Alexander the Great through all his

fact that. although white. he had a
black mark resembling an ox's head
on his forehead. A Thessalonian had
offered the horse for sale to Philip Of
Macedon, but as none of the monarch's
attendants could manage him the king
ordered his owner TO take him away.
Alexander, who was present, ex-
pressed his regret at losing so fine an
animal. and Philip replied that be

Zeus Easy Winner

Adams Shaft, galloped home to an easy
victory In the STAFFORD Handicap, FOR
three-year-olds, at Pimlico yesterday,
which, with the Emerson Steeplechase,
won by Ringmastet, Billy Garth's latest
young jumping wonder, featured the
running of another excellent program

had been eased up to a three-length ad-
vantage over Col. Raj PARIS Bounder,

Zeus was held II a prohibitlve price,
but 2 to s, 1t was the opinion Of the ex-

regime on the turf. never has started
a horse unless he was In the prime oi
form. and It could easily be noted tha
Zeus was ready when they danced pas

did Mr. Hildreth a world of good Il
see Zeus out In front. for nobody love-
to see their colors borne to victory NOR,
than the Independently wealthy Mis-
sourian. who is not In the sport fo
the money there is in It.

BATHTUB TRUST
is KNOCKED OUT
/ BY FEDERAL COURT
Decree Entered At Baltimore
Holding It To Be lille
L. gal Combine.

Tne Government won another trust
busting victory today when the United
States Circuit Court handed down an
opinion at Baltimore holding Illegal the
so-called "Bathtub trust"
Justices Rose In an opinion, delivered
the blow to the trust.
The Department of Justice heard
shortly afternoon today that the Circuit
Courts action had been favorable to
It's contention, and. following the en-
forced dissolution of the Electrical
trust yesterday, the information
brought considerable qualification.
The suit against the bath-tub trus.
was instituted by the Government
against an alleged combination OF bath
tnb manufacturers. all OF whom, while
having no joint corporate existence,
were charged with making agreements
which violated the Sherman antitrust
law.
The "Bathtub trust was accused of
methods similar to those employed by
the Electrical trust, the Aluminium
trust, and others in the stlning OF COM
petition. the charge being that by a
series of trade agreements the various
bathtub manufacturers maintained a
system Of hidebound prices. What the
Attorney General has designated as "un-
fair means of preventing competition
was said to have been invoked against
Independent dealers.
Officials Of the Department Of JUS
.tice stated this afternoon that the de-
cision at Baltimore declaring the bath
tub trust illegal marked the successful
termination Of the Government suit
against the alleged combination.
This action, however, was separate
from the criminal action against the
same group of manufacturers which
was brought in Detroit. Mich, and ia
now pending. Attorney General Wick
ersham Is attempting to obtain jail
sentences for the alleged violators OF
the antitrust law.

"It Is a well-known fact that wet
