MENACE GOVERNMENT Industries Should Be Controlicd By Individuals RUSSELL SAGE'S PREDICTION IF THE CREATION OF COM- BINES CONTINUES. If Morgan's Prophecy of Gigantic Trusts is Fulfilled People Will Revolt and Unprecedented Disaster Will Follow. ° New York, Aug. 2h=Russell, Sage, in an interview, referred to a publish- ed statement quoting J. Pierpont Morgan as saying that the era of great trusts had just begun and that more gigantic corporations are: stored in the near future; some of which may ovérshadow the steel trust. Mr. Sage said : y Whether Mr. Morgan not, combinations of said that or all industries RUSSELL SAGE. are a menace to true government. Not only but they are the oppres sors of the people." "What will be the result of such gn era?" asked a reporter. ; "In such. an event the American people will revolt against them, and there will he financial ruin" the like of which this country has never seen, or any other." It was suggested to Mr. Sage that there was a general opinion that com- binations at cértain times were good things for the country. "Yes," Mn Sage replied, "when several industrits are starting out in business it is well for individuals to combine for mutual protéction until the business is firmly established. When the business is so establishea. the combination should be disrupted and conducted on individual lines. Then if one individual became embar- rassed it would not mean the wreck- ing of the industry. "I believe. it is best to have such in- dustries divided among several indi- viauals than combined into one great combination, the embarrassment of which. would mean the ruin of all." j0, CANADA AND FRANCE.

Morri- son, of Boston, for alleged breach of promise of marriage. Cameron was taken to the sheriff's office and gent for Lawyer Norman M. Nye, of 23 Court street.
