the tax commissioners. and may be accepted as fair measures Of the pros perity of the states corporate indus tries
 This loss of nearly two and . half million dollars in the last twelve months means, therefore, that since the new tarin got into full operation the industries of Rhode Island have lost just that much in money making capacity-in other words, the demo cratic schedules of customs duties have in one short year taken from the state that much wealth. It is not only the owners of the industrial property who suffer: it is the state treasury also. and hence the service which the state government can give, to the people.
 That it is a tariff hostile to domes- tic industry that has caused this loss admits no question. With imports of cotton cloths doubled under the Will on-Underwood law. as from 3721 ,902 in value in March, 1913, to s1, 4o2, 071 in March 1914, and with imports of woolen and worsted cloths increased in value at the rate, for example, of from s32s,e74 in March, .1s13, to q, ,396, ,910 in March, 1914, it was in evitable that Rhode Island mills should be less prosperous and Rhode Island mill stocks less valuable
 The new democratic tariff has al l. ready stopped the increase of wealth in Rhode Island; continued in operation indefinitely it would mean the induss trial ruin of the state.

Hull. attorney for Maunsell Van Rensselaer, and others. who were peti- tioners for the appointment of a re- ceiver for the Thames River Special ties company of Montsille, Attorney John c.

PLANS FOR s4,ooo, 900
 THERMOs COMBINE.
President Walker Ras Options on 20 Vacuum Flask Companies in Europe.

Plans for a Thermos combination Southampton in the New York Sun on Friday. It was as follows:
 William B. Walker, president of the American Thermos Bottle company, who sailed for New York today on the Hamburg American steamship Imper- ator, said that he had options on 20 companies manufacturing thermos and other vacuum fiasks and that he proposes to organize worldwide company with a capital of S4,sS$$$s to take over the various firms.
 The holding company. he said. will be financed in the United States. He will return to England in about six weeks to continue the negotiations. He has been in Europe for two months looking over the situation in Germany, England, France and Switzerland.
 Frederic w. Cary, secretary of the American Thermos Bottle company has received a letter, dated May 20, in which MT. Walker said that he be- lieved a worldwide combination of vacuum bottle manufacturers was practicable. .Mr. Walker did not go into details in his letter and Mir Cary said last night. when the Suns cable gram was read to him. that the plan
  moved rapidly after MT. Walker had written the letter.
 The idea of an international com bination in the trade has developed since Mir. Walker sailed from the country. His trip was taken not to effect a combination, but to arrange for glass for use in the manufacture of the bottle in the American factor ies and to look over trade conditions.
 There are four big companies. oper- ating in as many countries, under the original patents and using the name "Thermos. These are the Thermos Gesellschaft of Berlin. the parent com pany; Thermos. Ltd, of London, which handles the trade in Great Britain and the British colonies except Canada; the Thermos Bottle company. Ltd. of To- ronto, which handles the trade for Bottle company of New York, which covers the United States.
 The four companies are affiliated, but are separately owned, except that the American Thermos Bottle com pany owns 51 per cent. of the $100,- 600 capital stock of the Thermos Bot tie company, Ltd, of Canada The Thermos Gesselschaft retains the en- tire continental trade. The other three companies bought the rights for their respective fields from the German con- cern.
 MT. Cary said that there was no thought of taking other vacuum bot tie manufacturers in the United States into the projected combination. be- cause of the antitrust. laws. There are a number of independent makers of similar bottles in Germany, how ever, and 1t is supposed to be these who make up the large part of the options mentioned in the cable. The only so-called independent companies are those in the United States and in Germany. Thus the proposed plan which presumably includes the four great Thermos companies and the in- dependent German concerns. would leave only the independent United States concerns as competitors for the worlds business.

be the winding up of the business, as the interest due on bonds in August win be defaulted.
 Further charges made by the attor- ney were that the business was con- ducted extravagantiy and that big sal aries are paid and competent men are discharged. He charged that President Van Renssalaer is successful only as a failure and that the stock of the company is now worth about $25 per share, where 1t used to be worth $1O0.
 In combating the claims of Attor- ney Geary. Major Hull for the peti- tioners said that the Bigeiow inter- ests which he represented, have stocks and bonds to the value of s750. 900, while Mir. Geary's clients had only $S0.000.
 The major denied that the company is extravagantly managed and said a son of the president is working for 1,200 a year and is worth far more. He said four of the new stockholders had been indicted under the Sherman act but their companies took over the responsibility and some of them are again in trouble under the same act. charge and declared MT. Afford tried to get Mir. Van Renssalaer into the unlawful combine.
 Nr. Hull said the new stockholders own stock in companies that are bus mess rivals to the Thames FIver com pany. He said Mir Van Renssalaer has s50,000 in the company. which is about as much as all of MT. Seary' clients. He Iclaimed the president is needed for the Thames River com pany to keep it alive and he turns out the finest kind of box board Tn the land. He said he knows the law is against making an officer of com pany the receiver
 Judge Shumway remarked that it looked as If some people with money were needed to keep the company going, and he asked who would be suggested for permanent receiver as the law is against making the officer of a company the receiver.
 Then followed the appointment of ttorney Cronin after a discussion 'of names.

Footprints in Stone.

From time to time amateur geol- ogists, unhampefed by book learn ing" make, as they suppose. wonder They find that they hail not as foot prints on the sands of time. but foot prints of men and animals on flat rock surfaces and slabs of stone The real origin Of such hollows is now known to be the former presence of concretions which have in time been worn out. In every part of the earth such "footprints' have been found. The most remarkable of these is a print two feet long on the top of a lofty hill called Adams peak, in the Island of Ceylon, which is believed by the natives to be the stamp of the foot of Buddha as he left the earth and sprang into heaven, and it is ac- cordingly an object of worship.
