DISSOLUTION OF STEEL CORPORATION WOULD BE BIG BLOW TO THE SOUTH
 GEORGE W. CONNORS

Considerable comment was caused yesterday afternoon over part of the paper read at the morning session of the iron and steel institute by George W. Connors, in which he paid his respects in no uncertain terms to the United States government in the suit 1t is now prosecuting against the Steel corporation.
 Being a competitor of the Steel cor poration, the high compliments paid to the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company and his reference to the suit against the Steel corporation were looked upon with that much more sig nificance, MT. connors being one of the partners of the firm. of Connors-W Wey- man Steel company. with plants in Bir- mingham and Atlanta
 That part of his paper is reproduced as follows:

GEORGE W. CONNORS

Nineteen hundred and seven marks the most important epoch in the development Of the iron and steel industry of this section, when the United States Steel corporation acquired the Tennessee com pany. Previous to this time, that com pany had never been able to secure the necessary funds for It's proper develop ment Since then large Improvements have been made costing many millions. The expenditure of this vast sum was wisely directed by the able hand of its president, who brought back to his native country that knowledge. based upon wide experience, sufficient to cure past defects ir. plant and operation by applying more modern methods of progress and con- servation.
 Much credit is also due to the person. mel of his able corps of picked men for what has been accomplished since by the Tennessee company. This has brought much prosperity to the south. and to this district. which Is not in sympathy with the government suit to separate it from the Tennessee company. If such an un- wise decision should be made by the party in power. it would be colossal tlow to this section of the south, and will be done over It's protest

 We do hope that you will not con fine the trip alone to the industrial sections. but will also see the resi- dence districts. There are lot of human, likeable people in Birmingham who will see that the hours you spend here are as pleasant as possible if you will just get acquainted with each other.'

Of Battenberg and Winston Spencer Churchill, first lord of the admiralty Prince Louis in a letter to MT. Churchill dated October 2s. said:
 Dear MT Churchill: have lately been driven to the painful conclusion that at this juncture my birth and parentage have the effect of impairing in some re- spects my usefulness on the board of the admiralty. In the circumstances feel 1t my duty as a loyal subject of his majesty to resign my office of first sea lord hoping thereby to facilitate the task of administration of the great serv- ice to which I have devoted my life and to ease the burden laid on his majesty's Ioinisters.
 T am yours very truly,
 LOUIS OF BATTENBERG, Admiral"
 MT. Churchill, under the date of Octo- Der @. replied:
 My Dear Prince Louis. This Is no or dinary war but a struggle between na- tions for life or death It raises pas- sions between the races of most ter rible kind. It effaces the old landmarks of the frontiers of our civilization.
 T cannot further oppose the wish you have during the last few weeks ex- pressed to me to be released from the burden of responsibility which you have borne thus far with so much honor and success
 "The anxleties and tolls which rest upon the naval administration of our country are in themselves enough to try 8 mans spirit: and when to them are added the ineradicable difficulties of which you speak I could not at this juncture. in fairness. ask you to support them.
 fThe navy of today, and still more the navy of tomorrow, bears the imprint Of your work. The enormous impending influx of ships are the results of labors which We have had in common and in which the board of admiralty owes so much to your aid l must express pub hcly my deep indebtedness to you and the pain I feel at the severance of our official association.
 Tn all circumstances you are right in yeur decision. The spirit in which you have acted Is the same in which Prince Maurice of Battenberg has given his life ,tc our cause and in which your gallant son is now serving in the fleet.
 T beg you to accept my profound re- speet and that of our colleagues on the board. Very sincerely,
 '.WINST0N S CHURCHILL"

the supremacy over the Union OF South
Africa, where The Government does not Dare
to intervene. He urged that before taking
n step fYaught with such grave possibilities
the Government should consult the country.
and he, therefore, moved not to- proceed
otherwise.
Mr.. Asquith answering, said The eontr0~
versy would be better settled by agreement
than by a general election and the Govern
ment without delay will put forward Sugges-
tions in the honest hope of q settlement. He
regretted the failure Of the conferences with
MI. Bonar Law, but lie did not despair, and
he thought the Kings sentiments III the
Speech from the Throne should be echoed
in the House which had twice passed tlle
Home Rule Bill, whose passage had been
confirmed by the results of by-electiohs.
A dissolution, he declared, would be futile
and merely productive Of o deadlock. Ii
the Unionists won, they would be unable
to govern Ireland, and if the Government
won, Ulster would not submit. FlualIy he
said he would accept the proposals made by
Sir Horace Plunkett, as telegrnphed yesfer-
day. MI. Asquith was moderate and firm,
but the Opposition were violent and uncon~
ciIiatory.

HIS EXCELLENCY OBTAINS ENCOUR-
AGING NEWS FROM PORTO RICO.

We are informed that His Excellency the
Governor has recently added another proof
to the many, which we have, of his deep
interest in the welfare of the island. His IN
terest is not only deep, but it manifesls 1T
self in so practical a manner, that we feel
with his help we viii find u way out of
our difficulties if n way can be found.
We allude to the information which he
has obtnined FROM the Danish Consul III
Porto Rico. The information is TO the
effect that there is a good market for
cattle in Porto Rico, the prices being
8 cts. and upwards q pound live weight.
Cattle may be shipped from any island
free from contagious cattle disease.
There are agents in San juan with whom
arrangements for sending cattle TO Porto
Rico can be made. We regret that we have
not been able to secure their names. There IS
no duty for stock, and no port charges for
vessels carrying them. This news is extreme
ly encouraging to owners of estates who
have cattle to sell. The local prices are so
low at present that a transaction which re-
suits in transferring the ownership Of cattle
to q butcher, is more q gift than o sale.
Cattle for export can easily be reared IN
the island. The only stimulus the industry
needs is n desirable market.-I5id.

Swarming of Bees.
BY j. r. Shinn, Spokane

County Farm Adviser.
Swarming is the natural outgrowth
of an oversupply OF bees in hive
and consists of the old queen depart
ing from the colony with part of the
workers. With the exception of what
these bees carry with them the honey
is left, together with the brood, some
workers, drones and several queen
cells.
When the swarm has found an
other location the workers build new
combs, the queen lays more eggs and
soon the swarm becomes a normal
colony. The workers left in the old
stand are increased by bees emerging
from the brood. In seven or eight
days after the swarm has left the
parent colony young queens begin to
emerge.
Usually the first queen to emerge
destroys the other queen cells and
thus reigns supreme over the hive.
In about a week this new queen flies
from the hive for mating, after
which she returns and begins laying
eggs. Her sole purpose from this
time on is to keep up the population
Of the hive or to remove part of the
inhabitants when the numbers be-
come too great
The drones are of no further use to
the hive after the queen has been
mated. They are expelled from the
hive and starve to death.
There is little lost effort in the
work of the hive, since each bee ap-
parently has a set task. The queen
lays the eggs and the workers care
for the larvae. Workers up to II
days old build the wax, care for the
brood and clean the hive.
The older workers collect the nee
tar and pollen to be made into honey
This is the normal and usual be-
havior of bees. Many abnormal con-
ditions may arise in a colony and
cause marked departure from the
natural course. A virgin queen is
prevented from mating; she usually |
dies. Sometimes she lays eggs which
develop into drones only. If a virgin |
queen is lost, some of the workers |
may begin to lay eggs, from which |
drones alone develop. The vitality
of an old queen may be so exhausted
that drones develop from the eggs
she lays.
