Wtckcrsnnm Juptinnt.
Washington. ID. c., October 12.-By
the sweeping decree entered in the
United states Circuit Court at Toledo
to-day the backbone OF the so-called
electrical trust was broken. and. in
the Judgment of Attorney-Genera
Wickersham the government was
equipped with presidents OF genuine
value in Its prosecutions of commercial
combinations forbidden by the Sher-
man law.
Meeting the governments charges
that the trust controlled the electric
lamp business OF the country, regulat-
Ing by agreement the prices at which
all lamps were sold. the decree sewers
all r~eiationshp between the Camera!
Electric Company and the National
Electric Lamp Company. The latter
concern and all its subsidiaries are or
dercd dissolved.
The contracts and combinations en-
tered into by the defendants, the Attor-
n~ey-General pointed out to-day, are
declared unlawful. and the companies
are enjoined from entering into any
agreement to control the prices of in.
candescent lamps. The important
principle was laid down, according to
the Acknowledgement, that once a lamp
is sold by a manufacturer. the price
Mt which it is resold by a dealer or job
Der must be open to free competition.
VIII De No Appeal.
The decree was acquiesced in by the
defendant companies. and this gives the
government the moral certainty thai
there Will be no appeal.

FOREST FIRES RAGING.
Large Area Burned Over During
Past Few Days.

Bend, Ore.-Forest Fires are re-
ported within a radius of 80 or 40
miles of Bend during the past week,
and thousands of acres have been
swept by fire. both in the National
forest and private holdings. The gov
ernment timber seems to have suf-
fered the most, especially a few miles
southeast of Pine Mountain. In the
Pine Mountain section over 1000 acres
have been burned over.
Assistant Forest Supervisor H E.
Deuetch and Supervisor Raj Harvey
of Bend, went out to the burning
district south of Bend and succeeded
in extinguishing the fires there.
There are fires reported in the vi
cinity of La Pine and Spring river.
II is thought these were set by camp
ers, but the most of the fires, it is
believed, were set by the lightning.
There has been a party of nine men
sent out by private parties to-protect
their own holdings 16 miles south of
Bend.
