“There is not the slightest com
petition between any of the foreign

rates fixed by agreement, but all
these rebates and other advantages
to forward shippers. :j
“Special rates are given by them
to Standard Oil, to the steel trust
and to the harvester combine to such
an extent that competitors are ab-
soi'itely excluded from competing
with them in foreign countries.
“There is not a singie method
ever used by any of the great cor

competitions, increase prices and
create monopoly, that is not today
practiced by this combination of for

them.
“This bill will give a remedy if
none now exists. I have not the
slightest doubt that the United

the foreign ships in these combines

Big Coal Contract
Bids Are All In
The bids for the big 300,000 tons of
coal contract, told of first in The
News several days ago, were placed
in tie hands of Mr. R. M. Miller, pres-
Ment of'the North Carolina Manufac
turers* Association by 6 o’clock last
evening. Sixteen representatives of
the big coal companies, most of them
from Virginia, have been here for sev
eral days, stopping at the Seiwyn, and
Mr. Miller has had company almost
every minute of those few days. The
bids will be opened this week, . The
coal is to be bought In one lot by Mr.
Miller, representing the North Caro
lina Manufacturers’ Association from
the company that will furnish the best
grade of coal at the lowest figures.
The coal will not be delivered at one
point, it will be shipped direct from
the coal fields in lot assignments, to
the point disi.gnated by Mr. Miller.
The association will call for the de
livery of the coal throughout this ter
ritory as needed.
Aw, come on, Colonel, be a sport,
Be a cheerful bruiser !

Treaty With Hon
duras is Proposed
Washington. Jan. 7.—The United
States ])ropose3 to put into the form
of a treaty with Honduras the reci
procal arrangement necessary to make
that republic “the strong Honduras” to
which the president referred in his
message to congress.
The treaty will be a binding moral
obligation on the United States to
maintain the peace in the buffer
Btate.
Mr. Juan Parades, the financial
agent of Honduras has not yet called
at the state department since his
arrival recently in Washington. His
appointment has been postponed by
reason of the occupation at the time
of Secretary Knox and the president
with the Canadian reciprocity commis
sioners. He will, however, call on
Monday when the whole subject will
be discussed with Secretary Knox.
It is impossible to obtain from offi
cial sources the exact amount of the
loan which it is proposed to make
to Honduras It is understood that
the ten million dollars which has been
spoken of in recent dispatches refers
only to the amount due to certain
American private interests. This does
not take into account the conerslon
of the debt of Honduras which
amounts to $120,000,000. It is stated
on seemingly good authority that the
total loan will amount to about $40,-
000,000 to be paid in periods of years
which are now matters of negotiation.
