AFTER m D
Government Would Dissolve
Trust; files Bill,
NAMES HEAD OF MORMONS.
Havemoyer Executors Also Charged
With Participating In Gigantlo
Monopoly In Restraint of Tradu.
How Business Was Controlled.
New York. Nov. 29. United Stntra
Attorney Wise has filed the Ioiik ex
pected hill of complaint In the pov
crnnient's suit to dissolve the suptr
trust under the Sherman antitrust law.
In the suit, like that against the Stand
ard Oil, the povcrhnient asks the court
to declare that a coinhlnatlon and con
spiracy exists for the monopoly of the
supir business and to restrain the
American Sugar Itclintng company, the
National Sugar Hetlulng company and
the Western Sugar Itcllnlng company
from engaging In Interstate commerce
In sugar and to restrain any one from
voting on the stock of tho companies
named In the bill.
The hill was drawn by Mr. Wise un
der the direction of Attorney General
Wickershnm and names ns defendants
thirty sugar companies alleged to be
part of the trust, together with their
ofllcors, and also tho executors of the
will of II. O. Havemoyer, head of the
Ainerienn Sugar Refining company, un
der whose direction the alleged monop
oly was formed.
Among the individual defendants
Jianied nre Washington R. Thomas,
Charles R. Foster, former nsslstant sec
retary of the treasury, and elected
treasurer of the trust; John D. Sprock
et, Adolph R. Spreckels and John I).
Sproeki'ls Jr., and Joseph F. Smith of
Utah, head of the Mormon church.
The bill recites tho history of the
companies, beginning at the original
trut agreement of 18S7, when seven
teen of the twenty-three existing sugar
companies entered into a combination
under the name of the Sugar Refineries
company, controlling 00 per cent of the
industry. Within the next two years,
it is alleged, twelve of the refineries
then combined were closed up, and
the remainder were combined Into four
large refineries.
These consolidated refineries name
ly, the one in Williamsburg, the Stand
ard at Roston, tho Matthiessen at Jer
sey City and the Louisiana at New Or
leanswere taken over by tho Ameri
can Sugar Refining Company of New
Jen-oy, "since which time," says tho
synopsis of the bill given out by Mr.
AVi.se, "the company has uniformly pur
sued the policy of absorbing competi
tors whenever It could and when suc
cessful sometimes operating their re
fineries and In other cases closing them
down to prevent an Increase in the
amount of sugar produced."
In 1S02 the American controlled U8
per cent of all refined sugar in this
country, says the bill.
"From 1S!)2 to 1000." says Mr. Wise's
statement, "many other refineries
started up mid others tried to. Of
these a company in Raltlraore built a
refinery, but before it could operate
the American Sugar Refining company
bought Its capital stock and never al
lowed It to open."
The bill alleges that since 1000 Have
moyer and his family and the sugar
company have controlled the National
Sugar Refining company and restrained
competition with it and that the Na
tional company in turn has restrained
competition with the McCahan compa
ny. In addition to giving a summary of
the customs frauds and the rebate cases
as evidence of the means employed to
crush rivals the bill says:
"in order further to cripple competi
tors, destroy competition and strength
en the monopoly tho defendants, act
ing in combination, have long sought
unduly to control the avenues through
which sugar is distributed as a part of
interstate and foreign trade and com
merce. Ry using their great power
they have demanded that brokers and
other intermediaries should handle their
products unfairly and unlawfully, and
for a long time they wrongfully In
duced members of various wholesale
grocers' associations throughout the
country to purchase and handle their
sugars exclusively and to sell the same
at uniform prices without competition
among themselves and thereby have
greatly damnified their competitors,
other manufacturers and dealers, as
well us the public."
In order to acquire tho l)0'-t sugar
companies the American, the bill re
cites, sent out large quantities of sugar
to the middle west on which It obtain
ed rebates and free storage, then drop
ped the price below cost, and when
this had weakened these companies It
begun to acquire them. It Is alleged
that it purchased one-half of the com
mon stock of the American Reel Sugar
compuny and put It under contract not
to compete and exacted one-quarter of
a cent per pound for all sugar sold by
that company.

PLAN AN AIRSHIP LINE.
Melville Vaniman Has Been Asked to
Holp Promoters.
Atlantic City, N. J., Nov. 20.-Mel-vllle
Vaniman, chief engineer of the
Wcllman airship expedition, may su
perintend the construction of a big air
liner In the same hangar used in
launching tho balloon America on the
attempted flight to Europe. A Roston
syndicnte proposes to build a dirigible
capable of carrying twenty persons to
be used on regular schedule between
Roston, Now York, Philadelphia. Rnl
tlmoro and AVashington and hns in
vited Vnnliusin to assist tliem.
Charles J. Gliddcn of the Aerial
Navigation company has asked for
bids from balloon builders in Ger
many, France, America and England
for n 200,000 cubic foot capacity spe
cial balloon of n composition of cotton
and rubber. This. Is to be used by pi
lots of the Aero Club of New England
In an nttempt to cross the American
continent.
Should this trip be successful work
will be started immediately on tho
monster dirigible nt the Wellman-A'an-iman
hangar at the Inlet. A gas plant
and other equipment used in construct
ing tho dirigible America nre intact.
DID PREACHER DIE FIRST?
If So, Mother of Murderer Profits by
Mrs. Armstrong's Will.
Trenton, N. J., Nov. 20. John Sears,
the half blood negro who killed the
Rev. Amzl L. Armstrong and his wife
last Wednesday, was not mentioned In
the will of either of his victims. Rev.
Mr. Armstrong mentioned neither
Sears nor his mother In his will, but
the will of Mrs. Armstrong provided
that Rachel Sears, the mother of the
murderer, should bo provided with a
home and clothing during her life.
The old negress had worked in tho
family of Mrs. Armstrong thirty-three
years.
Tho question as to which will shull
be given precedence will require a ju
dicial determination as to whether the
Rev. Mr. Armstrong or his wife died
first.
With the evidence now at hand It
appears probable that the decision will
bo that the Rev. Mr. Armstrong per
ished first and that his wife survived
him by a few moments. This would
entitle the Sears woman to a home for
life.

Is Your Appetite
Always Good?
Why can't you eat as you used to ? Sim
ply because your liver doesn't do its wotlc
properly. Its business is la take bile out
of the blood, which acts as Nature's
cathartic, but your liver is sluggish and the
bile accumulates too fast, and you feel
Worn out, tired and lifeless, and each suc
