Mamhors of thn club gathered n> the cluto*hou»# la North Meridian street at noon to receive the fia*. The reception parlors were crowded, and many stood in the halls. President Union Introduced Mr. Overstreet, who said that he had long wanted to present the Marion Club with some token of hi« esteem and appreciation. He said that as a member of the Fifty-fifth Congress he had noticed the flag which It was his privilege to present to the club to-day adorning the flag-«taff above the House of Representatlvee. He had watched that emblem of liberty and prosperity during the day* just before war was declared. During the late conflict whenever Important measures were being considered in Congress, he had thought of that flag. Its money value was slight, and In that sense it did not repre-, sent his feeling toward the club, but in the sens* of Americanism, as the emblem of ail for which this country stood. Us value could not be appreciated. The flag, he said, represented a new epoch in the history of the world. It had Waved Above one of the representative bodies of the American people, and at a time when Americanism was shown ae at no other time in the history of the country. It stood for freedom and liberty, a broad spirit which had electrified the world and represented the best there was on this earth. He said that he was proud to present the flag to the dub. He thought the club represented the best public spirit of the city, and its members stood for the broadest principles in this country.
Mr. Griffiths Replies.
John L. Griffiths received the flag on behulf of the diffi. Mr. GrifflthB said that tha club waa proud of the honor, and proud of the man who had secured such an honor for the club. He said the flag represmted a principle whkh had secured for America the honor and respect of the whole world. The same emblem bad waved in the revolutionary war. the war of isia, the Mexican war, the civil v.ur, end under Its colors men had gone to their death, happy in the thought that they were right. The American of today, he said, was even more patriotic than ever before. The spirit of American liberty and tolerance was growing. The Spanish war was not cm of conauest. Humanity had prompted it, and the Ohselfishness of the American people in ft witting 'for the sake 'of others had brought Its reward In the fact that Amer-
kun ijrtnololw rvArc right
He said that the American volunteer soldier fought from conviction, and not from coercion. He charged up the hill at San Juan, or served the guns In Dewey’s fleet, not because he had to, but because he believed that the bahner under which he fought stood for right. The volunteer Soldiers of this country had furnished a spectacle for the whole world. Patftnt, brave and loyal, from the commanding officer down to the lowest private. they had done their duty. Mr. Griffiths saw that America would not rest content until Its work In the Philippines was done and a stable government es-,
tub'ished.
President Bryson received the flag, and the members of the club went to the front of the chib-house, where they waited until the flag was raised above the building. Then, with three rousing

The Object of an Oysranlaatlon
Formed at St. Loiule.
New York, April 11.—A special from St. Louie to the World says: War is to be waged on the trusts in a] business-like manner, independent of politics. The AntiTrust League has been farmed in 8t. Louis for the purpose of boycotting all goods made by the big trade combines and induolng the consumers to purchase goods made by Independent manufacturers. It is the opinion of the promoters that the McKinley administration can not or will not do anything to hamper the growth of the trusts, and that their In fiuences must be met in an effectual and
business-like manner.
Headquarters have beeh established and officers chosen. H. A. i Thompson is president and Dr. James McClure treasurer. The league claims a iclty membership of 15,000 and a country membership of 35,000, and hopes to accomplish the destruction of all trusts In a few years. President Thompson says that the plan Is to pay every member a certain per cent, discount If he trades Ih those goods which are not manufactured by the trusts. Coupons will be issued to raer chants who deal in such gooos. The purchaser is to be given a coupon with each article bought, and these wljl be redeemed
at headquarters.
The object is to make it ia mutual organization for the protection of the purchaser and the Independent imerchant and manufacturer. In that manner It is hoped to create a demand for anti-trust goods, and thus defeat the great tfade combinations and nullify their effort to raise prices to exorbitant figures; Any person may become a member by forwarding his application to the league headquarters. No initiation fee will be charged and dues
will be dispensed with.
