HAMMOND OF TRUST - TO BOOST FOR TAFT 1 By John rt Lthrop. ' Chleato. 111., Oct 13. Amaiement wii eipreaaed In many quarter when It waa announced that John Haya Ham mond, president of the National I.oague of Republican cluba, la to tftJto the atump for Judge Tuft. Mr. Hammond la the malnatay of the Guggenheim inciter truat In Ita engineering dopart rnent, drawing the largeat aalary evr paid auch an official, reputed to bo aeveral hundred thousand dollar. It haa biien cited that throughout the weatern atatea tlier la an Immense body of Independent mlneownrr and workmen employed In the mlm-a to whom the name of Guggenheim la anathema. Una of the things which haa operated to Induce thla cordial hatred Is the abolition of the rule or permit! Inic u plrea" to be present when ores are be Ing assayed for sale at the siucltrrs. Abolish Sale. In fprmrr years, before the Ouggen helms obtulned control of smelting, um plres were allowed to be prvsent o see that the assay waa correct, and that the mlneowner got what wua com ing (o him for the ore no waa selling 'J 'ha Uuggenheims abolished this rule, und assays now are marie In secret. kat winter In Washington an Oregon mlneowner, who Is Independent of the trust, told me the following story: "I own a gold mine in southwestern Oregon, which gives oro carrying a good proportion of sliver. I shipped a car of ore to San Krunclsco for sale, anil when the amelter oeoole took their sample to assay I got half of It and. brought It tu Washington. The smelter made Its return on the sample, and the assayer here did the same, with the result that it was proven that had the Washington assay been returned by the Bun Francisco smeller 1 would have had nearly twice as much for my ore as the smelter allowed me. Cbanoe for Fraud. "The abolition of the rule permitting the mlneowner to have an umpire pres ent opens the way for possible de frauding of the owner." During the winter. Idaho miners were in Washington and I submitted the statement of that Orpgon miner to them, and It was indorsed unreservedly. One Coeur d'Alene miner said: "The regime inaugurated by the Gug genheim smelter trust operates to the disadvantage of every independent mlneowner and workman In the coun try. Not only as to the abolition of the umpire rule, but In another respect the Guggcnholms work hardship on our people the Independents. "Sometime ago I needed a sldetracit built to my mine, that I might ship my ore where I would, and not be de pendent on the smelter trust for re duction of my product. I applied to the railroad company, (naming one of the Hill or Harrlman lines) and showed my need. I was Informed that I would have to see the traffic manager in Chicago. Go See rcklea. "I went to Chicago, and was told by the manager that 1 would have to see 81 Kckles, vice-president and traffic manager of the Guggenheim smelfr trust in New York. Of course, Mr. Kckles refused my request. "The upshot of the whole matter was that Kckles must firs! S. K.' my railroad would ! application before the U a"'v" me my sidetrack. ii is irue mac tr. pij-iu me In a position to sell my mine to the Uuggenhelina, If I wanted to; but I had devoted my life to building- up my buslnesa, and did not want to abdi cate to the truat, under force of such circumstances. "The traffic theory In thl matter Is exactly the attorn aa that upon which John l. Hockcfeller went when he un built the Mm n. la id OH that of obtain ing power over rallrouda so aa to com pel tlimn to do hla will. The smelter truer simply threatened to divert freight rrom the road which refused to let 81 Kckles he the arbiter of requests from Independent mlneowner for facilities for shipping ore." Onrrenbelm's Xaply. Thla storv was printed st the time In The Journal. Capital Newa and New York World, and lmnlel Guggenheim of the truat wheu asked regarding It said: "We never have asked the railroads for rebates." That waa hla answer, although there had not been assertion ' that rebate ere asked or given. The claim hud been that diversion of traffin waa tlv club used by the Guggenhelms to force the roans to accede to ineir aemanus. A case parallel to the foregoing comes to my notice nere in jnica.go, and these facts have been known to me aa they developed for aeveral years. A rhlcaso man who had consider able wealth secured legal possession of the patents on a process ior ine manu facture of a lubricant of which water would be the chief constituent. Scientists always have known tnm water Is the Ideal lubricant. The dif ficulty has been to admix It with some thing which would give It Immobility enough to enable It to be used on bear ings on which It waa not possible to keep the water running In a stream. This problem having been solved, tno Chicago man prepared to manufacture the water liiDricani, -ni ereciea a iac tory. Investing about $50,000. lie produced a small supply, ana ar ranged for exhaustive tests Dy nair a dozen railroads running Into this city. Every general superintendent made an official report saying that tho lubri cant absolutely solved the difficulties, and that It would abolish oil if adopt ed, thus effecting a saving of tin major part of the expense of lubrica tion. XMrerte rrelg-ht. Standard Oil agents saw the railroad men. said If this man s lubricant were used by those roads. Standard OH woul rllvert freleht enough to make It expen slve for the roads. The result was that the roads decided, against their desire. that they could not arrorrt to Duy that lubricant, and must continue to buy from Standard Oil. Today thst Chicago man Is ruined, and Standard Oil sells as before the most of the lubricant used In the coun try. Precisely as Standard Oil used the threat of freight diversion to ruin that Chlcaeo maker of a lubricant, so the Gugpenhelm smelter trust has used the threat of freight diversion against rail roads to compel them to permit the trust traffic managor to have the right to determine when Independent miners shall be given facilities needed for ship ment of their ores. Rebates are not necessary. Bullying accomplishes the desired end; and thl statement was given to me by many western miners when the subject was submitted to them last winter by me. at their mother's knee. This had a power In it that changed them from weak, delicate boys Into strong, rooust Doys. It has the same power to-day.

If the entire po litical preaaure of Australia la suffi cient, the treaty binding England and Japan will not survive. Political Aus tralla ia determined to break the alli ance, aa the nrat step to create a white man a Pacinc ocean. Desiring not to em barrass England, the Australian offl clals are not giving any official voice to the sentiment but It Is the belief of carerul observers here that the treaty pannot last more than a few years. The feelings manifested during the visit of the American fleet here and a series qf Inspired articles during-the past week In the press throughout the commonwealth have aroused Interest In this subject anew In diplomatic circles. In an Interview today a man who Is recognized as one of the moulders of Australia's destiny, a man In high of ficial position, who prefers to have his name not mentioned, gave the following explanation of the situation: The defensive and offensive alliance between England and Japan affects In reality only Manchuria and India, and Is directed entirely against Russia. Eng land Is committed to assist Japan against the Invasion of Manchuria, and japan has agreed to al-d Britain in re pelling an Invasion of India. The only possible Invasion of either country Is Russia. "The alliance has been received with an outburst of popular disapproval In Australia, where tno people are more anti-Aslatle than on the Pacific coast. We have drastic Asiatic exclusion laws and a tariff, practically cutting off Japan and China from competing with our home industries. This is where the clash will originate. "Soon Korea and Manchuria, which have been exploited for the benefit of the Japanese manufacturers, will have been exhausted and Japan will seek a market In Australia. "We will deny commercial entrance to Japan and she will appeal to England for coercive assistance. "England will not dare to attempt coercion and Japan will retaliate throuKh a boycott or a tnrlff ngalnst Biitisn goods, and this will result in a rupture. "Tho Enarlish statesmen expect a rup ture before the expiration of the present treaty, and we think a break Is In evitable within a few years." , WIRELESS TALK fl HONOLULU Hunt Club Chocolates.

The above waa the first official mes sage flashed across Pacific waters In the early hours of yesterday morning from the new station of the Hawaiian Wirelcus company at Kuhuku Point, near Honolulu, island of Oahu, to Rus sian Hill, San Francisco, a distance of 2,100 miles. Then Arthur A. Isabel, the operator at Kuhuku, talked almost three hours with Lawrence Ma'arin. the operator at Russian Hill, an'd a new mark In , wireless telegraphy was set. 1 The operator here heard the whir of j the Instrument distinctly, and Isabel declared that he had cly half power i on. The station at Kuhuku Point was not set up until late Saturday night, and Operator Isabel was anxious to get In communication with the mainland at once. Malarln was astonished when he heard "Aloha" sounded several times on his instrument. He thought at first it was some station on the coast, and paid n attention to the message, but then It came again, and this time It came "Ph-Ph-Hu-Hu." "Hu" Is the signature of the lsiana station and f h is Ban Fran ctsco's "call." Malarln was astonished to hear the Island calling, and hastened to answer. Then came the first intel ligent message across the waters, the greetings of Governor Freer of Hawaii to the people or the Pacific coast . through the United Press association. I After that. Isabel and Malarln talked nearly three hours. Isabel said he heard i the steamer Victoria. In Bering sea, calling the cruiser Colorado. The Ha- i walHtn operator talked to several coast stations, and waa enthusiastic about hla success. He said he would be at watch i every night for messages.
