ONE huge TRUST.
The English.German Syndicate,s
UIavany DI~-

Mammoth Elan.
SAN Francisco, Aug 9.-Reports are In
circulation here that the Sugar Trust has
completed negotiations with an English.
German syndicate to get the sugar markets
of the world under one supreme control. The
plan contemplates bonding for short term
all the principal plantations of Cuba, the
Philippine Islands, Java and Nauritius, which
would place the main sources of the raw sup.
ply under the control Of the syndicate. The
surplus stocks of unrs6ned beet sugars of
Germany and France are to be accumulated
in store for shipment to America at the prop
er time. The supply of raw cane sugar will
be curtailed by at least three ffths. ALI
un1sfned beet sugar will be shipped to
America. This would create a deficiency in
Germany, France and England while the
American supply would still be short.
1t ia estimated that the sugar
trust and the Anglo-German partners would
at least pay 25 per cent. upon q capital of
$1OO, GOO, 600, which according to the runner
Will be necessary to accomplish this gigantic
scheme. It has been shown, however, that
there is an accumulation in the treasury of
the Sugar trust of one-fourth that amount,
aud few turns of the trust screw will soon
squeeze five or six millions additional from
the people. With such an available cash
basis 1t would be easy work for the trusts to
manage the scheme. A gentleman well in
formed on the subject said last night: 1.-THE
direct connection of the American
Sugar Trust and the Madgeburg German
syndicate, or trust, has been go closely
traced as to leave no doubt of 1t in the mind
of any intelligent person. The work of con-
oentrating the visible supply of beet sugar
in Germany, is well in hand, for the Madge-
burg syndicate recently had eighty million
pounds ready for shipment to America. The
hitch was on the United States tariff
which would not admit this raw sugar at
the lowest test. It was therefore necessary
to color 1t practically to suit the require
ments of the American sugar trust, its only
buyer. If this coloring could bs done to
order it would defraud Uncle Sam out of
81, 250, 900, and proportionately enrich the
sugar trust which would receive high grade
on low standard. Nothing daunted by the
illegality Of the project, the German syndi-
cate undertook to color the sugar. It was
first necessary, however, to remove it from
warehouses for manipulation. And at this
point it was that they struck the snag A
good deal of money is needed to handle 3d.
000, 900 pounds of sugar twice besides turn
ing it over and coloring it to pass 1t through
the appraisers hands, and it was the lack of
this coin that brought the gigantic conspiracy
to defraud the United States revenue to light.
