He was a Blue, Hussar in the war of 1870.71, and the Emperor, on bidding hini adieu, said "As soon as your Blue Hussars, I shall greet them from you," and handed him his photograph, on which he had written, "Im memory of Gethsemane." During his stay at Jerusalem, Prince Henry of Prussia gave him his photograph, with the in

PITTSBURG, May 8th.- Andrew Carnegie's retirement from the steel business has aroused considerable interst here

in his old home, but to many his decision has caused no surprise. Carnegie viewed with uneasiness the gradual incorporation of the various iron and steel industries into trusts, and anticipated the time when his company, in self defence, must follow in the same line.

Mr. Carnegie believes that trusts will yet lead to a political revolution, and he is said not to like them. The nearest approach to was only a temporary agreement as to prices one he was ever in, the famous steel rall pool, between business competitors. Several weeks ago Carnegle toferred somewhat sarcastically to the modem industrial combination, with its trappings of preferred and common stock and bonds, and said he preferred the "old fashioned way" of selling iron and steel

It is well known the famous ironmaster is an anti-Imperialist, and thinks the coming pre sidential campaign will be fought with the anti- stockholder in the Carnegie Company, and that expansion people on the same side. As chief company a member of the trust monster, he would occupy the illogical position in the anti trust, anti-expansion party. By selling out his Interest he will be able to devote. bis time, at- tention and money to his endeavour to bring about the success of the anti-expansion pro- paganda, geacon the
