THE GARFIELD PLAN.
Some Defects AS to Proposed Con-
troll of Trusts.

Thomas G. Frost, general counsel
6.r tie National Incorporation COM
sDaRv. and author OF Frost on Incor-
9sration," upon being interviewed IN
reference to the proposed federal IL
eensine of interpretations, said:
THE proposed remedial corpora
asoa legislation recommended by
Commissioner Garfield involves two
separate propositions: First, the
oassaee of general federal incor-
,ooeation law; second, the enactment
of 8 federal statute requiring all cor
oorfaions engaged in interstate COM
1nerce to procure a license from the
federal government before engaging
therein.
~My opinion as to the adv1sabllity
and practicability Of such legislation
is this: A federal corporation law
1ermissive and not mandatory IN
character, while it would have much
So recommend it, would do little to-
wards remedying existing aouses'
Sa,ch an act would simply meet the
wants of those who preferred char
ter issued under authority OF the ted
erd government, and this, too, at the
exoense of the state governments
would unquestionably suffer dlmin-
1,ation in income were federal lnco7-
ooration to be permitted. AS
zsource of revenue to the national
government such an act would un-
doubtedly be a pronounced success
bat as strust-buster' it would be
grievous disappointment.
The proposition to require ted
e,aa license from all state corpora
4ions engaged in interstate commerce
is crude, visionary and exceedingly
ii1-advised from a business stand
ooint. 1t is a species of radical leg
1s,ation suited to strongly central
zzed government, such as France
rather than to one, such as ours
wherein the rights Of the several
states are carefully guarded by con-
~stitutional enactments against en-
croachments on their prerogatlves by
the federal government.
"The objects to the proposed TED
era1 license law may be briefly sum-
married. as follows: First, it is cen
tralization in it's worst and most VIZ
u1ent form; second, it would be I'M
oossible to make it wholly effective
owing to the fact that the right to
forfeit the charters of the corpora
4ions so licensed would rest necessar-
slv with the state authorities from
xhom the charter was procured. Fin
ailv if such a bill were introduced
into congress it would be. dlthcult 10

THE PAST WEEK OF THE WAR.
Few Minor Fights Occur-War oppo-
sitlon in Russia,

There were minor clashes between
the two armies in Manchuria last
week, but nothing that approached an
engagement in character. Low tenn
perature still prevails and, warned by
the suffering that grew out of Kuro-
patkins recent aggressive movement.
there is evidently a disinclination to
attack with large bodies at a time of
such severe frost. Artillery has been
active. however and during the week
the Russians shelled the Japanese
right, left and center, but apparently
without effect
IL was announced at st. Petersburg
that Rojestvensky's squadron, now in
the indian ocean, would proceed to
the far east during the month so as
to avoid the bad weather of the mon
soon season, and assurances were
given that additional vessels would be
sent out from the Baltic to make the
Russian fleet in Asiatic waters still
more formidable.
There are signs that the Japanese
will blockade Vladivostock with the
opening of spring. but the Russians at
that garrison profess to be in readi-
ness to withstand a siege and insist
that blockade can not work any Sc
rious hardships to an army within
that is now well supplied.
Opposition to the war is still mani
fest in Russia, and several newspe.
pers have boldly demanded that it be
stopped. Persons high in authority
continue to scout the idea of peace
and reiterate the determination of the
czar and his counsellors to prosecute
hostilities with more energy than ever
before.

Mobile, Ala, Feb. 14.-Losses al
ready estimated at $250,O0O have been
caused by fire that left the famous
Battle house a ruin and swept on to
buildings adjoining.
The fire broke out in some unoccu-
pied rooms over the kitchen of the
Battle house, which, although an old
hostelry. was one of the largest in the
south. The flames spread so quickly
that a number of guests lost an their
belongings and not few of those on
sthe fifth floor were compelled to take
to the fire escapes In their night
clothes. Two elevator boys stuck to
their posts until all the guests had
been gotten out. although the elevators
caught fire and the youngsters were
burned about the face and hands.
An hour after the fire started all
the electric lights in the business por-
tion Of the city went out, due partly to
the turning off of the power to save
the flremcn from danger and partly
to save one Of the main feed wires be-
ing broken.
