POWDER TRUST IN
BIC SCHEME

CHICAGO. Jan. "A dispatch to the
Chronicle quotes the New York World
OF today as saying:
The powder trust. protected by a
prohibitive tariff ana rolling up mil
lions in profit in it's supply TO the
United States Government clone, will
on January employ every possible
means to gain control OF the National
Rife Association. and If successful can
dictate the character Of the anmuni-
tion for every State military organiza-
ton in the Union. The occasion will
be the election of a president Of the
association, to be held in the Seventy
first Regiment Armory.
Bird w. Spencer Of Passaic, general
inspector Of rife practice in the State
Of New Jersey, incumbent. is a candi-
date for reelection. James A. Drain
OF Olympia, who is his opponent, is a
candidate OF the trust
Spencer's election means the throt-
Ting OF what has been pronounced by
Independent powder manufacturers to
be an infamous conspiracy, which
makes commerce of patriotism and sells
its product abroad for its sole profit.
The National Rife Association was
incorporated in the State of New York
in 1871 It's purpose was to encour-
age and promote rife practice in the
several States and Territories. From
July ], 1905. to July ], 1906, the trust
sold TO the Government 5,947 $50 pounds
Of smokeless powder. The cost OF
manufacture at the mills was 80 cents
q pound. The price charged TO the
Government was 20 cents az pound so
in that one item alone the approximate
profit was SS cents a pound. Deducting
freight charges this aggregated S2,215,-
562.95.
Three hundred thousand pounds Of
powder for 32-caliber weapons were
produced at a net cost OF "A cents a
pound and sold at S4h cents; 10000
blank fire cartridges. costing Al cents.
at 90 2-I9 cents and 1850 pounds for
the 3s-caliber, costing SO cents. at 941k
The total profit approximately footed
up S2.34S.374, which is greater than any
profit ever derived by any seller OF any
product or staple sold in one year to
the Government in the history OF the
republic. and the monopoly carrying
on this business was at the same time
contracting with foreign nations to
furnish ammunition with which they
could attack American merchantmen
on the high seas
The powder trust is legally known as
the Dupont international Powder Com
pany, organized under the law of the
State of Delaware. with a capitalization
OF $4,000. 600. The corporation is con-
trolled by the E. I. Dupont-Denemours
Powder Company, which was incorpor-
ated in New Jersey May 10. 1903. for
the purpose OF consolidating the vari-
Gus explosive manufactures controlled
by the Dupont interests.
At present practically all the sub
sidiary companies are controlled by
the main corporation, either through
ownership OF stock or ownership Of
property. The authorized capital IS
$4,000. 600 at the par value OF 500.
The trust has absorbed all the powder
manufacturing interests save the
Buckeye Powder Company OF Peoria,
H., OF which Robert S. Waddell- is
president. and who has issued an ad-
dress TO the President OF the United
States and TO the Senators and Repre-
sentatives in Congress on what he
terms the powder conspiracy"

NJ 'ENERNEY FIGHTS
REHEAR|NG

According to the contention of Gar
ret w. McEnerney, the law firm of
Page, McCutchen & Knight acted with
out legal right when. as amicus curiae,
it filed a petition in the Supreme Court
for a rehearing of the case involving
the San Francisco title law that bears
his name. Briefly, in his answer filed
yesterday, he sets forth: only parties
to the record may file a petition for a
rehearing; persons appearing as amici
curiae have not that right"
The firm was not a party to the
original action, which was brought only
for the purpose of establishing the
validity of the act. AS interested al
torneys. however. the members filed a
brief in the action supporting the ex-
ponents of the McEnerney act.
The petition for a rehearing of the
case, which was only filed a few days
ago. must receive the attention of the
Supreme Court by Monday night, ac-
cording to the limitations placed on
the court by law.
