POWDER TRUST PROSECUTION.
Bill of Complaint to Be Filed at Gin
cinuati

The bill of complaint which will be filed
by the Department of Justice in the United
States circuit court at Cincinnati against
the so-called powder trust is nearly COM
pleted and 1t is not unlikely that it will be
forwarded to the United States district at
torney at Cincinnati for presentation to the
court within the next week or ten days.
Inasmuch. however, as this bill follows
along the same general lines as that filed
at st. Louis against the Standard Oil Com
pany which the company is now seeking to
have amended, it is possible at least that
the fling of the bill against the powder
companies may be delayed until the ques-
tons involved in controversy in the Stand
ard Oil cases are judicially determined. 1t
is not thought that in any event the delay
will extend beyond two weeks
