This lengthy preamble leads me to an
incident which occurred many years ago
when Mr. Jones visited Savannah. l was
introduced to him by Glenn Saussy, and
was greatly impressed by his kind and
gentle manner. / remarked:
Mr.. Jones, it appears to me you have
a wide field here to work upon"
why do you say so?" said Mr.. Jones.

aUITMANITEs WE'RE EASY.

Quitman Advertiser: Barnum said that
the American people liked to be hum
plugged, and the assertion was verified on
the streets of Quitman recently when a
pair of as slick fakirs as we have seen in
some time unloaded on a number of peo-
pie large quantity of corn salve and
electric belts. He commenced by SELL
ing his corn salve for % cents. and after
selling few packages he gave to those
who had bought, their money back and
Is cents besides. He then offered for
sale what he called his IS electric belt
for 81, and upon each sale he wrapped the
silver dollar in a one dollar bill and plac-
ed II in a hat and requested that the
customer remain there for a few min
utes. and all who bought remained, think
ing of course that he was going to give
them their dollar back and along with 1t
the 81 bill. So great was their faith that
some bought as many as four belts. After
he sold seventy-five or more, he then
asked all those who had bought to come
up close to him and then asked them il
they were satisfied with the belt for one
dollar. They answered In the affirmative
and he said that he was satisfied with
the dollar and began selling something
else. The belts are worthless.

first asked for by the Wheeling & Steu-
benville Traction Co. but at the meeting
one week ago was postponed until to-day,
and was again put off for two weeks.
The arguments for and against this fran
chise were quite warm. but the arguments
of the Ohio Rapid TRANSIT Co. seemed to
a the most weight with the commits
sioners, as they asked for -pestponement.

CIDEs TO SUE III STEEL

WASHINGTON. Aug. 12.-The joint
committee of the American Antitrust
League and District Assembly No, &c.
OF the Knights OF Labor. held another
meeting tonight to consider the ques-
ton of bringing legal action against the
United States Steel Corporation. The
members say they are satisfied. after
conferences by telegraph and by letter
with Hon. Frank S. Monnett, of Ohio.
and with local attorneys, that there ia
ample evidence available for a success

special committee viii be appointed to
present the matter to Attorney General
Knox. with a plea that he institute pro-
ceedlngs against the trust, under the
Sherman act. IL these efforts fail, re-
course will be had to mandamus or
other proceedings TO attain the object
sought,
The committee will cooperate with
individuals and associations In other

contribution of $500 toward defraying

COLUMBUS. o., Aug. 12.-It was
learned to-day that Attorney General
Sheets will bring suit against the United
States Steel Corporation under the Val
entine trust law, regardless of any steps
the company may take to comply with
the law governing corporations doing
business in the State. The attorney
general declined to make public the plan

at the Office of the Secretary Of State.
however. that notices would be sent to
the United States Steel Corporation not
later than Thursday, calling attention
to the fact that 1t has failed to COM
ply with the law requiring foreign cor
porations to file certain reports with the
State officers and TO pay the tax of
one-tenth of one per cent. on the pro-
portion of its capital stock used in Ohio.
1t Is believed that the reply to this
notice will be referred to the attorney
general and that 1t will be used as the
basis for action. The attorney general
stated to-day that he is acting n full
accord with the Secretary of State. 1t Is
said the suit against the United States
Steel Corporation will be very similar
to the one filed against the Standard OH
Company by Attorney General Watson
some years ago.
