FOR MORTON.
The Republicans Working Harmoniously
But the Warning Democratic Factions

Compromise.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-President
Cleveland and ex-President Harrison
both arrived in this city today. The
former was accompanied by Mrs.
Cleveland and E. @. Benedict, at
whose residence in Greenwich the
presidents family spent last night.
The party was driven to the house of
DIR. Bryant, the presidents physician.
Ex-President Harrison went to the
Fifth Avenue hotel, where a vast
throng of Republican politicians we're
awaiting his arrival. Soou after
reaching the hotel Hon. L. p. Morton,
the Republican nominee for governor,
called ard had an interview, which it
is said resulted IN an agreement on the
part of the ex-presidcnt to make one
or two speeches before his return.
There has however been no definite
announcement to this effect.
At Republican headquarters it was
announced that there had been no deS
velopmeuts to disturb conditions that
have existed for several days past. The
work of the campaign is being pro-
ceeded with aud the nearest approach
to a side issue was report from
Rochester that Hon. F. o. Williams,
who was nominated by petition for
congress on the Independent Republi,
can ticket, had withdrawn at the re-
quest OF the Republican state commits
tee, as it was confident that his candi-
dacy would endanger the head of the
state ticket.
The Democratic managers spent the
day in an endeavor to bring about har-
mony between opposing Democratic
factions in this city and Brooklyn, but
in New York it was said this evening
the prospect of reaching an agree
ment In this city was not bright. De-
spite the efforts of Senator Hill, Lieu

Faulkner to secure concessions from

Congressman Cummings authorized
the statement that he and General

that it might be. Senator Faulkner

Suit Against Strikers.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 24.-Judge Phillips
today overruled the demurrer in the
famous strike injunction suit of the
United States against M. J. Elliott
and over 100 members of the Ameri-
can Railway union. The government
filed bill calling for an order to re->
strain the defendants from interfering
with the mails or the Interstate COM
merce. A temporary order was granted
and the defendants filed demurrer
alleging want of jurisdiction. Judge
Phillips held that congress had the
right to regulate interstate commerce:
that it had passed a law in accordance
with that right, and that United
States District Attorney Clopton had
observed the letter of the law.

SUGAR TRUST IN COURT
ARGUMENT IN THE SUPREME
COURT ON AN APPEAL.
The Government Alleges Violation of the
Sherman Antitrust Law and Appeals
From an Adverse Decision In
Lower Court.

WASHINGTON, Oct. M.-Argument
was begun in the United States su.
preme court today in the appeal OF the
government from the decision of the
United States circuit court from the
Eastern Pennsylvania district in favor
OF the American Sugar Refining COM
pany, r. g. knight and the Spreckles
and Franklin retineries, against which
the government brought suit under
the Sherman antitrust law. Ex.So.
licitor General Philips opened for the
government, and John Johnson for
the refineries. The present suit was
brought originally with the intention
of having the site of the property
and business OF the knight, the
'Spreckles, the Franklin and the Del-
aware sugar house com panies to the
American Sugar Refining company
declared void and illegal under the
Sherman anti trust law.
The attorneys tor the government
in their arguments sought to show
that the four Philadelphia companies
prior to March, 1882, manufactured in.
dependently OF the American Sugar
company 33 l-3 per cent OF the total
sugar manufactured in the United
States, competing with the American
company. BY obtaining control OF the
stock of these companies, the Ameri-
can Refining company obtained vir-
tual monopoly of the sugar refining
business OF the United States and
were thus enabled to limit production
and increase the price of refined
sugar.
The consolidation was claimed to
have been combination or c9nspir-
acy to effect an illegal object 1t was
represented on behalf of the defend.
ants that there was no joint scheme for
consolidation on the part of defendant
companies, the owners of the shares of
the different companies dealing iuGe-
pendent of each other and without
any concert of action.
1t was also represented that the
Transaction did not involve any con.
tract except that to buy and sell
shores, and th8t no effort vas made to
prevent the vendors from engaging In
the independ sut manufacture OF sugar,
nor that other persons should be re
stricted from entering upon this bust.
ness, or that production should be
restricted or prices enhanced. They
also claimed that none of tbs manu-
factories have been dismantled and
also declared that more sugar had
been manufactured in Philadelphia
since the sale than before. Further.
more, they declared that each corpora.
tion continued to run its own orgain-
cation.
