HAS SCHEME TO CURB TRUSTS
New York Lawyer Submits Plan to
President Roosevelt.
Would Take Matter Out of Hands of
Interstate Commerce Commission
and other Agencies.

A scheme for regulating corporations by
means Of a judge and Jury, instead Of by
the interstate Commerce Commission ami
other machinery in use at present. has
been presented to the President by John
r. Dos Passos. a lawyer Of New York.
The essential features OF the scheme in
the words of the author are;
"First-The act. contract, or combina-
ton must be Injurious 30 the public. This
meets an objection TO the Sherman law,
which. il has always been argued with
more or less force, assails all commercial
combinations. whether reasonable or un-
reasonable.
''SeCond-The act, contract, or combina-
ton must be passed on by a jury. This
is where the subject legitImately belongs.
It primarily should be left 70 the people
TO decide whether certain acts are iniuri-
Gus to their welfare or not. Heretofore
these questions have been LETT to the
Judges 1t was too great a burden for the
judiciary.
'ThiTd-The proceeding under this act
(the act proposed by Mr.. Dos Passos) is
summary. No one will hereafter recklessiy
defy the law. II he does, forfeiture and
sure punishment await him. 1t is gener-
ally provided that all acts, combinations.
&c, against interstate trade or commerce
injurious to the. people Of the United
States are Illegal II is left to the Jury
TO determine what acts are injurious and
to the judge to decide whether they fall
within the commerce clause Of the Con
stitution."
In concluding his letter to the Presi-
dent, Mr.. Dos Passos says:
Mr. President, I am not unconscious
that in making these suggestions I am
doing real service 10 the people Of the
United States. If they need additional
enforcement from legal or historical
sources, l shall feel il my duty 20 lend
you further aid"

ORBY IS AFTER KINGS CUP
Croker's Great Three-year-old to
Run in Irish Derby.
VIII Race Best Horses i'm Britain for
Special Trophy offered
by Edward VII.

London. June added honors are IN
store for Richard Croker and his great
Derby winner Orby. The Irish Derby. for
three-year-olds. which is run at the
Leopardstown course in Ireland. will it
is now declared, be the scene of another
great turf event 10 be sponsored by the
King who will offer handsome sold
cup as the incentive for the entrance Of
the best three-year-old i'm training.
Mr.. Croker will readily enter Orby for
the race. and he is quoted as saying that
the winning OF an Irish Derby would give
him as uuch pleasure. If not satisfaction.
as did the winning Of the classic English
turf event
Orby came out of the running of the
Derby fresh and rs playful as a kitten.
indicating the immense reserve power
contained in the wonderful racer Mr.
Croker directed that the animal be given
every attention. and before joining his
friends In the celebration which followed
the victory gave personal attention to
directing the nature of the care and at
tention which Orby should receive.
When Mr.. Croker. two years ago was
not allowed 10 train his horses over the
Newmarket course while English own
ers were thus being favored, he declared
then that Newmarket was not indispensa-
BILE 10 the training Of a Derby winner.
Lord Rothschild asked me-. said Mr.
Croker to-day, when asked if he did not
find himself at a disadvantage i'm not be
ing able TO train Orby over the New
market course. where I trained the colt.
I told him that I had a bit Of a cabbage
patch in Ireland where Orby received
his training and that / thought that my
patch was the equal Of half a dozen New
markets. particularly if one had an
Irish-American horse TO train.
There is a disposition among certain
sections of the press with yellow pro-
clivities TO interpret Mr. Croker's failpra
TO receive an invitation 20 the Kings
Derby dinner last night as a direct royal
snUb 1t is Contended that il is Gus
tomary for the owner Of the winning
horse 10 receive such an invitation. and
that when Mr.. Whitney won the Derby
he was so honored. Such a contention
is entirely without foundation.
The Kings dinner is essentially given
to friends-fellow-mem of the Jockey
Club-and if it happened that most Of the
owners whose horses took part in the
race were present. it was merely because
they happened also to be intimates Of
the King.

CAT SERENADES CARDINAL.
Feline Makes Night HideOus in
Front of ArchicpiscopaI Residence.

SPECIAL - The Washington Herald.
Baltimore, June 6.-The wailing Of cat
near the residence Of Cardinal Gibbons at
II o'clock last night attracted the atten-
ton of the policeman who guards the
home of his eminence and a number Of
pedestrians, who were for long time
puzzled as to the location Of the sound.
Il was finally learned that the cries
came from the top Of tall tree in front
of the north window Of the residence
near the Charles street side of the house.
but the problem of getting pussy down
was enough to stump an athlete. as the
tree was tall. with no branches near the
ground. Several persons tried to climb it
and failed.
The cat had ensconced herself in a
crotch of the limbs about forty feet from
the ground and was evidently too fright
ened to respond TO any Of the invitations
10 come down and be good. Meanwhile
the appealing ''meows' rent the air
Finally. about u o'clock a boy with tough

Crossed Signals

In the seventh inning, when
Hughes was on second and Blanken-

is the signal for a three-sacker.
