No Powder Monopoly

At the hearing of the defense in the
Government suit against the du Pont
Powder Company, commonly called the
Powder Trust, in New York on Wednes-
day, Pierre s. du Point, treasurer of the
company, told of the merger of the du
Pont and Latin & Rand Company, but
denied there was any attempt to monopo-
lize the powder business in the United
States.
One great reason for merging the com
panies, he declared, was the economy
that would result. He denied that there
was any destructive competitive wareiare
carried on by the du Pont company
against rival concerns.
Mr.. du Pont said his company had fur
nished the powder used in all the wars
of the United Seates and other countries
during the last century.
In 1902, he said, the company controlled
SO per cent. Of the black powder manu-.
featured in the United States, while A
per cent. was manufactured by concerns
that tile du Point Company and the Latin
& Rand Company controlled.

The Tomato Season Ended

The late tomato season closed last
week because of the heavy frost which
killed the vines. Many patches had an
abundance of fruit upon the vines which
would have continued to ripen for weeks.
There was a fair crop in this region, not
withstanding the dry weather. A larger
crop in Delaware and Maryland caused
the market price to get lower than for
years. For about eight years past the
market price has been better than the
contract price paid by the Gamers, but
those who grew tomatoes on the
market got the worst this year. The
contract price was $3.50 to $500 a tons.
The farmers in this region who grew
for the market got for most of their crop
10 cents a basket, equal to $500 a ton,
but many tomatoes we're sold for 8 cents
and some as low as 5 cents a basket.
The fruit was never better than this
year. Because of the dry weather the
fruit had less acid and was more solid
and meaty.
