HEALTH IN MONTANA
The BEST OF ALL

The officials Of the federal census
bureau have discovered something
that has been known to residents of
Montana for many years. but about
which they have not been disposed to
boast. An official publication of the
bureau announces that Montana is ut
the head of the list of states in the
matter Of good health Of it's citizens,
it's annual death rate being less than
that Of any other state in the Onion,
with the exception of Washington.
This announcement comes in form
Of Il press dispatch which says:
"Accorling to a statement which
has just been issued from the census
office. the northwest IS the healthiest
part Of the country.
''The statement shows that the NOR
tality in the state of Washington is
the lowest in the United States, the
death rate being but 10 per 900 III
1910.
montana comes second with Il
death rate of 1915 per 1000.

there comes whispering from the

ONE TRUST PRoeLEM.

Probably no one thing has done
more to facilitate restraint Of
trade and the growth Of mOnop-
oily than the departure from the
early rule Of law that one cor
poratiun cannot own stock In
another. That departure was
the most banefui result of the
''let us alone policy in dealing
with corporations to which the
country abandoned itself during
the last thirty years Of the nine
teenth century. The conditions
which have resulted from the
exercise of the expressly con-
ferred power in one corporation
to take and hold stock in another
present the most serious obSta-
cles to the effective dealing With
the trust problem. Whenever
competitors have been excluded
by unfair means and q very
large part Of the commerce alb
sorbed by 4 particular interest
the machinery by which such
result has been accomplished
will be found on examination tu
be the control Of various cor.
porations by means Of INTERIOR,
porate stock holdings. = Attor-
ney General Wickersham.

ONE FEATURE IN
 COTTON MARKET Much Evening Up Will Be Done Before Publica-
 ton of Report

New Orleans. August 27.-This week there will probably be only one big feat ure of interest in the cotton market, and that will be the report on the condition of the crop on August 9.
 This report will be issued Friday and will be followed by the triple Labor Day holidays. It stands to reason, therefore, that such evening up will be done before the report is published.
 As the market will open Monday morn ing, sentiment regarding the report will be very bullish. A month ago the con- dition Of the crop was returned at S9 l per cent of the normal. The expectation now is that the coming report will be anywhere from r to 79 per cent. Even conservative traders expect that the de- tsrioration for the month will be meas ured by drop of full 10 points in the condition figures.
 The rise of last week partially dis counted bullish anticipations. but it is not at all unlikely that the market the week through will have an advancing tendency as the result of what is looked for in the matter of the condition fig ures
 As the market stood at the end of last week. there was only one thing that could rob the condition figures of their influence. and that was prospects of trouble between Germany and France In some of the week end market letters the Moroccan situation was once more played up a strong bearish influence. but 1t will take decided developments in this direction to really make the matter so important as to be a bearish factor of the first importance
 The movement of new cotton will be watched by both sides and may have some influence on prices, especially if 1t promises to affect bearishly the week end statistics. At the same time the bears cannot hope to see the movement have much of a pressure on the market until commitments out of Galveston have been filled, It Is claimed in some quar- ters that September commitments are quite as large as were those of August.

COMPETITION KEEN
 FOR STEEL ORDERS

New York. August E.-Competition for steel orders continued keen among the mills and fabrieating shops last week There is an evident intention to sell as much of the excess capacity as is possible during the next few months in anticipation of a dull period to fol- low The fabricating shops have been quite busy and even the smaller com panies have their capacity sold for three months, while some of the larger shops have their schedule full for five or six months ahead
 The principal fabricated steel con- tracts last week included 14 900 tons for the Kansas City terminal. Rail- road placed number of small bridge contracts running from 200 tons to 900 tons each. including those of the Mis- souri Pacific. Big Four and New York Central. Additional inquiries are in the market from the Lake Shore, Pennsyl- yania, Chicago, Burlington and Quincy: Boston and Maine and Boston and All bany. Contracts for buildings were light, the largest being 5000 tons for local houses Railroad orders for equip ment also were light
 The volume of business in pig iron was confined mainly to small 1rdlv1d- ual orders asgregating about 5o,ooD in all districts.
