FABRITIS VICTORIOUS
COURT AWARDED HIM WAGON WHICH HAD BEEN ATTACHED
Fruit Dealer Litigant Wins in Jus tice. Court, But New Suit Has Been Filed Against
 Him.

A. D. Fabritis, the fruit merchant, who last winter came out of contest with the entire police department of Mont- gomery with flying colors. scored yester- day a decisive victory over creditors who had levied on his delivery wagon. Fa- britis, in the court of Justice R. H. Jones, secured the possession of his wag- on although a bailiff had taken charge of it under an order from Justice of the Peace.
 Fabritis brought suit in the court of Justice Jones to recover the possession of his wagon from C. l.. Hertz & Co. This firm had gotten an attachment from Jus tice J. B. Fuller for Faoritis's cash reg ister and his wagon. The cash register was returned on the representation of the agent of the manufacturer of the regis ter that the fruit dealer had not paid for it. +-.=:
 In his suit yesterday Fabritis claimed that the account which was due Hertz & Co. was made out to J. II. Fabritis X Bro. when it. should have been made out to A. D. Fabritis & Go. He claimed fur ther that to satisfy that debt wagon that was the personal property of A. D. Fabritis was levied upon.
 Justice Jones, after hearing the -evi- dence. ordered the return of the wagon to Fabritis. Hertz & Co. immediately entered a new suit against Fabritis for their account

THE NEW TRUST BILL
Littlef1eld's Measure Has Indorse-
ment of President Roosevelt.
Penalty Provisions So Framed That Evil
dence Can BE Secured OF the Inside
Workings of the Combines-Re-
ward for Informers.

New York, Sept. 17.-The Herald
claims to have the authoritative fore
cast of the Littlef1eld antitrust bill
which has been indorsed by President
Roosevelt. Both Attorney General
Knox and Mr.. Littlefield pointed out to
the president the great trouble with
antitrust legislation up to this time
is that people have been unable to
prove the inside workings of the
trust. They both recognize that if
anything is to be done it must be
possible to get at the big men. Yet
how can the big men be brought on,
the stand to testify against them
selves, when the constitution says
that no man is to be convicted upon
his own testimony; that he shall not
''be compelled in any criminal case
to be a. witness against himself"
The plan for getting around this con-
stitutiOnal bar is this: In all prose-
cutions, hearings and proceedings no
person shall be excused from at
tending and testifying on the ground
or for the reason that the evidence
required of him may tend to crimi-
nate him to a penalty or forfeiture;
but no person shall be prosecuted or
subjected to any penalty or for
fixture for or on account of any
transaction, matter or thing concern
ing which he may testify or pro-
duce evidence. In other words, if
men like Morgan, Hill and Vanderbilt
should be engaged in railroad deal
which secretly embodies some agree
ment of trust character, any com
plainant who suffers injury from
this agreement can bring these kings
of finance into court and make them
testify against the others-make
him turn states evidence against
his own will.
The man who sues trust and has
the facts behind him that will prove
that he has suffered damages from
the operations of any company which
works in restraint of trade or com
merce is:
First-To receive three times the
actual amount of damage suffered.
Seeond-To have all of his lawyers
fees paid by the trust.
Third-To have the trust pay all
other expenses of the suit, including
the court costs.
