'Friday Mobning, June 30, 1899. ... THE BENEVOLENT TBUSTS. h it was considered agood joke when in)' announcing his candidacy for the! U. S. Senatorship to suc ceed Senator McMillan Secretary Alger , declared that he stood on a -trusts SUCKING THE ORANGE. With Cuba, Porto Rico, and the Philippines the partjr in! power will have a field for jsoft Bnaps for a good many of the proetges'of the ma chine managers who cannot be pro vided for at home. This is being done now in Cuba. How it is being done is told in the' following, Which platform of opposition to and in favor of the election of Sena- we clip from the Washington corre tors by the direct vote of the people, spqndence of the New York Jourryd Y FOE TWO YEABS. - .The war managers at Washington have-decided to give Gen. Otis ten thousand more men in time to begin on ' o rrrrraaa va . ftamtiaiffn . when the rainy season closes, which will be in September. As the recruits are to b$ enlisted for two years it is pre sumptive evidenoe that the war managers do not- expect to wind the war up with a dash, although Geri. Otis, in his last cabled report, as sured : them that the insurgent armies had" about frittered away, but a few thousand being .lefYand' these being held together by the leaders, who have inspired- their followers .with the belief that the anti-expansionists in this country . will rarrv the nexlf election and then their independence will be ac knowledged. j.-' . That's where the politics comes in, in this business. Gen. 0 tis may have said that, and possibly it might have been inserted in Tiis dispatch of for MfcTAAched Washineton, as k; has been charged tha the war dis patches are doctored there before they are given to the public, but it is disreputable politics alrthe same, the object being to shit the - odium of this prolonged war with its record of blunders-from the shoul ders of the administration, where it belongs, the shoulders of the oppo nents of theadministration policy-or iather lack of policy, for it does not. seem to have any policy. . It looks now very much as if it were the purpose to prolong the war into the next Presidential campaign when they can put up the plea that a change of administration would be disastrous, and that it would not do to "swap horses while crossing a stream." . ' CURRENT COMMENT. The presumption was that Alger was simply trying, to get into the current and float into the Senate over the trusts, but he showed not only his demagogism but also hi3 trickery in the declaration as ,to trusts, and took this way of knifing McMillan, who a few years ago . wrote a letter in which he sided yith the trusts. This no doubt in anirpd the . anti-trusts declaration of Alger. "- .The ioketn this declaration will he appreciated in view of the -fact that about the time candidate Mc Millan was 'defending trusts, candi date Alger was busy ' manipulating the Match Trust, so that " as far as trusts", are concerned;, honors -are easy . between them, or in other words both are tarred with the same stick. . " As "McMillan has to face that let ter the only thing for him to do is to explain it and yank the trust out - of it if he can, which he essays to do xby saying that when he wrote he ' didn't have the trust, as we now see it, in view, but simply combinations, of capital to work to better advaqt age,-whjch.he considered all right then and considers all right now. This is probably a dodge and an after tnought with McMillan, who didn't I dream when he wrote that trusts would so: soon become the looming i factor in politics that they now are, i but whether he be honest or not this is the only explanation he can make. If he were honest and that r was what he meant when he wrote it would be explanation enough for there is a very material . difference " between trusts and simple combi- nations of capital, which we always !j have had and always will have and f without which there would be very I little material progress. When two or more men enter into co-partnership I there is combination of capital. There I may be two or a dozen, the larger numbprs generally being in the form of stock companies. These combina tions are for the purpose of doing: ; business and for the purpose of rais-! f .ing the amount of capital necessary - to do the business, not for the pur- of Commerce and Commercial Bul letin, a non-partisan paper: . "The necessity lor a definite determi nation of the status .of Cuba is being brought home constantly to the Ad ministration by the friction which re sults from military rule. The Cubans are complaining that military govern ment by the United States is a little better that ssmi military government under Spanish authority and ,that it has the additional evil, that business men and investors are kept in ' igno rance of what the final status of the island is to me. Military, officers in spite of their high character and pro- lessionai training, uu uoi. ujh the capacity for technical civil affairs which would be shown by civilian experts. To make matters worse, even the blunt integrity of the military officers is not the side of American control which is attracting the most attention. The reports which reach the War -and Treasury .departments show much discontent with the pack ing of the civil offices with politicians, who draw high salaries from the Cuban revenues, but are very rarely experts in their special functions. Thus a re cent number of 'La Discusion,' a well- known Havana "journal, sums up some of the higher offices wuich have been saddled upon the Havana Custom. House at the expense of the Cuban re venues. Below the military collector, Col. Bliss1 and Mr. Walter A. Donald son, the special deputy, who draw their compensation from the United States, ' are enumeratad Capt. Ladd, cashier,- $3,000 : W. P.

To assert that the protective tariff is not responsible is "rank nonsense," for theonlytwp countries in the world Where the trusts have become general, and have taken root, so to speak, are the United States and Germany, in both of which there'ia a protective tariff. If the tariff has nothing to do with it, how can this fact be explained ? Mr. Havemeyer, President of one of the first and largest trusts in this country, said in . his heariugjjef ore the industrial commission, at Wash ington that the protective tariff is "thehmother of trusts," and scores of Republican papers, before he spoke, practically admitted this by de manding that the tariff be modified, and that if necessary those articles on which trusts have been iormed be put upon the free list. : .The bulk of the testimony is against the esteemed Inquirer. . : ' y '"' - Enough Said: Giles "How was it your vacation lasted only one day?"

"A frifnd it mine who " has been too busy with the problem of ways and 'means to pay. much attention to the adornment of his house asked me yesterday, to select for him a good piece of colonial mahog any, as he wanted to have one such piece in "his house, and iTieclined to do so until lhadexplamedtohimthexcost," said a scenio artist whose house iaone of the 6how places in a town near New York-. "I knew that his furniture was oak and upholstered stuff, and that just so sure as he placed with it aTgood example , of old mahogany his troubles would begin. The mahogany would kill his oat, and In course of time it would mean the refur nishing of his house. "His was a case of Ignorance being bliss, and I did not propose to unset hia household. I have seen the old mahogany disease work Its way into many house holds, and in many cases the results have been disastrous. Talk about having a mortgage n your house, why, that is nothing compared, to the annoyance of finding that you-have a lot of modern oak furniture on your hands too good to throw away when you have once begun to col lect old pieces. It has taken me nearly ten years to. live down a collection of oak furniture which I made in St. Louis and which has hung over me like the shadow of a great sorrow. I was boarding in bfc Louis and doing work on a big produc tion, when my wife and I decided that we didn't like boarding and that we would try housekeeping. I had no time to spend in looking for a house, so we took the first one that we could find.- "We spent Just one afternoon in furnishing it completely dishes, draperies, rugs, carpets and an outfit of very new oak furniture. , The re Bnlt was Just what might have been ex pected. ur house looked like a Grand Rapids showroom. We moved to New York, leaving behind as much ot our oak furniture as we could, but when we got settled here we found around ns a lot of it which was too good to give away and which we could not sell. . ; J ; "I had picked up by this time a few old pieces' of . mahogany, and the more I studied .them the more I despised my oak. Then 1 built my house, and I was forced to move some of those pieces into it. I have been crowding them out by degrees ever since, however, and now I haven't got one modern oak piece left, fh the mean time I have watched friends struggle with their modern furniture after they had. picked up a.n bid piece or twoj and their troubles have been like mine.' When : my friend asked me yesterday to select an old piece for him, 1 told "him what I have told you, And I said that if after thinking it over" for a week he still wanted to make the plunge I would help him. He will probably want to begin on an old chest of drawers, for that is usually the opening wedge, and then old andirons, tables with -claw feet and eorner cabinets will follow, concluding with chairs, and the latter will'keep him poor for the rest of his life. -It's like the opium habit,"' and you "can't shake it oft."

One cannot im- agine that quoits '.will ever attain such; popularity as the; bicycle, but the un prejudiced person can see no reason why it should not -become as favorite a pastime as.gotf, which a very few years ago was alinost unheard of south of the Tweed. " " '-; -J-- ' ..-r'-.i v-': . Quoits is a very fine game, especially in the'winter time. It is splendid exer riBi and trains the eve and the hand to act together in j a. way that few other sports can do, for the very essence of it is accuracy of aiin at a mark placed be low, the level of the hand. It has been objected that "throwing -quoits makes the player lopsided, but, after all, that , is easily remedied, for there is nothing to prevent the 1 player throwing the qudit with his left hand if he so pleases, and such a change would make a varia tion in the game! and also afford, an ex cellent method of handicapping the men of Unequal skill, j Quoits strengthens the -aniis and shoulders, but it is not a pas time which primarily demands strength.: A great advantage of the game is that it fcan be played in any small space and that the ground need not be particular- ly jleveL. Any rdugh field or waste bit of ground is good enough for a quoits pitch, and no rolling or cutting is re quired to" satisfy the demands of the m-t exigent For cricket you need a carefully prepared wicket, for lawn tennis and croquet a piece of . turf like ajbiljiard table j and for golf the best part of a country all to yourself, but for quoits you only need a few yards of rough ground, and yon have as good a place for throwing as any one can pos sibly require. ; 'j - I ''."':) 1 I (People; certainly might play quoits ! more than they; do,'but the taking up of a game is usually a matter 'of fancy, and perhaps two things stand in the way of quoits. First, there is an idea that it is a "rustic" sport and can only be played by the rough country lads, and, second,- there is the legend- that the came is derived from the classical discus throwing, a suspicion which it must be confessed is enough to throw a slur on any well regulated game. i No treatise on quoits can begin with out the time honored pedigree of the1 quoit from the discus. Strutt, who lived at the end of the last century, of course dealt with it, and equally of; course he dragged in the discus even if he did not invent the descent of quoits " from the sports of ancient" Greece. The thing, of course, is absurd. To make a discus, the artisan did not, in the words of the immortal Irishman; take a hole and put some iron around it. The discus was more like a flattened Dutch cheese and" was a solid missile. Moreover, it was not held in the same'manner as a quoit, but was bowled underhand, in i which indeed it alone differs from putting the weight That quoits is now played chiefly in the country is the fault of those whojlo not play it and bring it into fashion. j' " " It is no doubt a very ancient English game, and its beginnings are lost in the mist of ages. Haklnyt mentions it in his book of "Voyages," so it was well known in Queen Elizabeth's time, when it probably was one of the avqrite sports of Merrie England. In some parts of the country the rustics used to employ horseshoes for want of properly made quoits, and there are districts in which the quoit is called s shoe" even to this'day. This gives us the clew to the most' probable origin, of the sport and hints that the first game Of quoits (was started by throwing horseshoes at the hob pr mark, andfrSm this grad ually grew up the practice of having quoits specially made for throwing. So much for the discus legend.! As for the word "quoit" itself, its etymology is more than doubtful, and it gives us no clew whatever to the origin of the game. j-. 't '' .'. :i; . 'it1'-'" Shakespeare, who .mentions every thing except tobacco, of course has a reference to the sport, and as Hakluyt .was a contemporary of his it may be held to show that the spacious times of Great Elizabeth-were the palmy period of buoits. It is true that he does not speak of the sport in very reputable connection, for : the only mention of occurs in the scene in which Prince Henry, Fajstaff, Poins and the ; rest were in the Boar's Head tavern, in' Eastchepe. Falstaff, in giving a char acter sketch of the young prince, ob serves that he plays quoits welL but the context very clearly shows that in Queen Elizabeth's time at any rate quoit playing was looked down upon as the idle man's recreation, much as skit tlesJa with us. ; That fat Jack Falstaff, disreputable old - fellow as ' he was, meant to imply no good of the prince by his reference to quoits is very evi- dent I This" is the only reference - to auoits in Shakespeare, and it is a libel, though the sting is taken out of it by the fact that it is put into the montn of Falstaff. -Physical Culture. , j ; Smoke One Vitn Me.

A number of stops wee soon uncovered and stories were afldat to the effect that a large number jof July notices had been put out but not stopped. Near midday the market made a "right about face" movement and advanced five to eight points rapid-'" ly on a flurry of covering, sudden de mand from,- the foreign element ajid bu vine for Wall street ' account. The change of position was due entirelyito reports from Texas that the crop hjad been badly " damaged : by tremendous rains, in some cases veritable cloud bursts, reaching in one instance oyer Bight finches in the' past 24 hours and over fourteen inches i in be forty eight hours. Private dispatches were slow in coming through, owine to the . fact that the wire service hadv been crippled by the storm. Those received stated that the rivers were out of the banks, the bottom lands under water, the 'fields in a number of d is- : tricts badly washed out, and the crop damaged. Several New Orleans houses endeavored to make light of the un favorable weather news, claiming tiat while the rains in the Southwest were unusually heavy, they could do ! no great harm to cotton at this- time in the season unless followed up . by con tinued generous precipitation. ) As was argued the soil would rapidly ab sorb the moisture, .being practically adapted to this purpose; and that in an average season the plants suffered more from drought than a superabun dance qf rain.- Bulls late in the flay were quite jubilant and worked " ener getically in an effort to regain somi of the lost ground, during the past: ten days.
