SAYS TRUSTS ARE BLESSINGS
CARNEGIE DECLARES THAT
THEY BENEFIT POOR PEOPLE.
Should Hail the Great Combines as
Something Gained-Speaks of Pol
iticians.

New York, April 27-Andrew Car
aegie, in an essay in the Nav Century
entitled Popular Illusions About
Trusts, advocates great aggregations
OF capital as Of benefit both to rich
and poor. He says:
Every attempt to monopolize tba
manufacture of any staple article car
RES within its bosom the seeds of fail
ure. Long before we could legfslate
with much effect against trusts there
would be on necessity for legislation.
Ihe past proves this and the future is
10 confirm 1t. There should be nothing
but announcement for these vast az
gfegauons of capital for the manu-
1acture of staple articles.
As for the result being an in,.reasa
OF price to the consumer beyond a
brief period, there need be no fear. On
the contrary. the inevitable result of
these agSregations is finally and Der
manently to give to the conslInoer.
cheaper articles than would have been
otherwise possible to obtain. for c.p-
ital is stimulated by the high profits
OF the trust for season to embark
against It.
The result is very soon a capacity
of production beyond the wants of the
consumer, and as the new works erect
ed are OF the most improved pattern
and capable of producing chea Del. than
the old works, the vulnerable trusts
are compelled TO buy and capitalize al
two or three times their cost. There is
thus no danger ahead to the cOmmun-
lty from trusts, nor any cause for
fear
Competition in all departments of
human activity is not to be suppressed
already the ghosts of numerous de-
parted trusts which aimed at monop-
oles have marched across the stage
OF human affairs, each pointing to its
1atai wound inflicted by that grea. cor
receive. competition. The only people
who have reason to fear trusts are
those who trust them.
We conclude that this overpowering.
irresistible tendency toward aggrega-
ton of capital and increase of size in
every branch of product cannot be ar
rested or even greatly impeded and
that instead Of attempting to re-
strict either, we should hail every in
crease as something gained. not for
the few rich. but for the millions of
poor, seeing that the law is salutary
working for good and not for evil.
Every enlargement is an improve
ment, step BIZ step. upon what has
preceded. It does not tend to make
the rich poorer, but it does tend to
make the poor richer in the possession

Atlanta, Ga, April 27.-The action of

San Juan, Porto Rico, April 27.-The
United States steamship Dolphin, bear
ing Mr. Charles Albert Allen, the newly
appointed civil governor of Porto Rico,
dropped anchor off San Juan at 10
O'Clock this morning as also did the
cruiser New York. the United States
battleship Texas and the United States
gunTboat Machiaa. The New York re-
manned outside the tarbor.
Governor Davis, military governor,
Visited Mr.. Allen on board the Dolphin
at 1870 A detachment of seventy-five
insular police and four companies of
the Porto Rican regiment, with a band,
were drawn. up on the wharf. The Dol
phin's launch, carrying Mr.. Allen and
his family. with General Davis and
Lieutenant Parker, the latter's aide,
left the Dolphin promptly at noon, the
Texas and Dolphin firing a salute Of
seventeen guns Meanwhile the band
played ''Bormquen," the Porto Rican
national air, and the steamers lying in
the harbor kept up a continuous whist
liItg until the launch reached the land
ing.
Mr.. Allen ran quickly up the steps
and the families of General Davis and
the new civil governor were introduced
TO each other. A crowd of 5000 looked
ID
police and troops marched past at port
arms. Mr., Allen doffing his hat He
then entered the carriage that was in
waiting and drove to the executive
mansion, preceded by troops and fol-
lowed by squads of police He con-
stantly raised his hat to the throng that
lined the sidewalks.
In Ordinary Costume.
Mr. Alien took breakfast with Gen
eral Davis and with his family will re-
main as the guest of General Davis in
definitely He landed in an ordinary
costume, straw hat, blue coat and duck
trousers, and q wave of eXclamations
followed the carriage
1t cannot be the governor" said one.
That's not the new governor" said
another
Not that man in the straw hat, sure
", said another
The simplicity Of the costume and of
the general details of the reception took
Porto Rico by surprise and they could
scarcely realize that they looked upon
the new governor. Mr.. Allen is the first
governor of Porto Rico TO arrive in any,
thing less conspicuous than a gorgeous
uniform covered. with gold lace and
similar trappings.
Few representative citizens were
present at the landing, the throng be-
ing composed largely of middle-class
people Nor was there any attempt to
decorate the buildings, or nothing to
speak Of, and generally the reception
was notably unenthuSiasuc. One Porto
Rlcan explained the lack of popular
demonstrativeness by saying that the
people were dissatisfied to find that the
civil government would cot actually be
in full force on May l, as they had
hoped.
IN the course of a brief interview Mr..
Allen eontradicted the report that he
would return TO the United States, after
a conference with General Davis He
desires to settle the details of the new
regime as soon as possible, and will re-
main here comforting with General Da-
VS. pending the arrival of che new ap-
pOintees.
