Paper Combine Surrenders Uncon- ditionally in the Suit Filed by
 Government at St. Paul.
COMPETITION WILL NOW BE RESTORED
The Action of the Attorneys in Aho"hs Judgment to be Entered Agaihs' .he Mills Forming the Combine IS Son'- pIete Victory for the United states an" will Result in Cheapening Paper.


 St. Paul, May 12.-The United states government Friday secured an uncon- ditional surrender in the United states circuit court before Judge SanDorn in the suit which the attorney general began on December 27,1904, to dissolve a combination between the Generai Paper company and 23 other defendants on the ground that an agreement hao been entered into by the defendants in restraint of interstate commerce.
 Attorney Kellogg for the govern ment, and Attorney Flanders, for the defendants, appeared before Judge Sanborn sitting as a circuit judge, and Mir. Kellogg moved that the mandate from the United States supreme court affirming the order that the witnesses must testify be filed.
 Judge Sanborn ordered the mandate filed.
 The witnesses then appeared be- fore the United States examiner and offered to testify. The defendants then withdrew their answer. MT. Kellogg announced that the government did not care to examine the witnesses and moved for decree in favor Of the government. Judge Sanborn ordered | that the decree be entered for the gov ernment for the relief prayed and that the decree should be settled on June It ! and the proceedings were adjourned. The three witnesses who refused | to testify, namely c. D. McNair or the Northwestern Paper company; A. C Bossard of the Itasca Paper company; and B. F. Nelson of the Hennepin Paper company paid into court the s1OO fine assessed against each for con- tempt of court for refusing to answer the questions put to them at former hearing.
 This is a complete victory for the government The price of paper al the time this suit was brought was | from s2.25 to $235 per cwt. The bring. ing of this suit already has had the effect of reducing the price of paper to about $1.S5.
 The result has been very beneficial to the newspaper publishers through. now be restored between the various mills.

 This action on the part of the con stituent companies of the paper trus terminates the litigation by the entr, of a judgment for all the government demanded in it's bill and is a complet' victory for the United States.

DISTRICT COURT CLERKS NOW 0N STRAIGHT
 SALARY

\ measure passed by thc last con. Yrcss. which K now effective, will re- suit in a considerable saving to the government in conducting the courts of this territory. says the Tucson Citizen. The measure places the court clerks on n salary. and does away with the fees. Each clerk is to receive n straight salary of $500 per year, and fees which formerly were given to the clerk must now be paid to Uncle Sam.
 This measure will result in the say. ing to the government of a number of thousands of dollars and will result in tho loss to clerks of an equal sum. In every court district in the territory the fees amounted to more than $3.5OO per year. In Judge Doan x district they were heaviest, as the wheels of justice are kept revolving continually there, owing to the large number of cases. The fees there amounted to about $l2.. 100. it is reported. The court clerk 's ofiiee here undcr the fee system was worth about s5OoO per year.

INITIATION OF KNIGHTS 0F COLUMBUS |S
 POSTPONED
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Owing to the unavoidable delay of R. F. Morrison, Grand Knight of Ya- vapai Council lO32, of the Knights of Columbus, who is now in New York, and will not return to Prescott before July 20, the initiation of new members which was to be held at Prescott tonight has been postponed to some time in August. The date has not yet been fixed.
 Mir. Morrison is the custodian of tho ritual, which contains the degree work, and no one else is allowed to handle them. which makes it impossible to hold the initiation on that day.
 X number of Phoenix boys were to have been initiated.
 Since the great convention in Los Angeles year ago last June the or. der has grown rapidly in the west, and within a few years no town of any size will be without a council. Plans are rapidly being put in motion to install a council of 15O members at Flagstaff next September. Arrange ments are also under way for an excursion to the Grand Canyon for the visiting members of the order.
