Security Companies Involved.
The formation Of security COM
ranies and like devices by natioral
banks for the purpose Of doing things
the banks cannot do Is one OF the
practices which Congress Is not UNI
likely to strike at.
The fact that some of the big ma
ticnal banks are participants in
financial transactions in stocks and
bonds in promotions and syndicate
operations, just about os II they were
private banks, has been brought out.
The Testimony of Mr.. Baker. who Is
now recognized as the financial peer Of
Morgan, made this clear. Men like Mr..
Morgan and Mr.. Baker demonstrated to
the committee that they view the finan-
cial affairs OF their houses as private
affairs. They resent the intrusion Of
the public. They do not take the view.

the public has such an interest In trans

How far the general Government can
reach TO the affairs of the New York
Stock Exchange and like exchanges IS
a disputed question. But there Is not
much doubt It has the power to put
such exchanges out of business IL 1t
cares to exercise It. Having this power,
the exchanges will doubtless be forced
to make radical reforms In their meth

That Congress is going seriously about
the task of putting an end to the sys-
TEN of interlocking directorates and in
relationships as they now
exist can scarcely be doubted.
Numerous evils In the national bank

committee by Comptroller Murray. He
wants more efficient inspection, wants
banks to publish the list Of securities

That the Money trust Investigation,
scored at when 1t began, Is going to
result in some of the most important
legislation Congress has enacted in
years, is now the conviction of most
of those who have been following the
hearings.
Testimony such as that offered by
George F. Baker, by ]. Pierpont Nor
gan. by various brokers who told of the
operations of the New York stock Ex-
change, by Comptroller of the Currency
Murray, and the mass Of facts and fig
ures gathered by experts concerning in
terlocking directorates and intercorpo-
rate relationships has been piled up by
the committe In such fashion that 1t
is every day becoming subject Of more
comment about the Capitol.
1t is widely felt that the inquiry has
put some big problems up to the new
Congress to solve. likewise to the new
Administrator. 1t In practical GER
tainty that most of the subcommittee
which Is conducting the investigator
did not know what a Wonderful field
they were getting into when they en-
tered on the investigation.
Hearings Maj Continue.
1t is expected the hearings which are
now on will end in a short time. But
there Is not much doubt that they will
be continued in the next Congress.
Whether they are or not. the result is
going to be powerful agitation for leg
islation.
In the sense that the Money trust

try In the hands of a small body of
men who, through their positions on
the directorates OF railroads. banks and
tndustrials WELD extraordinary finan-
cial power. 1t cannot well be disputed
proven. The vast power of men like
Morgan and Baker and Stillman has
been illuminated. 1t was pretty thor
oughly understood by those who had
studied II, but II Is certain Congress
never realized what 1t mean as clear
ly as II does now, in the light of the
facts revealed by the Pujo committee

Wall Street Gambling.
It has been brought out clearly that
much of the operations of the New
York stock exchange are gambling pure
and simple on a great scale. Even men
high up in the exchange admit this
1t has been more fully shown that be-
fore, though by no means a new dis
covery, that much of the money which
goes to feed speculation is money fur
nished by the big New York banks, and
that this in turn is money drawn from
the small banks of the interior
The tendency, Of course, is to criticise
the New York banks. but In principle
they are acting no differently from the
small banks in the interior who are
glad enough to have their funds loaned

The Next Splash

The Aberdeen World is eminently
correct in saying that the time to COM
mence preparations for the Second
Annual Grays Harbor Splash is now.
1t is a matter that cannot be COM
menced too soon. The success of the
first Splash at Hoquiam is convincing
that with proper entertainment Grays
Harbor cannot only hold its own peo-
pie here in the Fourth of July fes-
tivities, but can attract from wide
scope of surrounding territory.
The Chamber of Commerce might
do we'll to bring the matter up short
ly, and place the affair in the hands
of a committee that would be quietly
and observingly at work from now on.
OF course the Herald seconds the mo.
ton of the World, to make an effort
to secure Secretary of State Bryan as
the orator of the occasion.

Waste Heat

There is fortune awaiting the
chap who will harness up the heat
that is being wasted at the refuse
burners of the saw mills on Grays
Harbor and elsewhere. An immense
amount of power is being thus wasted
every day, and it is pretty certain
there is way to utilize it.
In the Daily Consular Reports is
found the following, showing how a
town in England successfully hitched
up lot of waste heat:
West Hartlepool, which can claim
to be the first municipal authority to
produce electricity by means of waste
heat, will open its new generating
station in the course of two or three
weeks. The two turbo-generators,
each Of 1900 kilowats, will be driven
by exhaust steam from the furnace
blowing engines of the Seaton Carew

Iron company, adjacent to whose
works the station is built. In return
for their exhaust steam, which has
hitherto been blowing to waste. the
Seaton Carew Iron company will re.
ceive free from the corporation the
supply of electric current they need
at their works.

the present electricity station is about

ing by the use of waste heat will be
very considerable. Should the sup.
ply of exhaust steam not be available,
either through a breakage of the blow
ing engines or through the iron works
being idle, supply of high-pressure
steam will be obtainable from the
Seaton Carew Iron company.
The total expenditure involved in
connection with the new scheme is
s1SS.500, the plant alone having cost
$4,000. The old generating station
will be maintained as a standby, and
also as town substation. There the
current from the new station will be
transformed to the voltage required
for distribution to the town.
