Wholesalers All Over the Country Only Want a Rebate. THEY REALLY AIDED THE COMBINE. Hott the American Kenning Company Is to Control the Market. EROAD TERMS OP THE CAPITULATION Contrary to the reports fromlhe East that the Sugar Trust is weakening, absolute proof was found in Pittsburg yesterday that ali the wholesale and importing grocers of the county are bowing their heads to the great corporation and are asking to be taken care of. The movempnt was started in Philadelphia, and now the big grocers all over the country are hustling to get in out of the wet. The grocers recognize that the Sugar Trust, known as the American Sugar Kenning Company, of New York, controls the market and they now bow in submission. The trust is to hare absolute power in firing the price of sugar and can change it whenever its officers desire. The plan of submission is in the shape of a petition from each of the wholesale grocers" associations of the country, pray ing that the American Sugar Refining Com pany establish a fised price for thi article of food, and allow every SO days o- three months a rebate to the wholesale dealers which will give them at least a fair margin of profit The petition circulated here reads as follows: Grocers Eotv In SnbmIIon to the Trnst. To tlii- American Sugar Beaulng Company, New Yo-k: Gr:.Tii:inr-fl"e. the undersigned, whole sale Ri-ocers of Tittsburj: and Allegheny, do respectfully appeal to you for such change on your term of sale as shall secure to the wholesale trado a protlt on sn-r.ir at least sufficient to cover the cost of distribution and collection. This petition is signed by all the whole rale grccers in the two cities, with two ex ceptions, and they will affix their signa tures later. The petition, with the names attached, was sent to the "Wholesale Gro cers' Association of Philadelphia last night by Secretary Joseph Hunter, of the Pitts burg "Wholesale Grocers' Association. Sim ilar petitions from all the other principal cities are being sent to Philadelphia, where a committee will be appointed to await on the officers of the trust about Saturday in New York and lay before them the wail of the sugar venders. The meetings in Philadelphia on this sub ject have been held behind closed doors and it was reported there that the Trust had made overture? to them, but the reverse is the truth of the affair. Secretary Joseph Hun ter, of the "Wholesale Grocers' Association, speaking of the move yesterday said: The Trout "Will rix the Ppiun. "The wholesale grocers are forced to come to the Sugar Trust. Sugar is now selling for J4 48 per 100 pounds to the wholesalers, and they have to sell it now for $4 SO, giv ing a gross profit of 2 centa on 100 pound;, and after counting up tho ,cut of distribu tion and collection the grocers just lose of a cent on every pound the v hardie. Our aim now is to be able to handle sugar at a. proht ot at least Jj ot a cent a pound. IVc had some show until the Philadelphia refineries wer;. merged into the trust. "When Claus Spreckels, the Frank lin and another refinery went into the trust it shuts off everything but the output of one refinery in Boston. All we want is to sell sugar at a moderate profit, "The movement is being worked from Phil adelphia and I think it will be successful. The idea is to alio it the trust to put a fixed price on sugar but ghe a rebate of about i to of a cent per pound. Then we would like to have a fixed price of ?4.75 a hundred now with the above rebate to be paid back to the wholesaler every 30 or 90 days. No one is to be allow ed to sell below the price fixed bv the trust on penalty of forfeiting his rebates, and anvoue who does no: sign these petitions will not be allowed to participate in the re bates. The retailer?, however, are allowed to get as much over the trust price as they can. Grocers Have Been -Aiding the Trnst. ""Wo made a somewhat similar petition several years ago. The President of the trust said he would accept such a propo sition if the retailers would assist the trnst to take in three-nuartcrs of the refineries of tiie county. This has been accomplished. There is only one refinery now left on the outside. I firmly believe the trust will be a good thing provided this arrangement is effected, because it will allow everybody to make a profit, and will establish a fixed price." The only thing now worrying the trust is the bill to take the tariff off refined sugar. From the most accurate data obtainable it is learned that since the first intimations were made that a bill looking to the repeal of the tariff on refined sugar would be taken before Congress the stock of the American Sugar Eefining Companv has experienced a shrinkage of nearly 59,000,000. The present price of raw sugar, 96 cen trifugal test, 'i cents a pound; the present price of refined granulated sugar, i cents a pound, which "makes a difference of cents a pound. The cost of refining sugar is not over cent a pound, which makes a net profit a pound on refined sugar of cent, giving a net profit per barrel of 52 03'. The net profit on 12,G00jO0O, which is the minimum annual production is 525, .193,000. "With the tariff off refined sugar the net profit on the same amount would be 510,237,500. The actual value of Sugar Trust properties is abont 535,000.000, which allows a rate of profit on actual valuation of 73.08 per cent. EXPLOSION IH A MILL.

Washington JTot Eeadj Tet to Compete With Pittshnrp Iron. NEWS OP THE WORLD OP IAB0R To-day the strike committee of the Build ers' Exchange and the committee from the Union Bricklayers will have another conference. It is not at all proba ble that the strike will be settled. Yesterday the strikers' committee had a meeting. The whole ground was gone over. It was decided to vest the committee with the entire power of settling the difficulty, and the union gave the committee its ulti matum. The Master Bricklayers also held a meet ing yesterday. It, too, decided to give the committee which is to go into the confer ence full power to act. Heretofore the committee has been directed in its actions by the master bricklayers. It was found that the matter would never be settled if the power was not centralized. Insist Vp-n n 84 BasK Last night it was learned from the strikers that they did not expect the conference to-day would result in a settlement. They have positive proof that three out of the five members on the committee from the Master Bricklayers have decided on the course they will follow in the conference. It is said they have solemnly Wedded themselves to settle on no otho- but u SI lai. This will ngain block a settlement, as it is not at all probable tho strikers will give in. Ttiev want $4 60. Tho strikers ara so much impressed with the opinion that tho men who compose the opposition's committro aro biased that they will ask for aiiothi'r plan of bringing about the end of the strike. They think the com mittee is carrying back lalso reports to the Builders' Exchange, and if t'ie conference to-day does not settle the trouble, the Ex" chansrewill bo asked to listen to a lepre sentalive fiom tho strikers.

Although it was reported that the amendment would havo a clause bridg ing over labor trouble, such was not the case, nnd the cause of labor did not figure in the least particular in the discussion yesterday. NOW IN THE MINE BUSINESS. Mr. Halnsworth Conies Back from Seattle to See His Former Home Not Sorry He Went TVest Interested In a Lead and Silver Mine. "William Hainsworth, formerly of the Pittsburg Steel Casting Company, reached the city from the West yesterday. He is at the Anderson. Three years ago Mr. Hains worth left here, and located In Soattle. He hasn't been in Tittsburg since, and he was glad to get back to see his old friends. He built a foundry and machine shop at Ballard, a town about five mile from Seattle. The land valued at $40,000 was donated, and at the earnest solic itation of a number of people ho built the plant. In time it was discovered that with p'g Iron costing them $33 per ton thev couldn't compete with Chicago and Pitts burg, and 93 per cent or the business in Seattle was gobbled by tho Eastern people. Then the plant was. closed, but the town continued to grow and wax fat. The inhabitants built saw mills, shingle factories and established lumber yards. In this business with immense timber tracks at their backs, the producers reigned supreme. Tho town now has 2,500 inhabitants, where threo years ago there wasn't a house. "The time is coming, however," continued Mr. Hainsworth, "when Washington will be the greatest iron and steel center in the wot Id. The state abounds in gold, sliver, iron, lead and coal. Its mineral wealth Is wonderful, and all it lacks is development. The iron men will thrive out there under ireo trade or piotection. They havo the ocean near them and can compete with England on .foreign rates, and toward the East are the continental railroads. I do not regret that I went West. The men who built the town of Ballard cleared $1,COO,000. Just now the peoplo In tho far West have leached their limit. Their money has played out andthevaro looking to Eistern capital to help them. They have built first-class cities and towns, but they need factories and manufactories to support them. Thee w ill come In com so of time. Washington is a ereat conntrv for young men. Its possibilities are enormous. At present the real estate boom has flat tened our, and it is-a good thing for the cities." Mr. Hainsworth is interested in the Boston mi'ie, located in the Stag!-- Vallev, north of Seattle, and to get Pittsburg capitalists in teiestedis what brings him here at this time. The mine produces lead and silver. He has with him some snecimens of the ore and ccveral samples of enke made In the Skagit Valley. When An drew Carnegie and H. C. Frick were in Seattle recently on their Western trip, they brought back with them some of the coke. Mr.Cawiegio remarked to the crowd of gentlemen who came to greet him that this was tho first time he hail seen Mr. Hainsworth with a clean face. The old gen tleman usually spends his time in tho mills, where it 1 impossible to maintain a white appearance. A general laugh lolloned this tally, which m appicciateu by everybody. The veinUn the mine is from 6 to 13 fnet wide, while the paystieuk ranges from 2 to 4 feet in taiefcnesa. According to tu assays the amount or silver in the oi e is S5 ounces to the ion and ,8 35 percent of lead. Mr. Hainsworth Is grcatlv pleased with the prospects. Stats Lns Annual Sleeting. The annual meeting of the State Line road was held In the Baltimore and Ohio depot building yesteiday. The present offi cers and dii ectors were re-elected. Thomas M. King is President.

It Is tho intention of tho company to build tho road some day, and connect the Baltimore and Ohio system with the railroads ot West Virginia. Tho right of way has besn secured lor several years. Ilsijor Washington tald they were grading the line at Fairchanco, but there is no prospect that the road will bo built this year. Might Do for Immigrants.

A Yonng Girl Arrested by Detective Mo Tighe, Has Lonfc Been Wanted. A young woman suspected of stealing an ostrich tip boa from a sleeping woman at the Baltimore and Ohio depot on Sunday, was arrested yesterday, and the prisoner turned out to be not only the thief who had committed that offense, but proved to be a girl the police havo been looking for for the past three months.

At Rochester the girl deserted her mother, and It was thought Joined a barn-storming companv that got to this city and broke. Then the police wero written to by the pircnti at Alton, and also by a sister who lives in St. Louis, who sent aphotogtaph here to lead to her detec tion. Tho prisoner denied her identity until shown tho picture, when she conletsed she was the much-looked-1'or petsou. Sue said sho had been in Wheeling until a week ago, when she came hero and took upa residence at 20 Third avenue. The boa she had was returned to Miss Thomas, from whom It was taken. Miss Fairbrother will likely bo held until her parents come for her. BOUND FOB HAEBISBURG. The Exodus of Democratic Delegates Will Take I'lacn This Morning.

Constable Bobert Hugbey Stricken Down' From Opiuin Poison LAUDANUM FOUND IN HIS POCKET. Picked Up Unconscious in Mr. -Martin's Back Yard, in Allegheny. THE CORONER WILL HOLD AN INQUEST Constable Eobert Hughey, of the Twelfth ward, Allegheny, died yesterday afternoon at the Allegheny General Hospital, from the effects of an overdose of laudanum, and everything points to suicide. Early on Sunday morning the Constable was found lying in the yard of Mr. Martin at the foot of the steps which lead to Nunnery hill. Wood was sent to the Mayor's office and the unconscious man was removed to the hospital department of the sta tion. Citv Physician Huzzard was sent for, and, after examining him, con cluded that he was suffering from the ef fects of some drug aud administered anti dotes. After working with the patient for some time, Dr. Huzzard succeeded in bring ing him around all right, and Hugley was able to talk and seemed to be perfectly ra tional. Went Oat and Got More Poison. Dr. Huzzard said lost night that he at first thought that the constable might have beri drugged for the purpose of robbery. He made a careful examination of him, but could find no marks of violence; besides he had some money on his person, also his watch and chain. The doctor examined bis clothing, and found in ono of his pookets a half ounce phial that was labeled poison, and which had contained laudanum. Con stable Hughey had so far recovered that a short time after lie was allowed to go.home with some fiiends.
