\ d Arrangements have just been completed
for "a union, extending through a month";

1T will be recalled that at e. recent
meeting Of the Ministerial Union the:
ministers refused to hold one great union

objections was that the meeting would;
Z be too large, and the argument was made
that it would be better to hold several;
such meetings or tolet each denomination
conduct its own work. The Church ltill

scheme. Four churches-St. James, Meth

Il. At a caucus OF the independent tobac-

here yesterday afternoon, the matters to
hi presented for consideration at tho
washington Convention this week wcro
discussed at length with the result that
The locals, all of whom will be In at-
tendance, will line up. as unite on tho
several questions expected to arise.
lnlthis connection, 1t is interesting
to note new matter that holds forth
possibilities OF some largo Developments
In the FUTURE At the instance Of tho
Richmond manufacturers, as decided yes
tcrduy,i IL not at the instance Of others
as we'll, the independent Tobacco Manu-
facturers Association of the United
States will at once proceed to get Into
closer touch with the United States De-
partment OF Commerce and Labor. to as
certain Its privileges under this new de-
partment, and TO put these privileges to
immediate exercise " need be.
FOR & a FAIR TRADE. l.
ri. eve understand, 2 saidI President Land
street last night, that one Of the objects
q. this new department is to see that q
fair trade Is conducted, and that no great
corporation STILES the life out Of small
Independent concerns Such small In
dependent could not afford to try to block
the advance Of a trust-the American To-
.Eacco Company, for instance-but here
no could lodge his complaint with tho de-
rurtment's commissioner and the latter
would investigate and in the interests OF
law and order prosecute and punish any
offender, relieving the Independent of tho
responsibility and the expense. II this
IS really the case We want to know IT.
and to get into close touch with the de-
gpurtmcnt, and II necessary to exercise
our privileges under it, - 1t must
not be understood that we are making any
fight on thes American Tobacco Com
i any or anybody else AL We ask Is that
we be protected In the conduct Of legtt-
Innate business.
