New scheme Alleged.

Baltimore, 3icy Julv 22-The bill
against the so-colled "bathtub trust"
was fled in the United States Circuit
Court here to-day by Edward P. Gros-
venor special assistant to Attorney
General Wickersham, who drew the
petition, and Joseph Darling. special
agent of the department, who made the
investigation.
On June 10 complaint was made to
the Department OF Justice that GER
tain manufacturers OF sanitary enam-
eled ironware had advanced prices as
result of a combination, and an in
vestigauon was at once began. It
was discovered. according to the gov
ernments BILL that the defendants had
entered into combination for the
purpose of controlling the prices and
terms of sale Of their product through.
out the United States 1t is alleged
that they compelled all jobbers to sign
contracts as a condition sustaining
their goods. and refusing to sell to
those not signing such contracts.
1t is stated that this suit differs from
other suits instituted b ythe govern
ment under the Sherman law in that
the defendants have attempted to con-
ceal their purposes under the guise of
an ostensible licensing arrangement
under a patent.
Prices Fixed.
A patent, it is alleged, was assigned
to a person selected by the companies,
and then all acquired licenses to man
ufacture and sell under the patent, and
by this means fixed prices. It Is al
legged that the defendants have at
tempted to use the patent laws as a
screen for an illegal combination in
restraint of trade. 1t is alleged in
the bill that the defendants have di-
vided the United States into geograph-
ical zones, and by their system of con-
tracts restrict each jobber in making
sales. so as to prevent competition.
1t is further charged that the defend
ants are cooperating in fighting the
manufacturers of sanitary enameled
tronware, and dealers therein in inter-
state commerce who have not become
parties to the combination. and that all
the defendants have united and are
now engaged In common effort to
force such manufacturers and dealers
into the combination or else drive
them out of business
Penalties. it is alleged. are imposed
on such members of the combination
as depart from the rules respecting
prices and terms of sale fixed by the
combination These penalties are paid
into common fund of the defendants.
The case In the ordinary course Is
expected to come up for hearing IN
