the strike began, owing to the oversold

BREAD COMBINE Is FORMED.
Corporation Organized to Control Busi-

corporation Organized to Coutrol BusI-
ness in Most of the Large Cities.
What promises to be bread trust of
huge proportions had its beginning in
the Incorporation in Trenton, y. j., of
the National Bread Company. The CAPT
tai stock of the corporation, fixed at 80
100000, it is stated has been fully paid
in. The immediate ambition of the con-
Germ, if reports from a source seemingly
authentic are accurate, is to control the
bread output of New York City, Jersey
City and Newark. Eventually the cOrpO-
ration expects through a beginning in
Chicago and st. Louis, to acquire a SINH
lar control over the bread industry in all
of the more important cities of the Unit
ed States. If this be true, the company
is aiming at controlling in its line similar
to that of the other great corporations
regulating other products. Several of
the larger bakeries of New York already
have been absorbed on a division of stock
basis by the new company, and it is said
that in the resulting fight of the trust
for control the other bakeries will be fore
ed into the new concern or suffer from
the usual methods of competition.
