ALL MONOPOL|ES
 MUST DISSOLVE

Washington, July 9T-The depart ment of justice is planning immediate prosecution of all trusts or monopolies which do not dissolve or take stops to obey the sherman law as 1t has been interpreted in the Standard Oil, tobacco and powder trust cases. Attorney Cen eral Wickersham is authority for .he statement that all such will be brouSl before the courts as soon as proceed ings can be Instituted
 To make tlse sherman law effective the departments antitrust bureau is now being worked to it's capacity. Prob ably 1000 complaints of existing mon opolies, restraints or illegal agree ments to control the price of commod- ities ranging from feather clusters ~to telephones, are now being investigated The secret agents of the bureau have been scattered all over the country and in many instances an investigation of all alleged trust is going on in dozen states at the same time.
 By this practice the government ex- poets to shorten the period of investi- gation and get prompt action.
 One of the promised results or this policy is that the government will have in the courts before the end of the calendar year probably a dozen anti trust suits in which the department feels assured of success.

GOVERNMENT OF
 PORTUGAL UNEASY
MOnarchist Invasion From the North Keeps
 Threatening

Lisbon July H.--The monsrchist in- vasion of Portugal from the north, to he followed by peasant uprising, which has been expected daily, has not yet ma terialized. The monarchist agents per init the information to fall into the hands Of the government that first one day ard tneh a.otl,eh las beef fixed fof lnz outbreak The provisional administration thus is kept in a state of uneasiness and is obliged to maintain expensive measures for defense Commercial and financial ill., the hour when the projected counter revolution will begin.
 Luz D Almeida chief of the secret pc ltica1 society known as the Caf honairos, one of the most powerful influences sul porting the government. has left Lisbon for the Galician frontier to assist in tne defensive measures and to be on the field number of Carbonarios are with him, and it has been arranged that he shall have 2000 members of the society at his call
 The government actually has on tile northern frontier 10000 men. The convlc- tion of the cabinet appears to be that something must happen in no great while. but the ministers are also ocnvinved that they are wholly competent to deal with it. The Lisbon newspapers have sent cor respondents to the frontier in anticipa- ton of fighting.
 The monarchists say they have upward of 10000 men to invade Portugal, but these figures are reduced by other and more reliable information to between 5000 and 1000 agents, who are under pay and under arms. The privates are reported to receive a small sum per day for the purpose of boarding themselves at farms throughout Galicia, with the promise of a bonus in, the event that the revolu- ton is successful
 Captain Coucieres motor car is seen frequently on the country roads, where automobiles are rather rare sight. The royalist leader is we'll known and spends money freely. His principal military lieu tenants are Martins De Lima, Remedies De Fonseca, Garcia De Morales, Saturio Pieres and Camacho Canavarro.
 The civilian organization includes AL varo Chagas, a distinguished journalist and editor of Diaro Illustro; Farria Ma chado, formerly in the diplomatic service, and Count De Penella and Count Carca- vallos, both rich refugees; Assis Teixeira end Dr. Carlos Braga. They seem to have plenty of money at their command nd 1t is said that big subscriptions have been received from Brazil, as we'll as from the nobility and landed proprietors of Portugal most of whom are now living abroad.

POLITICS CAUSE
 COTTON DECLINE
RumOrs of Serious Marco can Situation Cause
 25-POint Drop

New Orleans. July 27.-European politics cost the cotton market drop ofe25 points on the new crop deliveries today. It was not until o'clock that the full weight of rumors concerning the Moroccan situa- tion was felt and at that hour the price of the October option was 25 points under yesterdsN's close. This meant loss of i4 cent a pound, or sl25 bale Decem- Der lost 2I points and January 25 points. The old crops were neglected.
 The slump came as a big surprise to the majority of brokers and traders. as in the morning session it looked al one time as if a reaction from the decline would be forced The market opened un- changed to ? points down, which was a very bad response to 8 good Liverpool market and then fell to Il points under yesterdays close. Here profit taking by shorts was heavy and operators who were working for a reaction were good buyers. The market was gradually sent up until it was practically at yesterdays closing level, when pessimistic cable messages from England regarding the dispute be- tween France and Germany arrived and from then on the market had weak un- dertone. Buyers of the early part of the session threw overheard their cotton and shorts became aggressive. Good reports from the cotton belt and bearish expec- tatons regarding the pending government report on the condition of the crop helped along the decline.
 At the lowest of the day the new crop months were 2s to 31 points down. The close was at a net loss of 22 to 3l points on the list except July, which closed at net advance of 20 points on belated short covering.

C., July 27-Eight are fully injured as the result of a head-on collision between a colored excursion train bound from Durham to Charlotte and a freight train in the Hamlet Tards this morning. Four members of the train crew are also suffering from injuries The injured were brought to Charlotte on a special train. Many additional deaths are expected.
 Of the 60 seriously hurt score or more may die.
 Four white trainmen were badly hu't. Engineer Ben Koonce who was running the excursion engine was mangled abou, the head and shoulders and injured inter- naly; Engineer A Taylor, of the freight, injured internally and badly cut: Conduc tor w. H. Bowen of the excursion, had his side crushed and several ribs broken, and Albert Gary, fireman of the freight. was badly bruised and cut.
 The cause of the wreck is unknown. The engines teescoped and six of the II coaches of the excursion train crumpled like paste board.

BAILEY RESIGNS FROM COMMITTEE

Washington, July 27.-Because he does rot believe in the Senates methods of taking testimony in Investigations, Sem ator Bailey today resigned from the com mittee on privileges and elections. He made no explanations to the Senate and the resignation was accepted without com- ment.
 TO his friends Mir Bailey said after ward he could not consent. to enter upon the work required in the investigations of charges against Senator Stephenson. q have been appointed on the sub-com- mittee to consider the Stephenson case" nc said My conviction is that the strict rules of evidence should control in all such inuulries The Senate does not observe such rules but admits all kinds of mat ters. I cannot see my way clear to de- eide a case of such magnitude on such a basis, and therefore have rendered my resignation as a member of the commit- tee"
 Senator Bailey later said the strong probability of his being member of the conference committee on the wool tariff bill rendered it impossible for him to serve on the Stephenson committee, even if there were no other reason.
 -Four of the six democrats now on the committee on privileges and elections,' ,' he said. "are now engaged in the investi- gation of Senator Lorimer's election, thus leaving but two democrats on that com mittee not so employed. As one of those two democrats I was appointed on the committee to investigate the Stephenson case. and it was simply impossible for me to do that work and also to. perform my duty as member of the conference com mittee on the wool bill."

 imer's Election

 The son was cashier of his fathers bank when the father claims to have re- ceived the money from Senator John Frederick. and he declared today that deposit slips he put in evidence proved ab- solutely that his father received the money. The son told the story of how the Holstlaw family received the blow of the fathers confession, and of his father telling him it was true
 In cross-examination, Attorney Hanecy, representing Senator Lorimer. declared the deposit slip had been juggled at both Lorimer investigations. In explanation he absolved attorneys or others connected with the committee from his charge
 Thomas Mcclure of the Mcclure & White Detective agency in Chicago, told of working on the so-calied White con- fession. He was explaining the extent of his work when the committee adjourned for the day. For the first 10 days of his services the detective said he was em- ployed by the Chicago Tribune, but when he turned over to States Attorney Way man information obtained and entered the service of the states attorney that of- ficial not only paid him for his work dur ing the 10 days he had been employed by the Tribune. but reimbursed him s25 he had advanced to White for a board bill at the suggestion of the Tribune's coun- sel
 Former Representative James r. Taw- ney of Minnesota was today cleared from any criticism growing out of the testi- mony of James Keeley. Chairman Dill 1ingham said as the committee consid- cred there was no testimony before it in any way duplicating MT. Tawney it would not ask him, to appear.
 The task of finding out if money was raised to elect Lorimer to the Senate was supplemented by the task of ascertainng if money was 'expended' for that pur- pose. Heyschel D. Holstlaw was ex- amined because his father was too III to appear. An effort was made by the com mittee to substantiate the truth of that confession.
 Father told my mother. my sister and myself that his confession was the abso- lute truth" said the witness
 ldscrsslng his fathsI's Gemeanor before the confession, the sltness said that his father had been away a month attending a Baptist convention in Baltimore.
