lie libraries bid fair TO become liter
ally cemeteries. This is the reason
why the Budget Committee proposes
10 have 100 copies Of the Journal OF
fetal printed daily on what is called
Dutch paper to insure preservation.

she added: ''Uf course We will know each

THE WHISKY TRUST SPONGE
Absorption of the Wabash Company Cuts

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, March 26.-The
fact that the Wabash Di,tilling Company,
as large and as profitable as any in the
country, was one of the first to be taken
in by the Whisky Trust lends additional
interest to the sensational allegations
made by Receiver McNulta. At the time
of the transfer to the trust of the Wabash
distillery, Colonel John Biggs, who less
than two years ago was elected vice -presi-
dent of the Dstilling and Cattle Feeding
Company, was large owner in the plant.
He and j. w. Freiberg of Cincinnati were
elected to the directorate at the reorgani-
Zation less than two years ago, but Colonel
Biggs declines to discuss the sensational
report of juggled accounts and doctored
documents as alleged to have been dis
covered by the experts.
Among the bankers and business men
here, the distilling interest being large,
the evidences of fraud were freely talked
OF. Regarding the statement that the old
directors sold treasury stock at S45 per
share, and thus swindled the trust out of
the difference between that price and par,
leading banker pointed out the fact that
the stock never reached a higher figure
than $780, and then only for day.
From that time the stock steadily de-
clined. 1t is generally understood here
that the sale of stock by the directors
seems to have been fraudulently made,
and was for the purpose of purchasing
the profitable Shufeldt plant, which cost
81, 500, 900. 1t is recalled, also, that about
the time the sale of that stock was made
it ranged in the market between $40
and $50.
Information reached here from source
considered thoroughly reliable to the effect
that the erection OF the new distillery by
the American Distributing Company wi IL
be proceeded with at once.
