Havemeyer, President of the Trust, made to the committee of the New York Legislature that is now investigating the several Trusts of that state. The report of the matter is as follows: “You control now the product and price of refined sugar in the United States 7" said Chairman Lexow. “We undoubtedly do,” replied Mr. Havemeyer. “And you do it by reason of the con- solidation 7” “We do it simply from the fact that we own property that can refine much sugar.” Mr. Havemeyer then said: “And it may as well be recorded now that, when we controlled 9 per cent. of the sugar market of the United States, the Bupreme Court decided it was perfect ly legal for us to do so.” The President of the Sugar Trust is no doubt quite correct in assuming that, under the present so-called Anti- Trust law of Congress, which was evi- dently made to protect, not to destroy, these offensive combinations in straint of competition in trade, his company is acting within its legal rights. His company probably has the legal right to control the product and fix the price of refined sugar, but That was both a cynical and a BO in taking that view of the case, the law itself is wrong; the Anti-Trust law, in fact, appears to put no actual restraint upon the sordid and rapa. cious Trusts or combinations, which, by largely monopolizing and arbitrari- | ly restricting production, put what | the actual necessaries of life. One of these necessaries is refined by not oply the Anti-Trust law, but | by the tarifi, which puts a virtually duet. The Bugar Trust can be readily shorn of its power to thus prey upon the people by putting all refined su- gars on the free lists. Any duty which upholds a single one of these aggress ive combinations which operate in dis traint of wholesome competition in trade, to the distress of the country, should be wholly removed. If refined sugars were put upon the free list the Sugar Trust would collapse under the weight of the unrestricted competition which would follow.—~Philadelphia Hie schools.
