BIG SCHEME.
Efforts to Control
Sugar.
Wholesalers Will Make the
Future Price.
Retail Grocers and Department Stores
Will Be Cut Off.
The Combination Said to BE I'm Pro-
gress for Two Months.

CHICAGO, Sept. 2s Some of the big
retail grocers and department stores in
the city have unoarthed what is said to
be Ahe strongest combination ever formed
to control the price OF sugar. 1t Is said
that the wholesale grocers have nearly
perfected an arrangement with the sugar
trust known as the factor plan, or modi-
fed equality plan, by which retail grocers
and department stores Will be cut of.
Several of the retail and department stores
have been notified by the agents OF the
trust that they will not be sold any more
sugar on a parity with the wholesale
grocers. 1t is said that the combination
has been in progress of formation for
two mouths. The grocers assert the
scheme had its origin with the trust,
while the agents of the latter are equally
positive that II emanated from the whole
salers. The plan proposed is that the
grocers are to act simply as factors for
the trust, forwarding 1t to within 80
days after the receipt of goods, the
amount of the invoice, less / per cent. on
the hundred barrel lots, with the right to
deduct / per cent. additional IL the for
warding OF cash is made in seven days,
the dealer is not to be permitted 10 sell
sugar her directly or indirectly at less
than the rate book prices of the trust. A
commission of one-eighth of one cent a
pound is TO be allowed to grocers by the
trust, and one-sixteenth of one cent ad-
ditional is to go into a general fund for
maintaining q local association. Ii is said
that the trust proposes to pursue similar
tactics in all the leading cities in the
country.

What the United States Will

The Insurrection Must BE Put Down
Within Three Months.

CHICAGO, Sept. 28.-A special from
Washington says: Spain must crush the
Cuban rebellion during the next three
months or submit to international inter-
ference in the interests of humanity and
commerce. That is the significance of
series of conferences just held between
Secretary Olney and the Spanish minister,
Senior Dupuy de LONE. The United States
has agreed for the present to keep hands
out OF the trouble, but this Is accompan-
led by tacit warning that unless Spain
carries out her promise OF suppressing
the insurrection ana restoring order to
Cuba, within reasonable time, she must
expect the United States government to
pursue a quite different policy. In other
words, Spain is to be given one chance
10 demonstrate her ability TO rule the is
land, and failing In this, the chances
are that the United States government
will take the leadership in the interna-
tional Intervention, with the complete
autonomy, or perhaps the independence
of Cuba as the objective point.
The conferences were held at the request
of Secretary OlDey. who asked Senior Du-
puy de LONE, for a full statement OF the
condition of affairs IN Cuba, the inten-
tions of the Spanish government, its abil-
ity TO protect American citizens and their
property, and the prospect of suppressing
the insurrection.

The YACHT RACE.
EtheIwynn Led Spruce at the
Beginnins.

CENTER ISLAND, Sept. 9.--The racing
committee of the Seawanhaka Corinth
ian Club having charge of the series OF
international races between Spruce ~,
skipper Brand OF the Minima Club OF En-
gland. and Ethelwynn, Captain Ball OF
the Indian Harbor Yacht Club OF Con-
necticut decided against the British
yacht in the matter of the protest which
Mr.. Brand raised after rounding the Sec
ond mark in yesterdays race. Conse-
uuently, the fifth race of the series VIII
be sailed today over a triangular course
two miles to the leg and repeat.
. AS per agreement, the choice OF course,
as between triangular and windward
and return, in this final race, Will be de-
ciued by the toss OF coin by the skip
pers. Mr.. Brand won and he chose the
triangular. There is a fine breeze blow
ing and there is every promise OF an ex-
citing race 10 end the series.
The Yankee yacht Ethelwynn was
taken out CT the water this morning and
the designer, Mr.. Stevens, had number
of men busy getting her ready for today's
contest. When the center-b board was
taken out, IL was found TO be buckled
badly. There was not enough time TO
properly fix it, but by some little ham
mering Il was put in as good shape as
possible.
The racers were sent off on a leg to
windward. When the first OF them came
into sight from the club observatory. she
was seen to be Ethelwynn. Spruce Nv
did not show fer some time. When she
did there WAS distance of what seemed
TO be an eighth of a mile between them,
but the distance is probably not so great
as the angle on which the club men
gazed was not true. Ethelwynn stood
on a long starboard tack, while Spruce
made several short tacks closer to shcre.
Ethelwynn came about 10 starboard a.
1 80 but stayed there~only couple OF
minutes Spruce IV went on making
tacks, going about twice TO Ethelwynn's =
once. The Yankee was compelled 10
stand well beyond the mark before she
dared jibe to pass the buoy. She jiped
al 1865. II was :3s :03 when Spruce Nv
made her jibe for the mark.

Loss About $15O,OOO.

One-half OF the $780, 900 plant Of the
River Spinning Mill in Woonsocket was
destroyed by fire this morning, entailing
loss of about $3.50, 900. The fire started
about $3.50 a. m. in the dye house. 1t
spread with great rapidity and by the
time the fire department arrived had q
good start. The city water pressure was
inadequate and allowed the whole build
ing and store house 10 be doomed before
the control was obtained. The two steam
fire engines which are usually called to
fires were summoned and arrived about
40 minutes after the start. The mill pump
was started and three streams drawn
from the Blackstone river, which flows
nearby. The engines pumped on four
streams from the river. The city pres

sprinkler heads which were opened by the
fire was improved when they were shut
off. BY that time, the whole building
containing the dye bouses, dry room,
picker room and an adjacent store house
was wall of flames and smoke. The
wind blew the fire from the main mill,
which was saved. The combined forces
from river and city service soon mad its
effect, and at 10 a. 10. the fire was under
control. IL was not eXtinguished until
long after The River Spinning Mill man
ufactures woolen yarns, employing about
200 hands. The mill is a new ones and
built in the most modern manner. The
main mill is about 300x1l0 feet, four
stories. Adjoining is the engine room
and boiler house. Just beyond 10

dye-house, picker room and dye

THE CORONER'S REPORT.
Frank Il. Best's Death and the Find
ing of the Inquest

Coroner +. II. Lincoln has filed his re-
port of the inquest of the killing of Frank
Il. Best on Cranston street, July 9. The
report states that the chilu was killed by
the neglect of the Union Railroad Com
pany for not providing some sort of a
lender for its cars. The coroner also find
that motorman John Hanson did all that
was possible TO prevent the accident; but
it was clearly shown, that the car was
moving slowly at the time of the acci-
dent, and had there been a fender on the
car, it is probable that the child would
not have been killed. 1t was also found
that death resulted by the boy being hit
by the motor under the car.
