THE WHOLESALE GROCERS.
Proposed Movement for a Combine fOl
Mutual Benefit.

Proposed Movement for a Combine for
Mutual Benefit.
Several local wholesale dealers In gro
ceries have been approached lately by
man who claims to be promoting what is
termed 1.-The National Wholesale Grocery
Company" an organization whose object
Is stated to be the formulation Of plans
for the advancement of the interests Of the
wholesale grocerymen OF the country. The
proposition contemplates a membership
from all sections of the union, the en-
trance fee being $25, and the protector OF
the idea, who has been interviewing Wash
ington grocerymen on the subject, has in
his possession a list Of dealers In New
York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and other
cities of the east who have paid the re-
quired sum and have signified their tnten-
ton of entering the combination. Among
those In Washington who nave been ap-
proached by the promoter OF the scheme
is Mr.. N. H. Shea, wholesale grocer at 6S2
Pennsylvania avenue, who gave the fol-
lowing explanation of the subject to q Star
reporter today:
$50 far as I was able to learn the pro-
jector of this company does not claim to
represent anybody in particular. He came
to me and stated that for the sum Of $25
ne would place my name upon the list of
wholesale dealers willing to enter the pro-
fOS>N
bination of the grocerymen and then to hold
meeting in some city to outline plans for
their advancement. This contemplates the
placing on the market of certain classes of
our goods. the sale Of which may prove
more profitable to us than will brands
OF the same merchandise we are now SELL
Ing. For instance, we now have for sale
certain kind Of breakfast food.
This food has been very extensively ad-
vertised lately and consequently there is a
strong demand for 1t. The manufacturers
realizing that demand are In position to
command very high prices from us. Those
prices ought to be much lower than they
are. According to the new scheme the
National Wholesale Grocery Company can
effect plan whereby We can ignore this
class of goods and place upon the market
another class Of our own choice. which
will be of just as good quality. but which
will not command the same price at the
factory. The man who called upon me said
he was representative OF the company.
but. so far as II could see, there Is no
company actually in existence. The inten-
ton is to have the subscribers meet and
form the association, and then outline their
plans. I declined to enter into the pro-
ject" fv
So far as can be learned none Of the
Washington wholesale grocers has SUBJ
scribed the $25 necessary to become men,
bers OF the company.

@eedinGs for HRbeas Corpus.

Withdrawal by Mrs. Dellinger of Pro-
seedlings for Habeas Corpus.
On petition Of Attorney Andrew Wilson
of counsel for Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Dellin-
ger, Justice Clabaugh of the Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia this afternoon
signed an order dismissing the proceedings
for habeas corpus recently instituted by
Mrs. Dellinger for the purpose of compel
ling her husband, Frank NJ. Dellinger, to re-
store to her the infant child of the couple.
In the petition the court was assured that
Mr.. and Mrs. Dellinger have entered into
an amicable settlement of their differences
outside of court.
In explanation of his alleged connection
with the trouble between Mr.. and Mrs. Del
linger, Mr.. George Rubenacher informs The
Star that he has known Mrs. Dellinger for
the last four months, having met her
through the introduction Of a.friend. About
a week after their acquaintance was formed
he asked her if she could furnish him with
breakfast at her house every morning, as
she kept boarding house and his business
necessitated his arising very early. She
stated that she could, and from that time
on he usually took his breakfast there,
paying her for each meal at the time.
Mrs. Dellinger told me her husband had
not been treating her WELL" he added, land
asked me what she had better do. She
stated that she would like to leave the city
anu asked me If I would assist her to do
SO. l said 1 would. She asked me where
sne could dispose of her furniture and 1
told her of place where she could sell It,
and arranged the sale between the party
who bought 1t and herself
That same afternoon Mrs. DelIinger left
the city and went to New Jersey, and I
went as far as Newark, N. j., with her,
providing her with a room there at a pri-
vate boarding house. Leaving her there 1
took the following train to New York Be-
fore leaving Washington she wrote the note
to her husband which has been published
In the papers.
'On the following Sunday after her re-
turn Mr.. Dellinger came to my fathers
house and offered me money to tell him
where his wife and child were. 1 declined
to accept 1t, but told him that 1 would do
all In my power to bring his wife and him
together again. Monday morning at 10
o'clock 1 met him and took him to where
his wife and child were sitting on a bench
In ArmOry Square. After l had seen him
the night before l had arranged with her
to be there, to meet her husband After a
short conversation with him she came To
me and asked my advice about what to do.
l told her she had better go home to her
mother. which she did, after her husband
had left with the child.
LAS far as l have known Mrs De]linger
she has always acted as a lady, and 1 have
always conducted myself a gentleman in
her company. / was not the cause of
breaking up her husbands home
Il did not assault Mr.. Cross last Satur-
day as charged, and the only part had in
the matter was to keep Mr.. Cross from
committing murderouS assault on NV
