Fifteen Arrests at Superior the Re-

suit of the Trouble.
WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, Dec. 3.-(Spe-
cial. .)-Fffteen men, charged with gam
bling or being proprietors of gambling
houses, have been arrested and arraigned
before County Judge Roberts and are now
out on $500 bail each. These last arrests
are, it is claimed, the result of the action
taken by the city administration to fre -ze
out about two-thirds of the gamblers here
The city recently imposed fines of $1OO
each on the proprietors of gambling
houses and forced all but eleven to close
up. A few days afterward the fine was
repeated and the number that paid was
reduced to about half dozen. This ac-
ton is said to have caused the suits
against the fifteen men just arrested. The
man who made the complaint was N
Hanson and it is alleged that he is backed
by the disgruntled members of the fra
ternity. However that may be, it is said
to be the intention Of this faction to push
the matter to a finish and clean out all
the houses in town

NOT IN SOAP TRUST.
The N. X. Fairbank Company onicial.
Iy Declare That They VIII Not GO In.

In recent interview Mr.. James b.
McNiahon. Second Vice President of Tha
N. K. Fairbank Company, speaking
officially In behalf of the Company, ex-
pressed himself as follows:
1--WE are not identified in any manner
with,the movement to combine the lead
ing Soap Manufacturers, although such a
movement Is well under way AMI may
eventually materialize. Notwithstanding
the conditions in the soap trade are very
badly demoralissd. the Fairbank Com
pany are not seeking or encouraging any
combination Of manufacturers as means
Of Improvement Soap prices are relative
ly the lowest In the history OF the trade.
The tallow market has advanced fully
one cent per pound in the past few
months without any corresponding i'm
provement in the selling prices Of soaps,
hence the present movement towards
combining interests. Any combination
embracing the principal manufacturers
throughout the country might naturally
and legitimately be In position to ad-
vance soap prices proportionatoly to the
enhancement of all raw materials. but
beyond this sffect on our trade we are
positively not interested or concerned In
any consolidation of soap interests. We
are encouraging our statesmen in all di.
rections to work with perfect confidence
in the permanent Independence of this
Company of all Crust" affiliations, and
we are plea sed to::state that the soap trade
continues very brisk, because, aside from
the natural effectiof the expected combi-
nation, the current cost of ell raw ma
tsrials warrants materially higher prices
ON soaps, and sensible buyers are antici.
pating future requirements to the full
limit of their convenience in carrying
stocks"
