SEEKING SETTLEMENT
| OF COFFEE TRUST SUIT
Attorney General Wickersham
Negotiating With Brizilian
Government Officials.

Washington, Dec. 2.-Negotiations
between the United States and Brazil
for the friendly settlement of the
coffee trust" suit in the Brazilian state
of Soa Paulo are proceeding with cler-
tty and the result may be known with
in the next few weeks.
While officials of the department are
reticent regarding the diplomatic in
tercourse, it is known that the gov
crnment of Brazil is negotiating with
Edwin v Morgan, American minister
at Rio Janeiro, to learn the terms on
which Attorney General Wickersham
will settle the suit without further
fight in the courts.
Several propositions have been made
by Brazil to this government, and these
have been met by counter proposals.
1t is still uncertain whether an agree
ment can be reached. 1t is generally
believed here that any settlement would
contemplate the gradual sale within a
limited time on the open market of the
$4,000 bags of coffee valued at S1G,-
100000 said to be stored in New York
under tie Brazilian valorization scheme,
which constitutes the alleged trust.
Pending the result of these negotia-
tons the antitrust suit is expected to
remain in the courts in statu quo The
defendants--nenbers of the valoriza-
ton committce-have filed a demurrer
to the governments bill in equity
which stamps the valorization scheme
as violation of the Sherman law.
