 The standard oil can:.ot do whit the Sugar Trust has done. because the situ- ation is radically different. All the possible fields of sugar production were oneneJ years age and the handling of their product mas long been under per feet control But new fields oetro- leum rroduction gre constantly being onened. and every new field causes fresh upheaval, an extra wave of anti Standard agitation, with the result Of renewed Investigation and redoubled publfcfty Besides the raw material used by the Sugar Trust is mostly for eign product. while the petroleum that feeds the Standards ~efineries Is pro- duced in the LUited States.
 It Is possible of course, that the Pres ident has had a corps of special attor- neys busy for months taking anti-Su- Ear Trust testimony before Federal grand jurjes, or that the ingenious Mir. Garfield of the Bureau of Corporations is making an anti-Sugar Trust 'nvesti- gation on the quiet. the results to be sprung upon the jublic at some future psychological moment In either case naturally, the whole country W ould sud- denly sit urS and take renewed notice of sugar.
 HavSmeyers of Today and Yesterday.
 The Sugar Trust has never been dom mated by one man as John D. Rockefel- Ter has dominated the Standard oil or as James B Duke has dominated the Tobacco Trust Nor has its control been vested in many hands, as has the control of the Beef Trust. with its Ar mours, its Swifts. its Cudahys and its Morrises
 From the be beginning the Sugar Trust despite the temporary prominence of John E. Parsons. John E. Searles and fa leaders has been Havemeyer family affair
 The original Hsvemeyers in America first set foot on New World soil in 17ss, though some records say not till four years lster They were two brothers, Frederick c. and William F.
 They got into the sugar game at once and during the century and more that has elapsed since then the Havemeyer way of playing the game has been lit- tie stronger every year. In fact, the two original Havemeyers rselly began to builA the substructure of the Sugar Trust immediately after landing. They Hid it uno onsciously, of course. but they said the foundations all the same.
 There are many Havemeyers in the United States today. Their aggregate wealth amounts to hundreds of millions, and the Havemeyer worth less than a single m llion is thought almost poverty stricken by his relatives. But now. as a hundred years ago, two members of the family are specially prominent in the control and practical conduct of the business.
 They are H. O. Havemeyer, sr.. and H. O. Havemeyer. Jr. The first is a grandson of the first F. c. Havemeyer; the. second is his great-grandson. No descendant of the first W. F. is now prominently in the game. H. O. Have meyer, Sr.. is the trusts president; H. OF Havemeyer, Jr., his nephew, Is a son of the late Theodore A. Havemeyer, the trusts first president
 The younger man. who gives much attention to the practical running of the refneries, is now only about 2s years of age. To those who know him best, it seems only yesterday when he was a rather slim and trihing young ster much in evidence in summer al Newport, in winter wherever there was social Eayety. his little hand camera al- ways with him.
