i1dge the ice companies combined
lAst spring for merry season Of
BOT. Ice combines had full swing
il othehr cities, why not in Toledo?
The price of ice last summer to
home consumers was Sc ton, or
80 cents for 100 pounds. Early last
March the biggest company an
nounced that the price would be
$40 a ton. Then the News-Bee got
busy. Inquiry developed the fact
that five big companies had issued
identical schedules of prices. The
managers claimed that a shortage
of the ice crop in Michigan, the
source of supply of the natural
product, had made sc per cent IN
crease necessary.
The News-Bee sent an expert to
the Michigan lakes from which ice
for Toledo is obtained. He found
that larger amount of ice was
harvested than had been used in
1905 and that, had they cared to,
the companies might have filled
their storage houses.
Evidence of a combine was pre-
scented and campaign waged
against the trust. 1t was shown
that for eight years the companies
had been clearing the field for high
prices by squeezing out small deal

ed. The first one tried was con
victed, the jury being out only IL
minutes. He waived the right to
appeal and the other four prisoners
| pleaded guilty. That placed them
within the power of the judge.
He sentenced the prisoners each
to pay $4,000 fine and serve year
in the workhouse. They were com
mitted to the county Jail pending
their transfer to the county brick
yard. After a few days in Jail the
attorneys for the trust magnates
rushed into court with an an
nOuncement that the price of ice
had been reduced to $3.50 a ton
The judge said that was a good
thing and he reduced the sentence
to $500 fine and six months in
the workhouse.
But it's freedom they want and
the lawyers are using the mos
desperate methods to get theil
clients out of their trouble.
Whatever the result, Toledo has
shown that trust managers are MOI
Jail proof, and the people look for
ward to fair degree of immunity
from extortion in the future. >.-..,.
