London, Oct. 13.-Backed up by a
strong American syndicate the Times
has entered upon war with publishers
which promises to be fercely fought,
tn Times aiming to create a gigan-
tic book trust. Both authors and pub
fishers are intensely indignant.
The position was put in a nutshell
by one critic of the Times methods,
who said: The independent retailer,
whose margin of profits is already at
tenuated, will disappear. Publishers will
be reduced to condition of vassalage,
and will then find that the book trust
will be able to do the authors. This
means that authors will in their turn de-
pend, on the whim Of the syndicate,
which will impose any terms it likes
upon the profession Of literature.
THE same vicious circle will envelop
adv ertising,. reviewing and even serial
and dramatic rights, I need hardly sug-
,gest that such a development Of the lit
erary trust would constitute public
calamity and would produce, an utterly

Times which appeared in that paper
yesterday, made it clear that it is sole.
ly with the intention of making profits
that the American syndicate controlling

Interstate Commerce Commissioner
Prouty produces his report on the great
land frauds along the Union Pacific

Others Thought Guilty.
Sensational as they have been the
revelations about affairs in Union Pa

scratched the surface. Other big rail-
road and Industrial companies are said
to present opportunities for just as re-
markable developments, involving. the

to report, is likely to come in for some
searching inquiry that will prove dis,

The phases of the situation are un-

The metal tungsten is remarkable for
the great density Of its alloys, and on
this account, since the introduction OF
reUeating rifles of small caliber, many
attempts have been made to flatten tho
trajectory of the bullets by augmenting
their density through the addition of
tungsten. This fact has led to sim
gular situation with regard to the
tungsten deposits found in the eastern
part of France that have hitherto been
exploited by German company. The
question is now seriously debated
whether the French government should
not assume entire control of this supply

According to an estimate recently
published. the total amount of deposits
held by national banks. savings banks,
state and private banks and loan and
trust companies in the United States
reaches more than S12.000000,000. This
is an average of not far from $3.50 per
capita, including men, women and chill
dren in the calculation. 1t Is known
that in the savings banks alone the de-
positors number more than 100000.
