The silyerware trust was the subject OF
investigation by the Industrial Commission
yesterday Samuel Dodd, Of Meridian,
Conn, President Of the International Silver
Company, which was organized last year
by the combination Of several manufac-
turing concerns, was On the witness stand
IN the morning. in the afternoon \. Bur
ton Rogers, Of the firm OF C. Rogers &
Sons, Of Danbury. Conn, manufacturers OF
sllverplated ware. told the Commission Of
the experience Of his company with the
silverware trust.
Mr. D0dd began by stating that the com
blnauon which he represented manufac-
tured sllyerware OF all kinds. including
sterling and plated ware, and it was esti-
mated by him that from so to go per cent
Of the plated ware and 10 per cent Of the
sterling silver goods sold in this country
were controlled by his organization.
The witness explained the advantages Of
manufacture By consolidation. The com
bine has not he said, decreased the mum
Der Of travelling statesmen employed by the
company, Thus far since the consolidation
was effected but one store controlled by
the combine has been closed but it is now
planned 10 close at least ten Of the fifteen
stores Of the company. Two manufacturing
plants have been closed. but this has been
done TO cheaper the operation Of the con-
Germs factories by utilizing waste room.
A larger number Of employees are now on
the pay rolls than under the various inde-
pendent mauagemeuts. Previous to the
combine, the manufacturers were selling
their products Al a loss.
Since the formation OF the International
Silver Company several advances have been
made in prices. which the witness stated
were actuated by increased cost Of raw ma
ferisl- There has been. Mr. Dodd stated
an advance in wages since the combination
was effected that averages from 70 : Il
per cent.
The International Silver Company is
capitalized at $50 900 600, Of which 81 ,O00.
GOO is common stock and s. 0O0. 600 pre-
ferred. Common stock has been issued to
the amount OF S9,S0o 600 and OF preferred
$500, eco. The bonded indebtedness
amounts 70 $1,000, 00o
Mr.. Dodd stated that the combine is a
sort Of family arrangement between the sil-
verBare manufacturers Of Connecticut. who
know each other and who have enioved
friendly relations for years past. No ef-
fort Wes made when the company was
formed 10 secure a control OF the business
OF the country and there are a number Of
The times., 1899-11-16

competing firms throughout the United
States. When asked by Prof. jerks what
he considered 10 be a fair proportion be-
tween the value of the trademarks and
plants held by the company and the au-
thOrized capitalization, the witness at first
showed an inclination to evade the ques-
ton. but finally concluded that the trade
marks were worth 0,G00 600, while the
plants and stock on hand amounted TO as
much more, making the value $50, ,000 600
capitalization
Mr.. Rogers testified that his company
was in opposition TO the trust, although
when the organization Of the trust was
first undertaken an option had been Sc
cured on his plant and his firm had prac-
tically agreed 10 90 into the combination.
In contemplation Of this the promoters had
been allowed to examine the books of the
firm The negotiations were afterwards
broken of, and later another attempt was
made by the same promoters to perfect
an organization, bat his firm was not
asked 70 participate.
The witness believed that the knowledge
gained of the books of his company was
being used by the trust. He reviewed the
history of the latter organization, and eX-
pressed the opinion that the ones who had
derived the most benefit out of it so far
were the promoters. The stock of the trust
had been manipulated TO certain extent,
and was now greatly reduced in value ac-
cOrding to the market price.
Mr. Rogers was of the opinion that
combination run on strictly business prin-
ciples would be an advantage in the silver
ware business. but he indicated that his
firm was better off out of the present trust.
At a late meeting of the board Of di-
rectors. the members Of that body in
creased their own salaries from $4,000
year to $4,000. The presidents salary,
which was 81 600 year, was increased to
$4,000 while the salary Of the secretary
was raised TO S25, 900 a year from So GOO
In speaking Of the growth Of the indus
try in this country, the witness said that
a few years ago, silverware was imported
from Europe TO a considerable extent but
that now the American manufacturers were
not only supplying the home market but
were exporters Of fancy silverWare TO a
very large extent

PENSIONS OF WIDOWS.
The G. \. X. Committee Has Another
Audience With the President.

The G. \. X. Committee Has Another
Audience With the President.
For the second time this week the com
mittee appointed by the Grand Army of
the Republic to urge pension legislation
called on the President yesterday. In the
committee were Gen. Daniel +. Sickles, Of
New York; R. B. Brown, of GAINESVILLE,
Ohio; J. W. Burst, of Sycamore, Ill; Clark
c. Adams, OF Boston, and Hon. John NJ.
Palmer, of New York.
The committee desired the President TO
issue an order requiring the Commissioner
Of Pensions 10 raise the limit Of widows
income under which they may receive pen
sions from sos to $3.50 and that in future
the disabilities Of claimants for pensions
be aggregated. These two concessions
were asked for in the resolutions passed
by the G. A. r. encampment last Septem-
Der, a copy of which were presented to the
President by the committee when they
called on him Monday. What understand
ing the committee and the President ar
rived at the members of the committee
declined to state.
H. Clay Evans, the Commissioner of
Pensions, called on the President as soon
as the G. AR. committee I'D left. He
said there was no trouble between him
self and the committee, but that he did
not construe the law as the committee did
in regard to the questions relating to
widows and the disabilities of soldiers, but
If the President or the Secretary of the
Interior saw fit TO order him to carry out
the law as the q. A. r. committee want
ed it done, he would certainly do SO. Mr.
Evans did not care to express an opinion
as to the Presidents possible action in
the matter

A COMPLIMENT TO AMERICA.
Chief Justice Chambers Opinion OF
the samoan Arrangement.

CBief Justice Chambers Opinion of
the Samoan Arrangements
Judge W s. Chambers, Of Alabama,
whose position as Chief Justice of Samoa
viii not be affected until the treaty for the
partition Of the Samoan group has been
ratified by the Governments of the United
States. Great Britain, and Germany is in
washington in consultation with the Of
iicials OF the State Department Judge
Chambers takes the view that the decision
arranged will give this Government what
will be most valuable to ii. He said yes
terday that Pago Pago Harbor viii be a
great factor in the development of Amer
ican trade with Australasia and South
Africa.
According TO the Chief Justice. the ISL
ands are not valuable commercially. but
they are very valuable as place of call
for American merchant ships between this
country and Australia He contends that
the fact that Great Britain and Germany
give the United States first choice In the
partition was intended as q compliment TO
this country. and goes even further in say
ing that the three powers have apparently
Joined hands in developing the worlds
commerce and TO preserve peace While
they act together. he said, the peace of the
world is assured They find that they are
necessary 10 each other, and to that end
have agreed 10 bury all differences. The
Chief Justice expressed the conviction that
there would be no trouble in maintaining al

ily converted for use as cruisers or other
auxiliary use by the military power of the
United States. whenever needed for such
purposes, and they can be so taken or en-
ployed by the United States at any time.
Regarding the training OF American sea
men, the bill holds that all ships are
bound constantly 10 educate and train
American boys for the various necessities
of naval operations.
All the foregoing conditions and require
ments being complied with, American YES
sells are to be ordered and assisted in re-
gaining and increasing American trade TO
distant ports by a compensation graduated,
except in one case, upon the distance sailed
and the size and speed of the ship. The
exception referred to is in the case Of
sailing vessels and slow steamships, the
maintenance Of which is held to be es>
sential to our maritime progress and pros
perity.
Vessels engaged in the deep-sea fisher
les are also provided for, upon the policy
of supplying to the United States body
of intelligent and experienced mariners at
all times ready to serve the country. The
respective compensations arranged in the
bill have been computed, it il believed,
upon the lowest bases consistent with the
attainment of the great and urgent objects
already stated
According to the MarltlHle Register
the bill has been endorsed by the chamber
of commerce committees, boards of trade,
boards of transportation, and similar in
stitutions in the various cities of this
country Commissioner of Navigation
Chamberlain, according TO the same au-
thority, favors the bill, while on the other
hand it has been assailed by many persons
connected with foreign trade and ship
ping. Accusation" says the Register"
has been made that the bill is ambiguous
and insincere particularly as regards the
compulsory employment of a certain per-
centage of American citizens as part Of the
ships crews. II is also maintained that
the bill is unjust in granting lions share
of the immense bounues to be paid by the
Government in the next twenty years.
Some of these assertions may be true. The
phraseology of the bill may leave a loop
hole by which it is possible TO nuliify the
intent of the bill in this aspect. 1t is
also true that some steamship lines will
be more benefited by the bill than others.
The Maritime Register" however, en-
dorses the bill as being the first earnest
effort in thirty years to revive American
shipping and a measure that. if passed,
would tend to revive American shipping
interests to a remarkable extent.
Mr.. Hanna, to show to what extent this
country is dependent upon foreign shipping

| MARITIME Register the following table:
