able" into the Sherman antitrust law.
 May Fool The Court.
 It was reported tonight that sev- eral democrats, are ready to offer amendments to nullify the courts in terpretation of the law, but the mat ter unquestionably will be carefully considered before any action is talk en. Some insurgent republicans al so were said to have in view amend ments to the antitrust law. declar- ing all monopolies whether reason able or unreasonable to be in re straint of trade and thus take from the courts the power of interpreta- ton bestowed by yesterdays decision.
 Mann Endorses IL.
 Representative Mann. republican leader of the house, gave the decision his hearty endorsement. He defend cd the courts action in the use of the word Unreasonable" and declared that if some such distinction had not been made in the opinion, the busi- ness world would have been thrown into chaos. The Standard Oil decis- ion occupied the cabinet almost eX- clusively at today's session. and Pres ident Taft, having read it over twice, also discussed its purport with some of his callers.
 -The attitude Of the president him. self that he should defer to the su- preme court and accept their law as his law, was reflected bv the cabinet
 Whatever their opinion might be. none of them was willing to admit that the decision was displeasing.
 There was a disposition on the part of the cabinet members to await the decision of the supreme court in the Tobacco case. That decision is expected May 29. and until then no nolicy will be outlined by the admin istration to strengthen the antitrust law or to solve the problem that yes terday's decision seems to have made more vexatiols than ever.
 There is no intention on the part of the administration to check the activities cs the department of jus tice. Trusts found violating the anti. trust act will be proceeded against as in the past.

DEMOCRATS BREAK ON
 COMMITTEE SELECTIONS

WASHINGTON. D. C., Nav 16.- Charpes that democratic members Of the house committee on rules were seeking usurnations Of the functions of the caucus by nominating members or committees to investigate the so- called steel and sugar trust created the most serious break that has oc- cured in the democratic ranks Of the house since the opening of con gress.
 Chairman Fenrv was denounced bv Renreseptative Fitzgerald, chairman of the appropriations committee, as having made an ''unwaTranted as- sumption of authority" for the rules committee. Other democrats said the action of the rules committee, f ratified by the house, would be com plete abrogation of the selection Of co7nmittees bv action of the demo cratic caucuses.
 The steel trust Investigating com mittee was approved before the dem ocrats woke un to the full effect or the situation. The resultant fght fell upon the sugar trust committee and a continuation Of the struggle was finally averted by the action or Democratic Leader Underwood in adiourning the house while the reso- lution was still pending.

 All branches of the service were represented in the military process sion. Two hundred Life Guards in their magnificent uniforms and mounted upon black chargers clear ed the way for the carriages occu. piec by royalty.

Back of the troops were the spec tators, a veritable sea of faces men, women and children, while thousands of others occupied doors and windows and housetops.

J. s. AND CANADA
Ccontinued from Page 1.)

as was made by Lord Elgin during this mission to Washington"
 Lord Elgin's visit in Washington was one of the greatest personal and diplomatic successes ever known to the capital He conquered through the power of personality. through his faculty of brilliant repartee and racy anecdote, through the fact that he could drink oceans of cham Gagne" and sttll maintain his ur4 banity,
 He is the most thorough diplo- mat possible" said one of his Canad- ian aides who accompanied him to Washington. Lord Elgin pretends to drink immensely, but I watched him, and I don't believe he drank more than a glass at a dinner given by Senator Blank But he never loses sight for aN, moment of his object, and, while he is clapping Yankees on the back. he is systematically pursuing that object The conse- ouence is, he is the most popular Englishman that ever visited the United States"
 On the 7th of June. 1854. the treaty was signed. Lord Elgin had succeeded in his task. altho"gh hit terly opposed by nearly half the members of congress, and not a few members of President Pierce's cabi- net. Secretary Of State Marcy, an aged man hardly the match Of the brilliant Fnglisbman in statecraft, signed the treaty on behalf of the United States.
 Was Abrogated Soon.
 The treaty was abrogated' a few years later. before Canada had be- s1'n 10 feel it's beneficial effects. The United States was so engrossed in the problem of slavery and of states rights that it had little tirne to devote to the study ot reciprocity from the commercial point ot view. When the treaty was abrogated, all nention Of reciprocity was dropped from view. and Americans, as a rule. breathed a sign Of relief, car ing little for Canada, and scoffing at her desire for closer relations. At freduent intervals. Canada attempt ed to reaDen negotiations looking to reciprocity, but she was always re- pulsed.
 Not until 1910 was the Upited States again ready to preach Canad- jan reciurocitv. Then. indeed, our diplomat went on a mission to Otta- wa, with the situation of 1854 re- versed. The late Henry NJ. Hovt. counselor of the state department, and Charlas NJ. Pepper Of the bureau Of trades relations. impressed Pre- mier Laurier with the fact that rec irroritv was a thoroughly practica- ble arrangement, and the visit or Fi- nance Minister Fielding and his staff to Washington followed, with what result the world now knows.

AVERAGE VALUE OF ESTATES

AVERAGE VALUE OF ESTATES Mir. Charles B. Spahr, of Colum bis University, since deceased, made aI examination at one time of tbf records of the Surrogates of thirty i've counties in the state of Nep York, and published the results ir The Outlook" The examination GOV cred a three months period and in cluded the counties of New YorI and Kings. the richest in the state The results are remarkable as show ing CD How few people. comparative ly speaking, leave any estates at all and (2) the low average value estates. The following is a sur mary of the facts shown:
 CD Out of 10000 persons over twenty-five years of age dying durinF the quarter only 3,351, or just abou' one-third. left any estates whatever Of those who were heads of famiiies only one-half left any estate; the other half left nothing, not even $ savings bank account.
 (2) Of the 3,35I estates admins tered on, only SS4-about 27 per cent of all estates and 9 per cent of al those dying-were worth over s5. O06
 (3) Sixty-six per cent of all left no estates; 25 per cent of all Jeff estates valued at under S5,000, the average value of those below thit amount being S1.292. Less than s per cent of all left estates valued g. S5. .0G0 or over.
 These investigations were made without reference to life insurance but they afford a powerful argument for life insurance. They are the re suits of life-not it's rosy-hued expec tations. They warn men that if they would do better than the average man they must employ better meth ods than the average man.

THE NEW DiSPENSATION.

No less impressive than democrat ic singleness of purpose at Washing ton is the fact that every important act of the house of representatives has had the vigorous support of re- publicans. la the temper Of the people, in the character of congress and in the occasion, everything has been favorable to non-partisan pub lie service
 The president himself has felt the impulse and he is mora courageous because of IL Many years have elapsed since a delegation Of tax deyourers has been talked to at the White House in the tone held by Mr. Taft toward the handful of po- litical farmers who menaced him for his support of reciprocity. Independ- ence begets independence in the ex- ecutive as well as in the legislative and nothing but good can come to the country as result of it.
 The new house of representatives contains 22e democrats. 1855 republi- cans and one socialist On the 18th of April the resolution for the cleo tiOn of senators by direct vote pass ed 29s to 16, the opposition being made up of fifteen republicans and one democrat. On the 14th of April the bill providing for publicity of campaign receipts and expenditures passed 303 to c. On the 21st of April the Canadian reciprocity agree ment was adopted 266 to S9 In the affirmative were sixty-four republi- cans and in the negative eleven democrats. Now the first of the free-Ist bills has passed 2S6 to 1O9, with twenty-three republicans bold ly cooperating with the majority. We shall see the same thing soon in the senate.
 Every one of these measures has had popular approval, some of them for years. Directly or indirectly they have been promised in platforms and by the solemn avowals of candidates. But savagely partisan congresses controlled by a system of obstruc- ton devised by plutocracy and privi- Iege have prevented final action. What was impossible last winter IS this spring almost matter of course, largely because of the faith fitness of democrats but in part be- cause they have freed the republi- cans from a tyranny that had be- come intolerable even to themselves.
