AFTER THE BUTTER TRUST.
Attorney General Wickersham Scents
Illegal Fixing Of Prices.

IIe9al flxln9 OF Price9.
Washington. April S.-Attorney Gem
eral Wickersham wants to know
whether the Elgin butter board is a
combination in restraint Of trade. He
has assigned o. E. Harrison, one of
the administration trust busters, to
make a thorough investigation to de-
termine whether the Sherman anti
trust law is being violated
The attorney general said that pre-
liminary investigation had been in
progress for some time, but that his
attention was called to the situation
particularly by the testimony of Pres
ident Newman and Vice President
Wood Of the Elgin board before the
senate cost of living committee yes
terday.
The Elgin officials gave the commit
tee the idea that the, price of butter
was fixed arbitrarily about as high as
it was thought the public could stand
it. Mr. Wickersham called for a tran
script of the testimony.
The suspected com bination is be-
tween butter producers and whole
salers controlling the markets in north
ern Illinois, southern Wisconsin, and
eastern Iowa, thus bringing the mat
ter under the jurisdiction of the fed
eral courts.
