U. S. dOyERNMENrs vac on RUSS

The government has taken quite an
unexpected step in stopping the ship
ment of consignment Of tobacco from
Virginia to the British-Ameriean To-
bacco Company, on the ground that
the shipment is in contravention of the
Sherman antitrust act. All the facts
in the case indicate that the govern
ment is quite within the law 10 doing
this, but it is the first time that this
clause in the law has been invoked,
and 1t Is causing some comment. The
British-Americap Company is an of
shoot Of the American Tobacco Com
pany, against which the government
now hBs pending a suit for dissolution
1t Is a company that was formed at the
time Of the 50 called American Invas-
lOn' of England after the American to-
oaccO trust and the English truat had
fought each other to a standstill. The
company has its home Offices in London
and is partially differed by directors
Of the English trust; but it has an or
ganic connection with the American
trust, so that this action of the govern
ment against it is quite within the law.
If the government intends to invoke
this foreign clause of the Sherman law
against trusts and com binations, it will
ait number of big trusts that do bust
ness both here anc abroad. It will get
the Beef Trust, the Standard Oil Com
pany, the Steel Trust and the Sulphur
Trust, which is wholly foreign con-
Germ bat which does busin ess in the
United States. Invoking this branch
Of the law seems to indicate that the
department of Justice is going into the
trust fight without fear and favor. If
it does, there will be number of the
big business combinations made des-
perately unhappy. But it will be a
notice to the world at large that the
Department means business, and some
of the trusts; emulating Col Crokett's
coon, may come down without shoot
ing.

The illustrious men in history who

him and mature women longed for his

were renowned in like manner were
Sir Philip Sidney. plain almost to ny

and Rousseau. whose manners were

Owing to the friction and pressure to
which toe nails are exposed In all per-

a great tendency to thickenlng on the
underpart Of the free growth. the por-

toe point This thickened part some
times gets pressed against the flesh,

The preventive treatment is to keep
the nails cut short and to remove the

SPA, 946.03 advanced by Devlin for
the Belt Line Coal company, a COM
pany which HORNE claimed to have
organized; note of $7,737 which with
interest amounted to S9,024.07 given
by HORNE to Devlin for money loaned.
The interest which HORNE is alleged
to have had in the Belt Line Coal
company and the w. H. HORNE COM
pany is all fictitious say the trustees;
he did all of his business on borrowed
capital and Devlin furnished practi-
cally all of it they claim.
In the HORNE company organized to
act as a brokerage firm for the Devlin
companies to float bonds, HORNE
claimed to have. with his daughter and
son, the majority of the stock in this
company which was capitalized for
$4,000. 1t develops that Devlfn had
at least $4,000 stock in the company
and it is claimed that the remaining
amount held by HORNE was secured
through moneys secured originally
from Devlin companies or from him
directly.
The Belt Line Coal company. which
forms the basis of the other claim
against HORNE, is an Illinois corpora
ton.
HORNE was formerly a national bank
examiner but beyond that nothing
much is known about him. He be-
came connected with Devlin in the
expansion of the latter's companies
and in this way came into prominence
locally. k1ght AFTER the levin ldAulC
HORNE was at the head of the move
ment which was talked of among the
creditors looking to the reorganization
of all the companies into one holding
company and differed by Leading
creditors HORNE talked largely at
this time of the plans of the holding
company and also of the claims which
he and his company personally had
against the G. ]. Devlin estate. There
is an inclination to look on HORNE,
however. now with less favor while
the trustees have estimated HORNE as

claim that doesn't exist upon the es-
tate in order to make some money ana

to the national association and allow
ing them to act out their own saliva
ton. However they have failed to take
the hint and now the national asSocia-
ton will pass on the case again, and
this time there can be no room for
doubt as to their decision. When they
go into the evidence in the case there
will be but two courses for them to
pursue. They will pass upon the draft
as was agreed to by Shively, and make
this stick. as the money has been ac-
cepted; or else they will take a direct
method of rebuking the action of the
national association in refusing to
make their laws on this subject of
drafting fairer in their effect. They
will declare the part of the consti-
tuition unconstitutional which prohib-
less there is a vacancy. Either way
they may proceed there will be one
result, and that will be that Topeka
will go to the Western league
Mr. Cantillon also discussed the atti-
tude of the Wichita management in re-
gard to the disruption of the Western
association circuit. Il can see that
Wichita is very Jealous of Topeka"
said the Senator'S manager, land that
they would sooner got into the Western
league than to have Topeka go there
They have not got backbone enough,
however. to say anything against Shive-
ly and consequently they will probably
stay there in the Western association
where they are at even now. They have
wired Farrell for several days and have
received no word although understand
the Wichita papers have printed several
letters from Farrell.
II am not a bit afraid that Topeka
will not be in the Western league and
I have talked with two of the members
of the national commission myself and
have found that both Ban B. Johnson
and Garry Hermann see the Injustice of
the present conditions and are favorable
to our plans for strengthening our cir
suit
Mr.. Cantillon was a warm personal
friend of the late Chick Stahl and felt
very badly this morning over his sud-
den death. Il have known Chick for
years and he was one of the most gem
tlemanly ball players I ever met and
was one OF the best managers in the
business. 1 can think of nothing which
would cause him to end his life in the
manner he did"
Mr.. Cantillon this morning sent
wire to his friends in the east asking
them to see that flowers were ordered
in his name for StahPs funeral.
Stahl was for several years the man
ager of the Washington team and only
quit thisc team last fall. Most of the
men who are here today played last
year and all hold Stahl in the greatest
respect. Jack Warner, the old time
catcher, said this morning: He was

This afternoon a hearing is being

he filed last summer against the estate
for a vague statement of services
which he claimed to have: performed
