Greenville, Miss, Dec. 3d.
The Washington county grand
jury charges that because of the
cotton seed trust in that county
the farmers have been swindled
out of at least S125, 900 during
the present season, and the jury
has prepared a memorial to be
submitted to the Legislature ask
ing that. in view of the defects
in the existing antitrust law,
that a law be passed giving
grand juries the same power in
this matter that is accorded in
the code statute relative to gam.
bling, and which compels wit.
uesses to testify against them
selves. It is evidently the in
tention of the Washington ooun-
ty grand jury to continue the
prosecution of the oil mills, not
witbstanding the fact that the
Attorney General has discon-
tinued the prosecution on behalf
of the state. 1t is charged by
this Jury that the oil mills have
given an actual demonstration
Of their combine by sending out
signed notices to the planters
having cotton seed for sale that
on and after certain dates seed
will be purchased at a stated
price per ton, and that no mill
regardless of its distance from
the base OF supplies, will pay
more than this price.
