WASHINGTON, D. C., Ju» I —
Inquiring whether th* proposed
American-British arbitration treaty
is'directed against Germany. Repre
sentative Hamill ot New York has in
troduced a resolution in the house

Ml Hamill bases his demand upon
the alleged endorsement by United
States Consul General Griffiths at
London of a recent speech In parlia
ment by Sir Edward Grey, the minis
ter for foreign affairs, in which the
latter intimated strongly that such
was the aim of the treaty proposed
by President Taft. Mr. Hamill char
acterizes Mr. Griffith’s endorsement
as "offensive to the majority ot
American citizens."
The foreign affairs committee has

the London morning papers eontala
ing the reports of Judge Gary’s tes
timony in the steel trust Inquiry
handed him by a reporter. Thon ho
sat in the Coburg hotel while the mo
tor ear waited outride and wrote the
following:
"Judge Gary's statements an re
ported this morning embraces and sot
ties the whole matter. When X de
clared some yean ago that combina
tions meant ultimate control by the
government of all manufacturers,
railways, etc., I was thought wildly
radical, but there la no recourse.
"Our court of commerce will have
access to all the books and acts of cor
porations and will fix prices accord
ing to the profits revealed."
Millionaires Win Be Scarce.
Here Mr. Carnegie stopped writing,
looked up and remarked:
’The 25 to 50 per cent profits will
be no more. People will have to bo
content with 5 and 10 per cent.
"Multi-millionaires will then be very
scarce.” he added with a chuckle.
Then he resumed writing as follows:
"It will deal liberally with capital,
but also justly with the consumers.
At last we shall have peace and con
tentment In the wide range of produc
tion and this new plan will be far
more satisfactory to both parties than
any the world has yet known.
Praises Judge Gary.
Judge Gary knows that the meet
ings held of steel manufacturers ha*
no aim other than to maintain prices
and that the people would never tol
erate such monopoly. He proves his
greatness by boldly meeting the Is
sues. He bridges the chasm and de
serves great consideration for going
to the root of the diseases and adopt
ing the only remedy.
"I welcome him as the worthiest
leader of the movement Let our
country set the world an example. No
monopolies, but prices fixed by the
'commission of fair men.
Means Industrial Peace.
"The presidents of our railroads,
notably Mr. McCrea, of the Pennsyl
vania system, have led the way. In
dustrial peace is at hand just as Inter
national peace and the abolition of
war Is between nations.”
As Mr. Carnegie finished writing
he folded the copy and handed It to
the correspondent saying:
“I am glad to give thls'to Mr. Hearst
and his papers. It will be a scoop for
them. Mr. Hearst has always been
for peace, as T ar.. You can read It
in his paper always."
Mr. Carnegie Jumped Into hls big

"I never was happier. Everything
Is bright with the sunshine of life,"
he cried as the car started and he
waved farewell to hls friends.
CONTROL HELD BY FIVE MEN
Tasman Copley Makes State
ment to Graduating Class.
(SPECIAL TO THE LIGHT)
WASHINGTON. June 3. —Absolute
control of the railroad, telegraph, tel
ephone. Iron and steel Industries rests
in the hands of five men, who are the
principal owners of the United States
Steel corporation, according to a state
ment made by Representative Ira C.
Copley of Illinois in the graduation
address to the Bliss Electrical school
last night at Carroll institute.
Tn addition to this Representative
Copley said the same men control 70
per cent of the banking interests of
New York and that practically every
gas and electric plant In the country
is dominated by them.
Mr. Copley addressed hls remarks
principally to the young men—and
told them it was their duty to remedy
these evils. He declared the country
was facing the same problem as In
1861 and that It would take all the
strength of the greatest statesmen to
bring the powerful interests and
trusts and corporations under federal
regulation.
"We are face to face with the great
est problem of our existence," he said.
"In 1860 the question was. shall the
union be supreme? Tn 1862, shall
4,000,000 black men remain tn bond
age’ And now. shall five men who
dominate the United States Steel cor
poration rule the country by an oli
garchy of wealth, or shall the people
govern for the benefit of all the peo
ple and give every man a square deal?
"The five men who control the
United States Steel corporation also
control 70 per cent of all the railroads
of the country. Indirectly they con
trol nearly all the rest. They dom
inate ell the telegraph and telephone
business through ownership of the
American Telegraph and Telephone
company. This company in turns
owns 51 per cent of all the Bell pat
ents In this country. Less than a
year ago this company bought the
Western Union Telegraph company.
These men also dominate the General
Electric company and the Westing
house Electric company.

regulation and control by competent
and disinterested experts of public
service and interstate corporations, a

scientific schedules, some similar

COOK HAD PRESENTIMENT
OF APPROACHING DEATH
Alvarado Dressed tn New Black Sult
Before Going to Cafe Where
Bo War Stabbed.
Two hours before ho was fatally
stabbed. Julio Alvarado, a cook em
ployed in a local restaurant, who died
about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon at
the city hospital, dressed himself in
a new black suit It was the first time
ho had worn it, and, according to his
own statement, ho did so simply be
cause ho felt that ho Should wear it
Alvarado expressed hls belief that he
had a presentiment of something un
usual to occur. .
Two hours after ho left hie room
ing house, lIS North Laredo street,
which was at 1:80 o'clock yesterday
morning, Alvarado was stabbed. Leos
than seven hours later ho was a
corpse. Fernando Gonsalea a Span
iard. who gives his age as II yearn
but Whom the police believe to be
about II years or older, is In the coun
ty jail charged with murder. Immedi
ately following the death of Alva
redo an affidavit was filed against him
In Justice Fisk's court by City De
tective Casstano, charging murder In
Heu of a complaint for assault with
Intent to murder, previously filed.
"I am going to wear my black suit
today,” Alvarado is said to have re
marked to Jesus Orosco, a companion,
who rooms at the same place on La
redo street, just before he left for
work Saturday morning.
"What do you want to wear a black
suit for?" Orosco asked, knowing that
Alvarado worked tn a kitchen and
might soil the suit, which had just
been received from the tailor.
"I don’t know why I want to wear
it," Alvarado is said to have replied,
adding, "unless it is because I have
never worn it before. Anyway, I feel
that I ought to wear it, even though
I am going to wort."
Alvarado reached the cafe and be
gan work. Shortly he became engaged
In a quarrel with Fernando Gonsales,
the Spaniard. Before any of the oth
er employes and attendants realized
that trouble was brewing, a pointed
and very sharp blade, measuring four
teen inches of a carving knife had
been plunged into the side of Alva
rado. He sank to the floor mortally
wounded. The blade, say the attend
ing physicians penetrated the body
not less than eight or ten inches pass
ing between the fifth and sixth ribs
just below the heart, and pierced the
left lung. He was h irried to the city
hospital. Gonzales was taken to the
city hall and later transferred to the
county jail.
Alvarado died without being ablj

AGAINST LAW'S REVISION
Administration Believes Recent De
cisions Show Strength of
Provision.
WASHINGTON, June 3.—President
Taft and Attorney General Wicker
sham will set their faces against any
attempt to amend the Sherman anti
trust law along the lones suggested
by Judge Gary in his testimony before
the Stanley committee.
In view of the administration, the
Sherman law needs no amending.
Here Is the policy of the admin
istration which will be formulated af
ter a careful consideration of the su
preme court decision In the Standard
Oil and tobacco trust decisions.
The statement is used as express
ing the official view of the admin
istration. In consequence of these
two big decisions the attorney general
regards himself as perfectly equipped
now to enforce the Sherman anti-trust
law against all and every offender
against the law In the nation.
As attorney General Wickersham In
terprets the decision in the tobacco
case, and this is most important since
it is contrary to the general view that
has been taken, the circuit court for
the southern district of New York has
for the purpose of having a means
had the case remanded back to it, not
by which the American Tobacco com
pany may continue business, but sole
ly to arrive at the most Just and ex
peditious manner in which the com
pany shall be dissolved.
Dissolution is what the supreme
court ordered in the view of the at
torney general for the Standard Oil
company as well as for the tobacco
trust. There Is no other way out as
Mr. Wickersham reads the decision. I
And not only Is this the view of the j
attorney general, but officials of the
department of justice are learning I
from the officials of the big trusts
and their officials that the decisions
are similarly regarded and inter
preted in the offices of the corpora
tions most directly concerned.

JUNE CLEARANCE SALE
Heavy Purchases By Women Shoppers
Indicate Summer Business in All
Lines WiU Be Good.
In order that no stock may be car
ried over from one season to the next.
Washer Bros, have Instituted a semi
annual clearance sale which will last
throughout the greater part of June.
In keeping with its policy that all old
goods must go, the linn Is making
sweeping reductions In women's spring
wearing apparel and purchases are
now to be made at exceptionally low
values.
In view of the fact that the sum
mer season Is on and business all over
the city is naturally becoming slower,
It seems probable that department
store sales would have fallen off, but
W. J. Bagot, of the firm of Washer
Bros., reports that business was re
markably healthy in May. Now that
the clearance sale Is on and with the
heavy shipments of new summer
goods that are daily arriving, Mr.
Bagot predicts that the volume of the
June business will far exceed that of
In the opinion of Mr. Bagot this
uphold of the sale of women's wearing
apparel in May and June augurs well
for all enterprises In San Antonio. He
thinks that as long as women con
tinue to purchase strongly, it means
that the various enterprises In which
their relatives are Interested are flour
ishing. In former years business has
become noticeably duller Just at this
time, but the activity in women’s
goods now Is indicative of continued
prosperity of San Antonio throughout
the summer.

JURORS GOT PAID, TOO.
?aseM Dollar Fine, Draw Three Dol
lars In Fees.
A verdict Imposing a fine of one
hundred cents against J. D. Chlldres.
was returned by a Jury in police court
yesterday after a long drawn-out
trial. Chlldres was charged with hav
ing disturbed the peace on complaint
of B. W. Miller, a policeman. This is
the smallest fine ever imposed by a
jury in the police court.
The case was hard fought, the
prosecution using several witnesses in
an effort to show that the defendant
had created a disturbance of the
peace. This was as vigorously op
posed by counsel for the defense and
was followed by stirring arguments by
the opposing attorneys. The case con
sumed several hours in the hearing
and it was just before the noon hour
that the Jury returned the minimum
penalty. /
In the police court, where jury
cases are tried, the jurors receive no
compensation where a verdict of not
guilty is returned. In the event a fine
is imposed, the jurors receive fifty
cents each as fees. The total amount
of the fine aggregated four dollars,
three of which went to pay the mem
bers of the Jury.
