The Trust.Bustinq Feat.

The great feat Of trust busting Is
about accomplished. Our great and
good president is supposed to have
gained his hearts desire In the
''shackling of cunning" Littlefield
has marched valiantly up the hill and
has not less valiantly marched down
again. Yet strange to say there has
been no panic among the trusts.
They have gone on about thsir
predatory business Just as though
nothing had happened. Their infiat-
ed securities still 60 ballooning fSd
trust prices show no signs of col

There's a deep-rooted suspicion
among people that the Lincoln day
banquet of the Ohio League of Repub-
lican clubs at Columbus was not 80
much Of a gathering in homer OF the
18th Of February as 1t was an occasion
on which to exploit some matters pure
ly Republican. One of the features of
the banquet which is said to have pro-
foundly impressed the banqueters is
the manner in which Chief Justice
Burkett cracked the shell which con-
tanned the information that be. is out
for third term. The Judge reviewed
the lives Of some Of the great jurists
who have served before him, and af-
ter telling of their deeds he pointed to
his own record and cited the fact that
the old iurists were given third terms.

HELD UP BY ARMLEss MAN.
Butte, Mont, Faro Dealer Passed Owe
Money He Lost

special to the New York World from
Butte, Mont, yesterday says: The California
Club, one Of the gambling houses Of Butte
was this morning the scene Of the strangest
hold-up and robbery ever known in the
west. Charles Payne, an armless man and
former sideshow freak, had been drinking
heavily and lost all his money at gambling.
About 3 o'clock he walked into the Califor-
MIA and stampeded the players by swinging
a big revolver into action with his right
foot and ordering faro dealer named
Richards to hand over the money he had
lost during the nights.
The dealer passed over the sum and Payne
ie1t the mouse with the gun still clasped be-
tween his toes. He escaped before the
police heard of the matter and he eluded
them until he got into trouble at cheap
lodging house when he brought his gun into
play again with his foot and took shot at
Peter Auerbaoh, narrowly missing him.
When the police arrived he attempted with
a razor to resist arrest, but was over
powered and taken to Jail.

The lake, it Is said, will proba bly, extend

that in the near future the President and
Vice President OF the United States would

NO STATUE FOR CLARK.
Governor of Indiana Vetoes Bill Passed
by Legislature.

A dispatch from indianapolis, Ind. last
night says: Governor Durbin vetoed the
bill today to place the statue of George
Rogers Clark, conqueror Of the northwest
territory, In the Indiana niche in Statuary
Hall at Washington. The bill was passed
by the republican majority, the democratic
minority trying to substitute the name Of
Benjamin Harrison. In vetoing the bill
the governor said: THAT Clark was a
powerful agent in advancing the civiliza-
ton Of the northwest territory no one will
controvert. Impartial history, however,
has fixed his place as pioneer soldier.
1T is to be regretted that so brave
warrior should have so serious a cloud
resting on his own loyalty and patriotism.
He was discredited by his own state.
There is no question that he character
lied the government Of the United States
as weak and without character and was
willing to join the army Of Spain. In the
face of this record and because his selec-
tion, If not otherwise Objectionable, would
not recognize a citizen of Indiana, 1 can
