A dispatch received by Acting
Secretary Loomis, of the State de.
P"rtment, Thursday night from the
President Of the American board of
missions, at Boston, indicated that an
attempt had been made to burn the

"lntormation just received that an
attempt has been made to burn the
Euphrates College buildings. Con
ditlons increasingly alarming. Great
anxiety felt for the safety of Ameri,
can citizens there"
Acting Secretary Loom,s immedi-
ately cabled to Minister Leishman at
Constantinople to make immediate
demands on the Porte to make ade-
quate measures for the protection of
all Americans at Beirut and to pre-
vent any attack on the college build
ings.
Admiral Cotton, who was directed
to hold his squadron in readiness
to, proceed at a moments notice
to Beirut, cabled the navy depart
nent as follows, under note Of Nice,
France, and date of August 81:
"Cable just received. Machias at

Oyster Bay, August 20. 1t devel,
oped today that the cablegram from
Minister Leishman, at Constantine

dent Roosevelt, contained, in addi-
tion to statement of the Incorrect
ness of the announced assassin alton
OF Vice Consul Magelssen, at Beirut,
an important report upon the situa.
tion in the Ottoman Empire Minis
ter Leishman takes serious view
Of the condition of affairs in Turkey.
Practically y the entire dominion Of the
Sultan is in state Of unrest, and in
some parts the existing turbulence is
equivalent to insurrection.
Minister Leishman apprehends se-
rious trouble and indicates his belief
that American interests and Ameri-
can lives are in peril on account of
the fanaticism of the Afussulman
population.
The minister's report confirmed
information received by President
Roosevelt and Secretary Hay from
unofficial sources. For these reasons
it was decided by the President that
AdmraPs Cotton squadron should
proceed to Turkish waters, in accord

WHAT IT WAS ALL ABOUT.

WHAT IT WAS ALL ABOUT
The State department at Washing
ton on Thursday received cable
gram from Minister Leishman, at
Constantinople, announcing that Will
liam G. Magelssen, United States
vice consul at Beirut, Syria, WAS AZ
sassinated on Sunday, August %,
while riding in carriage. The Ame
rican minister Immediately brought
the supposed crime to the attention
Of the Government and demanded
action by Turkey. Acting Score
tary Loomis on Thursday csbled
Minister Leisbman, instructing him
to demand the immediate arrest and
punishment of the persons guilty Of
the murder. No demand for money
indemnity for the mans family was
made. Magelssen was appointed
from Minnesota.
SKETCH OF MA9ELSsEN.
Magelssen, who is of Scandinavian
descent, was appointed vice consul
at Beirut on September 20, 1899, by
Consul Gabriel Bic Ravudal, who is
of the same nationality. At the
time of his appointment as vice con
sul he WAS the consular clerk in Tur
key. Magelssen was appointed on
the recommendation Of Senator Mel
son, Of minnesota, who says that he
WAS Il son Of prominent Lutheran
minister. He was born at Bratsburg,
Fillmore County, Minnesota.
THE SUPPOSED MURDERER NOT KNOWN.
Minister Leishman's cablegram
stated that the assassination occurred
on Sunday, the minister being in
formed Of the crime by O )nsul Ravu
dal. The consul stated that the
murderer was not seen and WAS not
known.
OUR GOVERNMENTS DEMANDS
The announcement of the assassi-
nation of the American vice consul,
following 30 soon upon the assassina
tion of Russian consul IN Turkey,
created strong comment III official
circles, and the suggestion was made
that such frequent assassinations in
dicate the disturbed condition Of af.
fairs in the Turkish dominions.
Minister Leishman gave no partlcu
lars Of the assassination and the
State department had no information
as to the cause Of the murder. The
American Government insisted
that the local authorities be punished
il they we're derelict in their duty,
and the ,ull measure Of their pun
ishment be given the actual perpe
traitors of the outrage.
Beirut is city on tho eastern
shore of the Mediterranean Sea and
is a place of considerable commercial
Importance.

ing of three war shi pa, was ordered

We would leave perhaps, the first

million cheap, and raise the rate with
each succeeding million. The United

capitalization of something over one
thousand millions. The graduation

Northern Pacific and the Great
Northern railroads is a great enough
public disaster to have warranted the
attention which it has attracted, it
GOULD have been prevented much

States statute that required any cor
poration engaged in Inter State com
merce to reduce it's rates so per cent

that any corporation or in lividual

must furnish it's services or supply

The report Is signed by all the
members of the committee, consisting
Of Walter S. Logan, Henry Budd,
Gardiner Lathrop, George Whitelock,
and John Morris, Jr.
There was applause when Judge
Logan concluded the reading of the
report.
The report was recommitted with
instructions "to report remedies for
illegal combinations which threaten
commercial intercourse. This &C.
ton indicates that while the bar as.
soclatlon is not prepared to accept
any one Of the three suggestions in
the original report it does agree that
some remedy is needed. This is a
confession that an evil exists. as
there can be no need for a remedy
whore there is no evil. The bar as
sociation is thus on record as con
denning the tendency toward con.
solidation in commerce, and a point
is gained in the consideration Of the

Following is synopsis of the re-
port:
TRUSTS AND COMBINATIONS.
'The modern combination's pri-
mary object is TO control trade and
commerce in plain articles of pro
| ductlon, and substitute a more or
less perfect monopoly in the place of
a l.re or less free competition. It
changes entirely the basic principle
| of commercial relations between man
and man, and if they are to continue
to grow and develop in the future as
in the past will render necessary
most important changes in the prin-
oiples Of our commercial laws. Com
bination as on economic force is fast
coming to take the place of COM
petition. We are now having COM
binations of combinations. The United
States Steel Corporation is com
bination Of Il dozen heretofore COM
peting producers, who themselves
we're combinations Of still other pro
ducers and these in turn often COM
binations Of at i'll others.
"No one knows but that within
the next ten years a greater than j.
Pierpont Morgan will arise, who
will combine into into one orgainiza
tion all the Industries Of the land, 30
that the workman who works for
wages can find but one possible en-
ployer, and the purchaser of wares
but one possible seller The steps
toward the formation of one indus
trial corporation, which shall crowd
out all other corporations and assume
to itself the industries of the land,
have been already more than half
taken. 1t is not so far to go from
now to that end IA we had to 90 to
reach present industrial conditions.
IA monopoly is economically de
sirable; that is, for the monopolist.
The United States Steel Corporation
can produce, no matter what it sells
them for, it's goods cheaper than the
elements out OF which the combina
tion is composed ever produced them
The Standard Oil Company is econ.
omically holy, for it pays 40 per
cent dividends, if they are undesira
bic, if the people of the American
nation would be better off without
them or with limitations put on
them, they must put those linn
itations on by the action of their
Legislators, theh Congress and their
Courts. The American Bar must
act and the American Association
must take the lead. If the North
ern Securities Corporation had been
allowed to go on, the next thing to
follow it would naturally have been
a United States Securities Company,
which would hold the majority of the
stock of nearly every railroad where

William Thaw, the wealthy Pittsburg
man who created quite an interna-

he left In the same style in which he
had viewed the western metropolis.
His time here had been overstayed, and
he wanted to reach California as soon
az possible He at once chartered from
the Union Pacific a private Pullman
and paid $3.50 spot cash to use II seven
days. He then purchased eighteen tick
cts at $40 each to San Francisco In or
der to have the exclusive use Of the
car. When he had paid out 81 ,070 In cold
cash he went on board, took his seat
and notified his private secretary not to
let any one take his picture for the pa
pers The only person on board besides
himself was a. Harvey Hill, his private
secretary.
1t is said that he spent money lavish
~ while in Denver. At one place he
left S1OO for hack drivers, elevator
boys, porters and walters, who thought
Morgan or Vanderbilt had struck town.
