although much Of late has been sa,d
about trusts reducing prices Of s4aplss

cost would be reduced to the consumer
under certain circumstances,b but It was
as evident before as 1t is now that 4

as much profit out of the article con-

course an exorbitant price would de.

avoided. But II would be equally ab.
surd to assume that the monopoly Is
not going to get just as much as pos
sible. 1t would be difficult to think Of
a combination OF men that would do
less when clothed with such power.
The whole gist CT the testimony re-.
specting the sugar trust showed that

useless to say that trusts fall Of their
own weight and prosper most during
times of depression. being as much
the result of combination brought

out of spirit Of asslession- These
statements are undoubtedly true TO
quite an extent but the sugar trust
haSt continued to thrive in good as
well as bad times and has been 81
shrewdIy managed that It has been
able not only to squeeze consumers
but gamblers on the stock exchange
and to influence the United States
Senate. if we may judge from appar-
emily trustworthy evidence. One Of
the witnesses before the investigating
committee last week. Mr.. Lawson N.
Fuller. who is supposed to know where
of he spoke. declared that consumers
of sugar have been paying about four
millions year more than they would
have done under competition. There
had been reduction in the cost OF the
raw material during those years but
the consumer had not got the full adj
vantage Of it. Other testimony while
not SO explicit as this left no room to
doubt but that the trust controls the
market and fxes prices to suit itseIf.
Now it may be that individualism Is
to be eexterminatedi In business. that mod

whatever may bethought Of the trusts

DOUBLE MURDER.

Said To Have Occurred In Southern
Nevada.
The following is Of interest here
abouts. Whether the murders were
committed in this, or in Nye county
cannotbe determined from the word
ing of the account, but our officers
have not been notified as yet of the
matter:
Los Angeles, Cal, Nov. 3.-John
Hancock, formerly of Perry, River
side county, an ex-convict, is now
in the San Bernardino county Jail
charged with the murder of George
Engelke and Peter Edminston. The
crime is alleged to have taken place
on the desert in southern Nevada in
April of last year. Hancock was
arrested on the strength of a con-
fession made by Mrs. William Myers.
Engelke was a veterinary surgeon
well known in Southern California,
aud Edrniston was Canadian IND a
contractor by occupation.
Mrs Myerss story of the crime
is a thrilling narration. She left
Perry in company with Hancock
bound for Salt Lake. Her seven
year-old son accompanied them.
They had team of horses and when
one gave out at Daggett. Hancock
stole another there to take its place.
At Shrump, Nye county, New,
they fell in with DR.. Engeleke and
his partner, Edmiston, who were
going to drive to Ogden, Utah. The
two parties mentioned travelled to-
gether and Hancock stated to Mrs.
Myers his purpose of numbering the

THE TEN MILLION SILVER SHIP
MENT.

The order issued by the Treasury
Department for the shipment of 10,
600, 900 ounces of silver bullion from
the East to San Francisco, is said to
have been revoked.
Now the Superintendent of the
Mint at San Francisco has been in
stucted to receive bullion rendered
by any of the local banks. The
bankers can purchase the bullion of
the producers at the current prices,
less the expressage to New York.
and deposit it at the Mint.
The Mint, it seems, has been
ordered to coin 81, 500, 900 monthly.
1t was originally contemplated to
ship the bullion for this coinage
from New York to San Francisco
As the greater part of the bullion is
produced west of the Rocky Noun
tains, it looked like carrying coal to
Newcastle to ship bullion from New
York 70 San Francisco.

aubrey Blair Dead

Aubrey S. Blair, son OF A. y.
blair now Of Anaconda. Mont. died
ut Missoula, Mont. last week. The
cause of his death is not mentioned
but long iliness appears to have
preceded it. Aubrey was born IN
Phoebe and was "a years old at the
time Of his death.
Speaking Of MIN the Anaconda
Standard says:
MIR. Blair had long been a resi-
dent of this city. His parents re-
side here, and he was one of the best
known and most promising young
men OF the city. He had not an
enemy; all we're his friends. He
was pleasant, geniel, sociable and
agreeable. He had no bad habits
and was in every respect a model
young man. His occupation was
that of bookkeeper, and in his vo-
cation, few if any, excelled him.
The sad news of his untimely death
will be received with the greatest
sorrow in Anaconda.
