ACTION TO DUST
SUGAR TRUST
Attorney Gen. Wickersham
Gives Orders to Dissolve
the Refining Monopoly.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 27-Or-
ders from the attorney general to
District Attorney Wise in New York
to smash the sugar trust have
gone out, and the action will be filed
there within a week.
An amended and much shorter
petition, though much more COM
prehensive in it's charges, has been
prepared after conference between
the attorney general, District Attor-
ney Wise, Special Attorney Stimson
and Mr.. McReynolds.
Says Law Is Violated.
The petition charges the sugar
trust" with violating the Sherman
antitrust law, and the court is
asked to dissolve the trust" and
issue an injunction restraining the
American Sugar Refining company
of New Jersey from voting the
shares of the subsidiary companies
pending the distribution of these
shares among the original owners.
The action will be in all respects
similar to that which resulted in the
smashing of the Standard Oil COM
pany in the United States Circuit
Court, and in a general way it re-
sembles the action against the to-
bacco trust.
Trusts Along Similar Lines.
1t is learned that an investigation
into the sugar trust develops that
all three of these concerns have been
organized and were operated along
parallel lines. AS in the case of the
Standard, the sugar trust" has op-
Grated through rebates, free storage
facilities, secret agreements and
criminal methods of crushing out
competition.
1t went through an earlier period
of its existence like the oil trust, re-
sulting in being overthrow by the
courts, whereupon, like the oil trust,
it organized a holding company I'M
der a New Jersey law, which has
since enjoyed practical monopoly
of the sugar refining business in the
United States.

DEAL DIRECT WITH
JAP ANESE
Americans Will Go to Toxic
for Redress for Wrongs
Done in Korea.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 27.-Re-
cent expansion of Japan from an is
land to a continental power through
the annexation of Korea, makes it
possible for the American and 9TH
er governments to deal directly with
Toxic in the securing of redress for
any wrongs committed on foreign
ers in the Korea.
The Japanese have now assumed
full responsibility for the protection
of foreign interests in Korea. In.
times past there have been numer-
Gus occurrences at Seoul and else
where in that country that necessi-
tated quick diplomatic representa-
tions.
Riots, massacres of Catholic
priests and other religious and po
litical agitations and attacks upon
United States vessels and reprisals
by United States forces were among
these occurrences.
1t has been some years since Chin
Fom vi, the last Korean minister
to Washington, closed the legation
here for all time and went his way
toward the far east under instruc-
tons of the foreign office of Seoul.
The latest reports received here
estimate the revenues of Korea for
the present fiscal years at $20,96O,-
6SS and expenditures the same
amount.
President Ichihara of the Bank of
Korea, who is an ex-minister of Yo-
kohama, declared that prior to the
establishment of the residency gen.
eralship at Seoul four years ago, the
people were obliged always to give
officials all they earned "by the
sweat of their brows," that all class
es were practically penniless but
that since the Koreans have begun
to save money life and property
have become guaranteed and that
Koreans, with few exceptions, well
come the annexation.

Escapes from Central Park Menager1e
After Being Caught in Tree.

There is a new coon In town, ana ne Is
at large in Central Park.
While near Cat Hill. in the lower part of
the park. yesterday Patrolman Sheehan
heard screams, which he thought came from
some one in distress. After a hunt of nve
or ten minutes he found the source from
which they came-a sleek, brown raccooh'
stretched out on a limb above his mead
With all speed possible he went for Bill
SNYDER. head keeper of the menager1e.
"There's a coon in the tree" said the
patrolman to bill.
What kind of coon?' said "Blil.
"A real one" said Sheehan.
And then with Captain Carson. OF the
Arsenal station, Patrolman Sheehan ana
three or four assistants Snyder. bag in
hand went in search of the coon There he
was. stretched out on the limb where Shee-
nan had first seen him.
While CAPTAIN Carson stood ready with
the bag. Snyder climbed the tree and shook
the coon to the ground. The bag was
thrown over 1t, and the triumphant process
sion returned to the coon house in the
menagerie.
Within half an hour after 1t had been
placed with the four park 'coons the inter
Toner made his escape. and is now at large
1t is believed that the coon has been re-
sponsible for the death rate among the
ducks In the park.

ST. PAUL COMMON PAYS 312
Stock Advances Two Points
When Old Rate Is Maintained.

The directors of the Chicago Milwaukee
& St Paul Railway Company declared the
regular senli-annual dividend of 31b per
cent on the common stock yesterday pay
able on September l, thus continuing the
stock on the per cent dividend basis on
which it has been since 1902 There have
been many rurnors recently that the divi-
dend might be reduced, which have had
their origin in the unfavorable crop out
look in the St Paurs territory and in the
showing Of the roads earnings The an
nouncement that the old rate had been
maintained was followed by an advance of
about 2 points IN the price of the stock.
which closed with a net gain of IA points.
at 1875 Its high record this year was 1582s
on January
The st. Paul's statement of earnings for
the eleven months ended May 81, which was
issued Yesterday. showed an increase of
1896 rs in operating revenue and an in
crease of 1855 COB in operating expenses.
the total net revenue for the period having
been S1,545, 1872 less than for the correspond
ing eleven months Of the preceding fiscal
year. Net revenue for May increased S176.-

and the action of the board is awaited with
lively interest by Wall Street. the prevail
ing belief being that the regular ~ per
cent quarterly dividend will be declared on
the common stock The dividend record of
this Issue, unlike that of st. Paul, has been
one of irregularity. From 1902 to 1905, in

Az per cent; in 1907. per cent; in 1903. 5
per cent: in 1909, Big per cent, and the stock
was restored to the per cent basis at the
beginning OF the current year. The gross
earnings for the eleven months ended May
81 were s10,31, 900 larger than in the same
period of the preceding year. but the in
