Merry LEGISLATORS.

The Republican, platform contained
anevasive declaration against trusts.
Some Republicans, more imuitive,
and probably patriotic than their
leaders, are awakening to the iact
that the future welfare Of this coun-
try requires that restrictions be
thrown around these organizations.
Also that the veal Of it party de-
mands compliance with their prom
Uses. Hence the movement which has
been inaugurated by Representative
Babcock, OF. Wisconsin, a member of
the Ways and Means committee This
gentleman, who has also been for
several years chairman oithe Repub-
lican Congressional Campaign Com
mittee. has introduced a bill in Con
gress to deprive then new steel trust of
tariffprOtection against foreign com

products upon the free list. 1t abOl-
ishes the duty of four dollars a ton
on pig iron, OF twelve dollars a ton
on bar iron. OF sixteen dollars a ton
on round iron. and also the various
imposts on structural iron, sheet
iron. and such Ike. In short itpiaces

THE BIG JOKE ON xuSsY'S MEN.
Those who Expect Fortune May be Dis
appointed.

The published story that Baron Won
Massow. distinguished general in the
German army, who served with Mosby's
men during the Civil War, had in his
will bequeathed Misfortune OF 81, 900, OOO
to the survivors of that noble band Of
warriors, who gave the Federals so much
trouble on the northern border OF Vir-
ginia, seems to have been all joke.
Two of "Mosby's men" in New York
as n gentleman who knows writes a
friend. here, were introduced to a news
paper man and they told him the story
that has been so widely published. He
printed it the next day. 1t was sent to
other papers. "Mosby's men" very sud
denly became quite numerous. One of
them residing in Richmond has received
on an average of four or five letters n
day from persons claiming to havefOught
under Colonel Mosby, asking information
as to the alleged bequest.
The German Consul-General in New
York states that he knows nothing of
any bequest by Baron Won Massow to
Mosby's men"

he had no business having anything to

position in regard to the Employers
