PRESIDENT AND TRUSTS

The sound sense in President Roose-
velt's exposition OF the trust question,
as given in the speech at Providence,
must be appreciated by all who are not
blinded by judice-or poltics-when
they discuss this important subject. No
one undertakes to deny that there are
very serious evils connected with the
growth of the great corporations, but
everyone who has studied the matter
at all must acknowledge that much
good has followed the organization of
these concerns.
The fact is that the commercial life
Of the country is changing; new ways
of doing business are supplanting the
old in response to economic demands.
The combination of capital is natural
movement which cannot be stayed.
This being So, the attention of legisla-
lures and of congress should be direct
ed, not to preventing the combinations,
but to regulating them. The pulling
down of what is becoming, if it is not
already, the most important part of our
industrial frame, would demolish the
whole structure. The worthy would
perish with the unworthy, rs the presi-
dent pointed out, and the country
would experience such a general de-
preston that years would be required
in which to recover.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Salt Railroad to Be Built Out Of
Hutchinson.
Connects Salt Town With Rock
Island and Frisco.
KANSANS OWN STOCK.
Chicago Capitalists Are Putting
Up Bulk of Money.
Proposed Road Will Be Nearly
so Miles Long.

Hutchinson, Kan, July 1.-THE Hutch
inson & Arkansas River Railway COM
pany was chartered in Topeka last
week. Its capital stock is $4,000 and 1t
is incorporated for the purpose of
building a road from Hutchinson to
Kechi in Sedgwick county. This would
give this city the long desired connec-
ton with the Frisco railroad and also
with the Fort Worth branch of the Rock
Island railroad.
The incorporators and directors of
the company are J. P. Tracy, r. w
Barnes and Arthur Griffin of Chicago;
Frederick c. Eakman. Riverside; J.
c. Baddelly, Frank Vincent, c. Phil
lips and w. Y. Morgan, Hutchinson.
Judging from the Hutchinson directors
of the road, the line is probably more
in the interest of the salt industry of
this city than of any railroad.
However, the road would give the
long desired outlet to the Frisco and
also connection with the Rock Island
Fort Worth line. Senator Frank Vim
cent of this city filed the incorporation
1874 of the 800 shares of stock.
Senator Vincent is not in the city
and the real purpose of the incorpora-
ton could not be learned. If one will
that the proposed new line will inter-
sect the ST Louis & San Francisco rail-
road at Patterson, a small station IN
Harvey county. From this point to Val
ley Center the Frisco line would either
have to be leased or paralleled. From
Valley Center to Kechi on the Rock
Islands Fort Worth line it is only eight
miles.
The capital stock is ample for the
construction of the road, as it lies along
the north bank of the river and there
are no large streams to bridge. Wheth-
er the road is eventually acquired by
either the Frisco or the Rock Island it
is a practicable road and will be OF
great benefit to Hutchinson and espec-
tally to its salt industry, as it VIII give
two more outlets for the product of the
local plants. The line will be nearly
so miles long.

MEET IN NEW YORK.
St Louis Terminal Questions Will Be
Discussed by Magnates.

st Louis, Mo-. July 1T is probable
that the Wabash-Rock Island-Terminal
affairs will be adjusted in New York. A
conference is being arranged in that city
between President Ramsey, of the Wa
bash, who is now at Southampton. L. l.;
President Julius S. Walsh, of the Termin-
al association; President George Gould, of
the Missouri Pacific, and President Leeds,
OF the Rock Island. President Leeds hav-
ing given three days to thorough inspec-
ton of the Terminal situation here, is
now prepared to act upon all the problems
which confronted the Rock Island in es-
tabltshing its ST. Louis terminals. Its in
dependent plans for a North End freight
inlet have been already made known. The
Rock Island, however will avail itself of
all the Terminal associations facilities
likewise, and its passenger trains from
Kansas City and the west will enter the
Union Station. The West End track sit
uation is not yet cleared up, and in that
connection the Worlds Fair terminal mat
tiers yet remain to be settled.
AS SO many of the chief executives
of the st. Louis lines at this time in
the east, it was deemed advisable to call
a conference in New York city, with the
view of bringing about settlement of all
questions as speedily possible.

FRAUDULENT TABLETS.
Iron the London Times.1

Mr.. Algernon Ashton writes from A
Hamilton Gardens, ST. Johns Wood: up
to midsummer last year there stood q
house in Gerard street bearing a So
ciety of Arts tablet, with the inscription:
John Dryden, poet, lived here. Born 1881
died 1900 This memorable building. one
of London'S most cherished literary land
marks. was then ruthlessly demolished.
and a hideous and wanton act of vandal-
ism thereby committed, as the house was
a handsome and strongly built one, show
ing sign of decay whatever. A few
days ago + happened to be passing down
Gerard street again, when to my. utmost
surprise and disgust, 1 noticed that the
site of Drydens old dwelling house not
only there erected a jerry-built mon
strosity, but the same old memorial tablet
affixed on to the brand new wall. This is,
unhappily, not the only instance of a
house bearing tablet stating that a GER
tain great man lived there when he never
did live there, the fraudulent tablets
to Hogarth in Leicester square, to Turner
in Queen Anne street, Marylebone, and
to Byron in Holes streets amply testify
1t is insane practice and ought to be
stopped forthwith, as it only tends to en-
tirely mislead future generations, who will
naturally believe these houses to be the
actual historical ones"
