REMONSTRANCE AGAINST TEN RESORTS IS FILED
 BY MAYOR (. B. WILSON
Most of Faces County Commissioners Are Asked to Refuse to License Are In
 the TenderI0n Section

Driven by the recent white slave scandals to take some action against places which have been a disgrace to the city. Mayor Wilson notified the county commissioners this morning that he rem monstrated aginst ten ap- plicants for liquor licenses. This is the first time in recent years that the city's chief executive has taken such action and as result there was great excitement in the TenderIoln.
 SaIOOnkeeperS in that Sect1On raced to the commissioners office to see If their names were among those on the mayors list and those who escaped made haste to get their licenses be- fore anything happened
 The ten saloonkeepers against whom the emOnstrances were filed are: F. H. Steinert, SS State street; Thomas Rock, 92 State street; Lewis Marcantono, 35 Bank street; Michael Monterio, 76 Lexington avenue; Joseph Billings, 715 Water street; William Itaf Ha sePaefian hioh eaaf seafe s4 T fexington avenue; Pasquale Richards, 2S9 Wa ter street; Joseph Divio, Al Water street; John Lynch, 425 Water street.
 The remonstrance filed by the may or read as follows: '1 hereby remon- strate both as an individual and as a taxpayer against renewal of the the sale of Spirituous and intoxicating liquors, as I believe he is not a suit able person and the place is not such as is contemplated by the statutes for the sale of liquor. I further re- nnonstrate upon the ground that wo- men are permitted to Ioiter Tn and about the premises and it is a rem dezvous for men of questionable character of idle habits and with no visible means of support
 The mayor said the grounds of remonstrance were the same in all cases except that of Richards. The latter is accused of having q restaur- ant in the rear of his saloon and wo- men of bad character are said to be employed waitresSes.
 The commissioners have not yet ap- pointed dates for hearings. Under the statutes the applicants are permitted to do business pending the result of

Washington, Dec. 2-Declaring H. legal the Hartman railroad and ship ping monopoly, the supreme court, to- day, sustained the governments trust busting suit by ordering dissolved 1he merger of the Southern Pacific, Union Pacific and "SaIt Lake, Rail- roads.
 Wizard Harriman's monument of railroad and Pacific coast shipping combines was held to be a gross vio- Iation of the Sherman antitrust law.
 The highest court emphaticaIIy re- fused to invoke it's rule of reason laid down in the Standard Oil and tobacco trust eases, to approve the railroad combine. The merger was de- cfared "unreasonable'' in restraint of trade
 Ownership by the Hartman rail trust,' of 45 percent of all Southern Pacific stock Is declared illegal and roundIy disapproved by the court.
 The interest of the Hartman com pany in the Atchison. Topeka & San- fa Fe and Salt Lake, Railroads was held not illegal.
 The decision was unanimous, Justice yandiyanter taking taa n,.,I4 no part I'll The to take charge of the dissolution of interests of the Southern Pacific stock held by the Union Pacific.
 Presentation of the plans to the su- preme court of the United States with in three months is ordered.
 The defendants in the suit were the Union Pacific, Oregon, Shore Line. Oregon Railroad & Navigation Co.,; San Pedro. Los Angeles & Salt Lake; Atchison' Topeka and Santa Fe: and Great Northern railroads; the Farmers Loan and Trust Co., Of New York. and the following individuals: F. H. Hartman Jacob H. Schiff. Otto H. Kuhn of Kuhn. Loeb and Co.,, James 5tilIman, H. H. Rogers, Henry c. Prick former Senator William A. T of the Union Pacific Hartman and Rogers died while the litigation was pending.
 In February 1908 the government filed it's dissolution suit, in the federal circuit court. which, at Salt Lake City, about two years ago. dismissed -he entire prosecution. The vote of the lower court was 3 to 1, Judge Hook of Kansas, dissenting. Every con- tention of the government was denied The principal finding of the lower court was that the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific were not competing g lines before the merger. and that: therefore their combina tion was not i,,- violation of the antitrust law.
 The Northern Pacific and Great Northern Railroads were merely nomi- nal defendants. the government alleg- ing Hartman and his conspirat tors tried 10 "gobbIe up'' these roads in 1901 by buying a majority of North the Burlington feeder Of the North ssrn Pacific.

There was an unConSciOuSncSS of outward things. of the furniture of life, which left him freer than most men to face the individual soul that approached him. There was also a fine consistency in his personality no tampering with the world; no trying to serve two masters The greatness of his presence was felt, we believe. by all who approached him: he seemed to be invested by a strange remoteness from the affairs of the world Yet it was easy for the spirits to draw near to him who really wanted what he could give.

TIE MALES OF SOME SPECIES.

1t behOoves us to speak circumspectly,
for these be strenuous days. Therefore
will we not lay stress upon the unpleas-
ant ways Of the females Of some species
those Of the gardening beetle and the
scorpion. for instance, who eat their
husbands, or Of the bees, who kill theirs
and. no doubt, would eat them, too, If
they did not happen to prefer vegeta-
bic diet. The ants bride simply neglects
him. leaving him 10 die OF broken
heart-but enough. Let us rather look
upon the devotion. the chivalry, the un-
selfshness Of the males Of these species.
Neither the male beetle nor the male
scorpion defends himself against the
virago who attacks him. He might turn
upon her, and devour instead; he does
not even make a serious attempt TO es-
cape With knightly spirit unconceived
even by the trOubadours Of Provence, he
submits TO the eternal feminine even In
its least attractive mood.
1t is part of the economy of Nature,
inevitable as fate, and the male Of the
species knows it. It Is all for the sake
of the dear children, naturalists inform
us-the cost Of the perpetuation Of the
race Indeed, the treatment meted out
TO the male by the female Of his species
his very span Of life-appears TO de-
pend chiefly upon the nature and the
length OF the service which he can rem
der to her and TO her offspring. It may
be that a consciousness Of this has
taught the males of so many carnivOrOus
species to attempt to eat their children
The moment they are born. Somebody,
not the female, is apparently in danger
Of being converted into a meal by the
economy Of Nature. 1t does not look
like scientific management, but that is
short-sighted view to take.
We return TO the chivalrous male
Among the migratory birds it Is the
male who usually ventures north first,
Drawing the dangers Of winter lingering
in the lap of spring. Perhaps it is the
instinct Of Self-preservation that has
taught him to make himself indispensa
BILE for so long a time to wife and prog
eny. But for that he, too might have
fallen into the habit of being killed by
his mate. AS for the male Of our own
species, his female has learned that 1t
is to her own advantage, and still more
to that of her offspring, not to kill him.
Wherefore she tells him to put on his
rubbers on stormy days and not 10
change his fannels on the first warm
day Of spring.

MONEY AND BUSINESS.

Improvement is reported In most lines
OF trade. A reflection of an increased
demand from consumers is found in
bank clearings and railroad earnings;
also in current stock market operations,
which are being conducted on n well de-
fined theory that business activity is
widening. In the last week returns OF
all clearing houses in the country show
gain Of more than per cent, as COM
pared with the same time in 1911, while
the railroads report for the first two
weeks in March a substantial increase
In gross income, notwithstanding ad-
verse weather conditions. Reports from
leading cities indicate that sentiment in
Industrial, financial and general mer-
camille circles is becoming more opti-
mistic, and that orders for goods for inn
mediate and future delivery are increas-
Ing. AS the iron and steel market is
considered the barometer of trade, 1t IL

marked expansion in the volume of busi-
ness in pig iron and finished steel prod

MORTH TRYING.

When the scandals over the alleged
lease Of Madison Square Garden for
prizefights had led last summer 10 a
widespread demand for the repeal Of the
Frawley prizefight law, Governor Dix
in an interview declared that the people
wanted boxing" Somewhat later a
brutal, bloody slugging match in that
arena caused him to change his mind
and recommend officially that the Legis-
lature wipe out the Frawley law, which
his own act had placed on the statute
books of the state. His recommends ton
having been disregarded, the Governor
renewed it this year. This law had been
enacted, he said TO prevent the disor-
"derly and unregulated exhibitions Of
boxing which have been given in this
state for the last few years Expe"i-
"ence with the new law has satisfied
"me that it is not adapted 10 produce
"such a result The conditions which
have arisen under it are hostile TO the
feelings and the interests Of the law
abiding citizens Of the state and should
"be ended at once"
Those words were written at the be-
ginning of the year. The bill to repeal
the Frawley law has been advanced in
the Republican Assembly TO the order Of
final passage, and doubtless will be
passed by that house this week. There
has been no action taken on 1t by the
Democratic Senate, save formal hear
ing and it is scheduled to die in COM
mittee If the Governor really believes
that existing conditions under that law
"are hostile TO the feelings and interests
"Of the 'law-abiding citizens of the state
'and should be ended at once" should he
rest content TO have his party stamped
with the stigma of refusing to repeal the
bad law it created? The Governors
friends say he is now at war with Tam
many Hall. No delicate party relations,
therefore, could be ruptured if he made
determined fight to wipe out this pet
measure Of Senator Frawley and other
Tammanyites, and he might even ac-
quire few new friends among the claw
abiding citizens Of the state" 1t should
be worth trying on that basis alone.
