JULES SIEGFRLED TALKS
TELLS OF THE INDUSTRIAL EyPAN-
SION IN THE UNITED STATES,
But Says Europeans should Not BE
Alarmed, for Some Trusts Are In
fated Beyond Paying Basis.

PARIS, July 12.-Senator Jules Siegfried,
the former minister of commerce. has ar
rived here from his American tour. In an
interview to-day NJ. Siegfried paid a glow
ing tribute to the immense commercial and
industrial expansion of the United States,
which, he said. would be further increased
by the system of combinations Neverthe-
less, he added, the people of Europe must
not allow themselves to be too easily daz-
zled or frightened. He pointed to a we'll
known trust as an example of capital in
hated to twice or treble the cost of the
combined establishments. and he ques-
toned whether further dividends could be
paid on such inflated capital.
Americans" the senator said, "have
changed in recent years. and the idea of
treaties of m is now daily gaining
ground. / met with considerable sympathy
In favor of a more economic policy. France
must take into consideration the amour
propre of the United States, which she had
overlooked at the time of the Hispano-
American war" Senator Siegfried also re-
ferred to the great pleasure he had de-
rived from his reception in Canada.

derson and Laureate in the fifth race, the
former getting the verdict. She was
backed from 80 to l to 10 TO /. Abe Frank,
the valuable two-year-old which ran away
on Thursday, was reported TO be doing
well. His owner, G.. c. Bennett. thinks the
colt may not have been seriously injured.

Kentucky Middle ran away and carried
Jockey Dawson into the fence, hurting him
so badly that j. Martin had TO be substi-
tuted. Winners in order: Headwater. s to

INDIANA CORN CROP.
Rain aust Come Within N Few Days
to Save IL.

The large corn crop of Indiana is threat
ened by the continued dry weather. In the
early spring the corn was slow in getting
started owing to the cold, wet weather.
For a period the corn grew amazingly, but
the long spell OF dry weather has now
caused it to droop. Reports from the
Board Of Trade and from large centers
where corn Is planted say that the corn
cannot go more than ten more days with
out rain and the great yield come out un-
impaired. The weather officials do not hold
out any hope for immediate rain. and the
condition of the corn is causing much APP
prehension. The crop this year is about
the same as that Of last year. when 1t was
the largest in the States history. With
favorable weather for a few days. with
occasional rains. the yield might surpass
the record OF last year.
