TRUST HIT HARD.
Sweeping Decision Of the 1llinois SUI
preme Court Affects Combina-
tiOns to Restrict Trade.

Springfield, Oct. 20.-The supreme
court of Illinois, in an elaborate de-
cision handed down Thursday evening,
forbids the transfer of the American
Glucose company's plant at Peoria to
the Glucose Sugar Refining company, Of
New Jersey, and declares the trust
agreement entered into with the lat
ter corporation to be illegal. This is
believed to be the first decision by any
court rendered in case in which the
legal questions involved in the modern
trust have been presented fully and
passed on.
By the terms of the decree the teust
will lose property, including an extern
sive plant at Peoria, for which it paid
over $2,000,000, and the stock and prop
erty will revert to the original owners,
of whom the complainant is one.
Besides pronouncing against the le-
gality of one of the most powerful trade
organizations formed in recent years,
the decision will make it dangerous to
interests involved to form combinations
in the future which have for their pur-
pose the absorption of sufficient num-
Der of concerns to control the output
of the product involved. 1t will also
place at the mercy of the law the many
combinations of capital and business
interests which have recently been
made, provided they are incorporated
under the statute of the state of Illi-
nois.

THE COLUMBIA WINS.
Defeats the Shamrock In the Series
Of Races for shesYachting Sue
premacy Of the world.

New York, Oct. 21.-The third and
final race in the series for the yachting
supremacy of the world was won yes
terday by the Columbia, the American
beauty defeating the Shamrock, the
British challenger, by minutes and
"a seconds. This makes three straight
victories for the Yankee boat, and for
the eleventh time the attempt of a
foreigner to wrest from America that
yachting supremacy of the world has
failed. The trophy won by the old
schooner America 4s years ago is still
ours, monument to the superiority of
American seamanship and American
naval architecture and standing chal-
lenge to the yachtsmen of all nations.
The intrinsic value of the reward
which hundreds of thousands of dollars
were expended to secure is small sim
ply an antiquated piece of silverware
which Queen Victoria offered to the
best sailing ship in the world in the
early days Of her reign-but around it
cluster the precious memories Of un-
broken American triumph and the
honor. of mastery in the noblest of
sports.

Rout of the Beers.
Ladysmith. Natal, Oct. 21.-A force
of Beers, estimated at 1000, attacked
Glencoe camp, near Dundee, yesterday
morning, and, after sharp engage
ment, they were driven from their po-
sitions on a commanding height and
their guns were captured in a brilliant
uphill charge. EARLY in the engage
ment Gen. Sir William Penn Symons,
in command at Glencoe, was hit in the
stomach and MORALLY wounded. Gen.
Yule assumed command.
The Beers have been utterly routed
and are retreating in confusion toward
the Buffalo river. The British hussars
and artillery are still pursuing them.
It is reported that the British losses
were 300 in killed and wounded, and
those of the Beers 500.

miles east of Canton, in Leake county,
was Thursday night the scene of hor-
rible tragedy sequel to the burning
OF the Gambrel family the night be-
fore. Joe Leflore, negro, who was
captured by posse, confessed that he,
in company with other negroes, had tied
Mrs. Gambrel and her four children
to the floor Of the house, saturated the
surroundings with kerosene, and
burned the unfortunate people alive.
The negro, after the confession of the
awful crime. was promptly roped to a
stake and burned to a crisp, while the
citizens looked on in grim silence.
