HATCHING OUT A TRUST. In this marning’s World is told a graphic and inter- esting story ol the birth and srowth of the new trust which proposeso drive wall the cigar dealers of New York out of business, The reuder of the story sees the young trust come into existence under his eyes as naturally as a _young chicken couting out*of the shell in an incubator, The trust is new, but the story is old and only too familiar. The individual cigar dealers are bought out, or ‘pullied out, or frozen out, or driven out—any way to get them out—peaceably if pousible, forcibly if necessary, until the last vestige of competition has disappeared, With it has dizappeared alike the last vestige of Individ- ual independence and of public control or even resistance, |‘ ‘The trust is supreme, and theroafter its will is law, This is the old familiar story! of the Sugar Trust, and of the Standard Ol! Trust, and -the Ice Trust, and the Smelting Trust, and the Rubber Trust, and the Leather Trust, and the Tobacco Trust, and of every one of the fifty-odd trusts which have monopolized an equal num- ber of branches of busimess and which flourish above the, ruins of individual enterprise. ‘And in admiring the perfection of this new | of business and the ability of the men who organize it} we note that it flourishes}in spite of anti-trust laws, State | and Federal, and that ut flourishes equally under a Republican or a Democratic President—under a Harri- gon, or 2 Cleveland, or a McKinley, or alRoosevelt, Ghe Detective Camera.—At Albany theACommissioner Of) T ghine Public Sufety tas Introduced the Kodak as a means Of] sHecause we have to work It on the Mdentifying delinquent policemen, and aw unhappy police: | quiet."" replied the Georgian —Ohlo Stat man assigned to epectal guard duty has (been sn 13 Journal, while asicep on his post and dismissed) from the force. | > The objection to applying this tdea tn New York ts that | ° AWHRE Heo Ake rane cl erson might snap thes camera on the | « hin 1s . attl asked = Mr. CAT Ite oe SMuntoburn, as his wife came running Police Commissioner. ae [Pe0, Reginald,” she said, “that pig “NOTHING DOING. 2 patting you ordered the other day has When the recent wholesale “shake-up” of the Police | } come, na Ie wort fe through th front “ ne men WIL have to. take Department was made the official reason given for Its and) then the not having been made earlier was that the Commis- sioner had been waiting for the civil-service lists of) officers eligible for promotion, | Now when the question of vice in the tenements Is) forced on the 'Tenement-House Department by the ac- tion of the Central Federated Union, Commissioner De Forest says that “the Tenement-House Department has been delayed in getting to work because of the delay of the Civil-Service Commission in furnishing an jc eligible list from which inspectors could be appointed, and also the delay of the Civil-Service Commission in furnishing an eligible list for clerks in this depart- ment.” And the new administration has been in office al- most six months!
