Works Game on Car Men.-A new
game is being worked on street car
conductors in the tri-citieS or at least
it was tried on a Moline conductor
Wednesday evening. The conductor
on a Fifteenth street car was collect
ing his fares and one of the paSsen-
gers gave him dollar. The conduc-
tor counted out the change, laid ii in
the mans hand and passed on. The
fellow deftly tucked one dime under
another coin when the conductor was
not looking and then called him back
and informed him that he had not re-
ceived enough change. The conductor
never dreamed but what probably he
had made a mistake for the fellow had
the money spread out in his hand just
as il had been given him, and it was
easy to see that he was u dime short.
The trick would have worked had not
another conductor who was on the
platform recognized the fellow as a
man who had worked the same game
on him. He called TO the other con-
ductor to look under the half dollar
lying in the mans hand. and sure
enough there lay the other dime. The
fellow grinned sheepishly and pocket
ed his change.

TO HEAD CONSOLIDATED GAS
Cortelyou Said to Be Slated fol-
Position.

Washington, Jan 13.-Frends Of
George b. Cortelyou secretary of the
treasury have heard on what seemed
to be sufficient authority that he is to
become president of the Consolidated
Gas company. When the report was
carried to Mr. Cortelyou by a cores
pondent he declined to discuss il in
any way, neither confirming nor deny
ing it,
There have been rumors here for
some time that Mr.. Cortelyou was pre-
pairing to make his home in New York
some time in the coming spring Mr.
Cortelyou has made it a habit. how
ever, not to discuss such matters un-
til he was ready to make a positive
announcement. and so there has been
nothing definite concerning the rum
ors.
1t is known that the secretary has
received many fattering offers from
business and financial houses. There
have been many especially in the last
few weeks. They have come from all
over the country. but have been most
numerous from New York. Some of
them have been from the West and
Northwest.
Secretary Cortelyou, however. pre-
fers to make his home in New York.
He was born and brought up in that
state and has always had his home
there, so that it was natural for him
to prefer to accept one of the New
York opportunities to others equally
as attractive in other ways outside
| that state.

THE SHERMAN ACT.

Thomas Thatcher of the New YORK
bar has an important article IN the
current number OF one OF the leading
magazines on Mr.. TAFT and the Sher-
man act prohibiting combinations OF
every kind Ii is everywhere admitted
that experience in the application OF
the Sherman act TO affairs has proved
the necessity OF certain cardinal
changes in its provisions. Some OF
the wisest and most adequate sugges-
tons in that direction have been made
IN certain public utterances BY Presi-
dent Taft, and Mr.. Thacher in his
article anaiyzes these suggestions and
urges them upon congress. as indi-
eating the nature of the changes that
should be made in the Law. The aim
OF any revision of the law which may
be attempted should be TO make com
petition free in the interest OF CON
sumers. and 10 restrain competition
in the interest OF the weaker among
competing producers and traders. Mr..
Thscher says:
at is submitted that the first ques-
ton 10 be put IN the proposed inquiry.
IS, whether -monoDolizing, given a
somewhat broad meaning, does not

should operate That word is OF in
definite meaning. II includes some
things which certainly should not be
condemned, some which have been
held not 10 be within the act as IT IS.

things included must be classified, as
denounced or not denounced; and the
classification may perhaps be based
10 some extent on the methods By
which. or the intention With which,
power 10 monopolize shall have been
acquired. But IS il not true that what.

tically. perhaps, should not the sec
ond section OF the act be taken as ths
basis of the amended act and the frs
section be thrown aside except so IA
as it may aid in defining or limiting
