discharged soldiers now
on board the transport Tartar which
is now being repaired here. These men
declare that the vessel is overcrowded,
that she is in a bad sanitary condi-
tion and that the supplies of food are
not sufficient. The officers in charge
admit the genuineness of some of these
complaints, but they declare that the
discharged soldiers crowded the ship
of their own accord, although they had
option Of remaining in Manila until the
next troop ship should sail. The con-
ditiOn of the vessel will seriously af-
feet the health of the returning SOL
dfers. There are 1000 of them on
board being carried back to San Fran
cisco.
The soldiers on the Tartar are fra
ternizing with the British regulars on
duty here and are being entertained at
the various messes of the garrison At
these gatherings the Anglo-American
alliance is always enthusiastically
toasted. The Tarter will sail today.
