TRUSTS IN EUROPE.
THE SITUATION ABOUT THE SAME AS
THIS COUNTRY.

washington, Sept 22-Professor ]. W. Jenks
OF the Industrial Commission, who has been In
Europe for some months studying the trust
Proolem there, has submitted a preliminary re-
POF' 20 the Commission on the subject and will
nave report in greater detail ready bv the
time congress assemblies. Professor jerks re-
ports that he found the trust situation in Eng
lahd and on the Continent about the same as in
this country, although it was not causing as
much public comment. The Industrial consoI-
cation there has been forced by the same causes.
according to Professor jerks. as in this coun-
Try namely, severe competition and small prof
us OF the individual concerns. He says that the
methods practised consist in dispensing with a
number Of employees especially superintendent,
statesmen and clerical force, when the combna-
ton is effected, and as the combinations abroad
usually control so 10 90 per cent of their prod
uct and in some cases all Of the market, it is
possible for them to put up prices practically
at viii
industrial combination has been making prog
ress IN Austria since the financial crisis OF 1873
and the consolidation in most lines is more COM
PIete in that country than in any other. There
also is more public feeling on the subject in
Austria than in England The Austrian Gov
eminent holds that combinations to control
prices TO the detriment Of the public are Illegal,
ana refuses TO enforce any OF the contracts be-
tween mnoers Of the combines The firms in
terested DO not want to consolidate however
as the taxes on corporations in Austria are
Inuch higher than individuals and, owing
70 the strict Government supervision. they are
forced into more publicity and it is harder for
them 10 conceal their real earnings from the
pubic and from the tax gatherer.
IN England, says Professor jerks, It is gen.
orally believed that publicity is the only protec-
ton against aggressive Industrial com limitations
and many prominent men think that the Gov
ernInent can 60 no further than this. While
There IS comparatively little talk of trusts in
England, there is great deal Of discussion over
the abuses Of the corporation law and there Is
bill now before Parliament to remedy some
Of these defects

Why Sentries Go Mad.
London An&rcra.

Peering into darkness or seni-darkness
while on sentry duty has a tendency to
produce a distortion Of vision which makes
Of every bush an enemy, and this has in
many cases, even so recently as the Sou
dan campaigns, so affected the nerves of
men that they have had a resulting mono
mania as to eternally seeing various creep
ing objects.
One man in the Soidan saw every OBJ
ject of a vivid crimson for some months
after being on outpost duty during an
alarm, and he was only cured with great
difficulty. Gen. Hamley tells of sentries
who, on being relieved, yet stood stock still,
immovable, speechless and staring fixediy
into vacancy. In some cases, after the
man had been removed this sort of fixity
would remain for hours.
Even in peace time, there was a case
lately where a young sentry wounded the
guard by firing at it under the belief that
he saw ghost; and Lord Roberts, in one
Of his magazine articles. relates that even
the most reliable and truthful of soldiers,
on sentry often have the most fantastic
stories to tell, due to shattered nerves.
Great numbers of soldiers in war time have
committed suicide or accidentally shot
themselves. the cause often being that
they imagined they had let some one Green
past them, and had thus betrayed their
trust.
The National tribune., 1900-05-03

lends color to the reports that the Beers
contemplate the possibility of the burgher
forces being called upon to make a final
stand in that mountainous region.
Meanwhile the districts round johann
nesburg and Pretoria are being exten-
sively intrenched. The: tBoers. however,
knowing something of the experiences
of the Ladysniith, Kimberley. and Mafe-
king garrisons. are hardly likely to con-
sent 10 submit to be besieged in Pretoria.
This is probably the reason they are pro-
vlsioning the Lydenburg district.
CELEBRATING AT MAFEKING..
News comes that April II was ceIe-
brated as the end of the sixth month of
the siege by the Beers by terrific bonn
bardment that did much damage to the
buildings and killed some stock. The
British observed the day by inspecting the
horses about to be killed for food. Col.
Baden-Powell, who had been reported dead,
was alive and active as ever.
This news got through April so.
