A Perilous Honeymoon.

n PeriIous honeymoon
Never was day so largely aad glo-

Lynar, Count and Countess Won Loen.
The summer floods had subsidized, and
the tawny dye had clean gone out Of

aQuamarine, and laved rather than
fretted the dark green piles q the
Summer Palace.

And the chorister's mother hobbled
of, telling everybody she met the
same story. And so in half an hour
the news had spread all over the city,
and there began to be makings OF
quite a respectable crowd in the Dom
Platz Of CORTLAND
It was half past eleven when the
archers Of the guard appeared at the
entrance Of the. square which leads
from the palace. Behind them. rank

Meanwhile. in the river palor Of the
Summer Palace, the two Princesses
we're talking together even as the peo
pie had said. The Princess Margaret
sat on a low stool, leaning her elbow
on her companions knee. And though
she sometimes looked away, II was
not for long, and Maurice. meeting
her cver-recurrent gaze, found that 9
new thing had come into her eyes.
Presently a low tapping was heard
at the inner door, from which a pass

the Princess Margaret. The Spar

with slight pressure Of her arm up
on his knee the Princess restrained

Antitrust Law.

Fear Of the existence Of such an
abuse led 10 the passage of the anti
trust law i'm 1891. II recognizes two
forms in which this evil may be
maintained. One is by an agreement
among a number of different manu-
facturers Of an article for the main
tenance Of the price Of rhe article and
the suppression Of competition. This
is denounced when the contract Is In
restraint of interstate trade as a Grim
inal offense against the United states,
punishable by fine and imprisonment.
and a conspiracy which may be re-
strained by injunction in a civil suit.
The other form IL denounced. with
similar remedies against II. as a
monopoly of interstate trade. and
covers the union Of the conspiring
companies into one company which.
by owning all the plant or nearly all
the plant, engaged In the manufacture
of the product and by use OF other
devices, controls the prices. The SUI
preme court Of the United states has
not defined what a monopoly under
this section of the antitrust law is.

Aeains the tremendous wealth and re-
sources Of the trust are eNerted to de-
stroy a rival In a particular locality
by selling at a very low price in that
neighborhood and driving him out OF
business. and then raising the prices.
This can be easily detected by the i'm
equality OF the prices which the trust
asks for the same commodity in diff
ferent localities under the same con
ditions.

Trusts.
! pass now from railway regulation
and the abuses arising in the dis.
charge Of a public function To the
evils which have grown out OF the
combinations existing in private BUSH
ness, and so come 10 the subject OF
trusts. The combination of capital In
large plants to manufacture goods
with the greatest economy is Just as
necessary as the assembling of the
parts Of a machine 10 the economical
and more rapid manufacture of what
in old times was made by hand. The
government should not interfere with
the one any more than the other. In
the proper operation Of competition
the public will soon share with the
manufactures the advantage in low
cred prices. When, however. such
combinations not only lower the cost
to themselves, but are able 10 control
the market and maintsia or raise the
old prices. the public derives no ben
eft and is helpless in the hands Of q
monopoly.

statutory Rule for Liability of
Interstate Railways TO Employees.
Finally, ii has regulated the rules
FOR the liability Of an interstate rail-
road company to an employe Injured
IN its service This is a most important
measure, for an unfortunate lack Of
uniformity has existed heretofore in
respect to the rules OF liability in such
cases, dependent OF the court in
which the case has beer tried. The
new statute makes everything uniform
as to Interstate railroads. II has in
into federal law what is
called the comparative negligence
theory by which If an employe Is in
Jured. proof OF negligence on his part
does not forfeit his claim for dana
ages entirely unless the accident was
due solely to his negligence. If there
was negligence by the company, the
jury is authorized to apportion the
negligence and award compensation
for the proper part OF the damage to
The employe and the question Of neg
iigence Is always for the jury.
Abolition OF Fellow Servant Rule.
The most important provision OF
this law. however, is that abollshine
what is known as the fellow-servant
rule by which an employe injured
cannot Recover from his employer for
injury sustained through the negli-
gence Of a co-employe. This rule
was Incorporated into the law by
Chief Justice Shaw, of Massachusetts.
on the ground Of public policy. 1t
was acquiesced in by the courts of
England and Of this country. What
ever may have been the wisdom oe
the rule originally, a change of con
justifies its abrogation. Pub
lie policy can be changed by statute.
So that this exemption from liability
Is not secured by the constitution To
the railroad companies. The aboli-
ton OF the exemption certainly fur
nishes a strong motive to the railroad
companies for the exercise of greater
care in the selection, supervision and
control of all of their employees, which
tends not only to the safety of their
employees, but also to the safety of
their passengers.

Mere Aggregation of MI Plants
In One Ownership Does
Not Suppress Competition.

II must De borne IN mind that IN a
country like this. where there is an
enormous floating capital awaiting in
vestment, the time within which COM
petition by construction of new plants
can be introduced into any business is
comparatively short, rarely exceeding
a year. and usually In even less time
than that. Many enterprises nave
been organized on the theory that
mere aggregation of all or nearly all
existing plants in a line Of manufac-
ture without regard to economy of
production, destroys competition.

Why Trust Promoters Have
Not Been Imprisoned.

Mr.. Bryan is continually asking
why have some Of the managers of
unlawful trust not been convicted and
sent 10 the penitentiary1 / sympa-
thize with him in his wish that this
may be done, because ! think that the
Imprisonment Of one or two would
have a most healthy effect through
out the country, but even without
such imprisonment / believe that the
prosecutions which are now on foot
and the iniunctions which have al
ready been issued. have had a marked
effect on business methods. one
reason for the small number Of SEN
fences of imprisonment i'm trust pros
ecutions is that the revelations Of I'M
lawful trust methods and dishonesty
have been chiefly made known in Sc
cret rebates and as / have already
said, the Elkins act. until amended by
the rate bill, only prescribes fines as
a mode Of punishment ia such cases.

The Southern Pacific pay car will ar
rive here on Saturday evening.
The committee which waited on

Led the local banks was appointed
last evening at a special meeting Of
the railroad employees to consider the
check situation The meeting was
held In the city hall and was attend
ed by about 40 Of the railroad en-
ployes.
The meeting was Informal anu ca
pressions of opinion were freely Civ
en- regarding the situation. The sen
eral sentiment appeared to be in favor
of asking for cash for the entire
amount OF the pay checks instead OF
25 per cent cash as they received
last month with certificates Tor the
remainder.
A committee was then appoInIed
to take the matter up with the Super
intendent The conference was held
at $3.50 O'Clock this morning in Sup
erintendent Averell's office.
The special committee stated that
the employees were very DESTROYS or
being paid in cash. and added that
they desired TO know II there was
not some way by which an arrange
ment could be made which would
make it possible.
They stated also taat they had
heard reports that San Francisco
clearing house certificates would be
accepted here at a discount
Superintendent AyersIl stated that
he had heard nothing to this effect
and that he did not believe that the
report had foundation. He informed
the committee also that 1t wouIu Do
too late TO get all cash now as the
pay checks and the cash and the GER
tificates had been sent from the
Southern Pacific headquarters in San
Francisco for the Tucson division.
The conference ended without any
change being made in the situation.
Members of the committee then visit
ed the local bankers. Their visit was
to determine whether it would uol
be possible to get all cash at the
banks for their checks.
They we're informed however, that
the banks could only pay out as much
cash as was sent in here by the
Southern Pacific from San Francisco
to meet the payroll. They explained
to the committee however, that the
San Francisco clearing house certii-
Gates would pass here just the same
as money and that if it were desired
to send money away, drafts could be
secured here on the banks in other
cities with the certificates just the
same as with cash.
