MAMMOTH SUGAR COMBINE.
A Deal in Progress to Unite All the Big
Interests.


Chicago, June 6.-The Record to-mor-
row VIII say: That negotiations are
IN progress looking toward a mammoth
sugar consolidation is now admitted by
one OF the men most interested These
stories have been circulated at various
times, remote and recent but nothing
contirmatory has been obtainable. 1t is
not asserted that the deal on hand at
present is in tangible shape, but it is
real enough to have necessitated confer
ences in New York and the plans are
now under consideration by the execu-
'tiVes concerned.
From widely different sources to-day
came reports of an independent union
of the American sugar refining compa-
MES and the glucose sugar refining COM
p2nieS with the subsequent absorption
by purchase or otherwise of the plants
offered by the Arbuckle interests and
the Doscher refineries with perhaps
other competing plants.
I can say nothing definite at this
time said one of the head men of
the recent conferences. Il am in a
confidential position with reference to
the matter. But l am at liberty to say
there is a good deal more in the re-
ports of a consolidation of sugar inter
ests than is generally credited. Nego-
tiations are in progress on the general
lines indicated, but | cannot speak
more specifically"

IN THE DISTRICT COURT
Some More Probing in Inherit
tance Matters.
AN EVASION OF THE TAX
The Attorney General Asks for a
Further Investigation - Mentions
Several Estates Done
Through Appraisemen

The attorney general has suspicion
that more than one estate in Silver
Bow county is evadng the inheritance
tax, and County Attorney Connolly yes
terday received a letter from him re-
questing him not only to look into the
valuation of the Davis estate. but also
of the estates of w. J. Mcnamara and
Grace E. Gaylord. The Mcnamara es-
tate is appraised at only s1S,500, upon
which an inheritance tax of S115 is paid.
The Gaylord estate is appraised at $780,,
244.99 and the tax amounts to but
$33644. while the Davis estate is valued
at $S5443S and the tax fixed at $I,999,
only a tax of l per cent. being levied
on the three estates. Attorney General
Nolan does not think it possible that
the estates went entirely to direct
heirs.
1t is a notorious fact" he writes,
that there is a disposition to escape
the burdens of the inheritance tax. This
is done through appraisements being
made of the property considerably
lower than its actual value.
j. T. Collins, the public administra-
tor, has petitioned the district court
for letters of administration on the es-
tate of Angus Mcleod. The estate con-
sists of 81. 36S.33 in cash. a note for $100
a funeral benefit of $50 from the Miners
union, $96.25 wages from the Anaconda
company, personal effects valued at
800 and seven shares in the PennsyI-
vania Iron and Steel works (value I'M
krown).
Frank Murray, who was convicted
several weeks ago of robbing a drunken
man, will be sentenced by Judge
Clancy this morning.

Washington, June 6.-The question of
the presence of the North Atlantic squad
ron, under Admiral Sampson, at the Sgd
ney carnival in August was under con-
Sideration at the navy department some
weeks ago, but the proposed visit was
abandoned. The matter came up as a re-
suit of a. talk between Admiral Sampson
and Admiral Fisher of the British North
Atlantic squadron while the vessels of
the two squadrons were a Bermuda some
months ago, as a result of which a ten
tative agreement was arrived at. subject
to the approval of the navy department.
that the American squadron might visit
Sydney on the occasion named.
Subsequent to this. however, Admiral
Fisher was relieved from the command
OF the British squadron and Admiral Bed
ford was appointed to succeed him. 1t
was not known by the navy officials what
Admiral Bedfords wishes were in the
matter, and in the meantime the authori-
ties here determined upon line of duty
for the American squadron which would
preclude it's presence at Sydney. and the
mayor of that city was so informed.
Much of the time of Admiral Simpsons

TWO BOYS ARE ARRESTED
Suspected of Being Responsible
for Burglaries.
WERE CAUGHT IN THE ACT
Discovered After They Had Broken Into
Courtney's Store-One Confessed
to Implication in Other
Burglaries.

The police believe they have captured
the culprits who are responsible for
the series of recent burglaries in which
the burglars have broken into different
places of business. but have contented
themselves with taking little or nothing
of value. They are two boys, George
and Jay Sullivan, brothers, aged 10 and
u years respectively. They were caught
yesterday morning in the act of com
hitting a burglary at the grocery store
of Thomas F. Courtney in North Main
street
A few minutes after o'clock yester-
day morning James Dwyer, Waterman
at Marcus DAILY & Co.'S bank. was walk
ing down Main astreet and CHANGED to
glance into the Courtney store. He was
surprised to see the back door open
and a boy in the act of carrying out u
demijohn. The boy saw Mr.. Dwyer
about the same time that he was him
self observed and, dropping the demi-
john, he fed out of the store. An Off
Ger was called and the boy, Jay Sulli-
van, and his brother George, who had
been posted to watch for the police,
were caught.
On examining the place the officers
found that entrance had been effected
by breaking the glass in the rear door
and drawing the bolt. From the fact
that the means was the same as that
adopted in numerous small burglaries
of late, the police think the boys are
The ones vino have been doing the work
Another reason for the belief is the fact
that very little was taken in any of the
burglaries, which was probably due TO
the boys being so small they could not
carry off any considerable amount Of
plumber.
The boy George confessed that Jay
posted him to watch for the police
while he broke into the store. Jay adj
mtted going into the store, but denied
breaking in. He said he was selling
papers and saw the door open, and that
he told his brother to watch for the po-
lice and then went around to the rear
to see what he could get. George also
confessed that he and his brother We're
implicated in another of the recent bur-
glarieS. but this the elder brother also
denied. The younger brother, being of
very tender years and quite evidently
having been led into wrOngdoing, was
released, but the brother Jay was held,
and, it is stated will be proceeded
against. the intention being to send him
to the reform school. Two other boys
We're arrested but the police have as
yet procured no evidence against them
and they will probably be released.
