NO SURE FOR TRUSTS
President Roosevelt Against a Re.
duction of the Tariff.
In Speech at Cincinnati He Said That Any
Change In Present Schedule Would
Be Detrimental to Bust-
ness Interests.

Cincinnati, Sept %. President
Roosevelt delivered his antitrust
speech here that has been awaited
anXiously. Music hall was crowded
to the doors and there were still peo-
pie who couldn't get inside. Not only
do Mr.. Roosevelt talk against tariff
reduction, but he attempted to prove
that reductions in tariff would be
detrimental to all business and would
not cure the evils of the trusts. He
said there is only one way to deal
with the trust question, and that is
to curb the evils with legislation.
This legislation, he said, too, must
be careful, cautious legislation, that
will not bring about panic in fnan-
cial conditions. President Roose-
velt's address lasted an hour. He
frequently stopped to make local
comments and applications of points
in his manuscript, which he held in
his hand. At the conclusion of his
address he was compelled to remain
on the platform some time in re-
Spouse to demonstrations, and the
band played several pieces after he
had concluded his address, the audi
ence meantime waving handkerchiefs
and hats and cheering vociferously.
Speaking of the relation of the trusts
to the tariff, he said:
1.-The trusts can be damaged by
depriving them of the benefits of a
protective tariff, only on condition
of damaging all their smaller COM
petitors, and all the wage-workers
employed il the industry. This point
is very important and it is desirable
to avoid and save willful misunder-
standing. My point is that changes
in the tariff would have little appre-
ciable effect on the trusts save as
they shared in the general harm or
good proceeding from such changes.
No tariff change would help one of
our smaller corporations, or one of
our private individuals in business,
still less one of our wage-workers as
against a large corporation in the
same business; on the contrary, if it
bore heavily on the large corpora
ton it would inevitably be felt still
more by that corporations weaker
rivals, while any injurious result
would of necessity be shared by both
the employer and employed in the
business concerned. The immediate
introduction of substantial free trade
in all articles maintained by trusts,
that is, by the largest and most sue
cessful corporations, would not affect
some of the most powerful of our
business combinations in the least,
save by the damage done to the gen.
eral business welfare of the coun-
try; others would undoubtedly be
seriously affected, but much less SO
than their weaker rivals, while the
loss would be divided between the
capitalists and the laborers; and
after the years of panic and distress
had been lived through and some re-
turn to prosperity had occurred,
even though all were on a lower
plane of prosperity than before, the
relative difference between the trusts
and their rivals would remain as
marked as ever"

LEFT ALL TO CHARITY.
VIII OF W. 9. Stratton Bequeashs Only
$4,000 Co HIS Son, from Whom
He Was Estranged.

Colorado Springs, Col, Sept. "a
The will of the late w. S. Stratton
leaves 100000 to build the Myron
Stratton home for sick persons in
this city and bequeaths the residue
of his estate, after being turned into
cash, to the maintenance of the home.
The estate is valued at nearly $780,
100000. The will leaves only $4,000
to his son, j. Harry Stratton, OF
Tulon, Ill, Gin case he does not con-
test or cause to be contested this
will" This son has lived away from
the father ever since he was born.
Concerning him there has been much
speculation, as Mr.. w. S. Stratton
was divorced from his wife immedi-
ately after the birth of the boy. The
son visited the father but two or
three times in his life, and arrived
in this city only after the death OF
the multi-millionaire.

Miss Dickenson's Story.

New York, Sept. 23.-The most as
tonishing evidence has been discov-
cred tending to show that the kill
ing of Mrs. Anna Nelson Pulitzer
was religious murder" done by a
Mormon in accordance with the doc
trine of "blood atonement," which,
despite energetic denials, Miss Eliza
beth Dickinson says is still a part
of the living creed. Miss Dickinson
believes Mrs. Pulitzer was Mormon
who deserted the church. She de-
clares that she herself fed for her
life and for months lived in fear of
death because she renowned the
creed.
