WILL HAVE A CHANCE.
Dst u rrssts No Not ceafer,a to Law
They Will BE Prosecuted By
Attorney General knox. %

Washington, April 16.-Bad trusts
will be warned and have a chance to re-
form: If they do not reform they will
be prosecuted. That. represents the
policy of the government. Attorney
General Knox directed one Of his as
sistants to say for publication that
there would be no more litigation with
out warning. One of the assistants
said that the trusts would probably
have chance to reform after receiv-
ing the first intimation that they were
violating the law. The department of
commerce will do this preliminary
work.
The belief here is that the big trusts
are preparing to adjust their business
to meet the new conditions. The steel
trust is to become managing corpor-
alton, instead of holding company.
TIE Northern Securities company will
give way and one of the big railroads
in the combination, probably the
Burlington, will become the dominant
factor in the northwestern transpor-
tation business. These changes will go
on like this as rapidly as possible, and
the governmentwill give the capitalists
plenty of time.

During the last two OF three days
of his stay in the park the president
will be joined by Secretary Loeb and

Naples doctors are studying the ex-
traordinary case of young woman, a
victim of hysteria, from whose body
pins and needles have been issuing
for some time past. An examination
by means of the Roentgen rays shows
that there are still large number Of
needles and pins in the young wom-
ans body. The doctors are at loss
to explain the phenomenon, but it is
supposed that the girl eats the pins
and needles when in hysterical fit.
Admitting this, it is still difficult to ex.
plain how they find their way out at
her extremities.

ply a result of careful breeding. for
Mr.. Helmke has been experimenting
with this end in view for several
years. It has long been a theory Of
his that by proper selection an6 breed
ing q hen might be produced which
would lay at least one egg every day in
the year. He has also theorized on
the possibility of a breed of hens
which would produce two eggs every
day.
