OBSERVATIONS.

In business 10 months.
Cleaned up a million dollars.
Fined 10000.
Busted
Net profit: 100000.
This in brief Is the history of the
late lamented window glass trust.
The Imperial Window Glass Co
began business on Jan. |, 1910. IL was
selling agency contro4iing nearly 30
glass factories and handling more than
than 80 per cent OF all the window
glass manufactured in this country
The Imperial company lost no time
in getting busy. BY Oct. !. 1910, &C
cording 70 the testimony OF the de-
partment of justice. prices had Deen
advanced 20 per cent above the level
that prevailed in April. 1909. In 10
months it cleared about million dol
lars, or 400 per cent on its capitalize
ton.
The combine, in the words OF Atty
Gen. Wickersham. was "one OF the
most fragrant and intentional viola
tons OF the antitrust law that has
been brought TO the attention OF the
department"
So the department necessarily got
busy also and busted" the trust. The
federal court at Pitsburg went so far
as to fine the company the enormous
sum Of $4,000, and each OF the Is men,
bers OF the company $500. The com
pany loudly protested its innocence
OF intentional wrongdoing. yet, curious
enough, made no defense TO the charge
brought against 1t.
What Is a court to do when a trust
at once protests its innocence and
confesses its guilt?
A cruel and inconsiderate Judge
would probably send somebody to Jail
The Pittsburg Judge was neither
cruel nor inconsiderate. He took in
10 consideration the fact that the
trust had been dissolved. And is II
not a more horrible punishment than
going to Jail TO be made TO relinguish
graft yielding as much as a million
dollars In 10 months? The Pittsburg
Judge must have thought So Anyhow
he gave the glass magnates So.

If the earth should pass through the
tail of Halley's comet, as astronomers
expect it will on the 18th of May next,
an opportunity of kind that has not
previously occurred in the history of the
weather bureau will be offered for the
study of certain meteorological phenom-
ena. Owing to the position of the moon
on the given dates, it is probable that
the most satisfactory night observations
will be obtained during the last two or
three hours before daylight. Please OBJ
serve as many of the following phe-
nomena as you understand and feel ca
pable of handling:
81. Auroral displays -Auroras serve as
indicators of the electrical state of the
outer atmosphere, and as this state pos
sibly may be affected by the tail of the
comet as we pass through it, auroras
should be watched for at that time. The
location, color, shape, extent and other
features, as well as the times of ap-
pearance, changes and disappearance
should all be carefully noted.
''2 Meteoric trails The number, times
of appearance, lengths of duration, and
directions and lengths of visible paths
of meteors should he noted on all three
nights, but especially on the night OF
the 18th.
''3. Bishops ring-This curious dust
halo was seen around the sun after the
eruptions both of Krakatoa and Mont
Pele, and conceivably might also fol.
low the passage Of the earth through
the tail of a comet. 1t therefore should
be carefully looked for on the days
specified, and, occasionally, for. some
days thereafter. AS the light of this
ring is rather faint, observations of ii
are best made when the sun is bidder
behind some steeple or other Opaque
object.
"a. Color of the sun and sky-Both the
general color of the sky and the color
of the sun depend on the dust and 9TH
er contents of the atmosphere, and
should be carefully noted on the given
dates.-Ex.
