Yankee Notions in England.

New York, Aug, 2S,-Identically the
same articles sold in the five and ten
cent stores of this country are priced
in England at one penny and two
pence, or two and four cents, respect
lively. This statement is made by the
millionaire proprietor of chain OF
over three hundred five and ten-cent
stores scattered throughout the Unit
ed States, who has recently opened a
number of such shops in London and
other English cities. The margin of
profit, he asserts. is no greater here
than in Great Britain, the absence OF
tariff. cheap labor and low cost of do
ing business in England accounting
for the great difference in price.

TOBACCO TRUST
REORGANIZATION

New York, Aug. 2S.-Today Is thu
last day for the deposit with the pro
tective committees of the 6 per cen
bonds, the 4 per cent bonds and the
Ipreferred stock of the American To
bacco Company, under the reorganiza
tion plan rendered necessary byntht
decision of the United States supreme
court on May 20, last, that the con
Germ was an illegal trust. 1t is under
stood that practically all the holders
have surrendered their securities to
the committees which are given power
to prepare readjustment plan in sat
isfaction of the decision of the court.
1t was apparently desired that sub
stantial majority of each class of Sc
curities give authority to the commit
tees to act before the plan is sub
mitted to the court to obviate any
chance that the plan might be held up
| through the action of some stock.
holder or bondholder. The tobacco
trust" has a much harder problem to
solve than the Standard Oil Company,
as all the latter had to do was to carry
out the express mandate of the court
and distribute the stock of the sub
sidiary companies to the stockholders
of the New Jersey corporation. In the
oil trust case the question of the con-
sent of the stockholders was hardly
a factor
In the case of the tobacco company,
however, the security holders loom
large, and one purpose of the forma-
ton of the protective committees was
to secure uniformity of action among
the holders of the several kinds of
securities and with the management
of the company, which comedies large
ly with the holders OF the bulk of the
common stock. 1t is believed that If
only small minority refused to APP
prove the plans of the management
the court would be inclined to dis
regard its objections against the pre-
ponderating sentiments of the Others
Initial steps toward the final dissolu-
ton of the Standard Oil Company will
also be taken this week. The oil trust
will be split up into thirty-three COM
panies, which will conduct their re-
spective businesses separately. There
were about sixty concerns named as
defendants in the suit first brought
against the oil trust, but the actions
against nearly half of them were dis
missed by the lower court, and the
final decision held that only thirty
three companies were liable to punish
ment under the Sherman antitrust
law. These are the ones which will be
operated separately under the pro-
posed reorganization scheme.
1t is stated that the cost OF opera
ton of both the oil and tobacco COM
panies will be considerably increased
by the dissolution. Each of the sepa-
rate companies will have to have dis
tinct executive heads, offices, stats,
statesmen and advertising departments,
and the cost of producing and distrib-
uting their products will be increased |
in dozens of other ways. The result !
will be great reduction in dividends |
or an increase in the price to the con-
sumner. The latter is considered more !
probable.

Il say that my state will not only in

line with an unbroken chain of decisions
coming down from the highest judicial
body in the land, from the earliest day to
the present
1T will respect courts and court de-
oisions But as a condition precedent to
all this, it demands that court opinions
stay within well-marked lines and respect
the sovereign power of these states in the

HadIey's Address.
Governor Hadley said;
The question as to the right to regulate
within their limits the rates Of transporta-
ton of railroad companies engaged in inter-
state commerce, which is now pending be-
fore the supreme court of the United States
for decision is in my opinion one of the
most important If not the most important
question with which that court has had to
deal in recent years. For the question Of
transportation is the most important ques-
ton OF commerce and, in fact, of civiliza-
ton itself.
The importance and far-reaching effect
of the decision that will be rendered upon
this point can hardly be overestimated II
the right OF regulation OF the rates of trans
pertatton IN interstate commerce shall be
denied the several states then there will be
enjoyed by the railroad companies the
right 70 fix intrastate rates of transporta-
ton free from any supervision or regula-
ton.
And they will thus be enabled to levy a
tribute upon the people of the several
states, the amount of which shall be lin
tied only by their own necessities or de-
sire for gain. Further than this, the denial
OF the right Of the several states to regu-
late 5he rates of transportation in intra-
state traffic will, as an inevitable and logi.
cal result, result in the denial of the right
OF the states to regulate or supervise the
conduct Of any business interstate in its
character If thereby the conduct of that
business in interstate commerce is directly
affected or hurdened.
