SUGAR TRUST MAY

Compromise of Big Suit May
Open the Way
LOOKS LIKE AN ADMISSION
Indications That Big Corporation Did
Not Dare Allow Its Case to
Reach Jury

Washington, June 10.-The action
of the Sugar Trust in compromising
the suit of the Pennsylvania Sugar
Refining Company in New York and
arguing to pay several millions to
nave the case dropped has already
renewed the demand here for Grim
inal prosecution of the sugar trust by
the government for violation of the
Sherman antitrust law in its dealings
with the Pennsylvania company.
The desire of the sugar trust to
compromise the case against Ii rather
than let 1t go to the jury was regard
ed as an indication that the govern
ment would now be practically com
PEELED to begin tne criminal action
against the trust, which it has sew
eral times heretofore refused to under
take. The compromise is regarded
generally as tantamount to a confes-
sion of guilt under the Sherman law.
At the department OF justice it was
said that il made the case look pretty
serious for the sugar trust. II devel-
oped that the department has been
keeping close watch of the progress OF
the case and the news Of the compro-
mise had been received with lively in

O'BR|EN ALL BUT
KNOCKED OUT
BY KETCHEL
Philadelphia Badly Beaten
When Fight Was Stopped
TWICE SENT TO THE MAT
Defeated PugiIist Was Groggy and
Unable to Defend Himself When
Referee lnterfered'

Philadelphia, June 10.-Stanley
Ketchel, the middlewelght champion
last night defeated Jack OBrien in
tne third round, thus accomplishing a
feat that Jack Johnson, the heavy
weight champion, failed to achieve in
six rounds some three weeks ago. The
fight was stopped in the second
minute of the third round after o.
Brien had been knocked down twice
in the second and once in the tnird,
and was almost unable to raise his
hands to defend himself.
The fight was a whirlwind affair
from start to finish. Ketchel went
after O'Brien from the tap of the
gong and showed that he was deter
mined to catch ais man and achieve a
knockout. He devoted his attention
to O'Brien's body until he had drawn
the latter's guard down, and then he
sent IN a crashing right in the second
round that scored the first knockout.
OBrien got up gamely, but went
down fat on his back few moments
later from a right and left on the
jaw This time ne struggled to his
feet at the count of six, and two
seconds later the gong rang.
The third and last round was brief.
Ketchel went in for a knockout. In
his anxiety to finish 1t quickly he was
wild, and many of his swings went
wide of the mark. Finally he cornered
O'Brien and sent in a left short-arm
blow on the jaw that about finished
O'Brien. O'Brien could not fall be-
cause ne was pinned in a corner He
crumpled upon the ropes and chung
TO Ketchel's neck desperately. Shaking
him loose, Ketchel sent in right and
left again that made O'Brien very
groggy. Then Referee McGuigan
seeing O'Brien's condition and wishing
to avert possible serious injury,
stopped the fight.

scoring. They had to earn their way
for everything.
It's the spirit of the play that
counts in baseball. Every Benning-
ton player was out to do his best and
the result was a to | victory.
It's seldom that batter runs the
circuit of the bases on single lnfleld
hit, but that's what Watson did yes
terday in the fourth inning.
Gay was certainly off in his decis-
ions on balls and strikes. The visi-
tors, however. appeared to be the
more fortunate in this respect than
Bennington. They kicked more siren
ously than Bennington for the rea-
son, perhaps, because they felt more
In tine mood
The spectators were generally
agreed that Wadsworth's long hit in
the opening inning was fair and that
Umpire Gays decision calling the ball
foul robbed Bennington of a three
Dagger and run. Prindle's three
sacker that followed put the crowd in
better state of mind
The only Tunnel Digger who could
do anything with Coreys delivery
was Second Baseman Genest. He Sc
cured tnree of the six hits. He is an
aggressive batter and went after the
bali with vicious swipe. His last
hit made in the eighth inning was the
only one that didn't figure in the scor-
ing for North Adams.
The only errors made by the home
team were excusable. One ground
hit to center field went over Bres-
settles head. TIE ball took a bad
bound just before it reached him and
the little center fielder couldn't reach
it. The infield ball that Bohanski
missed was also an erratic bounder
and had he got it the play would have
been star feature.

WILLIAM WARREN's WELCOME"
Concert by College Band viii Precede
Entertainment

Word has been received that the
cast for William Warren's Welcome"
under the expert direction of Prof.
Andrews is rehearsing daily, so that
the performance here will be more
finished than that given in Burlington
If such a thing is possible. A rumour
has reached our ears that some of the
patrons of the Bennington opera
house have made the serious mistake
of thinking this show an amateurish
production and so not worthy of their
attention. Nothing could be farther
from the trutn. The members of the
cast are all experienced actors having
engaged regularly under competent
instructors for three years. Ii was
the universal opinion of all at Bur-
lington that no play yet put on by
amateurs so closely Appropriated the
genuine professional flavor.
The first scene is said to be one of
the most beautiful garden scenes ever
shown on the stage. Realistic to the
last degree, are shown growing vines
clambering over fences. and snowy
white pergola against back ground
of green above which comes into full
glory and fades gradually to twilight,
as gorgeous and varied a sunset as
nature ever painted in the heavens.
The plot of the play hinges about
mistakes in Identification and mat
tiers become through acts one and
two so tangled that the clever olsen
tanglement which comes in the third
act proves perfect surprise in stage
craft. Every line is bristling with
wit, and the situations are every bit
as clever as the lines.
Those who anticipate attending
from out of town should not fail to
come in time to hear the concert
given by the band outside before the
performance. The full college band
will be here, and it should prove
worthy of note that this band was
characterized by the United States
Army Inspector, Captain Penn, as the
best student band in the United
States. The sale of seats is brisk.

BRANDON MAN SUES AGAIN
Mr.. Marsh Not Satisfied With ST.
Verdict Against Railroad

Rutland, June l0.--EdwGrd s. Marsh
of Brandon, an attorney at law, who
two years ago got verdict of 81 dam
ages In Rutland county court against
the Rutland railroad, the verdict be-
ing affirmed by the supreme court, has
surprised his fellow attorneys by fill
ing another suit dealing with the same
subject matter except for slight tech
nical changes.
Toe cause of the alleged damage is
a spur track which the Rutland rail
road built through his premises In
1902. Mr. Marsh alleges that the
commissioners appointed to appraise
the damage caused by the building of
the track ordered the railroad to build
suitable farm crossings but that it has
failed TO do this, so tnat he is incon-
venienced in getting to his pasture
He also charges that culvert built
under the track is too small and his
lands are flooded in consequence. He
appears as his own counsel in the case
which is returnable at the September
term of court.

CANADIAN LOCKS
IN 500 CANAL
WRECKED
Gates Rammed by Steamer
Which Went to Bottom
TWO OTHERS WERE DAMAGED
Crescent City and Assinibola Swept
Along by Flood-No Lives
Lost

Sault Ste. Marie, Mica, June TO-
The Canadian locks were wrecked
yesterday afternoon, the lower gates
being carried away while the steam
ers Assinabola and Crescent City
we're passing down through the ship
canal and the Perry G. Walker of the
Gilchrist feet was passing up. AS a
result the Walker, which rammed the
gates, has nole in her hull, the Cres-
cent City has foundered, and the AS
siniboia is damaged.
The accident, according to Capt
Mosher of the Walker, was due to the
failure of his engineer to obey orders
to back up Capt. Mosher says his
engineer started his engines ahead
instead. Repeated signals to back did
not produce results. and the captain
sent deckhand on the run for the en-
CINE room. Before the engines were
reversed the vessel had gathered too
much Roadway to stop. She smashed
into the gates, carrying one of them
down.
The Assiniboia and the Crescent
City were in the lock down-bound
when the Walker carried away the
lower gates, and the Captain of the
Assiniboia, the Canadian Pacific pas
senger steamer, which is now tied up
to the pier on the American side,
gave the first intelligent description
of the disaster.
I'VE were lying in the dock cham
Der tied up he said, land ready for
locking down. The Crescent City was
just entering the lock from above,
the upper gates, of course, being
open. The Walker was approaching
1 the canal from below. For some rea
| son the latter struck the lower gate
carrying 1t away. We were swept out
of the chamber at terrific speed by
the outrushing food, the Crescent
City hitting us twice as we rushed
down. Below the entrance we went
on the bank. So far as l can dis
cover we suffered no serious injury
The blows from the Crescent City
were both glancing ones and did not
do us great harm"
The Crescent City of the Steel fleet
less fortunate, stove a hole in her
bow and sank at the pier on the
American side of the river
