tuken to Huston by specinl triiln and
iin arrival went to Symphony hall,
there addresslm; n urent nalherliiK of
ltoptoti liusiiuss men. His speei h here
was devoted almost entirely to n con
sideration of llie trust question.
From the hall the president went to
Hotel Touralne,' where a little later In
the evening he was the finest of Gov
ernor Crane at dinner.
This morning hrlulit iid early the
presidential party started for Maine.
Tlio president said In part:
"Kverytlilnn has been revolutionized
in the business world since the govern
ment was founded, and the prom-ess of
civilization from IicIiik a trickle has
become a torrent. There was no par
ticular thhiK at Hint time to'bothir as
to whether the nation or the stale had
control of the corporations. They were
easy to control. Now. however, the
exact reverse is the case, ami remem
ber I say 'corporations.' I do not
wiy merely trusts, merely combina
tions of corporations or corporations
under certain peculiar conditions. Tor
Instance, sonic time lino thu attorney
general took action against a certain
trust. There has been considerable
discussion as to whether the trust
aimed at would not peek to get out
from under the law by becoming u
single corporation. Now, I want laws
to enable us to deal with It no matter
what shape. It takes. 1 want to hih the
government to be able to get at it dcll
nitely, so that the action of the govern
ment cannot be evaded by any turn
ing within or without federal or state
statutes.
"At present wo have really no etli
clent control over a big corporation
which does business in more than one
(state, rreipiently the corporation has
nothing whatever to do with the state
in which It Is incorporated except to
get Incorporated, and its actions may
be taken In entirely different communi
ties, communities which may object
very much to the methods of incorpo
ration in the state named. I do not
think you can get action by any state,
action by nil the states, that will give
us satisfactory control of the trusts or '
big corporations, and the result Is at
present that we have a greaj, power
ful, artificial creation which has no
creator to which It is responsible.
"The creator creates It, and then it
goes and operates somewhere else, and
there Is no interest to the creator to
deal witli it. It does not do anything :
in that state. It operates outside en- I
tlrely. of course it Is a mere truism
that the corporation is the creature of
the state, that the state is sovereign.
Now, I M-ant to make a real and not a
nominal sovereign, to have some one
sovereign to which the corporation
shall be really, lvally and not nominal
ly, responsible.
"The first thing we want is the pub
licity, and I don't mean publicity as a
favor by some corporations, 1 mean
It as a right from all corporations af
fected by the law. I want publicity as
to the essential facts In which the pult
lic has an Interest. 1 want the knowl
edge given to the accredited repre
sentatives of the people of facts on
which those representatives can, If
they see lit, base their actions later.
The publicity itself would cure many
evils. The light of day Is a great de
terrent to wrongdoing. If the mere
fact of being able to put out nakedly
statements which would show the con
dition of tilings to be wrong, it would
go a long distance toward curing that
wrong, and even where it did not cure
It it would make the path evident by
which to cure It,
"We want to tie striving to see what
Is good and what Is bad. to know what
the facts are and to be able to shape
our course accordingly. Some of these
things I have said can be done now.
A good deal Is being dune now. As
far as the antitrust laws go they will
be enforced. Now, no suit will be
undertaken for the sake of seeming to
undertake it.
"Every suit that Is undertaken will
be begun because the great lawyer and
upright man whom we are so fortu
nate as to have as attorney general,
Mr. Knox, believes that there is a vio
lation of the law which we can get at,
and when thu suit Is undertaken it
won't be eomprninlsed, excepting on
the basis that the government wins.
"Of course, gentlemen, no laws
amount to anything unless they nre
administered lniestly and fearlessly.
You have got to have the administra
tion before the law amounts to any
thing. f
"Then I believe, I am not going to
say I am sure of it, but I believe It Is
possible to frame national legislation
which shall give us more power than
we have now, at any rate over corpo
rations doing an Interstate business. I
cannot guarantee that, because In thu
past it has more than once happened
that we have got laws on the statute
books which those who made them In
tended to mean one thing and when
they cume up for decision It was found
that the Intention had not been sue
cetMully put Into effect. Hut I bulitT4
that additional legislation can be hnd.
I think we have got to make up our
minds to the fact that If it proves on
effort that we have not under the con
stitution as It Is given the national ad
ministration sulllcient power In deal
ing with these great corporations then
no matter what our reverence to the
past may be our duty to the present
and to the future will force us to see
that more power Is conferred upon the
national administration."
GENERAL SICEL DEAD.

NKW YOKK, Aug. Hl'.-Ocnornl
Franz Sigel, the grizzled old warrior
who fought against the government
In the (ionium revolution of l.si.x-t'.i
and valiantly battled for the Fnion
through the civil war In the Fulled
States, Is tlead.
After a brief illness the beloved com
mander passed away nt his home, !;i
Mott avenue, In the Uronx.
If the general had lived until Nov.
TS, he would have been seventy-eight
years old.
For the last two months it has been
realized that General Sigel might die
GENEKAL SIGEL.
at any moment, and yet his end wos
somewhat unexpected.
Around the deathbed were gathered
three of General Sigel's sons, Kobert,
Faul and Kudolph, and his daughter,
Mrs. Leila Schehl, who has made her
home with General Sigel since her hus
bund's death.
The general was quite conscious al
most to the last and was able-to recog
nize and converse with those gathered
around him. When the final moments
came, he sank Into a deep sleep.
General Sigel was credited with do
ing more than any other person to
keep Missouri in the Union during the
civil war. Conspicuous in the mili
tary career of the dead general were
his brilliant, masterly retreats when
outnumbered by the enemy.
Horn In Germany, General Sigel re
ceived a military education there. He
never returned to Germany after com
ing to this country at the conclusion of
the German revolution, although he
was granted special amnesty in Still.
He came to this country in 1S52, went
to St. Louis and at the outbreak of the
civil war organized a regiment of in
fantry and a battery. The Germans
flocked to him. He fought conspicu
ously throughout the war, taking part
In all the principal engagements.
In 18U7 he came to this city, and In
1S71 he was appointed collector of In
ternal revenue and later was elected
register. He was pension agent under
Cleveland in INlMi.

to confirm or deny the persistent rumor
that he was to resign as president of

ROCK PORT. Mass., Aug. 25,-The
naval search problem on the New Eng
land coast was terminated at an early
hour by the signal "Surrender demand
ed; unconditional," from Rear Admi
ral Higglnson's flagship and the reply,
"Accept surrender," from the fore
truck of tin! Prairie, Commander Fills
bury's flagship. The battle between
the blue, or defending, squadron and
the white, or attacking, squadron was
thus quickly ended eight miles south
of Thatcher's Island, The enemy had
most signally failed to make a harbor
having for its objective Salem. A pre
ponderance of fighting strength, rela
tively 04 points, represented by the
battleships Kearsarge, Alabama and
Massachusetts, Vcorplou and a torpedo
boat, had overwhelmed the 45 points
represented by the auxiliary cruisers
Prairie, Panther and Supply.
To speak from a theoretic standpoint
the white squad,!n was entirely de
stroyed by the guns of the defending
battleships. Thus mi the fourth night
the game of naval strategy was
brought to an end, It having covered a
period of unceasing toll, sleepless
nights of anxious and wearing vigil
nnd of grave uncertainty to its partici
pants. The capture came at the end of a
night filled with rumors as to the loca
tion of the attacking squadron. At
ll:.'!0 p. in. the three battleships of Hlg
gitison got under way in a hurry and
sailed to the eastward. The intention
was to move on to Portland, and if
that had been carried out Admiral
Higglnson, as it later developed, would
have unconsciously swung the balance
of his fighting force to that end of tho
coast line, as Pillsbury hail intended he
should, but which was not done on ac
count of heavy seas running outside
Cape Elizabeth, lllgginson, however,
deflected his course back to Gloucester
after a swing seaward In response to
a report that the enemy had not been
Sighted when it was believed she had
been, but In the last hours of the night
Pillsbury sailed toward Cape Ann
COMMANDER TILLSBURY.
from the outside and, as it proved,
right under the very guns of the de
fending squadron. Commander Pills
bury, when still out to sea, after ma
neuvering, headed straight for Salem
harbor, but the desired vantage point
was never reached.
At this time the olllcer on the deck
of the Kearsarge was Lieutenant Ray
Stone, with Midshipman William Dil
worth Puleston as the Junior olllcer in
command. In contrast to others the
morning was clear and star bright.
On the bridge u dozen Jackles stood
on the lookout. One of these was
Daniel Staohlo, an apprentice of the
first class. Ho stood well forward,
peering on the lee side. The flagship
was Just falling down Into a trough
when he notified the ensign nt his
side that he could see the "enemy."
The olllcer of the deck called Flag
Lieutenant Evans and Flag Secretary
Itistol, and it was but the work of a
moment to inform Admiral Higgin
son of the probability that the time
for decisive action was at hand.
It was real war then. General quar
ters were sounded. There was a quick
rush of many feet, the manning of a
hundred posts, the clank of the an
chor chain, the ringing of bells, the
giving of orders and a general clear
ing for action. Not many moments
passed before the flagship was under
way steaming at fourteen knots, with
the Alabama and Massachusetts many
lengths lu the rear. Some distance
back was the Harney, rapidly over
hauling the ships ahead.
At o:40 a. m. the three battleships,
aided by the converted yacht Scorpion,
which had chased In from the south
in time to be lu at the finish, and thu
Barney, which had overtaken tho fleet,
formed a horseshoe about the white
squadron. The elation among tho men
on board tho blue squadron ran high.
There was something pathetic lu the
picture when Commander Pillsbury,
after he had signaled his surrender,
passed in Ids barge from the Prairie,
walked up the starboard gangway of
the Kearsarge and offered his sword to
Admiral Higglnson,
"Keep your sword, sir," said the
senior olllcer, his voice quavering a
bit In spite of himself. "1 would not
accept the sword from so gallant a
foe."
"And I, sir," responded Pillsbury,
with dignity, "could not surrender to
a nobler or better olllcer, sir."
