TRUSTS HIT HARD.
Texas Law Against Combination In Full
Operation.

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 3.-The anti
trust law passed by the legislature has
gone into effect. Under it's drastic
provisions all trusts, monopolies and
pools and combinations will be forced
to leave the state. 1t also prohibits
merchants from buying and selling
trust goods of all kinds. Many of the
leading insurance companies now do
ing business in the state have threat
ened to withdraw from the state on
account of the drastic provisions of the
law, which requires them to make af-
fidavit that they do not belong to any
rate bureau, either in or out of Texas.
The constitutionality of this extra
territorial feature of the bill will lilel y
be tested in the courts.

platform OF 1860 to show that it set
up the very contention maintained by
the democrats now, that the constitu-
tion was supreme in the territories,
and extended over every foot of
ground over which the United States
had jurisdiction. Clayton, of Ala
bama, created much amusement by
reading a letter, written by Chair
man Payne to w. H. Curtis, Palmyra,

vocated free trade with Puerto Rico
on the ground that it would give re.
lief to the stricken island. The let

erence to the Philippines:
I'VE could not extend the tariff laws
to the Philippine Islands even if we
would"
Clayton asked that the letter and
the extra from Payne's speech in sup
port of the bill, be printed in parallel
columns in the Record, Payne smil-
ingly assented.
Kleburn, of Texas, Perry, of Tennes-
