BEDE A TRUSI.BUSTER
A Little Lesson on Governmental In
reference Read Him by the
New York Sun.
snaoiaI to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Washington, Dec. 2.-When Rep
resentative Bede Of Duluth introduced
his two populist trust busting bills in
congress recently there were a good
many smiles on the faces of his Min
nesota colleagues, but little was said,
Bede's lack of perspective being
ascribed to his unfamiliarity with con-
gressional life. Now, however, his bills
have become the subject Of wide COM
ment. To-day's New York Sun de-
votes half column editorial to them
ginning as follows:
Whenever a trust-buster becomes really
active in the pursuit of corporations and
notoriety he demands that the prices OF
all commodities be regulated by law and
that any one SO depraved as to sell his
goods for the highest prices attainable
shall be made to feel the weight Of govern
mental displeasure. The Honorable Adam
Bere Of Minnesota, who-after sustaining
the democracy by holding office under
President Cleveland-last year decided to
go to congress as republican, mas de-
vised q plan to regulate those producers
and manufa cturers who have substantial
monopoly or control of any product or
merchandise which the public are accus-
tined to purchase or rely upon for the ord
mary necessaries or conveniences of life,
that is sparkling in its effective sim
plicity.
Mr.. Bede would have the interstate
| commerce Investigate the cost Of produc-
| ing and marketing all leading articles OF
| merchandise and manufacture originating
within the United States Having the cost
| of production the commission os called
upon by him to fix a reasonable maximum
price for each article, above which 1T shal
not be sold for shipment out Of the state
| in which it is produced.
]. Mr.. Bede would require the manufac.
! turer to sell at a price fixed by the com
| mission and If he sold at a higher price
or refused to sell at on efixed, would have
| him forfeit per cent Of his capital. pay s
! fine not less than one or more than fvt
| years. If any manufacturer should qui
/ business because Of governmental inter
ference, Mr.. Bede would have the court:
seize his plant and run it for interstate
trade until he came to his senses.
Concluding its editorial. the Sur
says: ''The only complete monopol
lists in this country are men ant
women to whom the government ha.
i isued patents and copyrights. Th'
government having erected protection
i around them with one set of laws
i Bede's plan Is to enact another set Il
i overcome it. The only way in which
Inventors and successful manufactur
ers can save themselves from the Hon
j. Adam Bede and his school of think
ers is by fleeing the country. Whel
his proposals are enacted into lay

JAP MINISTER PLEASED
He Predicts Speedy Settlement Of All
Difficulties.

Difficulties.
London, Dec. 2.-The Japanese min
lister, Baron Hayashi, received the
news Of the basis Of the agreement
reached between Russia and Japan
thru the exclusive dispatch of the AS
ISOLATED Press on the subject from
Paris last night. He said:
''That is splendid news. [ have
waited a long time in the hope OF
hearing it. With the basis reached 1t
will only be a short time before the
treaty is signed. The whole difficulty
so far has been to arrive at basis
satisfactory to both nations
Regarding the suggested arbitration
of the difficulties between Japan and
Russia Baron Hayashi remarked:
mo such proposition has been men
toned to me and I doubt if the Man
churian question could be settled by
that method. The Hague court ap-
pears to me to exist more for the pur-
pose Of interpreting knotty points of
existing treaties than for dealing with
such a territorial uestion as Man
| churia.'

Chicago, Dec. 2.-Walter- Wellman
In a Washington special to the Rec
ord-Herald says:
If the United States had not sent
warships to the isthmus of Panama to
preserve order after the revolution,
the French government would have
done so. Had the United States shown
any disinclination to meet the re-
fleet would have quickly appeared in
the harbor Of Colon and in the bay
of Panama.
This statement I am able to make
on the best Of authority. No applica7
ton for aid was made to the French
government by the isthmians who
were promoting the revolution, but
they had knowledge that If such aid
were needed it could be had for the
asking. The French government never
notified the United States that it had
any Intention to send warships to the
isthuus. as the matter did not reach
that stage, but it is known to mem
bers Of the administration, and was
known tC them when they decided tC
dispatch American naval vessels tc
Colon and Panama. that If this gov
ernrnert did not act promptly anc
enecgetically the French government
stood ready to intervene.
Moreover, it is considered morally
certain that even If there had been nj
revolution at Panama the French gov
ernment would have intervened in thu
end Fulfillment of the threat made
by the Colombian government to re

The people of France had poured int,

Chicago, Dec. 2.-Zion City, and as
much Of its property and assets as
have not been dissipated by John
Alexander Dowie, alias Elijah H., the
self-appointed head Of the Christian
Catholic church, are now in the hands
saat, on the petition Of creditors, who
allege the prophet to be insolvent.
Judge Kohlsaat at first refused to
appoint a receiver for the property on
the ground that Dowie should have
notice of so important a proceeding,
but after hearing Attorney Ettelson,
who represented the petitioning cred
itors, decided that it would be we'll
to have the receiver appointed before
the property at Zion City could be dis

Zion City was founded two years
ago by Dowie, has a population OF
10000, is the general headquarters for
Dowie's church and is said to repre-

Zion City was formally opened July
II, 1901, when DoWie took up his
headquarters there in an old farm
house after making a speech of con-
secration. Artizans were hurried te
the place and the construction OF
buildings and streets began.
The lace factories were opened over

were constructed. Brick, candy ant
woodworking plants were established
