WARFARE OF THE SUGAR MEN

Fight the American Trust.
Lx-coNeRtssMAN LEWIS IS A LEADER

Of the New Combination-'CaIi
Trust Against Trust
He says.

CHICAGO, March ~1I.-(special Telegram-)
The beet sugar men Of the west, repre-
Eenting 500, 600. 900 OF capital, are organ
ling to fight the Sugar trust, or American
Sugar Refining company. The first steps
were taken this afternoon at q meeting OF
the stockholders OF the Idaho Beet Sugar
company In the Home Life Insurance
building. Lasslie etreet.
Ex-Congressman j. Hamilton Lewis Of
Washington. who ls president OF the Idaho
company and h said to be slated for the
presidency Of the so-calIed Sugar Beet
trust" arrived today from Seattle and was
seen at the Auditorium Annex. He was
asked regarding the reports Of consolida-
ton.
ut is true" he said. "that a plan for the
reorganization Of the beet sugar companies
of the west is well under way, but the mat
ter is not In shape to discuss"
will you fight the Sugar trust or expect
to be absorbed q
There is no tank Of merger or absorb
tion," declared the. former congressman
emphstically. eve will. fight the trust. II

From other sources II was learned that
during the next fortnight representatives
Of most Of the western beet sugar men will
meet IN TINS CITY 10 take maj steps IN re-
organization and consolidation In a new
company.
The name will probably be the American
Beet Sugar company, and the capital will
DO 1900 0 900. or about one-tenth Of the
combined stock Issues Of the subsidiary
concerns. Michigan companies, the Idaho
company, the Colorado Beet Sugar COM
pany. and nearly all others OF equal Inn
portanee are said to>bs in the deal.
The part that the beet sugar king" Ok
nsrd, will play In the consolidation, Is
largely q matter Of guess. He Is supposed
to be a large holder of the stock in the
western companies, but always keeps well
under cover. While he will probably no
be present at the series of meetings which
started today, none the less II is understood
among the sugar company onncials that h
is back Of the proposed consolidation.
According to these informants, a grea
battle with the Havemeyer company is com
ing. Beet sugar. they maintain, can b
manufactured cheaper than the cane pro.

With each recurring epidemic OF the
grip It becomes more evident that II
leaves In Its wake a train Of stubborn all

clans. Loss Of flesh. thin blood, nervous
ness, shortness Of breath. exhaustion after
slight exertion-so that It is often difleult
to walk upstalrs-these are a few Of the
symptoms of after-effects OF the grip. More
serious results often follow and grip has
come to be regarded as the high road to
pneumonia, bronchitis and even con-
sumption. ~
Miss Nellie Hathaway, a, winsome girl Of
