GOVERNMENT COMPROMISES
Will Accept 100000 In Full Settle.
ment of Draw Back Cases From
Suuar Trust At New York

Washington, Jan. 10. - The United
States government will accept the COM
promise offer of 100000 in full settle
ment of the draw back eases in whic..
the sugar trust. at the port of New
York defrauded the treasury of large
sums OF money. Secretary MacVeagh
probably today will sign a letter ac-
cepting this sum in a settlement of the
cases.
In taking up the compromise offer
the government will assume the atti.
tude that it has not sufficient grounds
for prosecution.
The decision to accept the $700,000
was reached after a thorough inves-
tigation by United States District At
torney Wise at New York, Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury j. +. Curtis,
and William F. Thompson, solicitor
for the treasury department.
The acceptance of this sum for frauds
at New York does not affect the frauds
recently that may result in claims by
the government at New Orleans and
San Francisco.

otis true, tits pity and pity tits 'ts true,
as the Punxsutswney Spirit says, that in
this erratic and disputatious world of
ours man is about as likely to be con-
demned and abused for doing right as for
doing wrong. 1t is the trimmer who ad-
justs his opinions to the changing views
of the multitude, who seems to have the
SIN Jothest road to travel. He who neither
allies himself with the Reds or the Blues,
nor becomes partisan either OF the Par
muldrins or the Scuterns at the glsdia-
torial combats, is most likely to preserve
intact his reputation and his bones. al
though he be lacking both in courage and
ability. Blizzard.

An Oil Mixing Plant.

Forest Huff, formerly of Warren. has
been engaged for more than two months
past fitting up the old bedding factory
building for use as an oil mixing plant.
Some oil mixing machines are now on
the site, and seventeen are being built in
the shops of Rldgwsy. The plant 1t is ex =
pected, will be ready to begin operations
about the first of next month. The con-
cern will be known as the Bonnybrook
Oil Company and the stockholders are
residents of Warren and Forest counties
and of Ridgway. Hon. A. X. Mechling,
OF Clarington, is one of the leading men
in the enterprise. The company will
handle all kinds of oil to be found on the
market and will make business OF mix
ing lubricating oils, machine oils, castor
oils, etc.. and it is believed that the en-
terprise will prove profitable one, as the
business is one that does not seem to be
overdone. John w. Elliot, of Warren,
will be the company's salesman and will
make his headquarters in Rdgway. The
new industry is not one that will employ
a great number of men, but the proceeds
are likely to be large in proportion to the
help required and the amount of capital
invested. .--Ridgwsy Advocate.

ACCORDING to the Pittsburg papers
record breaking cuts in fire insurance
rates are threatened by foreign companies
doing business in this state and it was re-
ported Friday that one of the most bitter
insurance wars ever waged in Allegheny
county has already begun. 1t is an attack
from new source against the Allegheny
County Board of Fire Underwriters, the
aim of four big New York companies be-
ing to break the power of that organiza-
tion in rate fixing. 1t is reported that an
nouncement of big cuts will be made
within a few days and that retaliatory
steps will be taken by various domestic
companies, all board members, to offset
the attack bv the foreign companies. This
latest war has nothing to do with the re-
cent suits brought to dissolve the Alle-
gheny county board, yet it is said by
prominent men on both sides of that con-
troversy to be direct result of the action
brought there against the underwriters.
Eighty-tive big companies east of the
Mississippi river have banded together
and already an organization is said to
have been formed in opposition to the
underwriters association.

their ore mines in Morris county, New

fell off 81 ton within a year.
