A sliaht Misunderstanding.

A native Indian servant carrying
champagne, which natives call "sim-
kim" approached lady guest who
was rather deaf, with the question,
''Simkin, memsahib?" AS the lady
did not hear the question, he repeated
It in a little louder tone, and she
raised her ear trumpet to her ear in
order to catch what was being asked
her. Whether he thought it was a
new sort of drinking vessel do not
know, but anyhow he promptly filled
the trumpet with champagne!-The
King.

The National Capital.
Especial Correspondence to the HERALD
WASHINGTON; D. G. Dec. IA.
Briefs in behalf of the Northern
Securities and the N. P. Ry. Com
pany in the case of the U. S. vs..
those two companies and the Great
Northern Railway Company have
been filed in the Supreme Court.
The brief by the Securities Co. is
by Geo. B. Young and that of the
Northern Pacific by Judge G. W.
Bum.
"The Union Pacific interests
still held $37, ooo,OoO of the Nor
thern Pacific common stock. Be-
tween one and two millions were
not held by either of the parties.
The loss of three millions from the
majority holdings might occur from
various causes, and the attack just
defeated might be renewed with
success by the same or other assail-
ants" said Mr.. Young.
''In this emergency, Messrs.
Morgan & Hill saw clearly that
they must depend upon themselves
and not upon the law for pro-
lection. They had every reason to
believe" Mr.. Young continues,
that such holding as that of the
Union Pacific in the Northern Pa
cific was not contrary to the anti
trust law, and the 'sinaction of the
Attorney General showed that this
was also the opinion of that high
official charged with the enforce
ment of the antitrust act
On the question of consolidation
in the Securities Company, Mr..
Young says:
'Its ownership of the shares of
the two railway companies no more
consolidates or pools or merges
those shares of the two railway
companies, or their property, than
the ownership of two pieces of real
estate by the same person consoli-
dates them or the title of them"
He asserts that 'the only COM
bination of which there is any evil
dence is combination formed in
aid of commerce to liberate, pro-
tect, and enlarge, and not to re-
strain it, and which has liberated,
protected, aided, and enlarged it,
and has not restrained and does not
threaten to restraint
The brief of Mr.. Bum is an ar
gument to show that the action of
the two railroad companies did not
come within the antitrust act, he
says: seThe statute mnst be inter-
,preted so as to fall within the con-
stitutional powers of Congress.
Construed as the Cifcuit Court read
it, or as the learned attorney gen.
eral asks to have it read, the act
seems to us far beyond the scope of
those powers. 1t is nothing less
than an overturning of all settled
rules upon the subject to say that
the power of Congress extends to
determining in what corporations
stock may be held by citizens of
the states, or that it extends to the
regulation of the consolidation and
of railway companies char
tered by the states"

PRODUCTION OF PLATINUM.
U. s. Geological Report For 1902, Now
10 Psess.

The report for 1902 to the United
States geological survey on the produc.
tion Of platinum in 1902 IL now in press.
The report Is in two parts, the first be-
ing the report proper, by DIR. Joseph
Struthers, and the second being u paper
by Prof. J. +. Kemp on platinum in the
Rambler mine, Wyoming.
The production of platinum from do
nestle ores in the United States de-
creased from ,lOS ounces, valued at
e27 ,526, in l1Ol-the largest output re-.
corded by the geological survey since
lssO-to ~ ounces, valued ut u ,Sli, the
smallest production since 1893. In con.
nection with the platinum there WAS
also obtained from the ores 2O fine
ounces Of iridium, as against 253 ounces
in 1901. The domestic supply Of plat.
hmm in recent years has been obtained
as u secondary product chiefly from gold
placer deposits in Trinity and Shasta
counties, California. II 10 reported that
the metal occurs, though not in COM
mercially rich deposits, in many other
gold placers Of California, as well as in
Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana,
Colorado and Alaska. The Rambler
mine, Wyoming, continues to attract at.
ten,ion, and during the year II consider.
able quantity OF the meta. WAS collected
but not marketed by the Wars,ah Min.
erals company, at Kerby, near Grants
Pass, Josephine county, Oregon.
The Russian sources Of platinum sup.
ply, which furnish about 10 per cent OF
the total consumption Of the world, are
comparatively limited. The platinum
bearing ores extend along the eastern
watershed Of the Ural mountains in
eastern Perm and along the watershed
farther south.
The imports Of platinum into the
United States during 1902 were valu. d
at u ,9s7 $50. ~ compared with 81 ,6a5,.
