Heavy exports of wheat to Europe con.
tinue to draw upon American agencies OF
supply, and this country seems just now
to be the only source from which cereal
food for Europe's swarming millions NAV
be obtained. During the fiscal year end
ed June 80 last, there were exported about
I55, 900, 900 bushels of wheat and wheat
flour, as against I26, 400, 900 in 1896. This
indicated increase in volume of exporta-
tons is likely to be maintained for some
months to come, in view OF the very light
Australian and Argentinian crops, and the
slender prospects of wheat harvests in
Northern Europe.
According to the estimates of experts in
the Treasury Department, the revenue
from customs for the current fiscal year.
under the schedules of the Dingley bill,
as arranged in conference, should amount
to $I76,sS4, ooo For the previous twelve
month, under the operations of the Will
son tariff, the Federal revenue from this
source was $I74,o4I, ago.
A considerable proportion of this, how
ever, was due to heavy anticipatory i'm
ports of wool, raw sugar and other arti-
cles ON which it was proposed to increase
the rate of taxation and to Withdrawals
from bond of taxable goods lodged in
government warehouses.
The customs revenue in the fiscal year
1896 was about $3.50, 900, 900, and this sum
may be regarded as fair index of the
revenue producing capacity of the Wilson
law.
If the Dingley bill shall answer the ex-
pectations for the current year of the
Treasury experts, its capacity under nor
NAL conditions of importations to produce
ample revenue will scarcely be open to
question. -Newayk News.

Concerning the American horses IN

who received an ovation all along the
route. spent quarter of an hour in ST
lent prayer at the tomb, and returned
to Berlin soon after 9 o'clock
At that hour the troops. decorated
with the new memorial medals and de-
tachments of sailors took up the posi-
tons assigned to them on Inter den
Linden. About 1890 the Emperor, in
the uniform of the Garde du Corps, ar
rived and was welcomed with enthusi-
astic hurrahs, Hooks" and waving of
handkerchiefs.
His majesty halted before his late
grandfather's palace and ordered the
flags and standards stored therein to be
brought out. The Emperor then rode
at the head of the coiors, leading the
troops to the festival square.
The monument was unveiled at 11:30

press, ex-Empress Frederick the Kings
OF Saxony and Wurtenberg. The priv
LEGGED spectators numbered about 5000.

trumpet corps sounded the hymn,
"LOeba denn Herrn."
Rev. DR.. Faber delivered a prayer, the
trumpets and drums following with u
grand burst of music. The Emperor
then ordered the monument unveiled.
The troops presented arms and there
was a loud cheer. The massed bands
played the Prussian national anthem.
A salute of 101 guns was fired from the
Lustmarten adjoining, and all the
church bells rang. The ceremony end
ed with a choral played by special

the German and foreign Princes walked
in procession around the monument and
laid wreaths on the steps. In passing
Prince Hohenlohe the Imperial Chan
cellor, and the two Expresses bowed
graciously.

and was witnessed from q distance by
enormous crowds upon the roofs, in
windows and on the balconies of the
houses in the vicinity.

ferred on DR.. Won Boetucher, Minister

SUGAR TRUST CASE DECIDED.
AN OHIO JUDGE RULES IN FAVOR
OF THE HAVEnEYERS.
The Courts Cannot Restrain CorpOr-
ton From Selling Its Pro-
ducts Below Cost.

TOLEDO (O), March 22.-The long
expected decision of Judge Morris of
the Common Pleas Court in the suit of
Arbuckle Bros. against the Sugar
Trust was delivered this morning. 1t
is in favor of the latter.
The suit was brought by Thomas ].
Kuhn and the Arbuckles, the owners
Of the minority stock of the Woolson
Spice Company, against the Woolson
Spice Company and the leading stock
holders of the American Sugar Rein
ing Company for the appointment of a
receiver for the Woolson Company, the
majority of whose stock had been
bought by the Haveaneyens of the
trust
The plaintiffs declared that the Sugar
Trust purchased this stock to injure
Arbuckle Brothers and keep them from
going into the sugar refining business;
that the bushes ives being run at
loss, and therefore, the protection of
the interests of the minority of the
stockholders requires that a perpetual
injunction be made against the Wool
sons selling coffee at loss, and that a
Receiver be appointed to conduct the
business.
Judge Morris holds that the matter
of the price at which the company may
sell its coffee strictly pertains to the in
ternal agreement of the concern, and
so long as they act in good faith the
directors cannot be interfered with by
the court which cannot restrain a cor
roration from selling at a low price,
even though the minority of the stock
holders can show that a sound business
discretion would dictate different
policy.
The testimony, however, showed that
the Woolsons were selling at fair
margin of profit. The application for
perpetual injunction is, therefore,
denied.
With regard to the other point, the
court holds that the agreement of the
majority stockholders to sell the pro-
duct for the time at such price as will
drive a competitor out of business will
not make the corporation guilty of I'M
lawful conspiracy against the Compel
tor nor liable for his actual loss, nor
! entitle him to relief in the courts The
| competitor for public favor must bow
to that law of trade that allows every
man to dispose of his own property in
the ordinary course of business on such
terms as he sees fit. The motion for
the appointment of a Receiver is, there
| fore, overruled.

ANTITRUST LAW.
Decision Rendered by the Supreme
Court of the United States.

WASHINGTON, March 22-The Su-
preme Court has decided the case of the
United States VS.. the Trans Missouri
Freight Association against the rail-
roads. The opinion was rendered by
Justice Peckham. 1t reverses the de-
cision of the court below and holds that
the antitrust law of 1890 is applicable
tc railroad transportation and traffic
and an agreement to pool is illegal.
Justice Peckham reviewed the history
of the case. and stated the conclusion
Of the court in a very few words He
said that the bill had originally. been
filed by the Government for the~pur-
pose of securing the setting aside of the
agreement operating in the Southwest
which constituted the association to fix
rates of transportation which the va
rious roads constituting the pool should
agree to.
The bill was filed under the law
known as the Sherman antitrust Act
OF 1890. The defendants had in their
answer denied the Government allie
cation in respect especially to the point
of improper intent, and upon these
showings the case proceeded to a hear
ing. The court below decided that the
Sherman Act did not apply to rail-
roads, and therefore refused to sustain
the Government. It was also held by
the lower court that even if the Act
did apply, the agreement was not one
looking to the unreasonable restraint"
of trade.
Continuing, Justice Peckham said
that when the case was brought into
the Supreme Court the defendants had
moved to dismiss the appeal on the
ground that the freight associations
had been dissolved leaving nothing be-
fore the court, and also on the allega-
tion that the amount involved was not
sufficient to justify the consideration of
the case in the Supreme Court of the
United States. These motions were
| both overruled by the courts conclu-
sions announced to-day.
Justice Peckham said the mere dis
solution of the association did not de-
termine the question, as there was still
relief to be had. Taking UP the case
on its merits, he said the court had
reached the conclusion that the Sher-
man Act does not cover the question of

WESTPOINT (Ga), March 22.-The
Westpoint Bank closed it's doors this
