REPORTED NEGOTIATIONS.
VnnderbIIts for tlbemarIe and Ches-
npenlse and Dismal swamp Canals.

NORFOLK, VA. December s.-(Spe-
clal)-It is stated here late tonight, OF
authority. which is considered ac-
curate. that the Vanderbilts are nego-
tatIng for the purchase of both the Abe
marie and Chesapeake canal and the re-
Gently opened Dismal Swamp canal.
The traffic passing through these water
ways offers serious competition TO the
two lines Of railway-the Norfolk, VIZ
glnia Beach and Southern, and the Nor
folk and SOuthern-recently acquired by
the Vanderbilts. Their object I'm pur-
chasing tho canals is 10 control a mo-
nopoIy of transportation facilities TO
Eastern North Carolina, the rich lumber
territory cut OF 10y the sounds from all
other lines save the Vanderbilt system.
Mr.. j.. :. BurWeu, secretary and trec-
surer Of the Albemarle and Chesapeake
Company, stated tonight that he had
not been approached on the subject.

ATHLETIC IRONY.

Senator Chandler. Of New Hampshire.
I'm spirit OF facetousness. has intro
duced in Congress a bin TO promote ath-
letic sports at the Military Academy al

vides that the course OF instruction at
those famous Institutions shall dispense
with the study Of higher mathematics
and the foreign languages and subst-
tute course I'm athletics 10 embrace es-

outcome of the recent foot ball contest
between the West Point and Annapolis
cadets. Just why that game should have
brought down so much severity from
Senator Chandler r. more than the ave-
rage man can see. II the cadets AT 'hose
institutions were frequently allowed 'he
privilege of indulging In such contests
there might be ample ground for face-
tiousness. but as we understand IT, ne
at neither OF them Is enjoyable, ana
cadet. to acquit himself creditabiy' must
apply himself assiduously to work but
there is much truth In the saying 'na'
"all work and no play make JACK uu'i
how" and the rule doubtless applies as
well TO cadets as TO other persons. 30 IL
IS only fair TO be reasonable In th's mat
ter though we do not advocate MAKING
the naval and military academies pea
sure resorts for young men VINO traVei
on their muscle.
For years athletic contests were not
allowed at West Point or Annapolis. but
recently the brass-buttoned boys We're ac-
corded the privilege which resulted in the
game last week. II is safe to presume
their time is not absorbed by too many
OF such games. and until that period
comes well have TO overlook their youth
fulness.
And. by the way. thoughtful persons
will wonder how Senator Chandler, VINO
apparently believes in answering rigor
(as applied TO other people,, can recon-
Gle this theory with his own act. where

TOTHER SIDE.

Recently. the Southern Cotton Spinners'
Association, in session at Charlotte ~
c.. and representing sixty mills, adopted
resolutions favoring expansion and an
"opon-door" policy in China. a copy Of
these resolutions was addressed to Sena-
tor Pettigrew, OF North Dakota, and he
has replied to them in very emphatic
terms. He gives az his opinion that for
us 70 induce China 10 open her ports
10 our manufactures we would have TO
open our ports TO hers And this, ne
thinks. ultimately would be anything but
q benefit 10 the cotton spinners or the
United States. lie intimates that the
Chinese are making such rapid progress in
spinning that with anything Ike reciproc-
ity. instead Of our selling goods to China
il would not be long before China would
be selling goods TO US! He says that
large. modern cotton-mill making good
yarn is located at Hancow. China, and
that It is operated exclusively by Chinese
laborers.
fhis mill has 1900 spindles and 100
looms in operation. The average wages
paid the engineers weavers. spinners,
and carders, is N.75 month in our
money. and they board themselves!
There are eight or ten such mills In
Shanghai. and more are being built. "Of
course. unrestricted commerce means free
trade. Therefore, It means the in
PRODUCTION. without duty, Of Chinese
goods"
Mr.. Pettigrew declines to be a party
10 any such movement as that. and he
is down" upon the whole expansion
business.
Really, ne puts that question in a very
forcible light. Those who look upon our
occupation of the Philippines as a step
toward acquiring a great trade In the
East would DO well to consider what he
says. lie can be answered only in one
way-to wit, that we ought to coax, or
compel China to open her doors to our
products while We keep ours heavily
barred against hers.
OF course. China will never willingly
consent to adopt any such policy. Nor
could we count upon England's aiding US
in compulsory measures, since England
is as anxious as China would be to break
down our tariff restrictions.

President Mckinley. in discussing the
trust question, in his annual message,
says:
combinations Of capital organized into
trusts to control the conditions of trade
among our citizens, TO stile competition.
limit production and determine the
prices Of products used and consumed by
the people, are justly provoking public
discussion and should early claim the
attention Of the Congress"
And again:
1T is universally conceded that com
binauOns which engrOss or control the
market Of any particular kind Of mer-
chandise or commodity necessary to the
general community, by suppressng ma
tural and ordinary competition, whereby
prices are unduly enhanced TO the gene
raj consumer, are obnoxious, not only
TO the common law. but also to the public
welfare. There must be a remedy for the
evils involved in such organizations
Whatever power the Congress pos
sesses over this most important subject
should be promptly ascertained and as
serted"
The President states the case forcibly-
aye, convincingly. But how would the
President feel and what would Hanna
say. should Congress take the formers
words in al seriousness and kin the
nouriahing mother Of trusts-the Repubn-
can robher tariff?
