FORCED TO CLOSE DOWN
FLORIDA GROCER SAYS ASSO.
CITATION FOUGHT HIM.
Tells Special Food Committee That
He Was Unable to Pur-
chase Goods.

John T. Hammond Of New Smyrna,
Fla. told the Moore special food COM
mittee today that he had been put out OF
business by the Southern Wholesale
Grocers' Association Hammond said he
started in business as q wholesale grocer
ut Orlando, Fla, in 1905, with capital
of $4,000. He lasted just three months
he said The Southern Wholesale Gro
GERS Association fought him. 1t got so
he couldn't buy goods and he had to
close. he declared.
Later Hammond brought suit in the
Jacksonville circuit court for $OO:OO
damages. and recovered $4,000 the
case was appealed on technlcanty
and is now awaiting retrial
James NJ. Denny, secretary and man.
ager of the Urika Grocery Company OF
this city. was the next witness. He said
that his concern had incurred the enmlty
of the Wholesale Grocers' Association OF
this city, and as result the Crika
Grocery Company had found 1t difficult.
and in many instances impossible, to
purchase goods. He presented to the COM
mittee many letters received from large
firms.
Mr.. Denny Makes Denial.
Mr.. Denny took exception to the
statement made before the committee
several days ago by p. NJ. Brown, at
torney for the wholesale grocers OF
this city, to the effect that the Crika
Grocery Company had started in to
monopolize the wholesale grocery
trade of the District of Columbia. Mr..
Denny characterized this statement as
absolutely false. He also denied the
accuracy of Attorney Browns state
ment that all the stock from the Urika
company would soon be In the hands Of
a few people. Mr.. Denny pointed to a
section in the bylaws Of the Urika
concern designed to prevent this.
G. A. Russell, local grocer, told the
committee hat he thought the increase In
prices of the necessities of life. according
to information he had gathered from the
books of his fathers store. going hack as
far as 1896 was due to tie fact that tho
public now demanded a higher class of
goods, a great deal of package goods and
better service. He thought the great
amount IF advertising done now by manu-
facturers. wholesalers and retailers OF
food products had something to do with
the increased cost. He was certain that
the consumer always paid the advertising
bills.

CLAIMS GREAT VICTORY fires ON THE VENUS AS|
VIEWS REGARDING CoNCEs-
SIONS TO TRAINMEN.
A. E. Garretson Announces Increase
in Wages and Expresses His
Qualification.

NEW YORK. May 1.-THE trainmer
and conductors of the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern railroad and the
Michigan Central railroad have been
granted wage increases identical with
the Baltimore and Ohio award by the
arbitrators, L. Ii. Morrissey and r. r.
Clark.
The announcement was made By A g.
Garretson, president Of the railway con-
ductors, today.
The victory is decisive one al
along the line said Mr.. Garretson,
land. taken with the victory on other
roads. is the greatest step forward
which organized labor on railroads has
ever taken. 1t means that the standard
rates of pay which we have been seek
ing to establish throughout eastern
territory are virtually effective.
B. & o. Rate Endorsed.
THE Baltimore and Ohio rate has been
established on these lines: New York Cen
trail. Boston and Albany. Delaware and
Hudson, Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western. New York, New Haven and
Hartford, West Shore, Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern. Michigan Central
Central, Hooking Valley, Pittsburg and
Lake Erie. Monon. Kanawha and Michi-
gan, Buffalo. Rochester and Pittsburg
Bessemer and Lake Erie, Cincinnati
Hamilton and Dayton and the Baltimore
and Ohio Southwestern.
THE men on the pennsylvania system
and the Lehigh Valley road did not join
with the conductors and trainmen of the
other roads in demanding the uniform
rate. The 'gh Valley settled with its
men for rate somewhat lower and the
Pennsylvania men are still discussing the
matter with the railway officials
Effect Of the Decision.
Under the terms of the decision of the
arbitrators. Mr.. Garretson said, the Bal
timore and Ohio rate, which has been
taken as a standard for all the eastern
lines, would apply to all the trainmen
and conductors ON the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern and Michigan Central
railroads. 1t differs from the award made
in the case Of the New York Central d s.
pute. the arbitrators in the case Of the
latter road giving men on the through
trains between New York and Buffalo a
rate lower than the standard, on account
of the greater mileage they make.
There are no runs Of such length on
the Lake Shore or the Michigan Central,
Mr.. GarretsCn said. and consequently
there will be no exception in the appii-
cation OF the standard rates.t

 Sheriff Hayden. in this case, re fused to issIs the license on the ground that the employment of more than twenty-five men at the Adams street school building and also at tte Marfcopa county bridge, brought the case within the act When the 2atter came before Judge Kent, he held witk the sheriff and ruled against Pordoai's claim that, inas- aiuck as he had been in bus ness for s number of years. the. law could not sssply to him. The view of the court is to the effecf that the Issuing of each ssperate license is a new trans action, and thS no matter how many years a saioon keeper may have been in business. he is on precisely the sane status as though making k,s rsst application. ..
 Investigations made today show fkat probably thirty men are em, ASoyed On the Adams street school spiidfRg, and more than fifty men on de county bridge.
 Thsrs Is no question" one con y4fsant with the facts said. but the oenditfon at either of those places KiRU every saloon in Phoenix under tEe operation of the statute.
 ''Of course" he continued, mo ex isttns right of any saloon keeper can se invaded. The statute does moi say licenses shall be revoked. i' merely declares no license shall is gre in such cases The court has al Nady held that the language of the sct applies both to old and new ap phcants; so. while as many as twen. y-f1ve men are employed at either sf these places, no saloon license can issue in this city under the law
 As to the effect of thos provision the chances are that it will be more widespread than many first supposed 0Re license has already been refused and there will be two more expsra- ttons in January. Then a large mum her of licenses expire about the last ef March, and there Is strong reason for believing that all these may be ciassed among the closed.
