An In dtctment imminent for Hi,

INDIANAPOLIS, December 5.-Federal
Building was crowded to-day with wit
nesses summoned to appear before the
Federal Grand Jury now in session. All
interest centers upon the prosecution OF

opinion is openly expressed about the
courthouse that an indictment will GER

or advice to others to violate

many that the jury will find bill

GA PRIVATE AFFAIR"
Arguments I'm the Sugar Trust
Prosecution Com imued.

Prosecution Continued.
New York, December 5-The case of
the people against the North River Sugar
Refining Company was continued this
morning. James G. Carter, of counsel
for defendant, continued his arguments.
He said the combination of the sugar re-
tining companies WAS not intended as q
monopoly for the manufacture OF sugar,
nor was it for the purpose of increasing
the price of sugar. Sugar, he said, was
a commodity limited only by inability to
manufacture. The raw material is un-
limited in supply, and all that is re-
quired for its manufacture is capital and
labor. There are other commodities
that are by nature restricted in supply,
and com bipation to control such for the
purpose of increasing their value might
come under the charge OF violation of
the law. Sugar is not necessity of life,
although being SO much used by the
people all over the globe it might be
nearly so considered.
"The North River Sugar Refining Com
pany," Carter continued, "was not in
stituted for the benefit of the people, but
exclusively for the benefit of those whose
capital is invested in it. The object of
all business was given. If men can con-
troll the coal fields OF Pennsylvania they
can control the price of coal by limiting
the production"
The definition OF 'fa monopolist," ac-
cording to Carter, is lone to whom the
exclusive right to sell or buy certain
commodity is gain" AS to sugar
which may be brought to us in
avalanches, if the trouble to extract it be
taken, the term monopoly cannot in any
degree be appropriately applied.
Take the Standard Oil Trust" con-
tinued Carter. "When it was first
organized, oil was sold by the gallon for
a certain number of dollars. How Is it
to-day? A gallon of petroleum can be
purchased by the consumer at the cost of
six cents, and ) ct if there was combi-
nation 80 vast and well organized, it
could have increased the price of the
commodity. Such a combination is the
Standard Oil Company"
The arguments were concluded and
Judge Barrett gave counsel until the 22d
instant to submit their briefs, and he re-
served his decision.

Major VIM. M. Arms, a prominent
architect and builder of this city, died at
his residence in the Makara Hotel, 22l
South Main street, at o'clock yesterday
morning. Major Arms was a native of
Troy, New York, but lately from New

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
CHICAGO, December 5.-Public Interest
was revived in the Smell murder case to-
day by the publication in an evening pa
per of a statement alleged TO have been
made by A. j. Stone, son-in-law OF the
murdered millionaire, in which he said
the supposed murderer had been cap
tured. Mr.. Stone said to an Associated
Press reporter this evening that what he
did say was as follows:
II have received a telegram from a
man who claims to have arrested w. B,
Tascott; that he has him in his posses
sion now and wished to know when |
could send to identify him. / answered
at once: How do you know it is Tas-
cott?' In answer l received message
saying the prisoner answered all the de-
scriptions and that the man would send
a photograph Monday. tt at photograph
is what am now waiting for"
MIR. Stone preferred not to say at what
point in the country the prisoner was
being held.
An announcement was made by Mr..
Stone this evening that has lent addi-
tional interest to the celebrated case.
This was that the widow, Mrs. Henrietta
Smell, has increased the amount of the
reward offered from $4,000 to $4,000,
making it the largest amount ever offered
for the capture OF any human being i'll
the world. This $4,000 reward will be
paid by Mrs. Smell through the Chicago
Police Department. The offer holds good
for four months from this date. All sus-
poets arrested must be photographed, ,and
the likeness be sent at once to either Mr..
Stone or George w. Hubbard, Superin-
tendent of the Chicago Police Depart
ment. No detectives will be sent as here
tofore until strong marks OF identi fcAtion
are presented.

Expelled for Treachery.

New York, December 5.-At a meet
ing of County Committee of Republi-
cans tonight, the Republican organiza-
tion of Eighty-eighth Assembly District,
OF which John J. O'Bsien is the central
figure, was thrown out OF the Republican
party for treachery in the last campaign
to the county ticket. Before O'Brien
assumed control in the district it had
been a Democratic stronghold, but has
since shown a Republican majority at
each Presidential election.

One thing. however, is certain. The
next President knows how to hold his
tongue. He held it while he was Sem
ator. His remarks during six years
would hardly fill couple of pages Of the
Congressional Record. He held his
tongue during the canvass, also. He ut
tered good many words in speeches to
visiting delegations and admirinp SUD-
porters, but he really said nothing from
the day Of his nomination to the dav of
his election.-[New York Sun, Ind.
