Federalized Militia of 424,O 900 Pro-
vided and Reserve System. Made
Up of Retired Men.

BY the votes which were cast in the
House military affairs committee yes
terday, it is easily seen that Chairman
Hay has control. and that neither the
extremely large army men nor the ex-
tremely small army men will see their
views Incorporated in the Forthcoming
army appropriation bill, which is ex-
pected to be reported to the House one
week from tomorrow.
The committee yesterday practically
finished the main features of the bill.
including provisions for regular army
of $4,000 men and six new regiments
of artillery. which is an increase of two
regiments over the program offered by
the President in his message to Con-
gress on the subject. Votes were taken
on other figures, ranging from 100000
down to $4,000, the latter being the
only one on which the majority could
agree.
At the same time the progress of the
Senate committee on military affairs
showed that there is a growing ten
dency in that body, as well as in the
House committee. to provide for a fed
eral army reserve. in addition to the
regular army. and federalized Ma
tional Guard.

FEATHER
 ; OF TRUSTS

The great industrial combinations which in America have come to be known as "trusts'' are the legitimate descendants of the monopolies of Elizabethan and Stuart days in Eng land. The principle of trust" or- ganization-the bringing together of two or more concerns engaged in the same business, for the purpose of re- ducing expenses, regulating production and restricting competition-is as old as business. When John D. Rocke- feller consolidated interests in the Standard Oil Company in 1870, and launched the Standard Oil Trust in 1882, the trust" assumed scope and power previously unknown. It was a lawyer, however, who really invent ed the modern industrial trust as it exists to-day-Judge William Henry Moore. In developing this new phase of industrialism he had the able as- sistance of his brother, James Hobart Moore, also disciple of Blackstone.
 Judge William H. Moore was born sixty-eight years ago to-day in Utica. N. Y., and entered Amherst College in 1867, but. owing to ill health, did not graduate. Later he studied law and was admitted to the bar in Wis consin in 1872. Removing to Chicago he made d speciality of corporation law. He studied the subject from A to 2, and within few years he was rec ognized as an authority by American captains of industry.
 With his brother, Judge Moore pro- noted the four giant corporations known in industrial history as the Moore group.' with combined cap ital of 1S7.O0O,0O0. These as we'll as the American Tin Plate Company and the American Steel Hoop Com pany, were later absorbed by the giant of all industrial corporations. United States Steel.
 ' The Diamond Match Company, the so-called match trust" was launch ed by the Moore brothers in 1889. The National Biscuit Company and num- Der of other great industrial combina- tions are also. monuments to the le- gal genius of the Moore brothers.
 As "the man who invented the trust" Judge Moore's status in history is still "a matter of conjecture. Whether the "trust," by effecting great economies and reducing economic waste, is a blessing to humanity, or whether, by establishing monopolies and restrict ing competition, it is a curse, is still a matter of heated controversy.

Move Congress To Adopt Plan of
 Daylight Saving

Washington, Oct. 25.-With the an- nouncement of the beginning of a movement to urge Congress at its com ing session to adopt a daylight saw ing'' plan. comes news from Austria that the plan has proved successful to the highest degree during the last summer.
 For the health of the people, ac- cording to the United States Consul General, Albert Halstead at Vienna, it has been of the greatest advantage. In the saving of lighting it also has been most satisfactory. It is calcu- lated that in Vienna alone the people consumed $142,0O0 worth less of gas while the city itself saved approxi- mately $1S,00O in gas from street lighting.
