closure Of cIandestine Affair.

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j., Sept.
16.-Michael Snyder and Pearl
BANNER went mushroom hunting on
Phillips farm today and uncovered
a tragedy that has set New Bruins
wick and its environs to quivering
with astonishment and horror to-
night.
Beneath an apple tree the boy
and girl, neither as yet in their
teens, found the body of the Rev.
Edward W. Hall, for ten years the
honored and respected rector Of the
Protestant Episcopal Church Of st.
John the Divine. Beside it lay the
body of Mrs. James Mills, pretty
choir singer in the church.
Both Shot to Death.
A single bullet wound on the right
side Of the forehead had brought
death to the minister. Three bullets
had entered the head of Mrs. Mills.
one under the right eye, another in
the right temple and a third over
the right ear. A knife wound show
ed its ugly scar along the throat of
Mrs. Mills. The fingers of Hall were
cut, presumably with the same
weapon.
The children fled in terror from
their discovery and carried with
them to the New Brunswick police
a story that shook New Brunswick
out of it's wonted complacency. New
Brunswick is ir, Middlesex county,
and the bodies were found in Somer-
set county, just over the Middlesex
line.
Authorities Of Somerset county to.
night were notified by New Bruins
wick police and are endeavoring to
unravel the mystery Of how the
clergyman and the woman met their
deaths. AS they worked to this
end, the story of the tragedy was
being told in hushed and Mortified
accents beside countless firesides in
Middlesex and Somerset counties.
Members of the congregation of
st. Johns Church were dumbfound-
ed. Few could be found who were
willing to discuss It. From the New
Brunswick police. however. II was
learned that rumors of attentions
said TO have been paid to Mrs. Mills
by the pastor had been current for
several months in circles where they
were. known.
Suicide Theory Discarded.
Few clues were found TO aid the
authorities in their search for a solu-
ton of the mystery. No weapon was
found. A single discharged, pistol
cartridge was discovered between the
bodies.
The authorities are convinced that
both were murdered. No evidence

All that refers to the rumors
that some of the big meat pro-
ducers, Armour, Wilson, and per-
haps others, plan a combination.
From those that exclaim better
than they can think, a loud cry
will 60 up, Monopoly"
That silly cry is a confession
of helplessness.
The motto Of this country
should be:
'"The bigger the better; moth
ing too big for the biggest coun-
try In the world"
If the people haven't intelli-
esnce enough to supervise and
control one or two great food
producing agencies, they will not
have intelligence to control five
or ten.
Nothing prevents the five
getting together and making
their agreements. History
shows that.
To insist on outward compe-
tition, PAYING THE EX-
TRAvAGANT COST OF SUCH
COMPETITION, while the COM
petitors talk things over in
private, as though they were
all one concern, is pitiful folly.
Go back to the five buildings
by the Joliet railroad station.
They represent the five great
est packers in the land. In
each of those five buildings
there is a refrigerating plant,
with a separate set of engineers
and other experts.
There are five managers, five
sets of clerks. There are five
sets Of big motor trucks-all
idle more than half the time.
There are in Chicago five
complete sets Of overhead ex-
pense running always.
AND THE PEOPLE THAT
EAT THE MEAT PAY FOR
ALL THAT.
One refrigerating plant, with
one first-class engineer in
charge, would do. And SO on
all down the line.
Citizens Of the country should
realize that the world has passed
beyond the stage Of competition
on a small scale. It has. in
fact, passed beyond the stage Of
Individual business management.
NATIONS are going into bust
ness as nations.
The British government is a
great organization to push Brit
fish trade. The United States
cannot do business successfully
against Europe if it tries to
compete on a chopped up COM
petitive small scale.
When we plan to beat a ma
tion in war we put the coun-
try's whole power back Of the
effort. If we want to beat Eu-
rope and Asia in commerce, we
must put the nations power
back Of It.

A visitor from Mars, landing
at the railroad station at Joliet,
Ill., would notice, in a row, five
well-kept buildings with these
five magic names:
Armour, Swift, Morris, Wilson,
Cudahy.
The Martian would ask: "What
are those buildings, with five
mystic names? Why do they
thus crowd here where trains
come in? What is their mean
mgr"
He would be told that the five
buildings represent five concerns,
competing with each other for
the pleasure and profit Of selling
meat to Joliet, and, Of course,
multiplying by five the cost OF
that service.
The Marian would ask: "Why
do you squander money having
five concerns distributing meat,
making your people pay the over
head expenses Of five great COM
panies, when one single company
could do the thing better, more
efficiently, more cheaply?"
The earth man would hardly
know what to reply to that. Per-
haps he would say: 1--WE have
an idea that we are better off
with five different concerns sell
ing us meat and competing with
each other"
