Washington, u. c.. July THE bill
introduced day or two ago by Senator
Newlands TO establish an Interstate
trade commission is creating interest
all over the country. Senator New
lands being asked to-day to state what
his bill contemplates and what 1T pro-
poses to accomplish, said:
The Standard OIL and tobacco trust
decisions, with the recent report on the
steel industry. demonstrate what ! have
contended for many years-that there
Is need of an independent. quasi judi
ciel and administrative tribunal of
great character and dignity, as far re-
moved from partisan control as are the
courts. for the continuous control OF
the big industrial corporations engaged
in interstate trade Had such legisla-
tlon been secured in place or in aid OF
the Sherman act over twenty years
ago, we would have advanced as far in
the regulation of Industrial corpora
lions s we have in that of railroads.
The recent expressions of Mr.. Gary
and others Indicate that even the great
corporate managers recognize that
public regulation is now inevitable
The bill which l have introduced
provides for an interstate trade com
mission of five members. which shall
control industrial corporations, as the
Interstate Commerce Commission does
the railroads. The Bureau Of Cor
porations. which has for number of
years been investigating Industrial cor
porations, and which has a most com
petent force OF over 100 men. is by this
bill separated from the Department of
Commerce and Labor and merged in
the commission of interstate trade. The
Commissioer of Corporations is made a
member of the new commission.
The bill requires that all industrial
corporations engaged In Interstate
trade whose annual receipts exceed So
100000 shall make satisfactory state
ments s to capitalization. finances and
operations as may be required by the
commission. Such corporations are to
be known as United States registered
companies. The distinction of being
thus registered Will be sought by all
such companies. and TO lack IL will be
regarded as an indication that there is
something wrong. Frequent reports
Will be required from all such cor
porations. and the information OF pub
lie interest VIII be published from time

Among the curious Christmas pres

OF national reputation. which has been
all year In the making.
Way last January the present was
decided upon. and friend OF the prom

to watch every paper in America and
to take UP every Item which appeared
concerning the man.
The clipping bureau people followed
instructions. and now present the his
tory OF one year in the life of this

The history ends just after election.
and the 2o.6i2 newspaper items found
include everything from a three-line
editorial mention to full-page illus
trated stories. These have been mount
ed on 3,200 great sheets of Irish linen
paper and bound into three massive
volumes
At the head of each item is the name
and date of paper clipped from, this
Information having been put in with
book typewriter. The words thus In
serted amount to 153.252.

SEAL LIFE WILL
Be P ROTECTE D
Final Signatures Are Affixed to
Treaty, and ItNow Goes to
Senate.

Washington July THE final sigma
lures were affixed to the treaty for the
protection of seal life shortly before
noon at the State Department, and the
convention will be submitted immedi-
ately to the Senate.
Ambassador Bryce left Washington
to-day for the coast of Maine to be
gone until October. His absence will
not delay the conclusion of the negotia-
tons for general arbitration treaty.
BY the terms of the seal treaty pela :
gic scaling is prohibited in nle seas
of Bering. Okhotsk. Kamchatka and
Japan. The convention arranges for
apportlonments of the annual proceeds
OF the several seal herds as follows
Thirty per cent. of the skins taken
from the American and Russian herds
respectively is divided equally between
Great Britain and Japan: thirty per
cent from the Japanese herds divided
equally among the United States. Great
Britain and Russia: and thirty per
cent. from any herds which may here
after resort TO the breeding grounds
under British jurisdiction in the North
Pacific Ocean Is TO be divided equally
among the United States. Russia and
Japan
The United states will make an ad-
vance payment of 100000 TO Great
Britain and Japan each. These pay
mcnts are to be refunded to this coun-
try out OF the proceeds of the British
and Japanese share OF skins taken from
the American herds. The convention
also prohibits the hunting OF sea offers
on the high seas.
The treaty Will extend for Nfteen
years and thereafter until terminated
by one years notice by any OF the pow
ers concerned.
An interesting feature Is a paragraph
prohibiting the Importation OF seal
skins into the territory OF any of the
parties to the convention when taken
by PelaGlc sealers. The original gray
seal skin is practically worthless UNI
less carefully tanned and dyed which
can be done to perfection only in Lon
don. so that the market for pela q C
seal skins Is practically destroyed by
this provision.
Another feature of importance is ii
provision for the maintenance OF "A
patrol of the seal waters By all OF the
parties TO the convention
