Blow to "lndus trials"


The reduction of the dividend of the
American Sugar Refinery Company or
sugar trust" from II per cent a year,
which 1t has so long declared, to q
rate OF per cent Is blow to public
confidence In the entire range OF in
dustrials."
When these great corporations were
organized last year, no argument was
stronger, more pertinent or more fire..
quent than the example Of the sugar
trust, capitalized at four times the
value of the refneries united In 1t.
managed in secrecy. never publishing
reports, and yet for seven years de-
claring regular dividend of IL PEI
cent, and for fifteen years under va
rious corporate forms declaring large
profits and paying them.
The present reduction in dividend
comes as the result of war with conf
petitors, extending through two years.
The sugar trust melts about two-thir6s
OF the sugar consumed. or some years
after Its organization, aided by various
causes, 1t succeeded in adding to the
profit on refining, and saddling this
public with the cost. Competition has
cut this profit down TO nothing or
less than nothing.
No industrial" IN trade which may
not face like competition-nay, is
not certain to do 80 before long.

SEEK COEBEL'S ASSASSIN
(Associated Press spocialJ

ASSOCIATED Press SpecialD
Frankfort, KY, March 23.-Seventy-
FIVE extra police officers and deputy
sherifrs guarded the outer entrance to
the Courthouse today, while a file OF
soldiers stood at the doors and passed
on the credentials of persons entering
the room. The cause of this display OF
force was the opening of the prelimi-
nary hearing of the Gobel suspects.
The general public was excluded by an
order of Judge Moore, only attorneys,
relatives of the deceased, witnesses and
officers of the court being admitted.
The prisoners, Republican Secretary
of State Caleb Powers, w. ii. Culton
and John Davis. were brought into
the courtroom and took seats by their
counsel. The Commonwealth wit
nesses were called, numbering forty.
The name Of Sergeant Golden was not
In the list.
Eph Lillard, warden OF the Frank
fort penitentiary, was the first witness
sworn. He testified that he was with
Senator Goebel when the latter was
shot. He walked ahead of Senator
Goebel and was Just entering the State
House when the shot was fired. He
turned back from the State House
and saw what had happened. He look
ed toward the Executive building and
saw that the second window Of the cor
ner room was slightly raised. This
was the office of the Secretary Of State.
He thought the shot had been fired
from this room. There were several
other shots, but he said they did not
come from me same place. The first
shot was evidently from rifle, while
the, others seemed to be from pistols.
Cross examined by Ex-Governor
Brown, Colonel Lillard said he saw
nobody In the room from which the
shots seemed to have been fired and he
did not see anyone in the main door
or on the steps of the building at the
time of the shooting.
