BIG FORTUNES
IN SUGAR BEETS
Large Sum to Be Distributed
Among Idaho and Utah
Farmers.

Something like 81, $780, 600 will be distrib
uted today by the Salt Lake & ogden
head offices of the Utah Sugar company,
the Lewiston Sugar company and the
Amalgamated Sugar company, to farmers
throughout this state and Idaho for the
october delivery Of beets.
The headquarters of the two last named
con- panleS are in Ogden, but all three
concerns use the same pay day. and
the october delivery is the grandeSt of
the season the amount of money paid
curing any one month reaches the highest
flSure tomorrow.
The present season III point of quantity
raised has been unprecedented in the an
nails OF beet culture in the west and the
district tributary TO the Lehi factory has
produced the greatest tonnage of beets of
3ry districts engaged in the industry in
the two states.
Next in line in point of tonnage is the
Sugar City factory. after which comes
Garland. Idaho Falls, Nampa and Black
foot
The settlement for November beets Will
take place Dec 10. but this will not be
large. as fully 10 per cent of the entire
CROP is delivered IN the month of October.
The present season has presented only
che drawback and that is the shortage Of
cars for the transportation of the pro-
dUct. This is less pronounced now than
at the commencement of the season. and
IN many cases the factories have accepted
delivery alongside the railroad tracks. the
matter OF getting the product TO the fac
tories thus being left in their hands.

AMOUNTS TO AN ADMISSION
New York Central Signed a Stipla-
ton in the Sugar Rebate
Case.

New York, Nov. 1.-THE second trial
of the New York Central & Hudson
River Railroad company. charged with
violations of the Elkins antitrust law
was begun in the United States circuit
court today
During the examination OF several
important witnesses. Immediately after
the close Of the prosecutions opening
address, it developed that the defense
had admitted in a signed stipulation
that the company paid $4,000 TO the SUI
gar company in the form of demurrage
charges. This is practically an admis-
sion on the part of the defense of all
the charges except that the $500 was
paid as rebates.
Lowell NJ. Palmer. formerly traffic
manager for the sugar company. ap-
peared as a witness for the prosecution.
IT came out that the witness had kept
a separate account in the Market and
Fulton National bank for the traffic
department. and that out OF the sums
on deposit there the salaries of his var
iouS assistants and office force were
paid. 1t is said that the federal au-
thorities expect To show before the trial
is over that the money deposited in his
account came entirely from rebates
and that the sugar company practically
paid the expenses of its great traffic
department ont of the rebates it re-
ceiVed.
It was said in the federal building
that the legal force of the American
Sugar Refining company, which is to
be placed on trial for the acceptance of
rebates at the conclusion of the present
trial, is TO be headed by Alton B.
Parker.
The taking of evidence ended late today
1t developed that the defense will call no
witnesses. but base it's argument upon
the plea that the overt acts alleged in
the indictments do not come within the
meaning of the Elkins law, and that this
plea would likewise be raised in defense
OF the American Sugar Refining COM
pany, which is charged with accepting the
rebates specifically cited in the case. 1t
ambassador 10 Great Britain, has been
retained by the sugar company especially
to argue this point, which he will do to-
morrow.

Immediately after the explosion thick
cloud of smoke filled the air and there
was "a strong odOr of chemicals. The
people in and about the cafe were panic

Tax on Credit Currency.

The greater portion of tCday'S SeS
sion of the committees was consumed III
the consideration of the report Of The
Subcommittee consisting of Messrs.
Forgan of Chicago. WeXier OF New Or
leans and Nanderlip of New York. to
which was referred the question of the
amount of tax to be imposed on the
issue Of general credit emergency cur
rency to be emitted oy hanks i'm times
of financial stringency. Some features
Of their report which it Is understood
included q graduated tax, were not en-
tirely satisfactory the bankers, and
it was recommitted to the special sub
committee for further consideration. Iu-
cidental to this also was the establish
ment Of an immediate guarantee fund
to meet the obligations of any bank
which failed before the regular guar
antee fund is available. There was a
division of sentiment as to the amount
of the graduated tax to be fixed on the
general credit issues, some Of the men,
bers faVorinS a tax ranging from l TO
8 per cent. according to the amount If
noets emitted and others expressing the
opinion that the variation should he be-
tween but ? and per cent.
1t is understood tonight although no
official announcement was made. that the
committees agreed today substantially on
the following propositions: The estab
liShment of a D per cent guarantee fund
for the redemption of the notes of failed
banks and for other purposes; the amount
of general credit notes to be kept on re-
serve TO be the same percentage as that
Of deposits; and a limitations of all is
sues of currency 10y any bank 10 that of
its capital stock.
The imposition of tax on the currency
notes was the most troublesome of all to
settle A vote was taken on the question
yesterday. Today this action was recon-
sdered and several other votes were ia
ken. The final vote could not be aScer-
tanned tonight. but IL is said TO be in
favor of a graduated tax of very limited
range and small in amount. This vote, 1t
is said, may not finally dispose OF the
question. and it may come up for consid-
Grafton again tomorrow. During the de-
bate today some of the members thought
that graduated tax ranging from 2 to 8
per cent would meet all reasonable re-
Quirements. The discussion disclosed the
fact that the bankers are anxious to have
il known that their efforts to obtain the
sanction of congress to issue additional
currency in times of financial stress is not
for the purpose of making money, but
with a view to accommodating the pub
lie and that as soon as the demand has
ceased the emergency currency is to be
redeemed and cancelled.
