AUTOMOBILE AS A FACTOR
IN PEACE OF THE WORLD

LONDON. Aug. 13.-Automobiing as
an aid to Anglo-Ger friendship Is the
latest idea. Prince Henry OF Prussia is
the author OF the notion When in Eng
land in February he discussed a scheme
for automobile touring in England and
Germany 80 az TO make the two nations
better known to each other. The late
King Edward heartily approved the pro-
posal. so Prince Henry said he would offer
q cup for competition. The details are
now being drawn up by the Royal Auto
mobile club OF England in conjunction
with the Imperial Automobile club OF
Germany
The competition VIII resolve itself into
a social tour through Germany and Great
Britain. with a practical test OF the tour
ing capabilities OF the competing cars.
II will be confined TO amateur drivers
owning their own cars, and each club
will be allowed a team OF fifty cars. There
will be no restrictions 10 the make Or
nationality of the cars.

GRAND CENTRAL'S LIFE DONE
Famous New York Railway Station
to Be Demolished.
Boston Express Last Train Last
Night, New Terminal Work to
Begin Monday.

New York. June 4-When the Boston
express rumbled out from the Grand Cen
trail Station last night it marked the
passing of the old terminal. Although its
stones are just as. strong as when they
were put together in 1S7l, and the interior
as imposing as the day it was opened to
the public after being remodeled ten
years ago, the building to which the COM
pany pointed with pride not so long ago
as the acme of railroad architecture has
outlived its usefulness and tonight IL
goes into the discard to add another
chapter to the growth of the greater city.
Changes have been going on around the
Grand Central Station ever since the
New York Central decided upon its stu
pendous scheme Of improvements: but
while temporary quarters were erected at
Lexington avenue, and the whole CON-
plexion of the yards altered with excava-
tion tunnels and pits. the old terminal
was untouched save that tie offices IN
the Vanderbilt avenue side Of the station
were transferred to the new building on
Lexington avenue and Forty-fifth street
Gradually the tracks on which the vari-
Gus trains enter and leave have been
shifted over from the big station 10 the
temporary one, until to-day there are
only three tracks in commission.

The Department Of Justice has practi-
cany decided to begin suit against the
American Sugar Refining Company for
its dissolution as a combination in viola
ton of the Sherman antitrust law.
It was learned yesterday that the govz
ernmeut has been gathering evidence on
this phase of the sugar trusts affairs for
almost six months. and that it is about
ready now to move.
With the Standard oil and tobacco
trust cases pending before the Supreme
Court, the proceeding against the sugar
trust will be the third suit of this char
acter that Attorney General Wickersham
will have on his hands.
independent of others.
II was expected that the Attorney Gen
eral would wait for final decision In the
Standard Oil and tobacco trust cases be-
fore moving against Other industrial COM
binations. but it is understood that the
suit against the sugar trust viii be filed
without waiting for the reargument of
ttese two cases.
The suits 20 be begun against the sugar

prosecutions growing out of the case of
George H. Earle, jr.. as receiver OF the
Real Estate Company of Philadelphia,
against the American Sugar Refining
Company. Nor will the new suit have
anything to do with the prosecutions on
account OF violations of the customs
laws.
The government viii contend that the
american Sugar Refining Company is
engaged IN monopoiizing the entire trade
and commerce of the United States in re-
lined sugar and that the -0afIense for
which IL has been indicted inTthe pro-
Receiver Earle was merely one incident

The steps which the Department of
Justice has taken to obtain evidence that
the American Sugar Refining Company
is a combination in restraint of trade
are set forth In report which the At
torney General has made to the Presi-
dent. and which Mr.. Taft has sent to
Congress for its information in regard

lieye that the vast amount Of evidence
that they have collected establishes a
good case.
It is expected that the Attorney Gener-

Out OF the House of Representatives
there came yesterday afternoon one Of
the greatest surprises in the turbulent
history OF the administrations railroad
bin.
Ii was the suggestion that the usual
conference between the two Houses be
waived and the House accept the bill
passed by the Senate.
This proposal, coming from among the
insurgents and Democrats. overshadowed
the talk Of the government suit TO pre-
vent the increase in rates It is a course
which has rarely prevailed upon any
legislative measure.
There was a conference yesterday on
the future Of the railroad bill. at which
Senators Aldrich and Crane and Speaker
Cannon and Representative Mann partici-
pated. The possibility that the move
ment to substitute the Senate bill for
that passed by the House might succeed
was suggested. and Representative Mann
is reported 70 have knowledge that should
few regulars join the insurgent-Deno-
cratic movement it might prove to DO
dangerously near success.

Should the bill go into conference. the
conferees for the Senate will probably be
