RECEIVERS FOR

Washington, July Sit is understood
that the department OF justice has adopt
ed a new and highly important plan I'm

the so-called Tobacco trust. After asking

will ask the court. II. in its judgment the
interests and the facts as disclosed de-
mand such action. that receivers be ap-
pointed TO take charge OF the business
and administer 1t in harmony with law.
Such a course, Il is said II adopted,
would require the receiver taking charge
OF a corporation TO administer its busi-
ness with a view TO the gradual disinte-
grafton OF such monopoly. that is TO say,
such receiver in administering such bust
ness would from time 10 time be expected
10 sell and dispose OF the different prop
erty units composing such monopoly in
such way as to preserve all the essen
tial rights OF the stockholders at the same
time ultimately give TO the general pub
lie the benefit OF competition between sep
arate and independent corporations or
business.
1t is understood that this plan has never
before been adopted in the prosecution
OF trusts. but IL Is more than likely that
the same plan will be followed In dealing
with the so-called Powder trust and suoh
other trusts II the peculiar facts In cor>
nection with each would justify such ac-
ton.

Monsieur MenaEe, liqutdator for the

could not sell the converts privately. the
law decreing that the sale must be public.
The sale is set for the end of August.
the reserve price for Fontvrault being
about six million francs and Solesmas
about four million.
The probable reason why Mr. Morgan
desires the purchase Is the existence in

tain English kings and queens. while
Solesrnes contains a superb library valued
at million francs and a series OF splen-
did wood carvings.

London. July 9.-Soclety is pleased and
surprised over the announcement OF the
engagement OF Sir Conan Doyle and Miss
Jean Leclxie. Until the news was made
public Il was thought that the young
woman and Sir Conan were merely friends
and there was nothing serious in the
author bachelors attention To the future
Lady Doyle.
Sir Conan, like Sir Thomas Upton and
Sir Thomas Dewar. was considered a con-
firmcd bachelor, TO whom Cupid would be
ever a stranger. That the novelist had at

But TOW that IL Is so, and he is soon to
become a benedict, his friends are con-
graduating him and wondering why they
did not suspect II all along.
