NOW THE GROCERS
WILL FORM A TRUST
Score of Ohio Wholesale Dealers
to Be Merged.

NEW YORK, Sept I5.-One OF the
latest combinations to be formed In the
line of trusts will be organized in New
Jersey today. It Is a consolidation Of a
score or so of wholesale grocers of Ohio
and will have a capital stock OF $10,25O,-
coo. The name of the company TO be in
corporated is the Ohio Grocer Company.
It's capital will be divided into $1,000. 600
6 per cent cumulative preferred stock
and $3.50 600 common stock. Final ar
rangements looking to a merger Of the
varioos concerns were taken at meet
ing OF the venders in Columbus last
week. 1t is understood that the Ohio
Grocer Company when completed will
control at least twenty-five houses.
Plans to consolidate grocers have been
often discussed in the East. but were
never put into successful operation. Pro-
moters OF the scheme have stated that
the enlarged buying power ought to
mean lower prices and better facilities
for distributing the goods sold. The at
torneys in charge of the scheme are

Rules Relaxed So as Not to Work
Hardship to importers.

Congestion at ports of entry caused
by the detention of cargoes of imports
for analysis, under the provisions Of the
pure food law. has compelled officials of
the Department of Agriculture to make
new regulations governing the analyses.
Operation of the law for several weeks
has made plain that under present regu-
lations IT will work a hardship on i'm
porters, particularly in those cases
where the port of entry is some dis
tance from Washington.
With view to relieving the hardship
which takes the form of storage charges
on the eargoes held up. orders have been
issued which will permit the delivery OF
cargoes in certain instances and at GER
tain ports before the analysis of the
samples has been made
The operation of the new law up to
date has demonstrated that little i'm
pure food or drink Is imported into the
United States. Samples of hundreds OF
cargoes have been examined and only one
case Of adulteration found.
Under the new plan, samples will be
taken as heretofore. but where the OFF,
cials of the Department of Agriculture
have reason to believe that nothing out
of the way viii be discovered they VIII
issue a special order that the consign-
ment be delivered II later examina-
tion of the samples taken shows adulter-
alton. close watch will be kept for
future shipments of the same produces,
when more drastic measures will be
adopted
In the case of the particular cargo
which has been delivered no action will
follow, as with delivery the customs oii-
cials lose jurisdiction over the goods.
It is believed that by this method all
hardship will be avoided. and at the
same time a continuance of the high
standard of imports which has prevailed
since the law Welt into operation win lie

Some tine ago Greed NJ. Fulton wrote
the Commissioners, requesting public
lamps be placed at intervals along the

War Departments Opinion.
Lieut. Col A. NJ. Miller returned the
papers to the Commissioners yesterday,
with the following comment:
LIT does not appear that the expense
of lighting the Conduit Road is proper
charge against the maintenance OF the
Washington Aqueduct. The road Is
owned in fee simple by the United States
and has never been declared a public
highway. Nevertheless It has always
been thrown open to public travel, AID
r. kept in good order and repair, and has
: become a great public benefit
This fact, however, would not seem
to entitle the residents along the road
to further benefit of light at the expense
of the United States. There would he
no objection to the District Commits
sioners assuming responsibility. under
approval as TO location of poles. eec.,
by the Chief of Engineers"
Mr.. Allen Takes Issue
: The Chief Of Engineers eoncurs in the
views expressed by Lieutenant Colonel
Miller. but Walter c. Allen. Electrical
Engineer for the District, is of differ
ent opinion. Mr.. Allen recommends that
T the case be forwarded to the Corporation
Counsel for opinion as to the legality Of
the use of funds appropriated for street
lighting on the Conduit Road.
1T is the uniform practice Of the do
partment," says the Electrical Engineer.
"to erect and maintain the public lamps

that the funds would be available for
