"Trust" and confidence" are synonymous.
Generally speaking, a Trust is a confidence that
a person will carry out the wishes of another in
certain matters.
In its technical sense, it is usually expressed
as a written instrument by which a person
transfers to another person or corporation,
termed the Trustee, property which is to be held
and managed for the use and benefit Of the
Beneficiaries.
Trusts may be created by will, when they
are termed Testamentary Trusts, or they may
be created by individuals during their lifetimes,
when they are usually spoken of as Voluntary
Trusts.
The Guaranty Trust Company of New York
acts as Trustee under both Testamentary and
Voluntary Trusts.

AT POLLS THEATRE
Law of The Land is Presented This
Week.

A smashing domestic drama new
to Washington is disclosed this week
by the Poll Players in "The Law Of
the Land" and, Like the other plays
of George Broadhurst, it wins an I'M
mistakable success through the en-
plownent of broad dramatic strokes
and great technical skill.
In "The Law of the Land" there is
remarkable first act-almost pro-
logue, Introducing brutal husband
{. wife, her child and her lover, and
with these familiar figures there Is
built new situation, for the husband
by the law, can refuse the wife di-
vorcc ard yet retain the child through
which to torture her. AS he is about
TO carry his threats into execution, the
wife takes the law into her own hands
and shoots him, and then through
three admirably constructed acts there
arc shown the efforts Of the woman
and her friends to escape the consc-
qucn:es of her act.
This weeks production is marked
by unusually! ,tastcfuy, costlnlans and
at:least.t~o. stage settings that are
subdued and pleasing in tone. {

ANOTHER STRIKE IMMINENT
Crisis in Railroad Affairs in United
States and Canada Approaching

a crisis in railroad affairs through
out the entire United States IS ap-
preaching as the 1st OF March, inc
date set by the four railroad unions
of the country draws near. for count
ing the referendum vote that IS no"
being taken throughout the United
States and part of Canada, on the
question Of presenting demands on ali
the railroads of the country for az
eight-hour labor day with time anu
half pay" for overtime. The vote,
that shall have been taken in every
local order of the unions Throughout,
the country will be forwarded to CHI
cago about March /, where they will
be counted by special committe"
composed of representatives OF the
four great railroad unions of the
country; the Brotherhood Of Loca:
Engineers, the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen and Engineermen, thc
Order of Railroad Conductors, and
the Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men.
Should it happen that the referen-
dun vote is carried, demands will be
formulated and sent to every railroad
in the country. Thirty days will be. ii
lowed for an answer, and a. the enc
of that time, should the railroads de-
eide not to acceed to the demands in
dications are that the leaders Of the IL
Dor organizations will call strike
which will involve 100000 engineers,
frcmcn. brakcmcn and conductors
throughout the country.
Among the factors advanced fOr
present situation are the following:
1. The advance in freight and pas
scnger rates recently allowed by the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
?. The sudden burst Of business, a.
evidenced by the congestion the rail
roads, which the employees believe ha-
rapidly filled the alleged empty cof-
fers of the railroads
3. The prosperity now being felt in
many industrial lines resulting in in
crease of pay.
4. The fact that this is Il presidential
year.
5. The success achieved in the Della
ware and Hudson strike, when, for thc
first time, four unions acted in con-
cert and tied up the road so that ii
had to capitulate in two days.
Under the present 10-hour day, the
engineers and other employees receive
for overtime, when business is as
good as it is at present, about % per
cent extra, computed on the pro rata
rate. Should the new demands go into
effect, giving the employees time and
a half for overtime, his pay, comput-
cd on the pro rata rate, would be in
creased about 80 per cent.

BASKET FACTORY BURNS
Conhagration Illumines Northern
Heavens at Early Hour This
Morning.

The two story frame factory build
ing on Montgomery street, between
Washington and st. Asaph streets,
formerly occupied as a basket fac
tory, was totally destroyed by a fire
which commenced shortly before one
o'clock this morning. The building
burned like finder and great columns
of flames and smoke poured heaven
ward. After the fire had gotten head
way before the arrival of the appara-
tus, there was no possibility of check
ing the flames and the efforts of the
firemen were futile.
The building was two stories IN
height and 81 by 120 feet in size. 1t
was owned by w. A. Smoot and Co.,
having been built by that Co. for a
basket factory which was in opera
ton there several years ago. 1t mas
been unoccupied until about two weeks
ago when it was leased by Herfurth
Bros, cement block manufacturers.
They had completed moving in their
machinery on Saturday and had en-
pected to commence operations this
week. The machinery, moulds and
an automobile truck was completely
destroyed and the firm incurred loss
Of $4,000. There was no insurance,
as arrangements for insurance policies
were pending with Graham and Ogden
insurance agents.
The building likewise was not in
sured and the damage is estimated
at $4,000. The police believe that the
fire was Of incendiary origin.

which the amazing steadiness and en-
durance Of the Japanese champion
gained him victory.
Kumagae had the better of the
Californian in the first two sets and
although Johnston rallied and cap
tured the next two sets he showed
signs of WEAKNESS in the final and
went down to defeat before the even,
accurate play Of his steady going op-
ponent. The scores were 6-1, 81, 81,
2-6, 81.
