16 THE TRUST TEUTONIC Par Worse Animal Than His Amer ican Brother. IRON MANUFACTURER'S STORY Labor and Traile-Wlnning Systems of America and Germany Compared. Mow York Sun Saaolmi Sorvlom Berlin, Aug. 23. —"German labor would be invincible were it divested of its time killing social habits and inoculated _wHa Yankee Ingenuity," said Archer Brown, the New York pig iron manufacturer, who is investigating European trade con ditions. Mr. Brown left Berlin enroute for Russia and Scandinavia, after making his researches in Great Britain, Austria and Germany. He said: German industry does not suffer from the Bpirlt of domination that is experienced in the United States and England. The work ingmen are willing to put in long hours and to work for large wakes. They are intelli gently organized and are backed by great financial interests to a degree unknown else where. The two, indeed, are so closely inter woven that no one but an expert can pre dict how far-reaching will be the effect on the present financial crisis. The United States' ambition to figure as a world trader, and the operations of the United States Steel corporation are watched in Europe with keener interest than the political movements of the foreign powers. Germany is far bet ter equipped than England to resist Ameri oan competition in steel and iron. From the kaiser down to the humblest peasant, the empire is moving forward with military pre cision in the advance upon foreign trade. The Un^ed States lives in babyish igno rance of trusts and their highhandedness compared with what the best men of Germany know about these organizations. What would an American merchant think if, because he ordered a car load of bar iron or ten tons of coal outsid« of the syndicate controlling those products, he was thenceforth boycotted and his supplies permanently cut off? That's the way they do it in Germany. PASTOR IN LOCKUP Accused of Slanderous Statement >tade in the Pulpit. Norwalk, Conn., Aug. 23.—The Rev. Ed win Bell, pastor of the Baptist church at New Canaan, is in the New Canaan lockup because he cannot furnish a bond of $1,500 to insure his appearance for trial before the Fairfield county court of common pleas. He is accused of saying in Ms ser mon last Sunday that "Judge Nichols has not drawn a sober breath in six months." Mr. Bell had a hard time trying to get 1 11.500 surety for his appearance in court. He called upon many of his parishioners in company with an officer, hoping that they would come to his assistance. The necessary security was not forthcoming, however. The arrest caused a big sensa tion. Pastor Bell denies that he used I the language attributed to him, but Judge ! Nichols says he has a dozen witnesses) •who will testify that Bell used the lan guage Imputed to him. The minister's treatment of local political questions since coming to New Canaan has been vig orous. KILLED HIS CHUM John Hankra, n Duluth Boy, Acci dentally Shot. Special to The Journal. •Duluth, Minn., Aug. 23.—Robert Smith, the thirteen-year-old son of Chan Smith, president of the Union Zenith and Climax Building association, shot and instantly killed John Hawkes, aged fifteen, son of former City Assessor T. B. Hawkes, while hunting game at Sucker river, twelve miles eaet of the city, yesterday afternoon. They were inseparable companions, and every day had taken their rifles and gone on long jaunts together. Yesterday after noon they both espied a wild rabbit and proceeded to give chase. While hurrying through the tall grass near a pond, young Smith tripped and fell. His rifle was discharged, and the bullet entered Hawkes' heart. He sank to the ground and never uttered a sound. Smith hastened to a neighboring house and told what had happened. Several per- Bons went to the scene and conveyed the body back to the house. Later a teamster brought the Smith boy to the city, where the coroner was notified. The two fami lies, which ere among the most prominent in the city, are nearly crazed with grief. 919.50 Louisville, Ry., and Re tarn. $19.50.

Vanderbilt, in which the American millionaire makes a remarkable confession. This will be in teresting to the average man, who con siders great wealth as the inevitable foundation for happiness. The Vander bilt interview took place on his great ocean-going yacht, the Valiant. "My life was never destined to be quite happy," the millionaire is quoted as say ing bitterly. "It has been laid on lines which I could foresee almost from the earliest childheed. It has left me with nothing to hope for, with nothing definite to seek or strive for." "Is gTeat wealth a handicap to happi ness, Mr. Vanderbilt?" qustioned the in terviewer. "Inherited wealth, yes," was the de cided answer. "It is as certain death to ambition as cocaine is to morality. If a man makes money, no matter how much, he finds a certain happiness in its pos session, for in the desire to increase his business he has constant use for it, but the man who inherits it has none of this. The first satisfaction and the greatest, the building of the foundation of a fortune, is denied him. He must labor simply to add to what may be an oversufficiency." "And you, Mr. Vanderbilt?" "I! Oh, I get all the fun out of things. I am well pleased if other folks get some thing out of it also." FIND MILK A CURE ALL THIS THEIR ONLY SUSTENANCE Prominent Educators Head an Ex perimental Colony of Invalid*. Maw fir San Sandal ServFcct Waterbury, Ccnn., Aug. 23.—0n Thimble islands there is a colony of invalids who have quit eating and are partaking of what they assert is a new cure for near ly all ills that beset humanity. This new care is plain milk. It is said to have effected two remarkable cures, one a case which scientists were unable to cope with. There are nine in the colony, and each in valid declares himself greatly benefited by the newly discovered remedy. So far as can be learned Philip H. Rob inson, B. A., LL. D., registrar of the Catholic university at Washington, D. C, is the discoverer of the medical proper ties of milk. Mr. Robinson has suffered for years with a nervous disorder which specialists of renown have been unable to benefit. . Because, as he says, he was tired of everything, including eating, he determined a little more than a month ago to forego food and live on milk. The success of his experiment has more than surprised him. In the month that he has lived without solid food of any kind, he has gained eight pounds in weight and his nervous disorder has deserted him. He drinks ten quarts a day, a glass at a time, at intervals of half an hour. He declares that he will never eat again. Another disciple of the milk cure is Camillus H. Oatman, pro fessor at Williams college. He suffered with chronic kidney trouble, was induced by Professor Robinson to try milk, and, having gained six pounds in weight, be lieves himself cured.

HOSPITAL ON FIRE Lightning Tears Its Way to the Operating Rooms. PATIENTS SHOWERED WITH GLASS Doctors and Nariei Shocked and Woonded-Esperience of Weit Depere Woman. Special to The Journal. Elgin 111., Aug. 23.—With the last stitch in a ghastly wound in her body Just taken, Mrs. Charles Pelton of West Depere, Wis., lay on the operating table at the Sherman hospital at 12 o'clock to-day. As her uncle, Dr. 0. L. Pelton of this city, who was performing the operation, bent over the unconscious form of his niece, a blinding flash of lightning rent the skies and an instant later the bolt struck the flagstaff of the hospital. Tear ing its way through the cupola, it crashed through the skylight which forms the roof of the operating room in which Mrs. Pelton lay. A shower of glass fell into the room, striking the physician, the nurses and the patient. Many of the sharp particles pierced the flesh of Mrs. Pelton as she lay on the table under the influence of an anesthetic. Dr. Pelton, although se verely cut by the flying glass, pushed the operating table into a hallway and as quickly as possible removed every parti cle of glass that had penetrated the body of the prostrated woman, and it is now thought she will recover 1. In the mean time consternation reigned in the base ment, in the second floor operating room and on the roof, where a fire, which had been started, was making rapid progress. Drs. Will Brown and Burlingame, who were in the building, rushed to the attic and attached the hose. Ascending the roof, they fought the flames and managed to extinguish them. The flagstaff lay in the street a hun dred yards away, where it had been thrown by the force of the lightning. The slate roof was shattered and the skylight leading to the operating room was also broken. The operating room has a tile floor, and it is supposed that from this point the lightning followed the electric light wires to the basement. In an operat ing room on the second floor Drs. Brown and Burlingame were at work on a pa tient. The doctors were thrown into a state of great excitement by the loud re port which followed the crash on the floor above and Miss McGier, a nurse, was so badly shocked that her foot was paralyzed. Miss Turner, another nurse, was also shocked. The damage to the building is fully covered by insurance. CROCODILE TEARS These Fill the Indignant Voice of Norton Almost to Bursting. New York Sun Special Service Ashfleld, Mass., Aug. 23.—Professor Charles Eliot Norton of Harvard was the principal speaker at the annual dinner yesterday of the Sanderson Academy alumni, and he took occasion to return to the attack on President McKinley's colonial policy. He said: Child and lover of America as I am, my heart burns hot with indignant sorrow and humiliation as I regard our treatment of Por to Rico, of Cuba, of the Pihlippines. Are we morally so deaf that we don't hear the re proaches of men to whom we have broken our promises of independence and the bitter up braidings of those who had learned from our teachings that liberty was worth dying for? Can we stop our ears to the cries of inno cent women and children whom we have made desolate outcasts; to the groans of men whom we have shot down because they stood against us in the defense of what were once our principles, their rights and their honor? What sin, what folly, what shame are ours! We are all more or less responsible for the shame of broken national pledges, for the fol ly and the sin of war. It is we who are pay ing for the killing of men, the burning of villages, the subjugation of people over whom we have no right whatever. I, at least, and thoee who think as I do, will not cease to protest that a greater wrong is done to us Americans than to the Filipinos themselves by these degrading and criminal hostilities. Professor Norton referred to the cap ture of Aguinaldo in these -words: The most glorious event of the period was the capture, by a trick so mean as to make a traitor blush, of the leader of his people, once our friend and ally.
