THAT ROCKEFELLER OPPOSITION

One OF the cheapest canards that the Republican
management has fit to send out from Washington
is the report that Rockefeller is actively 6ebtino the
1tteheld antitrust" bill.
The bill passed by unanimous vote-245 to O. Is
1t to be supposed that corporation whose dividends
reached the mountainous total of 900 last
"a corporation that muster so Is votes on any
Dill 1t sees ha corporation which one of the strong
est supporters of Republican policy and owes much Of
Its dividends to the protection Of byeproducts in the
DIngley tarif-could muster single vote AGAINST
the Ltefeld bill?
he result shows that Rockefeller was for the bill
and that every trust in the United States was for the
bill; Tor that is not that is devoid of influence
that 1t cannot command single vote in congress-
And why should they be heartily in favor Of the
only trusts thereafter organized" and thereby extends
protection and immunity to trusts organized?
The Stiffness of the Republican canard is seen in the
story itself The report is that less than six con
gressmen have received kilograms signed, "John D.
Rockefeller urging that antitrust legislation be en-
acted The of the alleged Rockefeller kilograms
reads:
we are opposed to any antitrust legislation Our
counsel Mr.. will see Won If must he

GREATEST VICE
is |MPURITY
Fred B. Smith Warns Large
Audience of Men of Its
Dangers.

Social impurity was the subject dis
cussed at the Y. M. c. A convention
meeting in the Central Presbyterian
church yesterday afternoon. Though
advertised for men only" there was
not word in the whole address which
might not have been spoken from any
pulpit or platform to a mixed audi
ence of men and women.
Not only was the church packed to
the doors, but the school room annex
and balcony were also crowded and
number We're unable to gain admission.
A good musical programme added to
the interest
The speaker of the afternoon, Fred
B. Smith, Of New York, is powerful
ly built, enthusiastic man who, while
not by any means eloquent, Is very
impressive, as was shown by the large
number of men who at the close of
the meeting made open profession of
conversion. There were some three
hundred of these, and for their benefit
a short after service was held.
Mr.. Smith classes the three great
vices Of the age as gambling, which
he terms an euphonious name for steal
ing; intemperance and impurity. For
the gambler and the man who is in
the grip of the drink habit he pro-
fessed every sympathy, but said he had
none whatever for the young man who
was "fooling' with liquor with the
idea that it would do him no harm
A young man of this type, he de-
clared to be an unmitigated fool who
ought to have guardian appointed
to look after him, as certainly the top
OF his head must be an open cavity
If, in the light of what was known of
the terrible results of the drink habit,
any one would deliberately thrust
himself into it's grasp.
tU 1on
most dangerous of all the vices, not
only because it attacked every man,
but for the further reason that in it's
discussion the two greatest forces in
modern morality, viz: the press and
the pulpit, were muzzled and could
not speak out openly as they did
against other evils. The dangers Of
impurity, he said, were due first to
innocence and ignorance and after
wards to viciousness, finally resulting
in the hog degree" which was the
lowest and most wicked type Of man
kind. He dealt briefly with the moral
and physical results OF vice, the low
ering of ambition and dissemination
or disease, while untold injury was in
h1cted upon innocent persons led
astray.
The remedy he suggested for the evil
or impur1ty was the assertion of a
mans manhood coupled with constant
PPSNAo " OfOd 1OF HSlp, anu he pdFuc-
ularly impressed upon the audience the
absolute requirement of refusing to
listen to or relate foul or indecent
stories, while men seeking to be pure
should in every way avoid those
places frequented by the impure.
Mr.. Smith Will speak tonight at the
Minnesota university at o'clock.
The evening service at the Central
Presbyterian church. which wound up
the convention, was also largely attend

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Feb. s.-Judge

probate the copy of the will of the late

in which he made Miss Henrietta Ce-

married him on his death bed and he
died a week later. The original will
could not be found and a copy made
from a stenographer's notes was pre-
sented. The court said the copy was
shown to be true one, but the evil
dence did not show that the testator
had not revoked the will. By this de-
cision the estate Of Gibson is inherited
by his mother and brother.

Baxter q Co.'S Stock Letter.

New York, Jan. 2S.-There were no
important news features to-day of a
character to influence values, but the
stock market sank into the dullness
proverbial to midsummer Commits
sion house business, which has been
declining all the week, reached practi-
cally the disappearing point. London
transacted no important business. The
professionals were inclined to sell the
market at times, but was prevented
by the demonstration of strength in
Copper, to which was imputed perhaps
more significance than really attached
to it. There was no selling pressure
at any time, but purchases were like
wise in a half-hearted way and trad
ers were quick to change their posi-
ton through the session whenever
small profits, more by good luck than
otherwise, appeared in sight. No in
fluence of importance was exercised by
the grain markets, in which there were
no such sensational developments as
had been looked for by many after
yesterdays sensations at Chicago. The
market closed extremely dull, but
nominally steady. Government bonds
unchanged; railroad bonds steady.

STRIKE AT TAMPA.

A Tampa special to the Florida

men are still waging a fight against
the city. Notwithstanding the fact that
the fire department is manned and all
of the stations are opened, they still
have great hopes of winning the bat
tie. 1t is possible that the committee
will go before the Council in order to
try to effect a settlement by which the
old men can get back in the department
again. Whether this will be met with
success is hard to tell. If this is not
done the strikers will possibly have to
give up the fight, and this will I'M
doubtedly break up their newly organ
lied union, which will be no good to
them unless they are back at work.
The various unions of the city have
levied an assessment upon each mem
Der for a period of four weeks, which
money will go toward aiding the fire.

there is no question but that Tampa

SIGNED THE CONTRACT.
Brunswick is Now Sure of Its steel
Plant.

Brunswick, Ca, Jan. 2S.-The con-
tract for the coming of the Mohawk
Valley Steel and Wire Company has
been signed by President and General
Manager Umsted and members of the
Brunswick Board of Trade.
Yesterday a surveying party with
President Umsted, was surveying a
site and making other preliminary ar
engagements for beginning work. While
it has not been definitely decided ex-
actly where the mammoth rolling mill
will be located it is thought that the
company will decide to erect it in the
southern portion of the city, on or near
the old site, where once stood the
Brunswick Brewery.
Mr.. Umsted has left for his home in
Worster, Mass. and announced that
he would return to the city in a week
or ten days and establish offices and
will be ready for work.
The contract stipulates that not one
dollar subscribed in Brunswick is to
be paid until the plant is in full OPP
GRAFTON. 1t also guarantees to the peo-
pie that the factory will be operated
for at least five years after it has been
completed.
