attack on the Canadian trade agree.

Mr.. Nelson appeared to explain to

pay his respects to the president and
what he said was quite as warm as

this matter. In 1854 there was q trea-

Use of the Blacklist.

New York, May 20.-Sweeping
charges of gigantic conspiracy to
maintain high prices, to blacklist con
Germs not regarded as proper" trade
and to violate generally the Sherman
antitrust law, are made in a govern.
ment suit filed by Attorney General
Wickersham in the United States
court here against the so called lum-
Der trust.
Ten trade organizations and more
than $50 individuals are named as de
PENDANTS in this suit, which may be
the first of several planned by the de-
partment of justice against combina-
lions and retailers in staple commodi-
ties and the necessaries of life to
prevent the ultimate consumer from
buying anywhere, except from local
retailers.
The governments suit is replete
with sensational allegations and it is
asserted that builders and consumers
OF lumber the country over are at the
mercy Of the retailers organizations
in different sections of the United
States
The suit filed is against the Eastern
States Retail Lumber Dealers asso-
citation, which is the central body of
nine local organizations covering five
states, the District of Columbia and
the cities of Baltimore and Philadel-
phia.
slackmaIing System Alleged.
The government charges, in brief,
that by an elaborate system OF black
listing not only individual consumers
but some of the largest industrial
corporations have been prevented
from dealing directly with wholesalers.
BY alleged unlawful agreements and
acts. it is charged, that all competi-
ton for the trade of the contractor,
the builders, the manufacturer of fin
ished lumber products and the indi.
vidual consumers has been thrown
entirely into the hands of the retailers
In the Eastern States Retail Lumber
Dealers association and its constitu-
ent organizations.
The governments bill alleges that
In some localities the wholesaler SELL

heavily fined or expelled from the or
ganization.
Officials of the department of JUS
tice regard the suit as the most i'm
portant in principal of any yet under
taken by the government against al
eged conspiracies said to affect the
cost of living.
1t is believed that should the courts
uphold the governments contention
hat it is violation of the Sherman
antitrust law to prevent the ultimate
consumer from buying direct from the
producer, other suits will be started
against combinations of retailers al
eyed to be in control Of the market
ng Of many of the commodities of

in others that were yielding a profit
the income has been largely increased.
This principle Is being applied to

Distribution has received but little at
tention in this country heretofore, but
the time is coming when 1t will be
regarded seriously.
Denmark has had wonderful de-
velopment along this line. The pro-
ducers of butter, cheese, eggs and
bacon formed associations some years
ago and established their own agents
in London, their chief market. They
got right next" to the consumers. Not

Causes Of Insomnia,

A doctor says that the causes Of sleep.

increased activity of the cerebral cir
culation is a condition that invariably
ensues. Disturbance in. the sleep func-
ton is one Of the sure signs that Father
Time is stealing a march on US. I'm
moderate eating. excessive use Of tea,
coffee. tobacco and alcoholics are
among the. many causes of insomnia
Indigestion and poor assimilation result
in the production Of cerebral hyperemia
by reason Of nonassimilated products In
the blood. Stomach disorders result In
an accumulation of gas, and this also
interferes In a mechanical way with
the hearts action.
The author has found a very close
relationship existing between neur-
asthenia and insomnia, the one condi-
ton usually being concomitant Of the
other. Worry over business and social
affairs is the well-known cause OF
much of the insomnia. Depressing emo
tions, anxiety and excitement Of vari-
Gus kinds are other factors that mill
tate against refreshing sleep.
The, extreme Of either heat or cold
must always be removed If good sleep
is to be insured. The habit which so
many old people have Of sleeping with
the head high Is not compatible with
restful slumber. There are many ex-
ternal conditions which retard sleep.
