WHISKY TRUST DOOMED.
Five of the Leading Distilleries With
draw From the Combine

Five of the Leading DiStilleries With
draw From the Combine.
Chicago, May 22.-The whisky trust
| will soon be Il thing of the past. Notice
of withdrawal from the combine has
been served by five of the leading dis
tilleries. and without their support the
trust cannot eNiSct
The alleged cause of the withdrawal 81
the fact that the trust has not for a
number of months paid the
individual distilleries the rental
Tor the ground Oh which the
distillcries stand. Men are now taking
stock in the various institutions prepar-
atory to the transfer. The names of
the concerns which have withdrawn
are Grove, Union, owned by Woolner
Bros; Manhattan, owned by T.. s. EaS-
ton; Peoria, owned by John H. Francis;
Northern, owned by the SchwabacherS.
1T is nothing more than Il stock Job
bing scheme" said L. j. HenncSscy, sec
rotary of the DiStilling and Cattle Feed
ing company, otherwise known rs the
Whisky trust, today. He was speaking
about the report that the withdrawal
from the combine would result in it's
total disruption. IF the Woolner Bros,
f. s. Eaton, III. q j. Schwabacilcr and
]. II. Francis think that they can clog
the wheels of the whiSkey trusts ma
chinery by pulling out, il is highly prob
able that they will find themselves
mistaken, for while they own the land,
the buildings and plants are owned
outright by the combine who will CON
tinue to operate the diStllercS just the
same"
Jacob WoOlner, a member of one Of
the firms which announced its with
drsCwal from the whisky trust, is at the
Grand Pacific hotel. When asked to-
day about the alleged disruption of the
trust he said: Il don't know what
action the directors of the Cattle Feed
ing company will take with reference
to the matter, nor do l care. We are
out of it now and our affairs cannot be
interfered with by the courts nor can
receiver control our property if one is
appointed for the company. / believe
that the consolidation of the diStillcrT
interests is once and for all time broken
up. How it will affect the stock 1
neither know nor care"
New York, May 22-The withdrawal
of five distilleries from the whisky trust
caused break in the stock of the lat
err from II 3-S to Is. Transactions We're
on larger scale and the dealings were
attended with much excitement. The
general list was weak in sympathy and
prices declined IA to 1 per cent. AT
1910 q. III. whisky was quiet at 10.
Peoria, May pa secret meeting
Of the directors of the whisky trust is
being held here to consider the with
drawal of the five distilling houses from
the trust 1T is believed that favorable
chances are to an agreement being
reached by which the seeding houses
will remain in the trust as the trust
has any quantity of manufactured
goods in stock enough to guarantee the
pay of the back rentals.

SWISS EXHIBIT CLOSED.
Commission Has a Falling Out With
Worlds Fair Managers.

Chicago, May 22.-There is a big row
on in the worlds fair. 1t came about
in this way: Saturday afternoon the
customs officers arrested p. B. NemitZ,
agent for a number of Smiss exhibitors,
for selling diamond brooch contrary
to law, all foreign goods being under
bond for the payment of duty before
sale.
The officers then took custody of the
Swiss exhibits. When the Swiss COM
sioner heard of it he became angry,
claiming that, although the officers had a
right to arrest the offending agent, they
had no right to take possession of the
entire exhibit. He therefore at once
closed the exhibit and telegraphed the
Swiss minister at Washington, stating
his action. A meeting of foreign exhib-
tors was held this afternoon at which
the Swiss commissioner offered reso-
luton that all foreign exhibits be closed
till the question is settled, which was
passed.
Minister to Investigate.
Washington, May 22.-The Swedish
Minister left tonight for Chicago to
investigate the trouble at the Swedish
exhibit at the worlds fair announced
in today's dispatches.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, May 2 - Ten
thousand people gathered on the high
bridge on South Avenue and on the
bluffs on both sides of the Mississippi
to watch the search for the remains of
Charles S. Rogers, President of the St
Paul Cordage Company, who jumped
200 feet into the river on Friday. For
two hours fifty or sixty boats, well
manned, dragged the river all the
way from the high bridge to Raspberry
Island. Every Hmethod failing, can
non were brought forth and fired over
the water, and later dozens of dyna-
mite cartridges were exploded in the
water. The booming of the cartridges
and cannon and the splashing of the
water as it was thrown forty to fifty
feet high caused the crowd to increase
to enormous proportions.
Finally somebody shouted, They've
got him." whereupon the great crowd
upon the bridge surged to the east
side. almost throwing the bridge off
it's piers. Instantly there was panic
caused by the swa ying of the bridge
and the hundreds of people upon the
structure hurried to dry land with the
greatest possible speed. A good many

THEY WANT S6,OOO,OOO.
Cherokccs in New York Trying to Make
Il Big Loan.

New York, May 22.-Wall street bank
ers have been asked to raise 100000
loan for the Cherokee Indian nation
Principal Chief Harris, of the Chero-
KEGS, who is in this city, has in his
pocket documents which he believes
will enable him to borrow $6,OOO,OOO
before leaves the city.
These documents show that the Cher
okees have sold to the United States
G,25O,OOO acres of land, known as the
"Cherokee outlet" at Il sum of $685.
1:56 Oh which about 1895, 1876 was paid
down, while the remaining $S,3OO,O0O
was 10 be paid in five equal installments
and to draw interest at the rate of 4
per cent.
They also show that the United
States has passed 4 law authorizing
the CherOkeeS to negotiate the indebt-
edness, pledging the principal and inter-
payment.
Chief Harris and his companions have
been in Washington and signed the
formal transfer of the land. Now they
are in this city to see if Wall street
does not want to pay the cash the
government has not on hand and accept
instead 4 per cent. bonds.
Chief Harris said in an interview that
they were forced to sell the land be-
cause the government refused to allow
them to rent it, thereby cutting off their
revenue from it.
''What will you do with the money
when you get it?'' was asked.
I'VE will divide it among our people
per capita. They will use it in improv-
ing their farms, buying machinery and
in general lettering their condition.

railroad Officials.
New YORK, May 2.-Ferdinand w.
Peck, president Of the Chicago Worlds
Fair directory, says that one object of
his visit to this city was to confer with
railway men with reference to reduced
rates to Chicago in the immediate
future.
Il have seen a number of railway
officials within the last two or three
days." he said, land 1 am confident
that the roads will make a reduced
rate to Chicago before long. l shall
try to impress it on them that it is for
the advantage of the roads to do so.
"The companies are pretty certain
to give reduced rates later, but the
sooner they put them into effect the
better. The fair is ready for visitors
now and l believe the people are ready
to go to it. AS soon as the crowd
begins to come and see it no further
advertisement Of it will be necessary.
It will commend itself to all visitors
and they will tell their neighbors about
1t. A reduced rate of fare at once will
bring a crowd.
