PROSECUTION IN BATHTUB
CASE WILL FINISH SOON
Only Few More Witnesses Will
Be Called-Trial Off
Till Monday

There is some prospect that the
trial OF the members OF the so-called
bathtub trust may end sooner than
was expected. Edwin p. Grosvenor,
special assistant TO the attorney-gen-
-eral, reply-to- question from
Robert b. Honeyman. chief counsel
for the defense, at the close of the
Friday afternoon session, said that
the prosecution had only few more
witnesses to put on the stand. and
that only a few more days would be
required TO complete the case for the
government, provided, however" he
added, 1.-The defense doesn't make too
many objections"
Judge ANGEL decided in the Friday
afternoon session TO admit letters
Tritten To jobbers by the defendants
and offered in evidence by the prose
cution, but specified that they could
be uLed only 10 show a general agree
ment between the jobbers and manu-
faoturers, not for the purpose oil
showing intent.
The prosecution called several job
bers in the afternoon to testify in re-
gard TO the lack Of competition among
jobbers who signed the agreement Of
fered by the manufacturers after the
arrangement went into effect, June 6,
1910, and in regard TO an increase in
the price of bathtubs.
Tbe gist of their testimony was
that the price of bathtubs and other
enameled ironware increased from 10
to 25 per cent after the manufacturers
and jobbers signed up. Frank Col
Inns, OF the National Supply Co, To
ledo. said that he and the three other
wholesale jobbing houses in Toledo
had refused 70 enter the agreement
and were obliged TO buy from indie
pendents after the agreement toon Ell
feet.
From Herbert w. Thorndyke, vice
president and general manager OF the
f. w. Webb Manufacturing Co, Bos-
ton. the defense succeeded In drawing
a little comfort in cross-eXamination.
He admitted he understood that sec
ond class goods were to be taken on
the market and made up into better
articles after the agreement was CIV
en- effect. This step. the witness
thought. entitled the manufacturers
to n higher price than they had been
getting.
