WILL ESCAPE PUNISHMENT
Attorney General Bonaparte Doubts
if Trust Magnates Will Be
Given Striped Clothes.

Baltimore. Feb. AFTER having de-
clined TO express his views on the re-
cent message sent to congress by Pres
ident Roosevelt. and also on the speech
delivered by Governor Hughes of New
York. United States Attorney General
Charles j. Bonaparte tonight dictated
the following for the Sun:
There is one matter, however, about
which I can speak with knowledge: If
great clusters of corporations such as
the Standard Oil company. the tObac-
co trust, the POWDER trust and our
well known railroad system, are not
TO be punished by fines imposed on
convicted corporations, this means that
in ninety-nine cases out of 100 they
will not be punished at all. 1t is often
possible to obtain legal proof on which
20 convict the corporation when it win
be altogether impossible to obtain evil
dence to satisfy jury against any one
of its superior officers. This statement
may seem a little strange to persons
inexperienced in criminal law, but a
lawyer who has to enforce such
statutes as the anti trust laws Will
soon learn its TRUTH

OGDEN ICE HOUSE BURNED
Loss About $4,000, With One-Third
Insurance-Three Men Observed
Running From the Scene.

Fire destroyed the large ice house be-
longing to Samuel Thomas and Bernard
S. Stone. located just west of the Ogden
canyon sanitarium, shortly after 3 o clock
yesterday afternoon. The loss is esti-
mated at 5000, in addition to what ice
was destroyed. About $1,000 insurance
was carried on the building.
The origin of the fire is mystery, but
ii is generally believed to have been the
work of incendfaries. This belief is
borne out by the fact that just before
the flames burst from the building three
or four men were seen running from the
place. During the previous cold snap
1900 tons of ice was stored in the build
ing. The damage to this cannot be es-
timated at this time The alarm was re-
ceived at the central fire station at sos
o'clock and the fire department respond
ed. On account of the great distance of
the building from the center of the city,
the fire had almost burned itself out by
the time the firemen reached the scene.
The house will likely be rebuilt at once
and if the present cold spell holds on a
day or two longer it will be refilled with
out much trouble.
Shortly after o'clock yesterday morn
ing fire was discovered in the blacksmith
shop of Anderson & Larsen on Twenty
fourth street The fire department put
out the blaze. The loss amounted to but
s25. The EccleS Lumber company's yard
adjoinS the blacksmith shop and but for
the prompt action of the firemen the fire
would have been disastrous.

diate supervision of DIR. A. T. Baker,
intendent Lamb. DR.. Baker said today
that he would not allow Thaw TO have
liquor and tobacco unless his condition

Thaw brought a large sum of money
with him TO the hospital. but, finding
he would not be allowed its custody,

turned ii over to his counsel. During
the week provision will be made by the
family for special meals and table deli
cacies for Thaw, the money being
placed in the hands of the authorities.

At o'clock this afternoon DR.. Britton
D. Evans of Morris Plains, n. j., and
Dr. Smith Ely Jeffe, of New York,
arrived at the hospital. They
were employed by the defense in both
trials of Harry Thaw and, while both
evaded questions regarding their pres
ence here, it is said they came at the in
