MORGAN HAS A PLAN.
Finds Precedent in Recent Enactment

Finds Precedent in Recent Enactment
of OIeo Law for Suppression Of
s}a Trusts by Taxation. a8
Washington, Sept. 13.-Genera1 ohm
T. Morgan, United States senator from
Alabama, has written a letter, in which
he emphatically declares that a law to
tax trusts Is within the power OF con-
gress and will suppress the evil. In
his letter General Morgan says:
II think it Is admitted on all sides
that the power Of congress 10 levy tax
es extends to every description OF pro-
,erty that is not exempted by the char
acter Of it's ownership. If it belongs TO
a state or to the federal government, OF
Is ar fundamentally OF such govern
ment, it is exempt from taxation, but
all kinds of property not so exempted
are subject to taxation by act Of con-
gress. .
THE manufacture and sale OF oIeo-
margarine has been suppressed virtual
ly n Intentionally by the act Of com
gress, n that al law has been sus-
tanned by he supreme court. II the
corporations can be controlled by law,
SO that such combinations will be Sc
verely checked, If not prohibited the
public evil will disappear. Therefore
the remedy by taxation will be effec-
tual for the protection OF the people,
If it is limited to corporations.
1.-The plan I would suggest, III addi-
ton to the Sherman law, Is a graduated
tax on all business corporations, with
an exemption, in whole or in part, as
TO such as can establish to the satis-
faction of the government that they are
not engaged in any; agreements or
combinations that are intended to con
troll the prices or the cost of Transport
tatton of commodities that are OF the
description that enter into domestic or

HAS Been GIVEN Up.
Captain Andrews, Famous for
Ocean Trips in a Skiff, Be-
lieved to Be Lost.

Boston, Sept. 13,-Captain Andrews,
who twice crossed the Atlantic in a
l5-foot cookie shell, has been pro-
nounced legally dead by the Massa-
chusetts, courts. Letters Of administra-
ton upon his estate have been granted
to his son.
Andrews sailed October 6 last from
Atlantic City with his BRIDE, to whom
he had been married in the presence
of 5000 people. The boat was sighted
only once, about a week after 1t had
sailed.
Captain Andrews initial trip was made
from Atlantic City, N. j., to Bayonne,
France, in a 15-foot boat which was
painted black and named 1.-THE Dark Sc
cret." The feat attracted wide attention,
n was afterward used as the basis of a
melodrama in which the captain appeared.
Later he made a second trip In q boat
named "Sapolto," a large fee being paid
him by Elnoch Morgan's Sons, proprietors
OF g. washing compound of that name.
On these two trips he was alone, save
for a large Newfoundland dog.
Many efforts were made to dissuade him
from the idea OF having his bride accom-
pany him on the trip last October, but the
captain laughed at remonstrance.

ARE SCARED
More St. Louis Aldermen Are
Anxious to Turn States
Evidence.

St. Louis, Sept. 15.-The members of
the doodle combine" are terror strick-
en-. John X. Murrell's brother has Of
fered to follow suit and turn states
evidence. He was taken before Circuit
Attorney Folk, where he offered to
turn states evidence. He was anxious
to confess, and said he would hide
not needed as a witness for the prose-
cution. r ~. -
Charles Kelly, the house of delegates
member who distributed the $4,000
lighting bill Doodle among the Com
bine," is still in hiding, but is known to
be- in st. Louis. His evidence is need
ed by the state to convict the men who
gave the bride and he will be given a
chance to escape the penitentiary If he
chooses to take it.
Joseph w. Folk, the circuit attorney of
st. Louis, has made a name for himself
throughout the United States since he took
office in November, 1900. He has UNI
earthed the corruption in the city of st.
Louis that was destroying the workings
given and freely taken by a Combine Of
nineteen members of the house Of dele
gates, the lower house of the city's mu-
nicipal government. The two big scan
dals were the sale Of street car franchises
and lighting franchises.
Mr.. Folk took his reputation and his life
in his hand. He brought before the grand
jury sufficient evidence to indict such
men as ED Butler and r. M. Snyder,
the millionaire banker of Kansas City
and New York. st. Louis aldermen fled
the city and took refuge in Mexico Sew
eral perjurers and bribers were sent to
prison for short terms. Then Folk in
duced Murrell, a membe of the house Of
delegates, to return to St. Louis from
Mexico and tell the entire story. Murrell
had Aed with Kratz, another member who
is still there. This combine SO Mr.. Folk
declares, was bound by an oath which
made death the penalty for treachery to
it's members. Had Folks efforts failed,
have assassinated his political career.
Now it Is a case Of prison or freedom to
them. -. - y ...a.- -, u. .E-.-. u -

Weather Influenced Trading.

Chicago, Sept. 12.-Grain spectators
were ruled by the weather at the OPEN
Ing today. Killing frosts were report
Led in the Dakotas, Minnesota, Iowa and
Nebraska, and heavy frosts in south
ern Kansas. Rains fell in Missouri,
Illinois and Ohio valley. These condi-
tions all worked against maturing
corn, and as a result higher prices
ruled at the start. Factors, however,
were almost lost sight of in the big
commission house trade, thai was the
result Of frost talk. -
Much of the early fear from frosts
was dissipated as the session advanced
and a fair liquidation resulted.
