AN UNLAWFUL COMBINATION.
"Carey Club" Alleged to Be Associa-
ton for Restraint of Trade.

Boston. May 5.-That voluntary
organization called the Carey Club"
but known to the shoe last trade as
the Last Association has no right
to certain patents and in addition that
the club which is claimed to control
rs per cent. of the last business of the
country, is an unlawful combination
the purpose of which is to restrain
trade and to control territory and
prices are the features of the answer
filed today by the New England Last
Co. of Salem. Mass, in the suit
brought against it in the United
States district court by William A.
Fraser of Detroit, for an alleged in
fringement of patents on hinged lasts
The defendant company also claims
that Fraser is an agent for the club.
that the organization compels its
members to open their books to its
representatives at any time. that an
assessment is levied for defensive pur-
poses and that certain patents ar
held for purposes OF intimidation.
The answer further states that the
club was organized six years ago and
that it's present directors are: Fred
Drew of Brockton. Mass; f. c.
Wright of Campello. Mass; E. o.
Krempler of Detroit and Messrs.
Woodruff of New York; Van Pelt of
Detroit and Crawford of Cleveland
The patents referred to in the Fras-
or suit, the defendant company claims,
were obtained without consideration,
that no royalty for their use has ever
been paid and that they are for the
use now of the public. The suit will
not be reached in the court until fall.

mond nominated Gov johnson for both
his terms as governor of Minnesota and
both times Johnson swept normally
Republican state into the Democratic
column.
'Unquestionably,'' he said yesterday,
johnson will carry a large proportion
of the Southern States. Even in Ala
bama, which convention will be May
A. and among whose people friends of
johnson have done little or no work
until within the last few days, we have
found surprisingly large johnson fol-
lowing. This is particularly true of bus
mess men.
Il have before me now the copy of
an interview given out by Walker
Percy, one Of the leading attorneys and
politicians in Birmingham, in the 9Th
District of that state.
Mr.. Percy points out that Johnson
is winner, not a loser of political
campaigns. that he has no crude
theories OF government ownership to
apologize for and that his strength in
the Northwest and West is unques-
tionable.
Business men and other authorities
in the state are out with similar de-
clarations. l merely mention this to
show how strong Johnson is in states
where no particular fight has been
made for him.
There will be a fight to have the
convention take action favorable to
johnson and | believe it will do so. If
it does not. it will demonstrate at any
rate even in a state claimed so con-
tidently by Bryan that johnson is
backed by large following.
when you find such a situation as
that you can easily recognize the alb
surd position of those who say Bryan
will carry every state in the South
The fight in most of the states is now
on definitely. Mr.. Johnson's friends
are sure of victory

A SERIOUS CRISIS
In the Affairs of Leading Russian
Sugar Manufactures.

st. Petersburg. May 5.-The Rus
sian sugar industry centering at Kiev
is passing through a serious crisis
which already has resulted in the sus-
pension of payments by two of the
great manufacturing and refining
firms, Charitonenko & Sons with
liabilities of $75OOOOO and the Cher
kassky Refining Co with liabilities of
$4,000,0O0.
The State Bank has come to the as
slstance Of Charitonenko & Sons and
probably will do the same thing for
the Cherkassky Company in so much
as the extension of the crisis under
the present financial stringency of
Russia might entail the gravest re-
suits.
The trouble in the sugar industry is
due in large measure to restriction of
exports, the production is far in ex
cess of the Russian market.
