TOLEDO TRUSTS HARD hit
MEN AND CONCERNS IN BUILD
ING TRADES ARE INDICTED.
Leaders in the Business ard financial
circles Of City Accused Of
Conspiracy.

Toledo, O., April 22.-The grand
jury's investigation into the alleged
trusts blamed for the increased cost
of building operations and high rents
in Toledo resulted Saturday in the re-
turn of 245 indictments against 90
leading business men and the follow
ing combinations: Toledo Master
Plumbers association, Toledo Brick
Supply company, Toledo Lumber
mans bureau of credit, National Sup
ply company and Toledo Supply COM
pany.
The indictments charge conspiracy
in restraint of trade. The wide scope
of the investigation and the great
number of persons accused make the
grand jury's report more sensational
than the ice trust indictments. Some
of the men named in the indictments
are among the most prominent bust
ness men in the city. Several of them
are not actively engaged in the bust
nesses which have been under inves
tigation, but are interested Indirectly
and are included in the charges made
against the firms.
In the list of lumbermen and brick
men indicted are the names of men
high in local financial circles. The
head of the local lumber trust is said
to be the Toledo Lumbermen's Credit
association, with offices in the Splitter
building. This trust is alleged to
have had complete control of the lum-
Der market, raising the prices when it
saw fit and compelling outside con
Germs to sell only to them, making it
Impossible for the independent dealer
to get material outside the trust.
The Toledo Brick Supply company,
alleged to be an illegal combination
of brick manufacturers in restraint
of trade, is declared to have been or
ganized for the purpose of controlling
the price of the product of local brick
manufacturers. Since the passage of
the Valentine antitrust law it has
changed it's form, but Prosecutor
Wachenheimer expects to show that
it has continued to monopolize the
local brick business.
The National Supply company. the
only corporation indicted deals ex-
tensively in plumbing supplies, oil
wells, machinery, and all manner of
plumbers and carpenters tools.

SHORTAGE IN THE u. OF w.?
Rumor of 100000 Discrepancy in the
University's Accounts.

Madison, Wis, April ia start
ling report that a discrepancy of
100000 exists in the accounts of the
University of Wisconsin was circulat-
ed at the capitol Thursday.
Several months ago the university
regents put a New York expert to
work on the books. Recently the ex-
pert made report to the regents.
President Van Hise said Thursday
that there was absolutely no suspi-
cion of any misappropriation of funds,
but admitted that there has been fail
ure properly to charge up certain in
vestments to their proper accounts
When the report was circulated at
the capital President Van Hise i'm
mediately came to the state house in
person. He explained as best he
could the details of the alleged $780,
900 discrepancy.
The matter probably will be investi-
gated ty the legislature. The univer-
sity affairs were investigated by a
special Legislative committee last
year, but this alleged discrepancy es-
capped the notice of the investigators.

morning the steamer La Provence,

passed through a storm which, the
officers of the ship say, has rarely

began to break over the decks, though
no rain fell. Capt. Alix thinks the

making of the type which prevails in

the road drag and graders and asur-

added that a good many now young

Professor Forbes Of the Illinois ex
pertinent station has been making some
interesting experiments relative to the
corn root worm. He has found that the
larvae Of the worm are placed on the
roots of the corn plant by the red ant
and, further, that by treating the seed
before planting with solution made
by mixing one part oil of lemon to nine
parts of wood alcohol at the rate OF
three ounces Of solution to a gallon Of
seed the ants will keep away from the
hill Of corn to large extent. After six
weeks treated rows had one-ninth as
many aphides on the roots as the I'M
treated, while at the end of ten weeks
the treated corn stood "a per cent high

We once knew man Of the nervous
type who claimed it was absolutely
impossible for him to go to sleep if
there was anybody up in the house.
However, he would sleep just as
peacefully if he supposed they had
gone to bed whether they had really
done so or not. A habit Of this kind
is one that should be broken up early
in life, for if it is encouraged by one
self or others it is likely to result in
his becoming an all around nuisance.
