Plea for Combination.

He made a general argument in favor of
combination In trade, which, he said, is
simply a part of modern evolution, under
which the manufacturer and the consumer
coming closer together 1t is cheaper
ing the product to the consumer, he said,
just as the loom cheapened the product.
The only argument against the combination
is the argument that had been used against
the sewing machine. y"
No other witnesses were heard today.

The witness said the combination IN Whch
he Is interested in selling spirits at VIZ
cents gallon which, he believed was the
exact cost to other companies for turning
out the product. 1t allowed his comolna-
ton a fair profit. They (his associates)
were satisfied, he said. that If they should
put up the price it would bring in competi-
ton.
TT has been shown" he said, that the
trust is not d guarantee against competi-
ton.
They did not expect a monopoly. Others
would keep in the business. and the only
way to get ahead of them was to produce
spirits cheaper than their clmpettor. They
had been able by the combination to save
the salaries of 800 commercial travellers,
who are now doing other work The saw
ing was so great that the combination could
now sell spirits for 10 cents over the duty
whereas formerly it had cost 10 cents to
make and dispose Of 1t.
Mr.. Bradley said he had been interested
in obtaining figures to show the cost of dis
losing of whisky, and had found that
every year so 900 900 is lost between the
dstiller and the consumer. That was the
result of various methods for pushing one
or another kind of whisky.
