The Steel Trust.

Andrew Carnegie, at the opening OF
the Roosevelt campaign in 1904. in a
burst of partisan philanthropy, said he
would give one million dollars to the
republican campaign fund to elect Mr.
Roosevelt. Did his liberal donation
have the effect of enervating the judi
cial arm of the government? 1t does
look so. for there has been no attempt
TO prosecute the steel trust and it must
be remembered that Mr. Carnegie owns
$500. 900, 900 of the steel trust bonds.
As Mr.. Roosevelt has discovered that
the question of revising the tarif
stands wholly apart from the question
of dealing with the so-called trusts
that is, with the control of monopolies
and with the supervision of great
wealth in business, especially in cor
porate form Is it possible that Pres
ident Roosevelt does not know. or for
partisan purposes denies, that such
"so-called trusts" as the steel trust, the
sugar trust and most manufacturing
combinations that are complete or par
tial monopolies, have been created and
could not exist without tariff protec-
ton against foreign competition
The protective tariff was the mother
of those trusts and is still nursing those
luSty infants.

Failures Are Few

Insolvency statistics constitute one
of the most trustworthy barometers OF
the state of trade; for panics and de
pressions are always preceded by
losses which are reflected in the TIA
bles of commercial mortality. 1t is an
important fact, therefore, that Brad
streets tables show that the insOlven-
cies last month were smaller than in
any preceding month for seven years.
The aggregate liabilities were swell
ed by the suspension of the Real Es-
tate Trust company in Philadelphia
and the Milwaukee Avenue bank III

cies, is exceptionally small
