ADMIRAL SCHLEY'S CHEF HELD IP AND ROBBED Di WIS. Joseph Alphonio Eberhardt Roughly Handled Near the Capitol Park, Madlion, Special to The Journal. Madison, Wis., Nov. 23.—Joseph Al phonso Eberhardt of Alsace Lorraine, who was Admiral Schley's chef and cooked breakfast for him on the flagship New York the morning Cervera's fleet was de molished, was held up and robbed about 1 o'clock this morning as he was passing Christ Episcopal church. Just outside of Capitol park he was met by three men, one of whom asked the time, and as he was replying another hit him over the head with a club knocking him down. The robbers then took his pocketbook con taining $15 and his gold rimmed eye glasses, and decamped. EJberhardt had attended a free vaude ville show during the evening and had shown some money while in the hall, and it ia supposed the robbers followed him from there. He told his troubles to the police to-day, but they have no clue to the robbers. Eberhandt says he was chef to General Woods in Cuba and previous to his mili tary experience was chef for Cornelius Vand«rbilt and Levi P. Morton. The past summer he has been chef for the Ringling Bros.' show. Fred R. Eastman, an electrician, was before the municipal court to-day on the charge of stealing electricity .from the Madison Gas & Electric company, by means of a "Jumper wire" which diverted the current around his motor. He pleaded .not guilty and was placed under $100 ball. /This is the second case of the kind here recently. CANADIAN TROOPS ACCEPTED.

TARIFF ISSDE It Would Burst Out in Fury Should Business Become Unsettled. -J^*i l* **••»«•»•»••* Sar*mu. JCmm AS, Tm» Building. Wmshlnttmn- . . .*.......... . . Washington, Nov. 23.—1n the latest in terviews of Senators Hawley, Allison and Quarles the geographical character of the tariff issue is made increasingly plain. The Connecticut senator i« opposed to reciprocity treaties squarely. The lowan, although long noted for his extreme con servatism, believes that the tariff could be reduced to advantage on many articles, and tout for the opening of the whole teriff controversy which this would occasion would favor reductions. He is, at least, friendly to a courteous treatment of the reciprocity treaties, even though it may not be found expedient to ratify any of them. The Wisconsin senator would like to have "a 'tariff and reciprocity commis sion" established, made up of the strong est men in the country, protectionists and low tariff men, and he named ex-Speaker Reed as the sort of person whom he would like to have head it. Mr. Quarle9 believes something will be fore long have to be done. While it is ,safe to predict that the Kasson treaties will be rejected, it is evident that the tariff question is strongly in the air, and were business conditions to show any un settlement for any reason, it would burst out in fury. To avoid the dangers of a storm is the present aim of the advocates of concession. —W. W. Jermane. CURBING TRUSTS Industrial Commission Says They Should Be Under Federal Supervision. Mmw York Sun Snmolml Mmt-vtom Washington, Nov. 23.—The existence of the Industrial commission terminates on Dec. 15, and on that date the report of the commission with its recommendations will be submitted. While the commission is still divided over some aspects of the trust question, the members have agreed on the basic proposition that the trusts should be brought under federal supervision simi lar to that exercised over the national banks. The commissioners think that the books of the great corporations should be as open to inspection by federal officers as are the books of the national banks. They think that the greatest popular objection to trusts Is that they are enabled to crush competition by underselling their compet itors In one part of the country and mak ing up their losses by increasing the cost of their products in other parts of the country where they are free from compe tition. Another of their strong objections to the existence of the trusts is the amount of water introduced into their stocks. By bringing the trusts under federal super vision the commissioners think they can be compelled to exhibit their assets in the way of stocks, bonds, real estate, plants, etc., and can be prevented from issuing more stock than their actual assets war rant.

London, Nov. 23.—The British sugar magnates assert that their investigations have revealed the existence in Germany of a great trust called the "kartell," which has been in existence about a year, and that it is chiefly owing to its agency that sugar has been forced down in Eng land and other countries to its low est point in the history of the indus try and that Germany to-day is enabled to dictate to the world the price of that commodity. The British government will be urged to empower its representatives at the Brussels conference to threaten retaliatory countervailing measures un less the "kartell" is broken up or at least modified. Germany now produces one-third of the world's supply of beet sugar, of which she exports no less than 1,250 000 tons after completely supplying her own pop ulation. These exports, which are almost one-fifth of the world's available supply are sent out at a loss to German manufac turers, but thanks to the "kartell" plus the bounty, they are able not only to make up for this, but to reap a handsome profit in addition to gaining absolute control of the BUgar market. WILL VISIT STARS Peculiar Belief of a Sect Nav igating the Mississippi River. Mmw YmmkMun Sooc/al Smr-vlom St. Louis, Nov. 28.—Anchored in this port is a modern Noah's ark, bearing ninety-six members of a new religious sect who purpose navigating the Missis sippi until the millenium, which they be lieve will begin within forty years. This craft arrived here yesterday. The study of astronomy is one of the principal occupations of the association of Chris tian Brethren, as the members of the new sect term themselves. The Magiddo is the name of the craft occupied by the brethren. It is a typical Mississippi steamer. "Megiddo" is an ancient He brew word for "The Lord of Hosts." Said one of the peculiar sect: We believe that the mlllenium will come in the year 1941. We believe that at the end of 6,000 years of mans earthly existence, which will come in 1941, the earth will become paradise, and man, with his earthly 6bdy restored, but with new powers and properties, will be able to soar to the most remote planets until all of God's creation har. been traversed. The sun, Neptune, 2,856.000,000 miles from the sun, Jupiter, Saturn, the fixed stars, all will be visited by man in those days. Therefore our members make astronomy their principal study next to the more simple teachings of the gospel. SECRETARY TO KITTREDGE Ex-Prison Warden Nye K. Phillip* Given the Place. Sioux Palls, S.

DIRECTORATE The Retirement of Hill and Harri miiu Regarded by Wall Street hi Probable. New York, Nov. 23.—James J. Hill, president of the Northern Securities com pany, has issued the following circular to the stockholders of the Great North ern Railway company: The Northern Securities company, incorpo rated under the laws of New Jersey with an authorized capital stock of $400,000,000 and 1 with power to invest in and hold the securl ! ties of other companies, has commenced busl i ness and has acquired from several large i holders of stock of the Great Northern Rail j way company a considerable amount of that I stock. A uniform prk e has been paid of $180 I per share in the fully paid stock of this com- I pany at par.

New York, Nov. 23.—'Wall street places much credence in the rumors that James J. Hill and E. H. Harriman are to retire from the directorate of the Northern Pacific. Possible changes in the North- | ern Pacific board have been discussed i since Governor Van Sant took such a de-»| cided stand against the Northern Securities company. Deal Practically Complete. The Northern Securities deal Is virtu ally complete. It is understood on good' authority that the majority of the stock has been turned.in to_the syndicate and j that the Harriman interests have already turned over their 41,000 shares of the preferred stock and are turning in their 3,000 shares in the common stock in j Northern Pacific. The control of the ma jority holdings of such an extensive sys tem of railway, it is believed, will have a tendency in the future to prevent suc cessful assaults on the stock market by groups of speculative operators. It is said that James R. Keeue has been retained to conduct the defensive opera itons for the Northern Securities com pany. In preparation for the bull cam- j paign which it will inaugurate later in i the winter, for the purpose of disposing j of the surplus holdings of stock, it is said that Mr. Morgan and Kuhn, Loeb & Co., have made extensive financial ar rangements abroad. COCHRANE IS CONFIDENT Railway Combine, He Says, Can Be Defeated. Special to The Journal. Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 23. —John M. : Cochrane.the attorney, in an interview ex i pressed confidence that the railroad mer ger can be defeated, as under it the com panies attempt to do indireotly what the law of Minnesota expressly forbids, and this law has been upheld by the supreme court of the United States. He approves of the course of Governor Van Sant, and says regarding the situa tion in the state of North Dakota that there is no such positive expression on our statute books denying the right of one railroad company to absorb a parallel or competing line as is to be found in Minnesota, and which is to be found in many of the states of the union. This, however, can be speedily remedied by the passage of such laws during the next ses sion of the legislature. He believes popular sentiment will demand such legis lation without delay. "It would seem very poor policy," he says, "to allow two competing lines, with i practically 4,500 miles of road each, to j combine and thus eliminate all competi tion. The patrons of the roads would then be utterly helpless, and the money for any desired profit would be wrung from them. The Great Northern and Northern Pacific were granted so many privileges to start with that should they be allowed to con solidate they could all but defy legislation, and their rights would make it almost im possible to reach them through legisla | tion. "Public sentiment is overwhelmingly against the consolidation ot competing lines and such consolidation has been de nounced by the courts, so that if a strong fight is put up against the combine there ' can .be but one outcome."

He came to St. Paul on business yesterday and . had a lengthy conference with the governor last even ing. Mr. Jacobson again pledged his hearty support to the governor's crusade against railroad consolidation. What is more tangible, he pledged that as chair man of the eppropriations committee • he would do all in his power to assure the governor all necessary funds to employ counsel and carry on his work In every way. Mr. Jacobson said this morning: "I am with the governor heart and soul. I am fully convinced of his sincerity and determination in this fight. Some of our people were surprised at the gover nor's action, but I was not. I told them long ago: 'The governor is all. right. He does not go up and down the street howl ing aginst the corporations, but when the , time comes j for i him to act, you will find him on the right elde.' . "I don't know Just what shape it will take, but there will be some way of get ting at it. "One thing to encourage us is that we do not have all the railroads to fight this time.
