CONTROLLED TOBACCO TRADE.
Monopoly Everywhere, Save in Four
Foreign Lands,

NEW YORK. November %. - 1.-THE
American Tobacco Company at one time
controlled the entire tobacco trade of the
world. with the exception of France,
Italy, Turkey and Austro-Hungary. where
the tobacco trade is a government mo-
nopoly." This statement was made yester-
day by W. H. Harris. vice president and
chairman OF the board Of directors of the
American Tobacco Company. during a
hearing in the case of the United States
against the American Tobacco COMPANY
and others before United States Commits
sioner Shields.

markets came about through consolida-
tons with foreign producers and manu-
lac turers. The principal companies ac-
CURED by the American Tobacco Company
abroad were the Ogden Company, Linn
tied. and the Imperial Tobacco Company
both of which were British companies
but did large business in other quarters
of the world.
Later the Ogden and Imperial COM
panies were consolidated under the name
OF the Brttish-American Tobacco Com.
pany. The American Tobacco Company
and the British-American Tobacco Com.
pany each agreed not to enter the others
territory.

consists of an ordinary burner and supply
pipe. Attached TO the latter directly over
the burner, is a rmoke bell. connected
to an electric circuit. The stop cock reg
ulating the flow of gas is at the end of
the smoke bell. AS soon as the stop
cock is turned on the electric circuit is
closed and bell or indicator located at
any desired point is operated to call atten-
ton to the fact that the gas has been
turned on. When the gas is lighted, the
heat causes a break in the circuit and
the bell stops. If the gas should be ac-
cidentally or Intentionally extinguished by
other means than the closing of the stop
cock the absence of heat closes the Cir
cult and causes the bell to ring.

not mentally sound: she could not think
logically nor reason coherently, especially
on the subject of Brown and the children
She was a monomaniac on that subject -
Mr.. Turner conducted the cross-exam-
ination and in answer to the direct ques-
ton regarding Mr.. Bradley's sanity MI
kaighn said that in 1903. when he first in
terviewed her. Mrs. Bradley was not open
to reason at all. she was madly in love
with that man. She worshiped him."
do YOU think her mind was diseased
on that subiect?"
ut was a little colored on that sub
ject.''
At this reply Mrs Bradley smiled broad
ly.
AT any time did you regard her as
dangerous?"
"She was at that stage that thought
she would become dangerous and so told
Senator Brown. l told him that she was
so mentally affected that she was liable to
become violent and might do him harm"
Had Threatened Suicide.
After she threatened suicide Mr.. Kaighn
told Mr.. Brown that he must do some
thing. Brown had grown very pale. He
had told Brown that he must go to see
the woman. adding that by so doing he
would save life.
Albert R. Barnes. assistant attorney
general of Utah. testified to appearing for
both Brown and Mrs. Bradley at the
times of their arrest for adultery.
After Brown had been acquitted, the
witness said. he endeavored to persuade
Mrs. Bradley to withdraw her plea Of
guilty.
She said that Brown was the father Of
her children" Mr.. Barnes testified; that
if he should deny their paternity she
would openly confess the whole matter.
1t was almost impossible for me to con-
vince her as a matter of duty to herself
and children to withdraw the plea OF
guilty"
said: Mrs. Bradley was very much
agitated woman. She would sigh and
moan and walk up and down and wiring
her hands"
In Regard to Divorce.
Mr.. Barnes also said that Mrs. Bradley
had consulted with him in regard to a
divorce from her husband in 1905. after
the death of Mrs. Brown. saying that
Brown had requested her to institute pro-
ceedings. He had told Brown of the re-
quest and the latter had not seemed
pleased.
Afterward Mrs Bradley discovered that
Brown did not want her to have decree
and seemed very unhappy and disap-
pointed. He told of a conversation with
Mrs. Bradley in the spring Of 1906 in
which she told him that she was "about
to become a mother and that Brown had
given her 500 to have an operation per-
formed" 81 dissuaded her and leaving her
in my Office went and told Brown what
1 had done. When 1 returned to my
office told her what I had told Brown.
II told her that I told Mr.. Brown he
could not add this crime to the list Of
other crimes committed by him, and he
replied by assuring me that nothing
should be done.''
The witness was on the stand when
court, at 1907 O'Clock pm. was adjourned
until today.
