AlIENDMENTs no sHERMAN ~.
PresidentIncIined to Approve The
Only on Conditions.

a recent press dispatch from Wash.
ington says that President Taft is not
inclined to approve any amendments
to the Sherman antitrust law. unless
1t becomes apparent that congress win
not pass Federal incorporation act
MT. Taft is anxious to have son1e
Legislation to clear up the situation
Tor business men so they may realiza
exactly where they stand, but he made
II plain that he preferred to see tlla
changes in the regulations of CON-
merce accomplished through Federal
charters which could provide for COR
poratfons of certain defined Iimitatioun
He let it be-. known If that shonIfs
prove possible he would endorne
amendments to the Sherman law
pointing out specifically what big bua-
mess may not do.
It is the Presidents idea that If thaF
Sherman law be amended 1t should d.
fine specifically what constitutes Of
lenses against It. Crushing of compo-
titon, combination to ruin competitorw
or to raise prices and other acts OF the
Kind, should be specifically named in
his opinion.
President Taft also believes that the
II 4kA<1Uo, SAOI1Q De Ir8Gk~
ed so as to make it unnecessary for
the government to prove that com
bination which has come to operate ii
restraint of trade, originally was in
tended for that purpose as is not the
case. In the Standard Oil suit the De-
partment of Justice had to begin with
the company's record more than thirty
years ago and work down to date to
prove that the combinations were m
tended to crush competition.
There would be considerable risk IN
any attempt to amend the Sherman
law, the President has been told and
it is believed he shares that view. He
has made it plain, however, that he
will not sympathize with any attempt
to emasculate the Sherman law, and
he again today expressed the sentI-
ment which he embodied in his Pitts
burg speech-that he had no sympathy
with the fact that business men did not
know when they were doing wrong.
After a recent cabinet meeting the
President indicated that recommends
tons for trust legislation in his mes
sage to congress would be along these
lines. No bill will be prepared, the
President merely recommending the
legislation.

EXISTENCE OF MONEY TRUST.
VIM be Enquired Into by Democratic
Leaders.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE existence
OF money trust" is to be. inquired
into by Democratic leaders Of the
House of Representatives, who are
planning to take action on the inquiry
proposed last summer by Representa-
tive Lindburgh, OF Minnesota into the
financial system of the country.
I One Of the first matters to be taken
up by the rules committee, it was made
known today, will be the Lindburgh
resolution providing that the Speaker
appoint a committee of investigation
composed of nine members. The pur-
pose of the resolution does not con-
template opposing the work of the
monetary commission, but is based on
the promise that the present system of
money exchange and credit appears to
entail on the people enormous losses.

ling and manipulation incident to a

LONG HOURS ARE NECESSARY


NY " n ALrOllI
Many farmers claim that they can
not make a living without working
about Is hours per day. That is true.
1t is necessary for them to cultivate
three acres Of land In order to obtain
one bale of cotton or 40 bushels of
corn They have not removed the
stumps from their land and conse-
quently cannot use labor-saving farm
implements to good advantage. They
do not diversity their crops and raise
good stock and for this reason they
are exceedingly busy at one season
and idle at another season of the
year. They are always behind time,
and as result must make nine
stitches instead Of one. They do not
thoroughly prepare the land before
planting time; they do not select their
planting seed in the field in the fail:
they do not give their crops frequent
and shallow cultivation; they do not
use fertilizers In the most economical
manner. Such farmers are barely able
to exist BY working is hours per day.

American ambassador there.

ment's code book which he said he
had in his possession. He left several
specimen pages to prove that his
book was genuine. A comparison with
the embassy's code book proved that
he had the real code. but where he
had obtained It was mystery. The
ambassador knew that a new code
was In course CT preparation and
would shortly be distributed by the

since then. however. congress has
passed law covering such cases.
Early In 1908 the police department
Of New York reported to the war de-
partment that maps and military infor-
nation OF a confidential character had
been found In trunk belonging to an
American who. the police believed.
had been employed by a foreign gov
eminent His arrest had been made
IN connection with another offence
and the discovery OF these papers was
accidental.
In 1907 an American ambassador at
a foreign capital reported to the state
department that an army officer of the
country to which he was accredited
had been detailed to visit the Ameri-
can countries secretly to ascertain the
strength Of their forces. His mission
Vas thwarted. however. by the infor-
nation furnished by the ambassador.

The procedure in sending out a spy
is something like this: II the German

It cannot get In the regular channels OF
information. some ofncer is sent for.
He Is summoned to the war ONCE to
receive his instructions. In the case
Of confidential work abroad he re-
ceives oral orders so that he will not
have any documentary evidence in
case he gets into trouble. Having re-
ceived his instructions he starts out,
sometimes so secretly that even his
family do not know where he is going.
Usually he speaks the language OF the
