\ Trust Fast Eaough

DETROIT, March 19.-Judge Severens, in
the United States court, to-day rendered
an important decision bearing upon the
Sherman antitrust law. About a year
ago Merze. Warren aud the NJ Michgan and
National Capsule companies entered into
an agreement or pool to carry on the
business of manufacturing gelatine shells
for capsules as one institution under the
style of the United States Capsule COM
pany. Tho Merzs company baked and
filed a bill TO perpetuIlly restrain the
United States company from doing busi-
ness on the ground that 1t was an enter
prise to put up prices and bar competi-
tors out of business. The defense was
that the new company was not formed TO
raise prices, but to lessen the cost of pro-
duciion and stop ruinous competition and
yield better product. Judge Severens
takes the position that a trust was formed
in violation of the laws of Michigan. as
we'll as the act of congress. ut became
SO apparent" said Judge Severens in
connection with his opinion, THAT the
combination was intoerable under Mlchi-
gan laws, that it was not necessary TO APP
ply the act of congress which bears upon
the same question" The case will doubt
less undergo a review in the appellant
court.

A MANIA FoR WILLS.
That's What They say the Late senator
Fair Had


SAN FRANCISCO, March i9.-The legal
contest over the 100000 left by the
late James G.. Fair has been n topic of
general discussion here since the produc-
ton of the latest alleged will in the
superior court yesterday. To-day il is
rumored that still another will is in ex-
istence. The report is that 10 days be-
fore his death Fair executed still another
photographic will and entrusted it to the
keeping of Mrs. Bessie Paxton, sister of
the wife of Col. Warfield, proprietor of the
California hotel. The late senator and the
Warfields were warm friends. Mrs. Pax
ton has left the city for Los Angeles and
the report cannot be verified. Rumors of
other wills were also heard, and II is
also limited that 1t may be shown that the
late millionaire had n mania for execut-
ing wills and testaments and entrusting
them to the keeping of his lady friends.
Ii now turns out that the reputed latest
will of James G.. Fair was left IN
charge of Mrs. Nettie l.. Cravens, a
principal in the public schools,
who was n great friend of Senator Fair.
The will was written in the house of
Mrs. Haskins, with whom Mrs Cravens
was living, and in the presence of bo,h
witnesses. The reason assigned for keep
ing the new will so long in the back
at the date of the will when Fair died,
and when the old will was made public
she thought ii was one of later date.

WASHINGTON, March 19.-It is probable
that Ambassador Bayard will be in
structed, by cable, to call the attention of
the British government to the British ul-
timatum addressed to Nicaragua and ask
for an explanation of British purposes.
WASHINGTON. March 19.-The British
embassy has received no information as
to the ultmatum of Great Britain to ic-
aragua for the payment of $4,000 within
seven weeks in redress for the expu sion
of Hatch, its consular agent, from Blue
fields, and of the dispatch of a British
warship to back up the ultimatum. Un-
der these circumstances it is thought, in
official circles, that the subject may be
handled through the British authorities
in Nicaragua, although it Is usual to ad-
wise the ambassador here on demand of
this movement. General Barrios, Nica-
raguan envoy, left this morning for New

SPANISH CRUISER SUNK.

Wholesale Loss OF Human Life Re-
ported-A Condemned Vessel
CADIz, March 19.-The Spanish cruiser
Alfonzo Mi. reports having found the
missing cruiser Reina Regente sunk near
Rajo Aceitanos, not far from the straits
of Gibraltar Only 20 inches of its masts
were above water. The Alfonzo XIII. has
returned TO the scene of the wreck with
divers to recover the bodies. The Reina
Regente carried crew of 420 officers and
men. and all are believed to have per-
ished. Deputy Daz Moreau, formery an
officer in the Spanish navy. in the cham
ber of deputies on March IA, read a state
mcnt of former commander of the Reina
Regente, in which the writer described
the cruiser as vessel unable to weather
heavy storm owing to the increased
weight OF her armament.
Admiral Beranger said that the over
weight of the cruisers deck guns was rec
titled two years ago by his orders when he
was minister of marine. In Cad.z and
Cartegan, where most of the crow be-
longed, there has been great anx.et and
excitement from the time the cruiser was
reported missing. The Reina Regentc

special Dispatch to the standard.
LIVINGSTON, March 19.-Arguments
were made to-day before Judge Henry in
the district court for and against granting
injunction asked for by c. S.
Hefferlin, heavy taxpayer of
this city, restraining the county commits
sioners of Park county for erecting the
$1,000 court house recently contracted
for. A. j. Campbell, plaintiffs attor-
ney, argued that the amount
contemplated to be expended
would increase the county's indeot-
edness about 1000 above the legislature
limit. He contended further that the sum
of 81 100 expended several years ago for
building plans and court house site should
be be considered as part of the liability
con emplated by the state legislature
within the $1,000 limit. Should this sum
be figured in, the court house would cost
$4,000, which is 5000 more than can
be expended for any single purpose
under the provisions of the leg
islature without submitting the
question to the taxpayers and getting
their consent. County Attorney Poorman
appeared for the county and argued that
in arriving at the real Indebtedness of the
county the cash on hand should be sub
tracted from the existing Indebtedness,
in which event the erection of the court
house would not increase the indebted
ness beyond the legislative limit.
He claimed that tho money previ-
ously expended for the court house
site should not be considered as a portion
of the $1,000 allowed by the legislature to
be applied by the commissioners at the
present time. Judge Henry took the case
under advisement, stating tnat he would
render decision in a day or two. Should
he refuse to grant the injunction the plain
tiff will appeal TO the supreme court.

Ii HUNG CHANG IN JAPAN
The Venerable SataSmll'S First Time
OH Chinese Soil.
A VERY SIGNIFICANT EVENT
The Terms of Peace Between the
Warring.NatIons Brought about
by the Good offices OF United
states Ministers.

WASHINGTON. March 19.-Li Hung
Chang's arrival in Japan is regarded in
official circles as one of the most signih-
cant events of recent days. Ii is the first
time in his life that the venerable states
man of China has set foot outside of Chi
nese soil. His journey to China's tradi-
tional foe is to offer enormous concessions
as a means of securing peace. 1t can be
stated positively and authoritatively that
the general terms of this peace are al
ready understood, and all that remains is
the arranging of details within certain
specified limits. The general terms have
been brought about by efforts of United
States Ministers DENLY IN China and Dun
in Toxic. 1t was even feared at a late
date that LIS mission might fail through
the vagueness of his authority to treat for
cedlng territory. This was arranged. how
ever, through the activity of the United
States ministers showing that the
mission would otherwise prove fu-
tile. The general terms of Ii Hung
Chang's authority are to cede territory,
pay n cash indemnity, grant independ-
ence to Corea aud arrange new treaty re-
lations with Japan by which japanese
extra-territorial jurisdiction in China will
be maintained. The exact amount of
tho cash indemnity is not fixed, nor is the
kind of metal it is to be paid in agreed
upon. These and the boundaries of the
cedcd territory are yet to be arranged. So
far as the arrangement has advanced,
Prince LIS mission is expected to be con-
summated within a few days unless some
unexpected hitch occurs. Count Ito, one
of the two Japanese ENJOYS, is a close
personal friend of Ii Hung Chang, the
two having settled the Corean trouble
in 1885. So great is the japanese
confidence in Chang's ability to zee that
China carries out an agreement that his
promise OF a settlement will probably
pave the way to a speedy cessation of
war. The reports that Russia will inter-
vene to stop the agreement are known to
be misleading from positive information
received here. These satisfactory, the
authorities believe that there will be no
word of trouble from Russia. The same
is believed to be true as to France, al
though not with the same certainty.
