FIERCE MIDNIGHT
STABBING AFFRAY
Joseph and Edward Smith Terribly Cut
Up and Charge Ed. MaIoney
With Doing It.

Joseph and Edward Smith, brothers,
were badly cut about the head in a stab
bing affray which took place on the street
at Seventh and Minnesota streets about
1880 last night. Edward Smith received
a knife wound three inches long on the
back of the neck and one on the back of
the head. Joe Smith was cut about the
face. Both men are seriously injured but
will recover.
The two Smiths, Edward Maloney and
two others had been drinking around town
during the evening. About II O'Clock
they were in ]. ]. Esch's saloon, SO East
Seventh street, where they had some
words. They left the saloon and went over
to Eighth street and walked down Eighth
to Minnesota. There they turned back
on Seventh street and the fight followed
officer Dan McCart was making his
round when he heard the noise and ran
two blocks to the scene. He found three
men mixed up In mass on the pave
ment in front of the California Wine
with his revolver compelled the Smiths
to walk to the patrol box across Mime
sofa street. The two others who were
IN the fight fled before the arrival of the
officer
The Smiths were bleeding profusely and
left distinct trail of blood across the
against the wall waiting for the arrival
Of the. patrol wagon there was large
pool of blood on the pavement.
Maloney is accused by the Smiths of
being the man who did the cutting A
bystander found a large knife lying in the
gutter after the fight was over. The
knife was open, but had no blood stains.
:. At the city hospital the physicians said
that the Smiths were not in a dangerous
condition. They refused to talk about the
cause of the trouble, but We're bitter
against Maloney.
The Smiths and Maloney were booked
at the central station last night as being
disorderly:. 1t is likely that a charge of
assault with dangerous weapon will be
placed against Maloney.

ENGLAND LOSES
PLACE ONCE HELD
American Merchant Marine Causes an
Uneasy Feeling Among Mem
bers of House of Lords.

LONDON, July S.-Lord Brassey
NiberaD initiated discussion on ma
val matters in the house of lords to-
day, during the course of which he de-
plored the fact that Great Britain had
lost the place she once held with her
mercantile marine. The question OF
subsidies, he thought, must depend on
the action of the other powers. All
the naval powers of Europe gave lib
eral subsidies, while President Roose-
welt and former Secretary Gage had
recommended this policy 1t was con-
trary to British policy to foster indus
tries by bounties or protection, but to
pay for a reserve of auxiliary vessels
would certainly be to the public ad-
vantage.
Lord Selborne. the first lord of the
admiralty, in the course of a reply, re-
ferred to the Atlantic shipping com
bine. He said it seemed to him that
the balance was one of disadvantage to
the combination, because it necessarily
placed very large powers in the hands
of few men. The government dis
claimed any sort of Jealous intention
OF the Americans here. They had an
American marine of their own and
Atlantic trade. 1t was to British inter-
ests that they should have it. 1t
should not be an almost British mo-
nopoly. On the other hand, Great Bri-
tain could not afford to see herself
squeezed out of the Atlantic trade. The
attitude of the government, therefore.
was not one of hostility, but of anx-
iety, and not until they had formed
final opinion of the whole question
could they wisely or fairly enter into
agreements with one party or the
other.
1t would never do to rely in time of
war on merchant ships Of other ma
tions for the purposes of British ce/-
ryiEg trade. Great Britain had fallen
behind in regard to vessels of high
speed, because she had not given heavy
subsidies like other nations. The ex-
pense of so large a subsidy policy was
so 1nsidious that, in his opinion, tie
subs1dizing Of commercial corporations
should and must be confined to a linn
tied number and for a special and def
mite purpose. While merchant cruis-
ers had their proper place in time Of
war they could never be substituted
for naval cruisers nor would the pos
session of merchant cruisers even di-
minish the ship building vote for the
navy.

NEWS eATHERERs TO HUSTLE
Secretary Moody Issues Orders Re-
garding Sham Maneuvers.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July Sup
to this time the war and navy depart
ment officials have considered but two
factors in the coming joint army and
naval maneuvers on the Atlantic coast
in September-the invading and de-
Tending forces. Now, according to
the plans of Secretary of the Navy
Moody, there is to be a third factor
the press of the United States. The
object of the maneuvers is to stimu-
late, as closely as possible, the condi-
tions of actual warfare, and the secre-
tary believes that as the press plays
such an important part in real war,
it should be seriously considered.
Therefore he contemplates throwing
the press correspondents of the coun-
try upon their own resources, mean
while having both invaders and de-
tenders regard the newsgatherers as
a common enemy and endeavoring
to mask the movements of their forces
as much as possible from the pub
lie.
1t is not believed that under Secre-
tary Moody's plan there will be any
thing to prevent news organizations
from chartering vessels of their own
and keeping up with the fleets at sea
as best they may, for this was done
in the late Spanish American war. In
the late war the great press organiza-
tions also had correspondents aboard
the fagships of the fleets.

From the Globe Washington Bureau,
Post Building.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July s.
Chairman Griggs, of the Democratic
congressional committee, returned to
Washington today and proceeded to
say some sarcastic things about the
president and his antitrust talk.
ut would seem from Mr.. Roosevelt's
statement that all the country need do
is to wait until the reassembIing of
congress, when forthwith the trusts
will be regulated" remarked Chair
man GriggS, as he took his seat at his
desk in the Democratic headquarters
today, after a. few days absence in
Georgia.
I am somewhat surprised" he con-
unued, that the president should
have waited until congress had ad-
Journed to deliver his message on reg
ulatlng trusts. The constitution re-
quires the president to advise congress
as to legislation on any subject con-
s1dered necessary by him, and failure
to advise congress on this question is
indeed strange, considering the fact
that he thought it necessary to say
something on the question two days
after adjournment of the session.
The legitimate conclusion must be
that the message is to the people and
not to the lawmaking power.
The Democratic party in congress
IN the last caucus held before adjourn
ment insisted on antitrust legislation.
We not only did that, but we urged
that congress remain in session until
such legislation could be enacted. The
president knew of this, and with his
assistance we probably could have ac-
com Mi shed
earnest let him call congress together,
and the Democratic party stands ready
to vote for anything that will rid the
country of the trust burden. But does
the president suppose that the people
of the country do not know that the
Republicans have had full control of
both the legislative and executive
branches of the government since 1895,
and that he can point to nothing that
has been done since that time to reg
ulate trusts? If anything has been
done, have been unable to find a
record of it,"

Alleged Gases of Cruelty to Patients
Suffering From DeIirium
Tremens.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July 8.-The
American and British residents of this
place are indignant at the alleged
brutal treatment at one of the hos
pitalS here of a Scotchman name VIM.
Houstown, who died, as asserted, of
alcoholism, Sunday morning Hous-
town was a dry goods clerk here, a
man of good family and not an habit
ual drunkard. He is alleged to have
drunk to excess during the recent cell
ebrations held here. and last Saturday
he became delirious. A friend took
him to the hospital and left him there.
That night Houstown became violent
He was put into straitjacket
thrown into cell and left without at
tendance, and the next morning he
was dead. No treatment whatever
was given him.
This is the second case Of this ma
ture which has resulted in death with
in the last month. The other case
was that of an American named Coop
er, who was taken to the hospital suf-
fering from delirium tremens. He was
refused admission and taken to the
Jail, where he died in a few hours.
Mr.. Mason, the British consul here,
is investigating both these cases.

ILLINOIS HAS THE
BEEF TRUST CORNERED
Attorney General HamIin, 1t Is BeIiev-

Win the Fight.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, July 8.-Attor-
ney General Hamlin is after the beef
trust and has been for weeks quietly
gathering evidence against the Big
Six. He is watching closely the propos-
ed combination of the packers into
giant corporation, and when he is
assured such a combine is in process of
formation he will bring proceedings on
behalf of some stockholder on behalf
of the state of Illinois to restrain the
consummation of the DEAL
Mr.. Hamlin's investigation has been
carried on with much secrecy, and it
is said that the evidence which he be-
gan to collect shortly after the govern
ment bill for an injunction was filed
IN Chicago in the middle Of May, has
grown to such Importance that pro-
ceedings might safely be begun at any
time under the laws of Illinois against
trust methods of doing business in the
state.
While the full scope of his informa-
ton has not been made public. it is
said that much valuable material has
been gathered in the various cities of
the state where members of the trust
have branch houses and are, or at least
were before the temporary injunction
was issued, allowed clear field in
the particular territory in question
without competition from other mem
bers of the trust
To reach the packers and encompass
the throw of the operations in re-
straint of trade and competition the
attorney general can proceed under
the common law which, according to
competent legal opinion, is sufficient
to cover the case under the decision
of the Illinois supreme court in the
case of the Glucose trust the protest
of one stockholder in any one Of the
concerns contemplated for absorption
into beef combine will be enough,
backed by the laws of Illinois, to pre-
vent the consummation of the deal.

DESTINED TO RULE
SEA AND COMMERCE
United States, Great Britain and Ger
many are Getting Together
for the Good of All.

Morgan'S arrival here caused a great
stir, cables the Berlin correspondent
OF the Herald. When Mr.. Morgan, ac-
companted by his daughter sauntered
through Unter den Linden, he was
TO the pictures and cartoons with
which the German public have been
almost daily entertained.
Asked about his meeting with the
Kaiser, Mr.. Morgan said:
L am very sorry, but cannot say
anything about the kaiser. He was
exceedingly courteous to us. He's a
great man, for a fact"
Clement A. Griscom, who was with
the party on board the Meteor, said:
The Anglo Saxon countries-the
United States, Great Britain and Ger
many-are destined to rule the sea and
commerce. The kaiser is acquainted
with all the details of the Trans-At-
Iantlc Shipping company, and shows a
marvellous grasp of current affairs.
While we were on board the Meteor
he assumed charge and directed like a
lifelong seaman, in fact he would have
led the Meteor as a winner for the first
prize except for the large handicap
given the boat.
1.-The kaiser sympathizes with our
efforts in doing away with Unnecessary
competition between the various trans
Atlantic lines, and effecting economy
l have no doubt the kaiser is becoming
more and more popular, not only
among his own people, but in other
countries. When Prince Henry visited
the United States a member Of the
New York Yacht club decided to make
a return by coming over to the meet
ing at Kiel. I am sure that the at
tendance of the increasing number of
American yachts at Kiel is now GER
tain.
"The kaiser expressed admiration for
Mr.. Morgan. I think he believes the
United States is a good country to
model after. There is no reason to
fear rivalry either between Germany
and the United States from CONNER
c1al standpoint. All may work to-
gether for q common end
