Trust Trading Abroad

American manufacturers last year
sold in foreign markets $4,000, 900 OF
their products. 1t is not idiotic to say
that they can be crushed" in their

world? Should British iron and steel
makers undertake to form a trust like
our steel corporation and raise prices
to the high figures which give our
trust profits of over $4,000 900 a
year, Germany and every other steel
making country in Europe would senc

Unclaimed Estates.

Cleveland's Sundays Plain Dealer
under the head of Mythical Unclaimed
Estates" has the following to say re-
garding the matter:
The letter from one of the officials
Of the bank of England, made public
by Ambassador Choate through the
state department, concerning the al.
legged Whitaker estate lying in the
bank at London awaiting claimants
shows that the Whitaker heirs" arc
still being worked" by someone who
gets contributions from them by repre-
senting that the unclaimed estate
has a value of millions, and that the
agent" can secure 1t for the heirs
IL they furnish funds for the necessary
legal formalities. The bank official
says the total amount remaining un-
claimed In the bank is but a poor E100,
or less than $500. That divided among
the Whitakers and Whittakers who
imagine themselves heirs to the "es-
tate" might allow them "a. nickel
apiece, provided there were no de-
ductions for necessary expenses" As
the contributions for expenses have az
ready exceeded many times the amount
of the entire estate" the chance OIL
a 5-cent dividend is exceedingly small.
At frequent recurring intervals the
American ambassador at London. or
Paris, or Madrid finds 1t necessary to
issue warning to gullible Americans
against the unclaimed estate" swindle,
which sometimes takes one name and
then. another, but the warnings 20 uu-
needed. Every new fake has its own
crop of dupes awaiting its coming. The
pity Of it is that those who can least
afford to waste their small means are
the most easily taken in with tale
of great fortune belonging to them
and to be secured at comparatively
trifiing expense. Even when the fail
ure to recover is realized. the existence
of the estate" is still believed, and the
disappointed heir" insists that some
one has wrongfully secured it, or that
the officials of the bank or court have
schemed to get 1t themselves.

A "Jay" After All.

A "Jay" After All.
AS The Chronicle ventured to proph-
esy, the prize fight promoter who
jaurtily defied the governor of Ken
tucky is now sitting up sorrowfully
and wondering what hit him. He is
out Of pocket to the very considerable
extent and his prestige has gone glim-
mering.
+, Yet anyone but prize fight pro-
noter could have foretold the result
from the first. There never can be a
question as to the outcome or a con-
fict between the governor of state
and a gang Of plug uglies.
The fact that the pugiiistic manag-
ers refuse to recognize this truth mere
ly shows that the so-called sport
is really dull fellow after all. He is
popularity credited with the possession
of much worldly wisdom, yet he will
undertake to bluff governor when he
might as we'll try to butt down a stone
wall.
The conclusion is that the sport"
is good deal of humDug He af-
fects great sapiency when he really
does not know enough to go in when
1t raips. He is "iay" when he en-
counters people of ordinary intelli-
gence.-Chicago Chronicle.

Winter Outdoor swimmers in Boston

No matter what the temperature Of
the Atlantic ocean, or how fun Boston
harbor be of ice, the faithful few who
for years have bathed right through the
calendar at L street go to the city bath
house for their dip and after-warming
in their glass sunhouse on the beach.
Yesterday ten bathers took the plunge
in water thirty-fiye degrees above zero,
and it is a good average number for
any week day of the winter season. A
pleasant Sunday or holiday, Of course,
brings crowds to the beach; as many as
forty, for instance, went in last Sunday.
This represents pretty wen the winter

gian hares at his country home. He says
he has been seriously annoyed by the
incursions of dogs which have broken
into the inclosure and killed the hares.
Dog owners have missed their CANNES

them dead, without knowing who shot
them until a watch was set and it Is
said the rector was found to be the
party. He was released on his own
recognizance for a hearing tomorrow.
