IT HAS THEM ALL.

ny tho Purchase OF the Shufeldt and Cal.
umet Distilleries the Whisky Trust Be.
comes One Of tho Most Complete Mo-
iidpoliss Iii tho words
. CHICAGO. June 5,-The whisky trust
has triumphed at last. The Distilling
and Cattle Feeding Company, the in
corporated name of the trust, has pur-
chased the Henry I'll. Shufeldt and the
Calumet Distillin8 Companys plants;
thereby ending one Of the bitterest
fights between rival concerns ever
known, and at the same time Great
ing one of the most. absolute and
complete monopolies the coinmercial
world has ever heard Of The two big
antitrust distilleries sold every thing,
which includes the real estate, machin-
cry, stock of goods, patents, trade
marks, good will and the right to con-
tinue the use of the names of the two
companies. The purchase price, it is
understood, is in the neigh orhood of
81, 100000.
The purchase leaves the trust practi-
cally without a rival. The trust was Of
ganized four years ago, and with these
purchases has succeeded in gobbling up
every distillery in the entire country.
One year ago it had four healthy rivals
in the field. They were the St. Paul
Distilling Company, the Riverdal
of Chicago, the Shufeldt and tile
Calumet At that time it weakened
its enemies strength by securing the
ST Paul concern, and last September
the Riverdale was brought into the
fold. And Thursday the crisis was
reached after a most bitter fight on the
part of the Schufeldts and Lynches:
Thursdays purchases, make the
whisky trust the absolute owners Of
every distillery in Chicago. The Shr-
feldt has capacity of $1,000 bushels,
producing $4,000 gallons of whisky a
day, proof goods. The Calumet's capaci-
ty is $4,000 bushels, or $4,000 gallons a
day. Before these last purchases
the trust produced about 100000
gallons day. The other Chi
cago distilleries owned by the trust
are the Phoenix, with d capacity of
$500 bushels; the United States, 1900;
the Chicago, $500; the Empire, $1,000;
the Riverdale, 1900; and the National,
1900, These do not represent half the
property of the trust, although if
necessary the Chicago plants could
produce about one-third of the total
product.
President Sheridan, Of the Calumet
Distilling Company, is of the opinion
that the new deal will not materially
affect the price of whisky, as it has al
ready reached the reasonable margin.
To raise it much higher would invite
competition with the Kentucky whisky
and bring large amounts Of aged goods
into the market.
