Newark, April S.-The suit of the
state of New Jersey and John r. Mil
Ter & Sons against the American To-
bacco company, to annul it's charter,
was renewed before Vice Chancellor
Reed in the court of chancery this
morning
James kenney, a iobber, testified
that he had received a letter from
Secretary Brown of the trust, revoking
his contract because Kenney was hand
ling Admiral cigarettes. Later Kenney
called at the office of the trust in New
York and obtained permission from the
secretary to sell what stock he had on
hand. After that Kenney sold "Ad-
mirar' goods on the sly, keeping the
stock in the house of his brother.
j. Frank Crawford, another jobber
when called to the stand, testified that
Agent Dunstaeller of the Tobacco
Trust had complained because he had
noticed an Admiral cartoon on the
counter of Crawford's store. The deal
er was forced to remove the advertise
ment and subsequently turned over
5000 cigarettes to the Admiral COM
pany, under the impression that he
would be debarred from handling anti
trust goods. The question was raised
as to how Crawford had gained such
an impression, but Richard V. Linda
bury objected to the questions The
objection was overruled by Vice Chan
cellor Reed, who said that so far the
evidence taken showed that the agents
of the trust had used oppression in
their dealings with the jobbers.
