H g. -
Only Few Complaints We're Heard,
:. Notwithstanding Dissolution lIIl i
Of Company. e
Although the Consumers Ice & Fuel

Although the Consumers Ice & Fuel
Company dissolved on short notice
and declined to deliver ice to those
who had formerly been its patrons
little inconvenience was suffered yes
terday in the city by those who de-
sired ice and no complaints were
heard regarding non-delivery. The
of persons engaged in the de-
livery of ice during the day was suffi-
cient to handle the trade and II the
delivery system continues as 1t did
yesterday there will be but little kick
ing over changed conditions.
The dissolution of the company and
the victory of the county solicitor in
bringing about the breaking up OF the
alleged trust without resorting to
prosecution were subjects of discus
sion in every quarter throughout the
day and nothing but words of com,
were heard for Solicitor
Loftin and those who have been In
strumental. in causing the company TO
dissolve. ......
One of the questions now being agi-
tated is whether or not the companies
will reduce the price of ice to the
Jacksonville price as demanded by
the solicitor. According to the
statement of the latter the factories
have until. his return from his vaca-
ton in which to reduce the price, and
if they do not it is believed the soil
citor will prosecute as he has stated.
It was stated yesterday that the
ice men would hold a consultation
within few days when all OF the par
ties reach. the city at which the ques-
ton will be discussed.
