New YORK, June 16.-Three men,
who formed sugar trust in a rathei
unique way, and who have been making
small fortune for the past three years,
have come to grief and are now prison.
ers at headquarters. They are George
81. Coggeswell, John Mohler and Mr..
Vantine, of the firm of Vantine & Wehr<
mann, grocers, of 81 Spring street.
COggeswell has been the trusted truck
man of the Brooklyn Sugar Refining
company for years. Mohler has been
receiving clerk for the firm of Austin.
Nichols & Co., the wholesale grocers at
55-61 Hudson street. A member of the
latter firm recently called on Inspector
Byrnes and informed him that their
firm was being robbed of sugar in some
unaccOuntable way. Detectives were
at once put on the case, and they
soon discovered that Coggeswel and
MOhler were in cOllusiOn. They subse-
Quently learned that when Coggeswell
was sent with twenty-five barrels OF
sugar to be delivered to Austin, Nichols
& Co. he always left ten of the barrels
at the store of Vantine & Wehrmann,
and that MOhler would always sign for
the receipt of twenty-five barrels at the
store of Austin, Nichols & Co. The
three prisoners have confessed to the
theft, but Vantine claims that he be-
lieved the sugar he received came direct
from the refinery. He had been paying
$40 barrel for loaf sugar and S12 for
granulated. This is about one-half of
the real value. During the existence Of
this system of theft it is estimated that
upward of $50 barrels of sugar have
been stolen. The aggregate value is
about $1,000. The courts will probably
have to decide whether the Brooklyn
Sugar Refining company or the firm Of
Austin, Nichols & Co. will sustain the
loss.

WASHINGTON, June 12.-The Sunday
Herald to-day says: zone of the great
est trials the navy department has to
encounter is the remarkable manner in
which the contractors for the new ships
are acting. The Petrol and Baltimore
are months behind, and the govern

more would have been completed in
every respect by this time, but the con-
tractors now announce that private
trial of the vessels machinery will be
made this week for their exclusive use,
The official trial is matter of the dim
future, as it is almost certain that a
number of defects will be discovered,
which will have to be remedied. In re-

Works, of Baltimore. Md, which
had the contract for this ship,
found it more advantageous for
them to finish a feet of

of affairs could not last forever, and
lately the navy department has received
word that the ship is about ready for
her official trial. The accident to the

least two months, as it has become nee
essary to procure new slides for those

fact that it takes such length of time

AT PINE RIDGE AGENCY.
The Commission Meeting With
Considerable Opposition.

PINE RIDGE AGENCY, OAK. June 16.
The Commissioners were informed
the Cheyennes desired to have dialect
conference. as they did not understand
the language used yesterday. An in
quiry developed the fact that when the
Cheyennes were leaving their camps for
this caucus the Sioux soldiers interfered
and told them they must not talk to the
commissioners. This action indicates
the policy of Red Cloud and his follow
erS, and is in line with their conduct yes
terday. The Cheyennes we're given a
separate audience and the bill carefully
explained in their own language. They
express satisfaction frequently. 1t
seems now that the mixed bloodS are in
opposition to it is mainly confined to
Red Clouds followers. The Sioux In
dians had a council with each other
this morning while the commissioners
were talking with the Cheyennes. At
this council there was considerable eX-
element. About fifteen chiefs spoke
in opposition to signing the bill. giving
as reasons that the government had not
fulfilled the promises OF the treaty of
1868. Other objections were made,
mainly such as were urged at Rosebud.
They endeavored to pledge their bands
to act together. or IN other
words, to enforce the caucus sys-
TEN. No Flesh said that he was
in favor of singing: that he was think
ing about the future; that he wanted
his children to be further advanced
than he was. That when they attended
school and learned what the white man
learned they wanted to act as the white
men acted; that he believed the only
way to bring about this was to take up
land and get papers for it; that he
should sign no matter who objected,
and that if any one tried to prevent he
would make them cry. American
Horse took the same side, though less
emphatic than No Flesh. Oldham
Afraid-of-His-Horses, the former great
chief, said that he was too old to try
and control his young men. Here he
warned them to think for themselves
and then to do as they thought best.
Red Clouds influence for the time
seems to prevail with apparent una
nimity.
