,THE : COLUMBIAN, t BLOOMSBURG,' PA. TAE SUGAR DISTEIBJTION COM BINE. With tlie possible exception of its illustrated papiphlct giving export li. counts on protected manufactures, and published some years sinrc, the pamphlet on the Sugar Distribution Combine by Hon. John I)e Witt Warner, just issued by the Reform Club, is ne'haps the most interesting of its wide known series. Treating as it docs of a subject as to which vague intimationji have for years been' made on every hand, it presents the summarized results of an investigation reaching every corner of the United States and based upon what is evidently an enormous collec tion of original documents including accounts, correspondence, minutes and proceedings of local organizations which lay open to view the workings of the Sugar Trust, from its very in ception, along the lines in which it most directly affects the American people. The secret history is given of a complete system of wholesale Grocers' Associations, each subsidiary to the Sugar Trust and paid by it a generous commission on condition of their keep ing the price of sugars up to the point dictated by the Trust ; while the copies of correspondence and ac counts furnished leave nothing to be desired in the way of accurate detail. The author's conclusion is perhaps the best summary of the details given: " With the Spreckels in control of Hawii, and the Havemeyers extend ing their plantations in Cuba, the trust dictates to every branch of su gar production and distribution in the United States, taking under its wing every one conce rned excepting those who consume sugar. From its office, at 117 Wall Street, cable mes sages fly daily to its agents in Cuba, fixing the price of raw sugars there ; to San rranc.isco announcing " Cuban parity," at which arriving Hawaiian sugars are to be valued j to Louisiana, telling her planters what in view of Cuban and Hawaiian prices the trust condescends to offer for American sugar : and to iis repre sentanves all over the world, giving the limit based on Cuban anty at which they can pick up Austrian, Javan, Philippine, Brazilian and other sugars, when these are tem porarily depressed in price. In an adjoining room the Quotations at or above which the subservient dealers throughout the country are permitted to sell sugars, are daily settled, and through the four great sugar brokers who staid nearest the throne these are passed to the forty others who await the Sugar Trust's nod at New York and telegraphed to the waiting hundreds in other cities of the land. These in turn so promptly notify their patrons, the thousands of whole sale grocers of the country, that be fore their doors are opened all dan ger of any purchaser getting his sugar below trust prices is over for the day. By discount from his bill or periodical remittance, as the case may be, each faithful wholesaler is prompt ly and liberally paid for his loyalty ; and whenever, in the crisis of legisla tion, he hears the bugle call of the Trust, he instantly steps into line, ready to bombard his Congressman with telegrams or fight him with bal lots at short range until the Sugar trust cause is triumphant. Such is the grandest trade organiza tion the world has ever seen. The Sugar Trust dictates the tri bute that shall be rendered it by the American people. The wholesale grocers are reward ed by whatever of largess the Trust thinks necessary to insure their loyalty. And the public? 'The public e damned' and it is by and through its high protective laws.

Toledo, O., Doc. a 4 Toledo is shaken to its t:entre by a breach of promise suit, the damages bt-ing placed at $75,000, brought by Miss Lucy M. Umber, against Ros.veh E. Messenger. She aliened the engage ment of marriage was made on Janu ary 5, 1893. The plaintiff is a handsome young lady of twenty-two and of excellent family. Mr. Messenger was recently appointed deputy county treasurer, and by the death of Calvin Bronson, his grandfather, he recently became heir to $100,000 of valuable real estate in the business section of the city. This event occurre.l since his engagement, and it is hinted his alter ed worldly prospects led to the estrangement. The Postinastor General's Annual Re port, By this report it will be seen that our railroads are paid over twenty five and a half million dollars year for carrying the mails simply, their clerk hire being paid by the government and costing Uncle Sam nearly seven million dollars more, making these two items of expense foot up to $32, 539,762.05. Then the railway postal car service costs nearly three million dollars, besides something over a million dollars for mail messenger service. For " special facilities on railroad?," we find an additional charge of $151,540.71, or a grand total of $36,852,232.65 last year to railroads for carrying the mail. The continental or star-route ser vice throughout the whole United States comes considerably cheaper, as it cost the government only $5,846, 855 65 last year, it being a little more than one seventh of the amount paid railroads. For space sufficient to take our mail abroad on boats the govern ment paid last year the snug little sum of $r, 250,154.47. The rate al lowed per mile for ocean transporta tion, or the difference between rail road and wagon carriage would make mighty interesting reading to star routers ; but we fail to find record of such trilling matters in the book. There is no doubt that Uncle Sam could do this work much cheaper himself, if he wanted to ; but he don't want to, don't you see ? The same might be said of his telegraph ex penses, &c. Murderous Burglary. We have thought for sometime in the face of law and contrary opinion held by, very good and sympathetic people, that the professional burglar is not a whit better than a murderer. We cite another of many like cases going to prove that the cornered bur glar is a deliberate murderer, the only difference being in the length of time that he deliberates about it. If mur der is not the prime incentive it is conditional and secondary in his mind. We think he ..should never have the second chance at burglary for fear of murder : Cleveland, Ohio, December 12. Mr. William II. Price, a prominent man, and a member of the firm of Chandler & Price, residing at 124 Hawthorne avenue, was murdered by burglars early this morning. The burglars were discovered In the house by Mr. Price, who was aroused by the noise. He proceeded to investigate, and when they found themselves discovered one of them drew a revolver aud shot Mr. Price, the shot taking effect in the breast. Mr. Price lived only a few minutes after receiving the wound. The bur glars immediately made good tl.eir escape. The entire detective force is at work on the case, but as yet they have not been captured. k Blow at Ohurch Pairs. The church fair got a sorry blow at the hands of the Union county, New Jersey, Grand Jury. The jury urged that it is a prevalent evil among churches, clubs and other organiza tions to raise money by means which the law had adjudged to be a lottery, especially at election times. Candi dates are importuned to take chances by not only officials of organizations, but by women and children. The jurorsfelt that some of the persons Hm-aue in the nractice innocently, while others know it to be wrong, but rely on the old excuse that a cnanta 1,1.. ,n,i i a.irK unlawful means. The jury says that one church in Elizabeth has announced a fair at which 500 worth of stock is to be rafllled. '1 he clergymen and olhcers ot the associa tion were warned and their attention called to the inconsistency of any crusade against race track gambling if, under cloak of religion, they per mined an equally unlawful practice.

IntltanapoUt Juurnal. It is now predicted by educated Chinamen who are safely located in the land of the free that there will be no cessation of hostilities between Japan and China until China shall have bten completely vanquished either this Winter or next Spring. Moral suasion being a mere force, proving for centuries a great waste of time and money in dealing with heathendom, the terrors of war alone, reaching the very heart of heathen dom, can ever effect the evolution contemplated in the Lord's Prayer. Hence the war and continued success of little Japan against big China. The ways of Providence are, indeed mys terious and miraculous, yet inevitable in peace or war. The case in point only illustrates that the weaker agency often becomes the stronger in God's providence. The price-fighters seem anxious to put a stop to their biutal business by killing one another off. Well, their plan has its merits. New York Tribune.
