Garield's Report.
From the New York Tribune.


In the present dull state of the stock
market anything can be made to serve mo-
mentarily for a bear argument but the
manipulators must have been unusually
hard up yesterday when they fixed upon
Commissioner Garfield's report as pretext
for the sag which was due in the natural
course of the period of seesaw wing after the
recent break. The report of the commits
sioner of corporations is really a conserva-
tive document. 1t will scare only those
timid folk who are bound to work them
selves into Mysteries over all movements to
keep the power of government equal to the
power of corporations. In a century the
corporations have enormously increased
their influence, developed methods unknown
to earlier days and put the people in an
entirely unforeseen dependence on them.
Yet, as Commissioner Garfield points out
with the exception of the interstate COM
merce act-the force of which has been
seriously weakened by judicial interpreta-
tion-and the navigation laws. there has
been no really affirmative attempt to regu-
late interstate commerce"

fought fiercely in the streets, smashing
glass doors Of subway entrance and
blocking traffic. The police were called to
subdue the riot, but no arrests were made
Now the authorities are proceeding in the
matter, especially for the purpose Of pun
fishing the lad who fired pistol in the pub
lie streets.
Hazing and class contests may be defens-
ible when kept within certain bounds OF
safety and decency, and especially when
confined to the college spaces and kept out
of the streets. When collegfans, whatever
the occasion, engage in riotous conduct IN
public they should be treated just as are
other roughs who disturb the peace ana
damage property.

Commissioner Garfield's Trust Cure.

Commissioner Garfield's recommendations
looking to the establishment of federal con-
troi OF the trusts are based upon the prin-
ciple that in order to give the United States
an actual and effective jurisdiction over
the commercial corporations 1t must enter
Into contractual relations with them. 1t
has at present no relations with them in
terms sufficient TO grant readily corrective
supervision. The commissioners project in
wolves a direct application of the power of
Congress. granted by the Constitution Ito
regulate commerce with foreign nations,
and among the several states and with the
Indian tribes That power has been vari-
ously exercised. in general and specific in
stances of regulation, restriction and pro-
hibition. 1t has been employed to stop the
lottery business, TO prevent traffic in GER
tain unwholesome or immoral commodities,
and In other ways. 1t has resulted In an
interstate commerce commission which to a
certain extent regulates the railroads of the
country in the matter of rates and equip
ment. Its application to the solution of
what is known the trust problem has
been frequently suggested. in differing
terms. but this is the first time 1t has been
preached officially and seriously as the
basis of a comprehensive licensing system
which, in the judgment of the commits
sloner will bring the great corporations
directly under federal control in manner
TO ensure obedience to the governments
mandates and requirements. The details of
the report will furnish material for an in
terestlng and perhaps an instructive debate
on the great question, and rumor says that
this document will supply materials and
inspiration for presidential deliverance
which will put the case before Congress in
concentrated form with recommendations
for action
