a TRUsT-TARIFF OBJECT LESSON

A TRUST-TARIFF OBJECT LESSON.
The billion-dollar steel trust, which
would go out of business tomorrow,
nail up its factory doors, dismantle its
works throughout the country and drive
the millionaires connected with it into
the nearest poor house if deprived OF an
iota of tariff protection against its pau

ertheless has been doing little bust
f ness, on the quiet, even in free trade
Great Britain. If we may believe Lon
don advices, the United States Steel
Corporation already has begun to UNI
derbid the English steel manufacturers
in a fashion that stiles competition
right at the English factory door.
Staffordshire consumers are receiving
offers from London brokers on behalf
of the United States Steel Corporation
OF Bessemer billets in 1000 and 1000
ton lots at E5 per ton, delivered in the
English black country" At current
rates of exchange this means under
S24.50 per ton delivered in the heart of
the British manufacturing district.
The lowest present quotations in the
United States are $24 to s25 per ton at
Pittsburg.
The ruling English price for billets is
more than $2S per ton, so that the
American figure is 1871 per cent under
that of the British manufacturers.
What these figures suggest can be
more readily appreciated when the fact
is taken into consideration that the
rail freight from British seaboard points
TO several of the Industrial centres in
the interior of England is greater than
the combined rail and ocean freight
from Pittsburg to otner Western Eng
fish ports.
The cost of freight from American
mills to English purchasers is nearly $12
per ton, or almost one-half of the entire
price of the billets delivered to buyers
in the United Kingdom.
billion-dollar trust is selling rails in
England at net price of $3.50 a ton
half the price it charges American con-
sumers in the highly protected home
market at the factory doors in Pennsyl-

Hanna, across the river, and what
Hanna says goes, not only in State
matters, but in the larger affairs of the
nation. Although Mr.. Foraker limited
at small tariff revision in order to
perfect trade arrangements with the
countries of South America, Hanna
sounded the death knell of any radical
changes in the policy of the party when
he SAID: THE Republican party stands

John Philpot Curran, one of the wit. tiest lawyers who ever faced a court was once arguing a case before Lord Clare the Irish lord chancellor. Clare cherished cordial dislike for Curran, and in order to show his contempt for that gentleman affected to pay no at tention to the argument and devoted himself to fondling a mastiff, which he had brought with him to court. Pres. ently he stopped down ostentatiously to pat the dog Instantly Curran stopped speaking. Co on, MT.

GENERAL MIXUP

Monday morning is always busy day in the police court and it was es- pecially so this morning.
 Jack Wanza, a white man, and Quong Wah and Hon .Ou, two of the "oblique eyed fraternity, got tangled up together in the Main-street res taurant of the two latter named Sun- day afternoon. and they told their re speetive troubles to Judge Brown this morning. Wanza, so the Chinamen allege, owed the restaurant 25 cents for a lunch and refused to pay it. He attempted to leave the place, when the two proprietors jumped him and free-for-all fight resulted. All were well used up in the affray. Wanza was fined S10 and the trials of the Chinamen were postponed.
 This fight recalls a fatal shooting affray which occurred in the China mems restaurant some few years ago, when Wiley Goode, local citizen, in shooting at the Chinamen killed an innocent bystander. The Chinamen tackled Goode in the same manner and for the same reason that they did Wanza Goode served a number of years in the state penitentiary for the murder.

FCREFATHERS HONEST.
In Most Cases They Bought Their Hands
 from the Indians.


 Sometimes historians tell Us that Y was only Dutchnen and not English. men who bought the red mans land instead oi stealing it. Such state. ments have been made in New York. but if We pass on to Philadelphia we hear that it was only Quakers who were thus scrupulous, and when we arrive in Baltimore we learn that it was only Roman Catholics. In point of fact, it was the invariabe custom coast to purchase the lands on which they settled and the transaction was usually recorded in a deed to which the Sagamores affixed their marks. Nor was the affair such a moekery as it may at first thought seem to us, Kays writer in the Atlantic Monthly. The red man got what he sorely coy- eted, steel hatchets and grindstones, glass beads and rum, perhaps muskets and ammunition, while he was apt to reserve sundry rights of catching game and fish. A struggle was in- eyitable when the white mans agricul- ture encroached upon and exhausted the Indians hunting ground; bat other circumstances usually brought it on long before that point was reached. Tie age of iron superseded the stone age in America by the same law of progress that from time immemorial has been bearing humanity onward from brutal savagery to higher and more perfect life. In the course of it our forefathers certainly busted and dispossessed the red men, but they did nos 50 t in spirit of robbery.

REFUSED TO PAY. THE TURF EXCHANGE WILL TEST POOL LICENSE On the Grounds That Is Is Excessive -Propretors Arraigned in City
 Court.

Messrs. James M. White and J. D. Conant, local proprietors of the turf exchange in the rear of Lou l.. Owens saloon on West Barraque street were arrested this morning and brought into police court on a charge of vio- lating a city ordinance by failing to pay license fee of S50 for operating the turf exchange one week. The case was postponed until Tuesday.
 The license fee for running a turf exchange or pool room was recently increased from $25 to $50 per week. Many other city license fees were in- creased at the same time. but this is the first refusal of any of the parties affected to pay the new license fee. The proprietors of the exchange claim that the fee is excessive and they do not intend to pay it. The case will probably be appealed to the circuit court and will be taken to higher courts.
