A VERDICT ON TRUSTS
What Industrial Germany Sees in
Them, .-s

Berlin, Oct. 10.-The question of com
bines and cartels was discussed at the an
nual meeting Of the Bund der Industriel-
len, an association representing the politi-
cal and commercial counterpoise to the
agrarians. The bund finally adopted the
following resolution: Eytr =.
The bund in trusts the natural step in
the development of industry. They appear to
be called on to adapt production to demand,
and to prevent useless competition, which is u.s.
ually accompanied by the deterioration Of COM
modities. The economic advantages, therefore,
cannot be denied, 80 long they don't tend to
injure the consumers dependent upon them, and
so far as they regulate production with view
to the maintenance of fair prices, diminish the
cost Of production and improve methods Of In
dustry. .Es as @55E
AS regards industries, however, which are
working raw materials, and which are at
the mercy Of trusts In raw stuffs, the producers
see in the present overgrowth OF the latter an
evil calling for measures which will assure an
economic counterpoise.
The above resolution may be taken as
the verdict Of Industrial Germany on
trusts.

GEN. THOS. STEW ART WON
Minnesota G. A. r. People Played
a Loser in Yesterdays
Voting.

Washington, Oct. 1O.-The delegates Of
the G. A. R. encampment from the north
west played on a loser yesterday when
they cast their votes against General
Thomas Stewart Of Pennsylvania.
He was elected. commander-in- chief by
a large plurality, over all the other can
didates placed in nomination. The dele
gates from Minnesota, with the exception
Of one man, voted for General John G..
Black of Chicago. South Dakota also cast
it's vote for the Illinois candidate while
the popularity of John McElroy Of Wash
ington among the North Dakota veterans
was attested in the solid vote which the
delegates Of that state cast in his favor.
H. F. Hicks of Minneapolis, a member
Of the John e. Rawlins post, was the
notable exception to depart from the unit
rule adopted by the command from Min
nesota. The sentiment among the Min
nesOta delegates was very bitter
against the Pennsylvania candidate
It was summed in these words
tonight by Commander Reade of

last year when we elected Ell Torrance
The Cleveland encampment was the sec
Ond time in the history of the order when
the Pennsylvania delegation failed to
dominate. Our candidate was treated I'M
fairly by the Pennsylvanians at Cleve-
land a year ago, and it was our purpose
to defeat General Stewart. if possible
Comrade Hicks was the only one among
the delegates from Minnesota, who cast
his vote for General Stewart" -
Among Minnesota men the statement is
freely made that In the election of Cen
eral Stewart the G. A. r. has made a
grave mistake. This is explained on the
ground that the war record of the Penn
sylvanian is embraced In service Of less
than thirty days, and in a. regiment which
was never mustered into the service

CHEAP RATES ON WHEAT
Canadian Grain to Go Out via Bos-

New York, Oct. s10.-One direct result Of

decentralization in trans Atlantic shipping
on this side to an extent that has seldom,

Journal of Commerce. : Agents of more
than twenty-five large steamers that have
been chartered to bring coal and iron and
steel to this country are now seeking re-
turn cargoes for their vessels. They are
offering them for various dates up to
December loading at Is 71sd for the largest
steamers and Is Cd for small vessels, and
quite number Of steamers have been
chartered so far this month for return
cargoes largely on the foregoing terms.
Only one of the ships chartered thus far
will sail from New York. The others will
depart from either Boston or Portland, and
under current conditions 1t is expected
that virtually all the other steamers when
chartered will leave by these northern
ports.

A Secret Disease

OF all human diseases, that known as
contagious blood poison, or the Bad
Disease, has caused more misery and suf-
fering and ruined more lives than all
others combined. It not only wrecks the
hopes and aspirations of the one who
contracts it, but often the innocent are
made to share the humiliation and dis
grace of this most loathsome and hateful
form of blood poison. Children inherit
it from parents, and thousands of the
purest men and women have been con-
taminated and ruined simply through
handling the clothing of one infected

Wild geese and brants are known to
travel. during the migratory season,
very far south. Recently large wild
goose was killed not far from Spokane
City, WASH, which had evidently
winged its way from the remote Eski-
mo lands. When the hunter picked
up the bird he was surprised to OBJ
serve slender piece of ivory protrud-
ing from its breast just below one of
its wings. With much difficulty he
succeeded in pulling out the piece, for
the flesh had grown tightly around it.
1t proved to be an arrowhead, about
eight inches long, which had some
queer carvings on the stem where II
had been fastened to the shaft. The
carvings were delicate, though quite
distinct. On a careful inspection by
some Klondike miners the carvings
were pronounced to be of Eskimo orig
in. No arrowpoint of that kind was
ever known to have been used by the
Indians of Washington or British Co
lumbia. The head was of fine ivory,
no doubt carved from a walrus tusk
Evidently the goose had been shot by
an Eskimo hunter in the Arctic re-
gions, the wound had healed, the flesh
had grown around the weapon, and in
its long flight the bird had no doubt
broken off the arrowshaft.-ScientiflC

SIX SENSES OF FISHES.
All OF Them Differ Widely From tn,
Five Given to Land Animals

The sense organs OF fishes have been
difficult to understand clearly. The
eye is most like that of other verte.
brates, and has an iris of brilliant
metallic luster, large and round
pupil and very large lens. It is so
sensitive that some fishes find food at
depths as great as 200 feet. Proper
eyelids are wanting. The nose con,
sists of two holes lined with a cor.
rugated mucous membrane in which
the nerves of smell terminate, and its
function must be very different from
that of land animals. The scent" of
fishes, once much believed in. proves
to be very feeble or absent Taste
is very keen, but its seat must be in
the softer parts of the mouth. the
tongue being very hard. The organ
of hearing is simpler than in other
vertebrates, though extremely sensi-
tive. The external ear is wanting. and
the inner ear consists merely of cavi.
ties filled with fluid and with little
porcelain-like PARTICLES. OF the sense
of touch little is known except that
1t belongs to the whole skin and is
very acute in the bristles around the
mouth. Fishes are suspected of hav-
ing sixth sense, whose organs are
the pores of the head and in a row
extending over large nerve.

The New Pittsburg Exposition.

is hustle and activity these days

ing scheduled for the night OF
Wednesday, September, 8, when
the great Sousa and his fam

inaugural concert OF popular and
novel selections. Mr.. Sousa's APP

doubly interesting to his ever

went mad over the work of his
superb organization.
Music hall is being beautifully
redecorated in white and pink for
this inaugural concert, and indi-

GOOSE A REVENGE
Franks of a Pei Disturb The Peace OF
Quiet Little Village.

There's lots of trouble in the little
village of Brookdale and it's all on ac-
count of the disorderly conduct of a
wild goose owned by the Widow Simp-
son. The widow bought the fowl from
a hunter when it was a yearling and
has since been trying to make a pet
of it with very disastrous results.
There's one thing that the people of
Brookdale pride themselves on, and
that is the well-kept lawns in front
of their homes. Widow Simpsons
goose had a taste for tender grass and
after destroying the pretty plot at
her cottage, made Predatory raids on
the ne;ysburs' lots. This started the
tror5fe, and the Widow Simpson,
from being one of the best-liked wom-
en- in the community, became the most
hated.
The goose seemed to realize that it
was heartily hated by its owners
ne, ghbors, and that a demand had been
mSde for its death, with which the
willow refused to comply. The fowl
thun began a persistent series of at
talks upon the people who wanted it
puG out of the way. 1t bit and seri-
ously injured a 4-year-old girl. upset
a iorty-gallon can of milk, tore down
the family washings and made raids
on poultry yards, killing off the young
chickens by the score. 1t became such
a terror hat the people of Brookdale
organized themselves into a vigilance
committee and started out to kill it.
Volley after volley was fired at the
goose, but it seemed to bear a charmed
life and escaped unhurt, flying out of
range of the buckshot fired at it, and
scrteching defiance at the men and
boys who sought to kill it.
One result of the vigilance commit
tees raid was the killing of a calf
