Charges Against Sugar Trust
Up to Cabinet.
PAID TO SECURE IMMUNITY
Concern Said to Have Made LARGE
Contributions to Campaign Funds Of
Both Old Parties and Thus ESCAPED
Prosecution-Gravest Offenses De.
clared to Be outlawed by Statute OF
Limitations.

New York, Nov. 17.-When Presi
dent Taft and the cabinet in Washing.
ton took up for discussion the propo
sition of how to crush the sugar trust
Attorney General Wickersham pre-
scented a report compiled by Henry l..
stimson, special acting deputy attor.
ney general, setting forth the crimes
he expects to prove the combination
guilty of. It is said that this report
declares the American Sugar Refining
company has crushed it's rivals by
sheer weight Of money; that it cor.
rupted government inspectors without
limit; bribed leading employees Of op
position companies to detail the bust
ness Of their companies to the trust:
contributed to the campaign funds Of
all parties prior to the last presiden.
tial campaign so that national chair.
men and committees were under obi.
cations and finally, that it, by means
OF a secret understanding with the
Spreckels interests in California, ap-
portioned the sugar trade of the coun-
try so that the Independent trade has
been wiped out with two exceptions.
But-and here is the real reason
why the cabinet discussed the matter
most of this alleged law-breaking is
covered by the statute of limitations
Very Little Legal Proof.
"There is plenty of moral proof of
guilt since that time," Stimson is re.
ported to have declared, "but very lit
tie that could be considered legal, or
that would be admitted at a criminal
trial."
And this is what the cabinet must
decide. It must go over the evidence
that Stimson and his agents have Sc
cured and then must decide what form
of prosecution will be likeliest to re-
suit in real punishment to the men
responsible.
Business men are wondering what
will result from the congressional in
vestigation which is believed inevita-
BILE and which will certainly trace
back to the day of the first American
Sugar Refining company's incorpora-
ton. It is a certainty, that both Of
the big political parties will be in
volved. The administrations of Grover
Cleveland, Benjamin Harrison, Cleve-
land again, William Mckinley and also
Of Theodore Roosevelt, will be brought
into the limelight. These presidents
will not be smirched, but prominent
members of their cabinets will be
shown to have been very close to the
sugar trust officials and have much to
explain if the opinion of old-timers in
the "street" goes for anything.

at St. Michaels. from the New Willard
Hotel, in this city, signed by Z. B. Wei
nngton. At the hotel this morning no
information could be obtained as to any
person known as +. 3. wellington.
There was no record of such person
having been al the hotel as a guest or
in any other capacity within the last
month. The hotel manager states that
it is a common thing for people who
are not guests 10 go to the hotel writ
ing room and use the stationery. They
also stated that inquiries had been
made at the hotel regarding Emuett
Roberts because some of the hotel tcw-
els were found in his house.
It is not unusual for guests TO walk

said, the losses each year from this
source being heavy TO every hotel in
the country. Roberts was not known to

that occurred in the launch Saturday
evening. and told of his intention to

Roberts wrote this letter when he
found that all avenues of escape were
being closed against him, and he wanted
to make sure that the facts concern
ing the death of Mrs. Woodill would be
given to the world.

Stock Exchange, last summer and in
August of last year was arrested in
Chicago on charge Of obtaining
money under false pretenses. At the
time of his arrest, he had $4,000 in his
clothing
Eastman was indicted on two charges
of larceny and was released under 81
300 bail. 1t was alleged that he left
Liabilities Of more than $4,000.
As soon as the death of Eastman be-
came an established fact the interest
shifted at St MichaeTs, where the in
quest was held, and il was here that
States Attorney Turner finally and def
initely determined that Eastman had
killed himself not, as at first report
ed, that he had been killed by bullets
fired by members of the posse
Little Chance To Escape.
And IL was here. too. through the testi-
mony Of witnesses, that the facts re-
garding the long chase after Eastman
were developed. and II became known
exactly how he had met his death. It
was shown that all day yesterday a
dozen different posses of Talbot county,
stirred by the news of the tragedy en-
acted in their county, had searched high
and low for the murderer.
Never once was IL admitted that East
man, or Roberts. as he was then known,
had left the county Always the au-
thorities and the members of the posses
some of the numerous creeks Most
confident of all were the posses sent out
10 scOur the highways and byways Of
Harris creek. These posses searched
every nook and corner and watched
every possible avenue of escape.
The watch was rewarded shortly after
midnight when John william McQuay
who lives four miles down Harris
Creek, heard the splash of oars as
though a boat were being rowed past
his house. he looked up and down the
creek, but heard nothing but the ryth-
mical stroke of the oars as they
thought a weary man was handling
them. He called out but got no an
-swer and socn the sounds slowly died
away as the boat made its way up the
creek.
Rushing to his telephone he called
the St Michael's exchange and urged
that aid be sent to his home at once
as he was certain Roberts or Eastman
had passed by. The telephone operator
1rantically rang the call Of Justice VIII
ley and Deputy Sheriff Mortimer and
told them what Mr.. McQuay said
sailed forth.
Quarry Run To Earth.
Reaching McQuay's farm the party
began a careful search for the fugitive.
Mr. McQuay put the party right.
Dividing forces one party proceeded
up the creek IN a small skif while the
other worked its way up the shore along
the creek. Through marsh and glen and
half wading in water part of the time
the little party pushed forward for four
miles toward the head Of the creek.
In their eagerness TO get up stream
the party passed the wornOut fugitive,
who at this time was pushing his boat
along with one oar. He was standing
in the stern of the boat, and was taking
long, slow strokes, pushing the boat
along, and so quietly that he made prac-
ticaliy no noise The creek is shallow
at this point. and the mud today showed
where ne took each stroke, and how
weary he must have been as he pushed
on In the hopes OF reaching Mcdaniel.
where he hoped to steal a team out Of
the stable of George B. Taylor, with
whom he had boIrded. and which he
knew was never locked.
