SUGAR TRUST lEAGUED WITH MORMONC CHURCH Announced That This Will be Proved by Investiga- ton of Congress- This
 Winter.
Special from United Press,

Cleveland Nov. 26--A Washington despatch to the Cleveland Press to- day says: .-The Mormon church and the Sugar Trust have been for several years in partnership and they together control &5 per cent of the beet sugar industry in the United States These facts will be proved by an investiga- ti0n to be made by Congress during the coming winter by the production of the minutes of the Sugar Trusts directors meetings covering a period of seven years. The minutes were se- cured through a former director of the trust and the documents are now in vault i'm Washington. They will be produced when needed"
 Tt is unnecessary to say that the in- side view of the sugar trusts opera tions furnished by the stenographic notes of the board of directors will ex- pose the 0parati0Ds of this industrial trust in a way which may legitimately be called sensational
 It will show why Senator Aldr1ch turned over to Senator Shoot. of Utah. the management of the sugar sched- uieS on the floor of the Senate last winter when the tarfn act was under consideration
 It will show how AIdrfch has acted ms representative of the sugar trust in the United States Senate. Tt will show that mo beet sugar factories have been started during the past live years ex- cept upon the approval of the sugar trust
 It will show the connection of var ious prominent fnanciers and politi- clans with the criminal operations by which the customs service has been Hheateds secret rebates secured. and the antitrust law violated Tt will show what was done by the sugar trust fin a vain effort to head ofr the investigation started by President Roosevelt when he appointed Special Agent Parr and by Collector Loeb
 It will show conciusively that Ald- rich has been the political sponsor as we'll a& the business partner of the sugar trust for years
 The&e are a few things which are at the disposal of any committee which mav dhair@ honestly 70 investigate the corrupt activities 0f the sugar trust
