Steel Trust Is Stubborn.

The steel trust has no notion OF
surrendering. 1t will not dissolve vol,
UNFAIRLY, and there will be no decree
of dissolution in case its able lawyers
can prevent it. And unless the com.
bination can be resolved into its con.
stituent companies 1t is not certain
that any useful purpose would be
served by a dissolution. The dissolu.
ton of the oil trust effected nothing
because 1t left the ownership of all
the properties Just where 1t was be
fore. The dissolution of the tobacco
trust may have been somewhat more
real, but there is dispute about that

ing questions hot-shot at them. sug.

things that would have been the first

phoned a description Of the woman to

city? Had they examined her clothing
to see II there was any mark on II that
might Identify her? Had they studied
her writing on the register to see II It
gave any indication of being assumed
or disguised? Had they examined her
pocketbook to see II 1t contained any
clue TO a motive? Had they consid-
cred whom she might have come to
this town to see?
THAT idea OF calling up the Bridge
port police amt such bad one" said
the coroner. Suppose you do It

stable.

Their petty wrangling over such 8
trifling amount exasperated me not q

TRYING A TARIFF Law
TIME FOR TESTING IT rs NOT
MAIN REQUISITE.
Measure to BE Constructed by Demo.
Gratis Must Have General Party
Approval Before II ls
Given 20 Country.

A prominent Democrat expresses
the hope that Mr. Wilson will call
congress together as early as March
10. Let u.s." says he, get the new
tariff law on the books and In opera
ton by August /. and that will give
the country fifteen months In which
to appraise II before passing on II at
the polls" A very good point. but
not all OF the case
The country voted on the Mckinley
law when II was only about a month
old, and condemned II. Mr.. Mckinley
always insisted that a trial OF twelve
months would have saved the meas
ure, insured the election OF a Repub-
lican house In 1890, and the re-elec-
ton OF General Harrison in 1892 AZ
he believed, the verdict was formed
more under the influence OF the bitter
debate which had marked the meas
ure's passage through the house than
from a knowledge OF what the law
actually contained.
The Gorman-Wllson law came up
for judgment at the polls within less
than ninety days after it's passage
But II would have been condemned
had the time been a year. Time
would have been no help in such a
case. The measure carried from the
day Of its birth the displeasure Of the
party responsible for It.
The Dingley law had a trial OF more
than a year, and was approved. But
approval would have come at the end
Of a month. Business, indeed, began
to pick up while the measure was TAX
ing shape. The bare promise Of q
revision Of the tariff on lines frankly
protective after a period Of deep de-
preston had set the wheels of in
dustry to turning again; and the army
Of the unemployed trooped back to
work. The White House and con-
gress were in full agreement
The Payne law had a trial Of more
than year, but, as the Gorman-Wil-
( son law before II had been, was hob
bled from the outset It had divided
the responsible party In congress TO
the extent that the best campaign
material In use by the Democrats
wher the law came up before the PEG,
pie was Of Republican preparation
They could, and did support their de,
nunciation of the law by quoting from
the deliverances OF many Republican
orators and newspapers. At the polls
the law was bound to lose.
Time is an element, but a greater
element is party agreement II it can
be reached while the measure is or
the stocks If it slides into the water
with great acclaim and with reason
able smoothness, everything subse
quently should go we'll But If the
launching is bungled, and some of the
workmen express doubt about the sea
worthiness of the craft, everything
may go wrong. Boss Underwood
should have an eye to the framework
and impress upon his men that the
country expects every builder to dc
his duty.

listened closely to the testimony and
the minute we began looking for the

He came just the night before you

Fills answer settled everything In my
mind. Cook was Crandall The ar
rival OF Cook In the village coinclded
with the departure Of Crandall from
New York. The haste In which he
had departed was explicable by the ar
rival OF the old woman on that train.
Evidently he wanted for some reason

time that she did. What had been

Marine Monster, Weighing Approx

of Vancouver Coast

While securing the ocean for whales
one of the little steamers working
from the Kyuquot station landed a
thirty foot shark.
The wolf of the sea" is claimed to
be one of the largest ever seen in
northern waters and weighed approx
mately eight tons.
The whaling steamer had been
searching vainly for whales for sew
eral days and the lookout had grown
tired of scanning the surface Of the
ocean. He was suddenly aroused to
action by observing the dorsal fin Of
a monster shark cutting the water
about 200 yards on the port bow. As
the big sharks yield considerable oil.
the ships officers decided to try for
this one in view of'the lack Of whales.
