PLAN A STEEL TRUST
Old Story Of German Consolidation
Revived in Consular Report.

New York Sun Special Service.
London, Sept. 3o.-The British consul
general at Berlin reports that the forma-
ton Of q German steel trust may be ex-
pected before the end Of this year. One
of the objects will be to control the ex-
port Of iron and steel, which has not
hitherto been undertaken by the existing
syndicates. It is proposed to inaugurate
a system Of settlements between home
and foreign sales and determine the share
of the individual work belonging to the
combination.
The consul says that the large increase
in German iron and steel exports during
the last two years was obtained by SELL
ing at prices which frequently left no mar
gin ofy profit but even loss. It is ex-
pected that the new syndicate will be able
to conduct export operations under favor
able conditions.
American Trust Busy.
London, Sept. 30.-The Daily Express
says:
'The steel trust officials are launching
a huge combination to capture the British
and other. open markets for the purpose OF
disposing Of the trusts surplus output A
subsidiary company, entitled The United
States Steel Products Export company,
has been formed for this purpose"

which they have been accustomed.
In these cases, and in all cases
caused by overdistention and
pressure, the attack OF nosebieed
is direct effort on the part of ma.
ture to relieve the system. and is
therefore blessing in disguise.
In young people who are max

occur violent attacks which must
be, OF course, suitably treated, but
need cause no great alarm unless
they prove very obstinate to sim

bleed will disappear as the patient
approaches adult life and the
whole system finds its balance.
Certain diseases, such as scarlet
fever, typhoid fever, blood. poison

companied by attacks of nose

only one OF the many symptoms
OF 4 serious disorder, and as such

when these attacks become too
frequent, or when.enough blood is
lost to make the sufferer white

measures will be needful. There
is an old wives theory that the
dropping Of large cold door-key
down the back will stop nose
