EFFORT BEING MADE TO GET
DEALERS OF ALL THE LARGE
CITIES UNDER THE CONTROL
CT BIG CONCERNS.
TWO OR THREE OF THE LARGE
cCRPOFATIoNs NOW coNTRoL
MaMY STORES ALL OVER THE
COUNTRY.

! The proposition of the American
Druggist Syndicate to establish a
drug store trust, embracing all the
| larger cities and towns from Maine to
California. in order to acquire control
of the retail drug business of the
country. either by purchase or by CO.
operation, is being watched with in
terest by the druggists of Brunswick.
1t appears to be ne intention OF the
synd cate to fight the cLain store .sys-
| tenn in so far as it applies TO the drug
! business by giving its members II e
SUPP rt of the organization in matters
OF credit and cheap buying. The In
diyidual druggists, it is said, will not
be required to lose their identity as
such. 1t appears to he the intention
of the promoters to issue capital stock
which may be taken up by the pro-
prietors of the stores coming Under the
control of the combine.
Investigation, discloses, however,
that the fight is one of the larger pro-
positions than appears on the surface.
Apparently it is four -cornered COM
bat. all four of the combines fighting
for the control of the situation. The
fight has now progressed as far south
as Washington, and representatives
/ of any of the four concerns interested
may appear in Brunswick within the
next sixty days. All four combina-
tions appear ambitious to usurp the
fields occupied by the others, each
with the intention of enlarging its al
ready existing chain cf stores Intil
the drug trade is dominated.
The four concerns in the fight
according to a Brunswick druggist
are the American Druggists, Syndicate
represented by 10000 stores in the
United States; the United Drug Com
pany, better known as Rexall Com
pany, with the Liggett Company as an
ally and auxiliary, represented by only
5000 stores. but backed by enormous
capital; the Kicker Company, which is
headed by Cobb. formerly with the
American Tobacco stores, generally
believed to be auxiliary of the Amer
lGdI VII lhC III 81 vi eiiS JNNi
in order to devote his undivided time
to the drug business, and the Hege
man Corporation, generally conceded
to be an offspring and to have the fl
nancial backing of the Standard Oil
Company.
The fight has been precipitated, ii
is understood by the recent activity
of the Kicker Company, which, with
twenty stores under its control
in New York, has jumped within the
last two months south to Washington
and west to Denver and issued
threat looking to the invasion of the
South in sending cut literature tt
their representatives in the cities ant
putting up their fences for great bat
tie for supremacy.
The Brunswick druggists are moi
proposing to do any talking until the
lightning has struck in this vicinity.

HEAVY, DARK CLOUD CAUSED
MANY TO BE FRIGHTENED

Daylight was almost turned into
darkness early yesterday after
noon by heavy, dark cloud, which
oyerhlng the city for some time. The
cloud was a very dangerous look
ing one and caused many people to
wonder whether it meant a cyclone,
and earthquake or some other kind
of a serious weather disturbance.
1t seems, however, that the cloud
contained only rain,. as it was follow
ed by colbinuouss down pour which
lasted practically all the afternoon
and evening.

THE COMPANY ARRIVED LATE,

And Members Seemed Somewhat Fa
tigued from the Trip
"The Time, the Place and the Girl
was presented at tAe Grand last night
Probably on account of the inclement
weather, the audience was not as large
as is usually the case when a musical
comedy is presented.
The company made jump yester-
day from Augusta to Brunswick, and
it was late when the aggregation ar
rived, consequently the curtain did
not go up until O'clock. The trip
also seemed to have fatigued some OF
the performers.
The attraction was along the usual
line of musical comedies, with num-
ber of pretty chorus girls, who Wore
pretty costumes and changed them Of
ten and quickly, one or two catchy
airs and few jokes, one or two OF
which, however, were not well re-
ceived by the audience.

THE WALL STREET MARKET
Active Selling Pressure Carried the
Prices Downward.

New York, March i4.-Active sell
ing pressure in the opening dealings
in stocks today carried the prices
downward sharply all through the list.
The most active stock nearly all
showed losses at point.
Depressing influences in the morn
ing stock market were revived. The
support which checked the decline is
attributed to the banking interest en-
gagged in the fiotation of the new bond
issues. The tone OF the market at
noon was dull and uncertain. Bonds
were irregular.
