West Indian ami Honduras bananas delivered In New Orleans do not cost the trust more thun 25 cents per bunch. The rate tn San Francisco and other American cities is from 33.50 to S3 to dealers. The freight to this city does not exceed 1300 per carload, on which the trust gets a 35 per cent rebate. Any competitor is. however, charged the full rate. Moreover, the shipment of the trust is rushed through, so as to overtake that of the rival on the way. or reach Its destination simultaneously. The trust has systematised the business so that a confidential employe In the service of a rival starling In the business Is paid a higher monthly wage than he gets from hie legitimate employer to notify It surreptitiously of every shipment made. A message to to the effect that We ship a carload today for Ban Francisco" results In the prompt dispatch by the trust of a sufficient number of carloads to follow It to swamp the market and rut prices below cost and thus nip competition tn, the bud. The marvel of it all Is that this banana monopoly has grown out of nothing, for the men who control It hadn't a dollar when they organized It. 8HORT TERM MARRIAGES. Of all the Quixotic theories for remedying the evlla" of matrimony, that of George Meredith, the English novelist. Is perhaps the most amusing. His Idea is that marriage, like any other contract, should be far a certain specified time, the contract, upon its expiration, to be extended nt the option of the Interested parties. "Certainly." he rays, one day the present conditions of mH rriage will be changed. Marriage will be allowed for a certain period, say ten years, or well, I do not want to specify any particular time. The state will see that sufficient money is put by during that time to provide for and educate the children. Perhaps the state will'take charge of this fond. One is tempted at first, on reading Mr. Meredith's ridiculous suggestion to marshal the many arguments easily within reach and hurt them at his learned head, says Robert Webster Jones In the February. Housekeeper. Apart from the sentimental considerations. there are many practical, matter-of-fact reasons why Mr. Meredith's Idea cannot be taken seriously. Most parent still desire to have something to ray regarding the bringing up of their children, and wise folk are pretty well agreed that the breaking up of the family means disaster to the nation. But there fs a better answsr to Mr. Meredith than all this. It Is to be found in the large and Increasing number of harpy marriages all about us. There Is no need to attack the man of straw which Mr. Meredith lias set up. There Ik no "handicap" of marriage. The blame for unhappy marriages is to be laid upon the persons themselves, not upon marriage Itself. So many persons are voyaging pleasantly and happily upon the sea of matrimony, that it would be the height of absurdity to prevent their ships from sailing or to limit the length of their voyages Just because a few other persons have already become seasick. Let those who are liable to such Indisposition stay at home. For those who believe that marriage fs a handicap" there is a simple course of action: Rtay single.

In every distributing center In this country It has a resident agent, to whom it dictates by telegraph every Monday morning the market quotation fur the week. It hag successfully stifled competition everywhere by systematic discrimination. For example, if a rival company is organised and ships a carload of bananas to San Francisco, It send two or three carloads a?ter It Immediately to the same destination, and It instructs Its agent here to cut the rate below cost, which compels the rival to sell at a loss. The same thing is done wherever a rival ships. It meets Hawaiian competition the same way. That policy soon drives the competitor out of business, unless possessed of unlimited capital, when the trust finds It cheaper to buy out the rival at the Utahns. "The Octoroon." Lyceum Vaudeville.
