HE DROPPED DEAD
WHILE IN CHURCH

An Athens, Ala, special of May 16
says: A very sad and strange incident
took place at Mt Hope Church, sit
uateC eight miles east of Athens Mon
day night A protracted meeting was
being held there by Pastor Cobb and
he was assisted by Jerry Brannen,
the Nashville lad, who has been here
for some time. That night the boy
Pre-: cher had delivered a sermon of
power and one which touched the
hearts of those who heard him, and at
the close he asked for penitents, md
young man of the neighborhood re-
sponded and knelt at the altar. He
asked then that all Christians in the
congregation come forward and join
in the prayer. Among those to go for
ward was Mrs. James ID. Hacker, one
Of the best known and most beloN ed
women of the community. She knelt
az the side of the lad who WIS
nejghbor, and young Brannen was IF
fering a prayer when she was seen to
throw mp her hand and fall to he-
side, and when those nearest her
reached her she was dead. The incl
dent occasioned a great deal of en-
citement- She was buried yesterday
at her home. She was in her usual
health, and died as she has lived,
close to the Savior

Kaiser,s Trust TO Co ON Rack.

The most stupendous trust inquiry
ever undertaken by the Interstate Com
merce Commission was yesterday decided
upon-so stupendous thst ii involves the
German Emperor's policy to make his
empire shipping mistress of the seas-as
the result of the filing of charges against
the Hamburg American Packet Com
pany, disclosing an ironclad trust in
transatlantic freight carrying combine
accused ofdefying the United States laws
and using the most drastic of illegal
coercion. The character of the inquiry
will differ from any heretofore under
taken, in having an international scope
aud involving the German government
itself
The complainant is the Cosmopolitan
Shipping Company, of Philadelphia,
operating liues to Rotterdam, LeiIh and
Copenhagen. The inquiry which the
company thus sets on foot will have to
deal with an alleged combination between
railroads in the United States and the
German shipping concern, and, there
fore, interests every American producer,
manufacturer, or shipper aspiring 10 in-
trOduce his goods to foreign consumers.
The question raised by the Philadel-
phia shipping company is thus both of a
national and international character,
charging, as it does, that the huge COM
bine is a monopoly in restraint of trade
ia its almost absolute control of east
bound and west-bound traffic between
inferior points of the United States and
Hamburg, and further that it maintains
a lsw-dt flying pool in New York city,
which dictates the rail and ocean routes
by which freight FOR Baltic ports shall
be shipped, the percentage of traffic each
steamship line in the pool shall carry,
and the percentage Of export business
that shall pass through Boston, New
York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Norfolk
aud Newport News.
In other words, it is charged that this
great foreign corporation, backed by the
German government, dictates all over
the United States terms, route and rates
to shippers who forward goods to Ham
burg and Baltic ports, and further, that
it diyerts freight tC and from American
ports at its own will, without regard to
the natural flow of trade, using cOercive
and unlawful methods to crush compe-
ton.
