ACCUSE TRUSTS Of
BACKING ANT|-PACT
FIGHT IN DOMINION
Reciprocity Advocates in
Canada Open Campaign
With Corruption Charge.

OTTAWA, Ontario. Aug. 12-With the
issues closely drawn and nearly all
Of the parliament candidates in the
field. the real battle for supremacy in
Canadian politics began in earnest to-
day.
The authorization writs are now in
the hands of all of the officials. and
from now until the polls open on
September 2, the struggle will con-
tinue. The fight promises to eclipse
all previous contests in bitterness.
Reciprocity with the United States
will be the one great issue. Already
advocates of this measure, fathered
by the present liberal government,
are raising the cry Of corruption
They insist the fight against the
agreement is being financed by the
great interests Of the United States
opposed to any weakening of their
tariff barrier.
This argument is laughed at by Op-
position Leader Borden, who said to-
day that the conservatives are per-
fectly capable Of financing their own
cause
In the province of Quebec reciproc-
ity is being regarded as a big is
sue, the conservatives there denounc-
ing the naval policy of the Govern
ment. The fight here is particularly
bitter and party lines are badly
broken.
Whitney and his officials are ar
every one of them will stump the
country against reciprocity. The en-
tire parliamentary ticket will be COM

INQUEST SHIELD
OVERTALIANBOY
Little CASA Falcona Now eeved to Have Been Fatally
Injured in Fall From Steps of Huck-
ster's Wagon.

Coroner Ramsay hewitt Is conducting
an inquest at the District morgue this
morning to determine the cause of the
death of little CASA Falcona, the six
year-old Italian boy who was found
unconscious in the arms Of his eight
year-old sister at First street and New
York avenue northwest yesterday
morning, and who was removed to
Homeopathic Hospital, where he died
several hours later.
Last night DR.. Charles s. White, the
deputy coroner, performed an autopsy
on the body of the little boy, and at
the inquest now in session he will be
asked to tell the exact nature OF the
injuries which resulted in the child 8
death. 1t is understood that the autop-
sy showed that CASA Falcona died as
the result of a rupture Of the liver.
The coroner is at a loss, however, to
account for such condition resulting
his body.
Rode On Wagon Step.
Central Office Detective Henry Pratt
and Detective Fortney. of the Second
precinct, who worked on the case un-
til late last night, were of the opinion
this morning that the boy fell from
the rear step OF a huckster's wagon.
and that IN doing so he struck his side.
which caused the internal injuries
which brought about his death. Two
men who saw the boy riding on the
wagon and the driver are being heard
by the coroner's jury.
When the detectives questioned Grim

sela, sister Of the dead boy last night,
she at first denied that either she or
her brother had ridden on the step of
the huckster's wagon. but afterward
acknowledged that they had done so.
Because Of her slight knowledge of Eng
lish, 1t was only after great difficulty
that the two detectives persuaded the
girl to tell them. Evidently believing
that she would be held responsible for
first afraid to tell the detectives Of the
ride.
Autopsy At Hospital.
The detectives this morning declared
that they had failed to come across
any clue that might indicate that
CASA Falcona received his fatal in
juries as the result of foul play.
A witness whose testimony it is
believed will go a long way toward
solving the mystery surrounding the
death Of the Italian boy, is Miss Mar
garet Brennan, of 3S New York aV-
enue northwest, who found him un-
conscious in the arms OF his sister ana
who then carried him to a hospi
Contrary to what is the 1sua5 Gus
tom Coroner hewitt gave DR.. White,
the deputy coroner, permission last
night to perform the autopsy on the
body of CASA Falcona at Homeo-
pathic Hospital instead of at the
morgue. The boys parents were
anxious that the body be turned over
to them as soon as possible. This
morning the coroners jury were
taken to the hospital and was sworn
in over the body. 1t then returned
to the morgue for the inquest

ELECTRICAL TRUST
TO BUST" ITSELF,
FEARING COURTS
Compromise Reached With
Government-lmmunity
Is Not Promised.

Rather than take chances In the
courts, the Electrical trust has COM
promised with the Department OF JUS
tice, and, according to information to-
day, shortly will dissolve in accordance
with plans submitted to Attorney Gen
eral Wickersham.
1t was said today that attorneys for
the trust had conferred with officials
at the department, submitted a num-
Der of tentative compromises, and now
are only awaiting the word from At
torney General Wickersham to begin
the work of disintegration. The Gov
ernment's suit will be dropped after
the department is convinced tnat the
trust has busted" itself.
Officials at the department today
pointed out the fact that the activity
against combinations had resulted in Il
number of minor trusts voluntarily
dissolving, fearing they would be de-
PENDANTS in suits under the Sherman
law.
Attorney General Wickersham does
not promise these combinations any
immunity for their voluntary dissolu-
ton.

Change Ordered.
So the Joint committee determined
to order a change, thereby throwing
over an order of things that had ex-
listed since time immemorial, or at
least since 1874. The members accept
ed the change gracefully, since 1t puts
everybody on an equal footing and

LEARNING TO COOPERATE.

Before much can be accomplished
ii the way of organized cooperation
among farmers, it will be necessary
to try to learn a few of the funda-
mental principles of cooperation in
an elementary way. There are sever
al things that farmers can do with
out ~perfecting organizations with hard
and fast rules for their government.
Small groups Of farmers can easily
form agreements to cooperate in
certain matters, such as arranging to
assemble grains or varieties Of stock
of certain standards of excellence and
Offering such products in bulk. If a
half dozen farmers or more could get
together and agree to sell their sur
plus wheat in carload lots and market
the same on a day appointed, they
could make better terms with the
buyer than they could by selling in
dividually, provided all the stuff offer
ed would come up to the same stand
ard. The same is true of selling
stock. If a few farmers could com-
bine and get together a carload of
grade cattle of uniform condition and
quality they would have no difficulty
in receiving a top price for the same.
They would then be taking their first
lesson in cooperation, which would in
time lead to still better results. We
are not sure but what buyers would
be glad to encourage suc,u move
ments; it would ave them a great
deal of extra time and expense.
Another thing, it would necessi-
tate a more careful handling of the
products of the farm in order to
maintain a standard of quality. While
helping themselves, they would be
helping their neighbors by encourag-
ing them to raise better grades of
grain and stock in participating in
such cooperative movements

PRIZE HOGS FOR BREEDING.
VI. c. Thomas.

II is the common practice with the
farmer and breeder to attend the
county, state and interstate fairs for
the purpose Of selecting from those
on exhibition swine for breeders, and
il is considered by some quite an
achievement to attend one or more of
the prominent expositions and take
home to the farm the pig decorated
with the blue ribbon.
True. they appear fine, but we must
always bear in mind they have been
pushed to their utmost capacity, and
nine times out of 10 have been ruined
for breeding purposes. Imagine the
chagrin of the credulous buyer, who,
after patient effort and toll, fails to
produce from them any stock that
looks anything like as good as the
ones at the fair.
The show yard is the place in which
to buy stock for show purposes, and
also to e what can be done with
different individual animals when
properly fitted. But 1t isn't the best
place to buy breeders. We must re
member the show pig has had the
best OF fare all its life. and to change
It's environments and expect It to
reproduce show pigs is to cherish q
