tions and seventeen individuals con-

The petition alleges companies and
individuals named have entered into
an unlawful combination to form a
monopoly in the manufacture and
sale of gun powder. An injunction
has been asked for.
The court is asked to determine
whether public interest will be bet
ter served by the appointment of re-

with a view to bringing about con-
ditions in trade and commerce which
will be harmonious with the law. The
prayer in this respect is identical

The defendants it is alleged, have
complete monopoly of the produc-
tion of the manufacture of smoke

a monopoly on 95 per cent of the pro-

Neither has been identified, nor

Examination of the bodies of the
strangler's victims reveals that both
had been mutilnted. This leads to
the belief that both murders were
committed by the same person an,l
that the murderer had an insane de-
