ming of Trenton. The same tribunal

the governments fight against the So
called powder trust"
Service on defendants residing in
New York will be made through the
Office of United States Marshal Hen
kle in that city.
The United States district attor-
ney's Office here was not optimistic
OF a speedy trial of the suit. In the
case of the suit against the powder
trust, it was pointed out, IL volumes
the testimony and pleading
taken during an interval of three
years after the filing of the suit. The
case against the steel corporation,
considered even more farreaching
than the powder suit, will hardly
be completed within less than this
time, they believe Even then, they
point out, the final decision may be
delayed two years or more by appeal
to the United States supreme court.
On December 4, under the rules Of
the court; the defendants will answer
the subpoenas and nothing more.
Failure to do this involved penalty
of $500 fine and contempt of court
which may be punished with imprison-
ment.
After answering the subpoenas,.
counsel for the defendants will be
allowed until January to file their
answer to the governments petition
but this time may be extended at the
discretion of the court indefinitely.
The court docket is not crowded and
the court will be prepared for the an
swers on that date, it was said to-
day.
