Especial to The Times Dispatch1 /.
New York, July 30.---A new bread
trust, suspected of having close rela.
tions with the other bread trust,
known as the National Biscuit Com
pany, will be launched Monday under
the laws OF Delaware. The name OF
the new concern VIII be the Federal
Bakeries Company. 1t is said that the
capitalization Will be $30,000,000, di-
vided into $1S,O00,OOO OF preferred and
$12,000,d00 Of common stock
Hartwell b. Grubbs. president of the
Consumers Biscuit Company. said to
be subsidiary Of the National Will
head the concern. A meeting Of the
directors will be held IN Wilmington,
Del, Monday, when announcement Of
the details will be made.
George B. Brown, of Wilmington. is
counsel for the company. The com
pany will occupy ten floors OF the
large new building at Hudson and
Franklin Streets. the centre OF the
wholesale grocery district.
1t Is stated that eighty Of the larg-
est establishments in the country en-
gagged in the manufacture of crack

transactions. The largest in this
district is the wallace Company, of
Bridgeport, Conn. Four or five of the
important companies in New York
City are said to have been absorbed
also.
To Educate Public.
novel feature Of the new trust will
be It's establishment OF literary bu-
reau' to educate the public of the
United States to eat more of the pro-
ducts OF biscuit factories and less of
bakers bread and the homemade ar
ticle. An extensv esystem Of sdver-
+, Using already has been organized with
! this object In view.
| The contention Will be made that
the products of the biscuit factories.
including nearly 100 varieties, are more
wholesome than either homemade or
bakers bread. In proof Of this health
statistics of various countries will be
presented on an elaborate scale. For
example, it will be shown that the per
| capita consumption oG biscuits" in
i England amounts to 81 year, in Can.
ada $3.50, in Spain more than SIS, while
in the United States 1t is only 40 cents.
Hartwell b. Grubbs. who is to be the
head of the new trust, is a Tennessean
by birth. He accumulated fortune in
st. Louis as a cracker manufactures
before organizing the Consumers Bis
! cult Company, with headquarters in
New York. He is president of the
Missouri Society of New York.
