CAN'T LAND THE BEEF TRUST,
but Texas Committee Knows there Is
One and Wants the Laws Enforced

One and Wants the Laws Enforced.
AUSTIN, Tex. April 1.-THE Joint com
mittee Of the House and Senate appointed
to investigate the beef trust made an
official report to the Legislature to-day.
which says in part;
while there was not developed evidence
Of specific violation Of the Antitrust
law upon which we could recommend the
instigation Of civil or criminal proceedings
against any particular person OF corpora
ton, yet from these hearings and from
advices received and obtained by the COM
mittee and the several members thereof
we are able 10 state and to report that in
our judgment there exists in this State
combination Of persons and corporations
engaged in the business Of packing and
selling beef and other like products which
is in CONFIRMATION Of the Interstate law
and constitutes a trust, monopoly and
company in restraint Of trade.
1t has been said that there are no good
trusts vet II they can be classified trusts
which control the necessities Of life are
the worst. II is not the wish OF this com
mittee. or Of the Legislature, or OF any
department OF government that course
Of act ion shall be recommended OF adopted
encouraging or authorizing q procedu re
for the enforcement Of the Antitrust law
without sufficient evidence In each case
TO justify judgment OF conviction, yet we
think the time has arrived when this law
should be enforced in good faith or repealed.
1t is beneath the dignity Of this great
State TO solemnly enact a law Of this nature,
under the conditions then and now exist
ing, and then permit such law 70 remain
mere form and without meaning or effect.
we are advised that complaints are
being made In different parts OF the state
Of violations OF the Antitrust law 70 such
an extent az TO lead TO the introduction
Of bil providing the Attorney General
with means for the enforcement Of the law
against the trusts alike.
we therefore recommend that the bill
referred TO, carrying an appropriation q
SIS. 90. be enacted into law, and that this
committee be continued and made per
manent with authority to oct under the
direction of the Attorney. General in the
investigation Of the Ueef trust

MERGER OF ARTISTS PLANNED
ACADEMT AND SOCIETY FORGET
Why THEY ONCE PARTED.

FIRST They VIII Get Together. Then Move
on the 6ity for Aid Toward Great
Art institute With Exhibitions All
the Year Peace Committees busy
The Society Of American Artists, which
was formed in 1877 by members 10 oe ling
from tho National Academy Of Design,
is satisfied 20 let bygones be bygones and
to merge back into the parent body. II
ever thcra was foud between the two
groups the present generation has for
Cotton tho reason for IT, There Is no longer
any animus in one society against the
other Only yesterday committees Of
three met and il was practically agreed
10 put tho merger TO vote at the annual
meetings in May.
II was reported yesterday that other
organizations, as for instance the Ten
American Painters, who In their turn
seeded from the Society Of American
Artistic, would also be glad TO merge into
the academy. The purpose, according
to a prominent member Of the academy
and the society, is a firm alliance, offensive
as we'll as defensive That u to say, once
all these artist folk are merged into ono
body they will be In position 10 ask the
city for aid.
On this point John W. Alexander. the
portrait painter, said yesterday;
Every large city in tbs country except
New York has its art institute. There u a
splendid one in Chicago, and even Lincoln,
Neb. has one II New York gave a large
building like that we could have exhil itiCns
all the wear round. We could have one
eXhit ition answering to the Sc Ion Of Paris.
Then all the various societies covering
various phases Of iCtoriEl art could have
exhibits We could even have exhibits
Of colonial furniture.
A merger like the one Planned, according
10 an academici8n, will q easy, tecause
the academy and the society have eighty
seven members in common. OF the So
ciety's 1870 members, forty-eight are
academiCilns and thirty-nine are assO-
ciates There Is likely 10 lie no opposition
to the merger. il Is said, except such as
may come from few hBrdsheled old mem
bers who may feel thcy are SON chow being
crowded out. But as a two-thirds vote
will carry the merger, It Is said 70 be pTac-
ticP lly assured.
The charter of the rcademy at present
limits the number Of full fedged cad mi =
lar s 10 100. This number may have to be
increased when the society is absorbed.
But a change like that is not difficult.
The meetings Of the two committees
have been taking place in the studio OF
John La Fargo. Some Of the committee
men are Fred Dielrnan. II. ". watrous,
Kenyon Cox and Robert Henri. All agree
that the old hostility between the two or
CARNATIONS is dead and the best thing il
to have Just the National Academy.
EESh organization owns considerable
property. The National Academy Of De-
sign owns property valued at about $3.50, 900.
The Society Of American Artists owns an
equity in the building Of the American Fine
Arts Society. There will he no difficulty
in uniting these interests.
