also made several trips east.
The reports Of the experts were IA
vorable and the figure finally agreed
upon for the amount of stock the par
ties desired, approximately $4,000
shares, was from SIC to SIS per share,
dependent upon several questions as
to the company's assets, which could
only be settled by a conference between
Mr.. Cutler and the proposed buyers.
Control Remains in Utah.
The amount of stock proposed to be
purchased represents precisely one
half the capital stock Of the company.
The offer for it was first made by the
eastern gentlemen TO the larger stock
holders, and while it was accepted by
them, the president, Joseph F. Smith,
and the board of directors were unani-
nous in agreeing that all the smaller
stockholders should have the same
privilege, if they desired to avail
themselves of it. Letters were, there
fore, sent out 20 the 500 or more stock
holders. About 80 per cent of the
stock decided to go in, and the other
10 per cent decided not to sell any Of
their holdings. Thus, If the deal is
cOnsummated, One-half the stock viii
Be owned by eastern parties and one
half by Utah men.
The question as to who should con-
troll has cut no figure. as it is stipu-
lated. and was in fact one of the re-
quiTements made by the eastern par
ties that President Joseph F. Smith
should remain at the head Of the COM
pany; that Mr.. Cutler should remain
its manager; that majority of the
board of directors should reside in
Utah, and that the new board to be
elected at the annual meeting, April 6,
should hold office for a term of five
years.
These matters agreed upon. Mr..
Cutler left for Nav York on Friday last

facts are that competition in the ORR

apparently toward the German flag.

NJ. Glenn, secretary Of the Illinois
Manufacturers association, in a trip

ANXIETY AT OGDEN.
Fear That Advent of Trust May Mean
Harm to Ogden Factories.

N%-tfNN+NAA
Ogden. March 4-The news that the
American Sugar & Refining company
has secured the controlling interest in
the Utah Sugar company caused con-
siderable apprehension in Ogden as to
the probable effect it would have on the
Ogden and Logan sugar factories and
incidentally on the lie GTande, Ore,
factory, which is owned to a consider
able extent by Ogden parties. It was
seen at once that the American Sugar
& Refining company is a concern
strong enough to dominate the beet
sugar industry in Utah if it once gets
a fOOthOld. The trust could. by tenn
porarily raising the price of beets TO
the farmers, prevent the other facto-
ries from getting contracts, and by
lowering the price of sugar could make
it impossible for the other factories to
operate.
The stock in the Ogden sugar factory
is owned by David Eccles and his
business associates. excepting that
about 200 farmers have small holdings.
and the Logan factory is owned en-
tirely by Mr.. Eccles and his partners
Judge Rolapp, the secretary of both
these companies, and David Eccles, the
president both stated to The Herald
that no offer for a controlling interest
of their stocks had been made nor so
far as they could learn to any other
shareholder. Mr.. Eccles said that he
had felt satisfied for some time that
the American Sugar & Refining COM
pany was after the Utah factory. and
that he realized that this concern was
powerful enough TO do anything it
pleased with the sugar industry of
Utah.
It is understood that Joseph f. Smith
and T R. Cutler would still retain
their positions with the Utah company.
and the ogden men are satisfied that if
left to themselves those two officers
would not be hostile to the other facto-
ries of Utah.
But the fact that an outside concern
is in a position to dominate the bust
ness of sugar making in this locality
causes ConsiderabIe uneasiness. and 1t
is admitted on all sides that no sue
Cessful attempt can be made to fight
them. and if the trust should so will
the ogden and Logan factories would
have to close down
