This is intended principally to
break up the control that the
railroads now exercise over the

As a rule, the coal business
of the railroads is organized

haps the most complete
now existing in America is the
anthracite-coal monopoly, and it
will be next to impossible to
break it up. For most great
trusts and combinations it is
easy to present a strong
cal based chiefly upon
the economies resulting from the
of united and co-
operative methods on the large
scale for the wastes and
of the old competitive sys-

object worthy of the careful study
of owner of a microscope. It
consists of four united masses, each
by a multitude of hole.-, the
openings being imperceptible to the
naked eye. These several holes
each permit the passage of a single
thread. Some idea of the
fineness of these threads may
