II was not known in Washington last

nomination will have on the prosecution
OF the sugar trust cases. Mr.. Stimson
has been the chief counsel in those
cases. The work of recovering the duties
our OF which the government has been
defrauded had practically been pushed to
its conclusion. although there are a few
proceedings still pending.
1t is the intention of the Department of
Justice, however. to file new suit within
a few days against the American Sugar
Refining Company for It's dissolution un-
der the Sherman antitrust law.

predicament that Col Roosevelt will

Yes" said Gen Frederick Funston at

that after being two hours in the hotel
Baltimore at Kansas City last Monday I
paid my bill and walked out after notify
ing the hotel that I did not propose 20
step at a house where bellhops were at
tired in the insignia of United States
army captains.
I deplore that the incident has be-
come public. and I admit that I might
have been a trihe hasty, yet 1 think I
was right
! had always been friendly with the
hotel people, and hoped that the incident
would be dropped. and felt sure that the
management would change the uniform.
IL is no more than natural that an army
officer should take pride In his uniform
and resent IL when the uniform is aped "
Other army officers at Fort I,eayen-
worth are in sympathy with the action
taken by Gen. Funston. and It is under
stood the hotel In question IS to be IA
booed by officers unless the attire of Ire
bellhops is changed.
