COKEErOXDESCE OF THE DISPATCH.
Chicago, Aug. 14. United States Dis
trict Attorney Milehrist, of Chicago, in
common with all other United States Dis
trict Attorneys in the country, received a
copy of the recent circular of Attorney Gen
eral Miller calling attention to the pro
visions of the Sherman anti-trust law,
paed by the lat Congress, and suggesting
to him to find out if there were any illegal
combinations in his bailiwick, and, if fo,
to proceed to annihilate them. Mr. Jlil
chH't has since held consultations with
numerous business .men who claim to have
been victimized by trusts of various kinds,
End already ha has enough testimony, he
lays, to w arrant him in proceeding against
the hard coal barons and another less
known, hut equally oppressive, combina
tion of quarry men, by which local dealers
in stone are squeezed.
To-day Mr. Milehrist announced that he
had come to the conclusion that he could
not proceed against incorporated trusts, of
which the whisky Trust is tne ivpe. lie
says that in his judgment those trusts which
are organized as corporations, and whose
cornoratc orcanization owns the various es
tablishments controlled by them, are not
within the purvicv'of the act of Congress,
and therefore he will not proceed against
them.
coon rou some trusts.
If Mr. Milehrist is richt in this opinion it
is a verv luckv thine lor several recently
formed 'incorporated trusts, which have been
quaking in their lxwts for the last few
weeks. The Columbia Patent Company, in
which the barbed wire men organized, is one
of these, and in it a large Pittsburg estab
lishment takes a prominent part. The
United Glass Company, by which the win
dow glass trade is controlled, is another. If
the District Attorney adheres to his present
determination, none'of these people are to
he disturbed.
It follows, as a necessary consequence,
that the act of Congress is scarcely worth
the pnper it is printed on, for all that
is necessary to make a trust invulnerable is
to organize it in the lorni of a corporation,
and let the corporation own and
operate all the establishments which
it is sought to combine. An incor
porated trust, as experience has shown, is
the most effective in its operation of all
that has been devised. The various inter
ests in it are more completely under the con
trol of the managing head than they could
he under any other arrangement, and con
sequently it is more injurious to the inter
ests of ttie consumer than any other style of
trusts.
If Mr. Milchrist'e statement is correct,
that trusts, in the form ot corporations, are
exempt from the operation of the act of
Congress, the effect of that measure must
prove the verv opposite to that which those
who drafted ft intended, as it will force all
trusts to incorporate and so will render
them even more numerous and troublesome
than before.
LAWYKliS NOT SntPRISED.
Chicago lawyers are not surprised that
the District Attorney should reach this
conclusion. For, if he took the ground that
incorporated trusts were open to attack, it
would be necessary to proceed at once to
f-trikc at the loncest and boldest of them.
the "Whisky Trust, which recently absorbed
the Sliufeldt distillery alter so many at
tempts to burn and blow it up.
A writer in the current number of.an En
glish legal magazine gii es a readable de
scription of a society which has been in
operation at Copenhagen, Denmark, for the
)ast few years, for furnishing advice and
lecnl service to people who are not able to
pay for it. In that city, as in Chicago, and
lerh.ips all other American cities, there are
larse classes of people so poor as not to be
able to obtain the services of an attorney,
and who theretore fall easy victims to
money-lender and sharks of various sorts.
The society leforred to w as organized by a
number of charitable people, and its staff
was composed of law students and young
lawyers, who gae their services" free,
profiting, perhaps, by the notoriety which
thej- obtained and the acquaintances which
they lonned in doing its work.
OITRATIONS Or THE SOCIETY.
Its operations are confined to the very poor.
Those aKo entirely unable to pay lor the
services rendered, and in all cases where it
is subsequently discovered that the appli
cant lor advice has ability to pay. he is
made to nay the society at the usual rates
charged by the practising attorneys. The
bociety finds plenty of work to do in the
collection of wace claims, in the prevention
of injustice to the tenant by the landlord,
in restraining the rapacity of the monej
lender and in enforcing reparation for
offenses against women.
In Chicago, a similar organization has
been busilv at work for about five years
past, and during that time it has grown in
importance steadilv until now it is looked
upon as one of the institutions of which the J
cjiy iias limn rrjisun 10 ue proua. uniiKe
the Danish society, the Chicago Bureau of
Justice does not limit its work to gratuitous
services, nor does it aim to serve only those
who are unable to pay at all. It charges
for its work, obtaining the money in ad
vance if the applicant is able to pay it and
invariably collecting a fee out of the pro
ceeds of the litigation if there are any. In
cases where only advice is given, and in
cases where harm is prevented and nomoney
or property is recovered, no charge is made,
or rather it is lclt to the honor of the per
son in whose favor the service is rendered
vhether auy fee shall be paid or not.
reasonable terms, but usually not without
going into the courts.
Through its influence a modification of
the law with reference to the foreclosure of
mortgages on household furniture has been
made by a recent act of the Legislature, and
some of the flagrant outrages that were
formerly of frequent occurrence are no
longer possible.
The bureau's operations, as can readily be
seen, involve the outlay of a large amount
of money every year. Its balance is nsnally
found on the wrong side of the ledger, but
the charitable people who hold the shares
of its capital stock do not mind this, so long
as it is such a potent agency for the preven
tion of injustice and wrong to the poor.
EAST END BURGLARIES.
GEH. SHEEMAN'S DAUGHTER ENGAGED.
The Residence or A. 51. Yolgt Entered With
a.Iiram) Jewelry and 'Watches Vnlned
nt $500 Carried Away Thursday Even
ing. The residence of A. M. Voigt, of the
Storage and Supply Company, Liberty
street, who resides near the corner of High
land avenue and Margaretta street, was
forcibly entered by a burglar, or burglars,
Thursday eening, and watches and jewelry
valued at J300 are gone.
Mr. Voigt went to Camp Kensington on
Thursday and his family were attending a
picnic On this account the house was
locked tip and left without an occupant
until about dark. When the family re
turned the servant girl entered first andspon
came out again, saying there was a burglar
in the house. A neighbor went for an officer
and a search of the premises was made, but
no burglar was found.
The knight of the dark lantern had en
tered by way of the cellar, forcing open the
kitchen door at the top of the stairs with a
jimmy. He had then opened the rear door
to provide lor a hasty retreat. The house
was found in contusion. All of the trnnks,
bureau and dresser drawers had been turned
inside out, and the rooms w ere littered with
the contents.
This is the third burglary that has been
committed in the East End within the past
few weeks, and there is not a clue to the
author up to date. The theory that one man
has been doing all the work unaided seems
to find the most favor with the detectives at
work on the case.

KOBE FBATJDS BROUGHT TO LIGHT,
In the Investigation or the Swindling Build
ing and Loan Concern.
Chicago, Aug. 14. Postoffice Inspector
Stuart was in receipt of many letters to-day
which shovr that the National Capital Sav
ings and Building and Loan Association
was even a greater swindle than at first sup
posed. Daniel Kouns, a Leeds, la., farmer
writes that not only did the association suc
ceed in getting him to purchase stock, but
it got the deed to his farm as well. He
says:
I bonght ten shares of stock for which I
expected a loan. I paid three months' dues
in ad ance, $10 for appraising my property,
and $j additional dues August 3. I got my
receipt, but they answered that I couldn't
get a loan as the abstract I sent them of the
deed didn't show I owned the land. I cent
them the deed and they now have it. Please
send it back.
A man in Lewiston, Pa., representing
a large number of people who formed a syn
dicate to purchase shares in the association,
writes that the syndicate invested in 32
shares which were paid for in full. "Before
investing, however," says the Lewiston
man, "ne were very cautious and went to
the Auditor General, who looked up the in
corporation papers of the association and
indorsed it highly." Lewis F. Mortimer,
the absconding mannger, the authorities
have discovered has escaped to Canada.
His father, also an officer ol the association,
has not been heard from.
C0L1MA STJBIED IN ASHES.
The Eruption of the Volcano Near the Town
Still In Progress.
Crrr or Mexico, Aug. 14. A telegram
received here yesterday from Colima states
that ashes from the volcano have ceased to
fall in that city, though the column of fire
is still the same as it was yesterday. The
ashes which have fallen in some cases have
attained a depth of from three to six inches
on housetops and in the streets.
The eruption is on a scale of magnitude
that has never before been observed.
Streams of lava many feet in width are now
coursing down the sides of the volcano,
burning everything in their course. It is
stated that the Governor of Colima has sent
a commission to the volcano to make a sci
entific report npon the present eruption.

Suing for the Price of a Horse.
William H. Drain yesterday entered suit
gainst Ross Davidson for 150 damages.
Drain states that he placed a horse with
Davidson to be pastured. Davidson put the
horse in a field, the fence of which was
down. The horse wandered into the next
field, fell into a cellar and was killed.

COM.V.CTING WAGE CLAIMS.
The great bulk of its work up to thiB time
has been in the collection of wage claims.
Employers of domestics aud laborers in this
citv seem peculiarly apt toforget their obli
gations toward their employes and every
week scores of domestics swarm into the
consultation rooms of the bureau, asking
for help. The society has the ex
clusive services of "two attorneys,
each of whom is paid a salary. At
stated office hours the junior attorney
listens to the queries of.its clients and mails
a note to the debtors, asking immediate
payment of the claim, or an explanation
why it should not he paid. If neither is
made, and the "client has no money, the
bureau begins suit, advancing the court
costs and at the time set for the hearing its
assistant attorney is at hand, and the case is
tried in all respects, as if the claimant haa
secured the services of one of the best law
firms in the city. The judgment, when ob
tained, is followed up promptly with a levy
on the debtor's property, aud in thema
jority of instances the money is soon forth
coming. A very large class of cases in this city
grows out of chattel mortgage loans, made
on the household lurnituic or other goods
of poor people. Frequently 200 per cent
per month is exacted by the money lender,
and lenewalsof the ban and extensions of
the time of payment are obtained on the
hardest terms which the borrower can be
made to stand.
HARDSHIPS OF THK POOB.
It often happens that a young woman
finds herself threatened with the seizure of
all her household furniture after paying
twice or three times the amount of money
she has borrowed on it only a few months
before. Her only resort is to the charity
of. some lawyer who is not too husv to at
tend to her iiccds for nothing. The Bureau
of Justice carclully sifts out such cases, at
times compelling a settlement on finrlv

Everything in the House Subject to 25
Per Cent Discount Store Open From
7 A. M. till 9 P. M.
We didn't attempt the impossible when we in
augurated this sale. The command from headquarters
was: "Sell the goods. The more expeditious the way
the better we will like it" We knew no better way
than a magnificent discount from the regular prices.
We made it Twenty-five per cent The way the peo
ple have responded is remarkable. Our sales are
thousands of dollars ahead of last year's business. As
a witness of confidence in our methods and merchan
dise it is equally gratifying.
We are firm believers in .the power of printer's
ink. We know that this advertisement will have a big
audience. Just what percentage contemplate purchas
ing clothing we wouldn't like to guess. But we are
sure of one thing. The biggest value in clothing to
day is right here. We are sure of another thing. All
the clothing we have is our own manufacture, highly
creditable to our manufacturing force, and sure to give
all buyers an abundance of satisfaction.
Have you thought how big a discount Twenty-five
per cent is?
