The biggest thing yet in the trust line
in this era Of gigantic money combina-
tions, is proposed monster corporation
with the enormous SUM of ten billion dol
lars capital-room for oceans of watered
stock. The concern is projected by Pitts
burg capitalists and application for a
charter has been made in Arizona, under
the name of the International Construc-
ton and Development Company. Its
purpose is to engage in the manufacture
of steel of all kinds, mine copper, gold,
silver and coal, raise sugar and refine it,
build ships, raise, kill and sell live stock,
raise and evaporate tropical fruit, COLOMBO
different parts of the new possessions OF
the United States, handle lumber from its
own preserves and deal in fire clay,
operating il the United States, Mexico,
Cuba and Porto Rico.
This organized capital tendency of the
present day is bound to bring the great
majority of the toilers to condition OF
absolute wage slavery, and that too at no
very distant day, unless restraining in
fuence of government supervision is
brought to bear upon it.

TEXAS OIL NEWS
A Brewery Burns Beaumont Oil.

The big brewery at San Antonio, Texas,
has equipped three big boilers with oil
burners and is now burning Beaumont oil
at saving Of so per cent from coal cost.
That shows the growing demand for crude
oil.
Last week the great hustle was on to
build pipe lines and oil tanks for storage.
There are now IL wells pouring out oil at
a tremendous rate, and the main trouble
with the oil men is to provide fer storage
and economical delivery.
Aside from the National Oil & Pipe line
well that came in Tuesday there are FIVE
gushers due this week. We are making
good progress on the Saratoga we'll, but it
is not expected to come in now until about
the middle of August.
The Saratoga Company has a large
leasehold at Sour Lake and is interested
in the recent resumption of work on the
Guffey well there that showed consider
able oil few weeks ago. After the oil
was demonstrated great excitement fol-
lowed and a dispute arose over the titles
This has now been cleared up, and 1t is
probable that Sour Lake may prove al
most as interesting field as did Spindle
Top Hill.
Aside from the 20 speculative tracts
upon which the Saratoga Oil and Pipeline
Company holds leases it owns in fee sim
pie the site of the Saratoga we'll in block
3S, Spindle Hop Heights. This well is
now down nearly 600 feet and promises to
be big gusher. Stock is still selling at
80 cents (par value 81, but an advance is
contemplated soon. Write for particulars

IN iron And STEEL
Power of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation Overrated.
SHEET AND TIN PLATE SHORTAGE
Considerable Tonnage Placed in
Structural Material-Prices
Continue Firm.

New York, July 25.-The Iron Age, in
its issue to-day SAYS:
The strike in the rolling mills has not de-
yeloped any special features during the week.
and the feeling in the trade is that the power
of the Amalgamated Association has been
generally overrated From a high source
comes the statement that the United States
Steel corporation will wait until it's men in
non-union mills get ready to go to work,
and then plant after plant will be opened
which does not seem likely for some weeks
The decline in the product of the finished
mills will soon lead to the closing down of
some OF the steel plants, and to either bank
ing OF furnaces or to the accumulation Of pig
iron. The longer this condition lasts the
greater will be the necessity for the mer-
chant furnaces that sell to the United States
Steel corporation to look for an outlet In
other directions. The Ohio Steel company's
plant at Youngstown has been put on steel
rails. so that it can take up the work OF
South Chicago, should any trouble arise
there. This, Of course, reduces the billet sup
ply. The shortage Of sheets and tin plate
has already made itself felt. and jobbers'
stocks are being drawn on heavily all over
the country, a premium being secured. There
is decidedly irmer feeling in iron bars and
the recent weakness in steel bars has dis
appeared. The pig-iron situation is puzzling
Statistically the position continues favorable
but there is a feeling of uncertainty and
weakness cropping up in different places.
This week business has been light all over
the country. We note a sale of $1,000 tons of
basic iron in the Philadelphia district.
Quite good deal Of tonnage has been
placed in structural material The Ameri-
can Bridge company has taken upward of
$1,000 tons of brick work, including 5000 tons
for coal road, 2,4O0 tons for track eleva-
ton at Newark, N. j., 2,15O tons for a west
ern road and 1,S25 tons for a Chicago lift
bridge. In New York 5000 tons have been
contracted for for a number of buildings,
and in other quarters good round lots have
been placed. We note also 1.175 tons for
buildings for the imperial navy of Japan. AS
yet all branches Of the iron industry con-
tinue exceedingly we'll employed, and, while
occasionally a slight weakness develops To-
cally. prices continue firm. But conserva-
tive men in the trade are alert to note any
sign of the effect of the crop disappointment,
which must tell to some extent upon the
consumption Of the next year. With our
enormous output, we cannot afford to under
go much curtailing in that direction. feel
ing of resentment is developing among some
Of the large copper interests at the lack of
cooperation on the part of leading lake pro-
ducers. The latter, it is claimed are not
doing their share in carrying stock of cop
per for the manufacturers, but are marketing
their product by Ats and starts quite ire

COMPETITION IN WOOL
THE TRUST TURNS ON 1Ts RIVALS
icy Reported to Have Been
Adopted.


New York, July 25.-In the opinion
of the conservative houses in the wooden
business in this city, the wool trust has
entered upon the policy of cut-throat
competition against its rivals The trust
has just made a general reduction of
prices varying from to 25 per cent on
its lines of goods, and nothing in recent
years has so startled Worth street in
New York and Federal street in Boston,
the great wool markets of the United
States.
Tariff conditions are the same as they
were last year. There has been no mate
rial reduction lin the price of wool, and
the raw material is even now on the
up grade in price. No improvements
in manufacture have been introduced
that would affect prices SO crit
ically. Hence the complete unexpected
ness Of the trusts move. 1t was under
stood at the close of yesterdays business
that about 100000 yards of these staple
cloths have been sold since Monday
enough to make about 2,000,0 suits OF
mems clothes. AS a result of the wholesale
reduction in prices of the trust tremen-
dous orders have been withdrawn from
competing manufactures and transferred
to the trust.

with stomach or catarrhal troubles. /"
r. w. Wilcox.
All over this country are hundreds of
people who are suffering from catarrh
of the stomach who are wasting precious
time, and enduring needless suffering.
The remedies they try only temporarily
palliate the distress, but never effect a
cure. Remedies for dyspepsia have null
t1plied so rapidly that they are becoming
as numerous as the leaves of the forest
and yet dyspepsia continues to flourish
in spite of them all. This is due to the
fact that the cause of dyspepsia is not
recognized as catarrh.
If there is a remedy in the whole range
of medicinal preparations that is in every
particular adapted to dyspepsia, that rem
edy is Peruna. This remedy is well nigh
invincible in these cases.
Dr. Hartman, President of The Hart
man Sanitarium, Columbus, O., says:
in my large practice and correspon-
dence l have yet to learn of a single case
of atomic dyspepsia which has not either
been greatly benefited or cured by Pc
runa.''
No one suffering with eatarrh Of the
stomach or dyspepsia, however slight, can
be we'll or happy. 1t is the cause of so
many distressing symptoms that 1t is a
most dreaded disease Peruna acts imme-
diately on the seat of the trouble, the in
famed mucous membranes lining the
stomach and a lasting cure is effected.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he will be
pleased to give you his valuable advice
