A SUGAR TRUST
Which Proposes to Take in all the
Producers Of Sweets in the Coun-
try.

CHICAGO, June 6.-The Record to-
morrow will say:
That negotiations are in progress
looking toward a mammoth sugar con-
solidation is now admitted by one of
the men most interested. These sto-
ries have been circulated at various
times, remote and recent, but nothing
confirmatory has been obtained. 1t is
not asserted that the deal on hand at
present is in tangible shape, but it is
real enough to have necessitated con-
ferences in New York and the plans
are now under consideration by the
executives concerned.
From widely different sources to-day
came reports of an independent union
of the American Sugar Refining Com
pany and the Glucose Sugar Refining
Company, with the subsequent absorb
ton by purchase or otherwise of the
plants owned by the Arbuckle inter
ests and the Doscher refineries with,
perhaps, other competing plants.
Il can say nothing definite at this
time" said one of the head men of the
recent conferences, but | am at liber-
ty to say that there is a good deal
more in the reports of combination
of the sugar interests than is generally
credited. Negotiations are in progress
on the ganeral lines indicated but
cannot speak more specifically"

The Olympia, Bearing the Admiral,
Starts On Her Long Voyage Home
ward.

HONG KONG, June 6.-The United
States cruiser Olympia, with Admiral
Dewey on board, left here at o'clock
this afternoon. There was no demon
stration. The weather was wretched.
1t was blowing and raining hard at the
time of the war ships departure.
Consul Wildman remained on the
Olympia until the last minute with a
few friends of the admiral, who went
on board to bid him farewell.
At O'Clock sharp the ensign was
run up to peak and a large admirals
flag was hoisted at the main.
The Olympia moved off with ma
rine guard drawn up on her poop.
While passing the British cruiser
Powerful the band of the Olympia
played the British national anthem
and gave a bugle salute. There was
no firing. The Powerful replied with
a similar salute and their band played
Hail Columbia AS the Olympia
passed the Italian admirals ship the
Olympia's band played the Italian ma
tional anthem and gave an admiraIS
salute, which compliments were re-
turned. Then the Olympia's band
played "Auld Lang Syne' and the band
of the Powerful played Home, Sweet
Home"
Admiral Dewey is apparently anxi-
Gus to avoid all demonstrations.

A SLEEK SCHEME
Whereby q Louisville Bank Was Beaten
Out of $4,000


LOUISVILLE, Ky. June 6.-The Ger
man Insurance Bank of this city, was
victimized out of $4,000 Monday after
noon by two well dressed young men,
who worked neat game. Just before
the hour for closing the bank. the as
sistant cashier of the German Insur-
ance Bank was rung up by telephone
and asked if he could accommodate the
Citizens National Bank with SIS 900 in
currency On being answered in the
affirmative the inquiring party said he
would send two men around to get the
money. Shortly afterward two young
men appeared at the bank with a check
for $4,000 bearing the supposed signa-
ture Of the cashier of the Citizens
National Bank. The assistant cashier,
suspecting nothing wrong, counted out
the money to the young men, who were
profuse in their thanks as they ac-
cepted it. When the check reached the
clearing house to-day it was discovered
to be a forgery.
