Difference BETWEEN ENGLISH
AND AMERICAN TRUSTS.

English trusts are comparatively
harmless Affairs. and cannot and have
not arbitrarily advanced prices except
in q few instances, like that Of brass
bedsteads, and then only temporarily.
The difference between trust in q
free-trade country and one In high.
tariff country can be illustrated by
the Borax Consolidated, an English
corporation with sl6.00o.ooo capital
This is a world trust, and the Pacific
Coast Borax Company, Of ths country,
is the greatest of the twelve companies
in the trust, and probably supplies as
much beraH as all Of the other COM
panies combined. This world trust
sells refined borax to-day In this coun.
try at 7a4 cents and In England at "a
cents per pouad. Much of the borax
sold In Eps1aAd Is borax from the
mines of salifsrnia. and is refined at
Bayonne, N. j., and exported TO Eng.
land. The duty on imported borax Is
cents per pound, and was raised from
Q cents In 1897 by the Republicans.
When the duty was cents. borax sold
here at 5 cents. AS matter Of history
1t may be stated that had there been
no duty on borax here there would
have been no world trust. The ex.
orbitant profits Of the trust here en-
abled 1t to sell borax at less than Q
cents per pound In Europe and to force
It's competitors to sell their plants at
low prices. But this trust is compare.
