Next Dividend of the Great Trust to
BE Reduced.

Havemeyers annual report to the stock
holders of the American Sugar Refining
Company, at their annual meeting in Jersey
City to-day, forecasts a reduction of the
next dividend, declaration afterward de-
cided on. Mr.. Havemeyer said there was
no settlement of the sugar war and no sign
of such settlement, nor had there ever been
since the war began. The recent advance
In refined sugars was not altogether due
to shortage of the Louisiana crop. but
to an advance in raws. A resolution was
passed authorizing the directors to cancel
any portion Of the s10OOO,OO0 bonds against
a mortgage on property Of the company
when the company was organized. All of
the bonds are now in the treasury of the
company. The company has sold property
amounting to 1856, 900 covered by this mort
gage, which money has been in the hands
of trust company for two years drawing
per cent. President Havemeyer said:
1.-The company will not sell any of these
bonds. We have abundant capital
fer business and will have as long
as have anything to do with
the company. If the same con-
ditions exists in March, 1t will be necessary
to reduce the dividend sugar common

the keynotes of his campaign. There are
five candidates for Keough's position on

Second district Democrats have opened a
party gap in electing Parks Martin district
chairman, over Judge c. X. Thorp, of

friends that six Monroe county votes and
five from Green, which were promised,
were not delivered. AS he was defeated by
only eighteen votes these eleven would
have elected him. Sharp's friends are max
ing vague remarks about possible defeat
for Representative r. w. Miers.

testified that he received from Chaplin a
note of the Brazil Ice and Cold Storage
Company, and when he returned the note
to Chapin's attorney he received in ex-
change for it note for $500, signed by
Henry L. Bynun, secretary, and Sterling X.

was signed by Chaplin as president. By
mum was called, and denied signing the
note given by Chaplin to Sweetzer. Charles

signature on the note in question was not
genuine. With some application of the
preceding evidence. the State at o'clock
rested it's case. The testimony was replete
with passages at arms between Counsel
knight, of the defense, and Advisory Coun-
sci Span, who is assisting the prosecution,
the Court repeatedly having TO interpose
Its authority to prevent breaches of de-
cOrum.
Attorney Noel, of indianapolis, who is
retained by Chaplin. outlined the defense.
He laid particular stress on the fact that
with the cash secured by the sale of the
notes Chaplin bought the Charlemont Hotel,
within mile of Hollis home: that he tried
to conduct 1T on a paying basis but could
not and was forced to sell; and that Chap
ms parents had left 10 him about $4,000,
most of which had been secured by Holt
by Misrepresentation and fraud. When he
referred to the fact that Chaplin was ar
rested in Philadelphia when returning
from his chid's funeral, Mrs. Chaplin
broke down. and many OF the women In
the court room were crying. Reverting to
the merits of the case, Mr.. Noel said the
defense would prove by the purchaser from
Chaplin of the Charfemont Hotel, the ident-
ity of the signature TO the notes with
Hollis known handwriting. In the further
ance of this contention c. s. Andrews, pres
ident of the First National Bank OF Brazil,
and Colonel Zimmerman and John Watson,

growing out of the smallpox fiasco here.
1t is said that Mrs. Shubert, Park Place
resident, was visited by the county health
officer a week ago and suffered the indig-
nifty OF having herself quarantined, a guard
stationed upon her premises and the red
flag displayed from her house. She asserts
that she has not been conAped to her bed
a day during all that time, and that on the
day the visit was made to her home she
was busy with her household duties. Mrs.
Shubert declared that she has never been
in better health during her life, and suf-
fered from an inconsequential skin disease,
to which she is at times subject. and which
she fully explained TO the authorities at
the time. One OF the leading law
firms of the city has been retained to
prosecute her case against the county.
The suit against the city is somewhat
similar. Frank Mccall. a plumber and
contractor, was quarantined and kept
from his place of business for time
on account OF an alleged case of smallpox
in his home. His sister-in-law. Miss We'll

pOX. The quarantine was removed after
five days, and competent medical authori-
ties assert there were symptoms what
ever of smallpox about the case. Both
plaintiffs will demand heavy damages.
