Trusts and Tariff.

Certain great trusts or great cor
porations are wholly unaffected by the
tariff. Practically all the Others that
are OF any importance have as mat
ter OF Iact numbers Of smaller Ameri-
can competitors and OF course a change
ia the tariff which would work injury
10 the large corporation would work
not merely injury but destruction TO its
smaller competitors. and equally OF
course such d change would mean dis
aster to all the wage-wOrkers connected
with either the large OF the small cor
poraticus.
From the standpoint Of those inter
ested in the solution OF the trust prob
lem such change would therefore
merely mean that the trust was relieved
OF the competition of its weaker Ameri-
can competitors. and thrown only into
competition with foreign competitors.
and that the first effort to meet this
new competition would be made by cut
ting down wages and would therefore
be primarily al the cost of labor.
IN the case Of some Of our greatest
trusts such d change might confer upon
them a positive benefit Speaking broad
ly IL is evident that the changes in The
tariff viii affect the trusts for veal OF
for woe simply as they affect the whole
country. The tariff affects trusts only
as il affects all other interests. 1t
makes an these interests, large or small.
profitable, and its BENEFITS can be taken
from the large only under penalty Of
taking them from the small also.

KILLS WIFE AND SELF.
George B. Evans Uses Revolver With
Deadly Effect.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 17.-George
B. Evans, manager of the American
Transfer company, murdered his wife.
Lille Maude Evans. in a most cold
blooded manner at their home in the
southern portion Of the city. Later
he was found dead in Mount st. Mary's
cemetery, two miles distant, having
shot himself. Mrs Evans was attacked
as she lay asleep. According to the
hired girl, the only witness to the
tragedy, Evans entered his wife's
apartments at about daylight and fired
two shots at her. Neither took effect,
and then, dragging Mrs. Evans toward
him by the hair, he deliberately placed
his revolver against the back Of her
neck and fired. The shot literally
blew the woman's head Off In the
dim light the hired girl was unable
to recognize the murderer positively
as Evans, but informed the police
when the alarm was given that she
believed she recognized the voice as
his.
Evans escaped and his body was
found only after several hours search.
