The lumber trust OF Colorado Is
to lie pl'Ohed by the courts.
The first step was taken Saturday
morning in the district court when
on complaint of tho grand jury now
In session nearly 80 lumber dealers
Of the state were summoned to ap-
pear In court to answer to charges Of
conspiracy in restraint OF trade, OF
unlawful pooling and to show
cause why relief by injunction
should not he granted to the people
and why the lumber dealers should
not he placed under the Jurisdiction
OF the court to prevent further viO-
latiOn OF the antitrust Law.
The complaint Is filed by Ben
jamin Griffith, attorney general Of
the state; Archibald Lee, has deputy
and George A. Carlson, district at
to the sheriff for service at noon to-
day. August 2 Is the date set for ap-
pearance in court.
MANY DEALERS INVOLVED
Several millions Of dollars in
capital and more than . score Of
dealers are involved in the COM
plant, which follows the work Of
| investigation conducted by the
grand jury for the past two months.
! This is the first inkling of what the
grand jury has been doing that has
been made public.
| The complaint charges that the
dealers OF Colorado have an Organi-
zatiOn which IL seCret and which
has controlled the prices of lumber
throughout the state for years past.
1t alleges that dealers who would
not enter into the secret agreement
were "bOycOtted" or ''frOzen OUT
by the dealers who controlled the
market. High pices were MAIN
tanned, territory for certain dealers
apportioned and q pool established
whereby profits were divided pro
rata, are among the charges enume-
rated.
TRUST IN GREELEY
Greeley lsas a peach Of little
combination all it's own, according
to the complaint. The Nell Lum'
her company, the Mayher Lumber
company, the Bartlett Lumber com.
pany, the Clayton Lumber company
the GilreSt- Russell Lumber com
pany and the Ndball company hat
a fine combination, it is declared
which not only controlled the lum
ber business to a fare-yOu-well, bu
also took on side line of cement
keeping careful supervision on thu
prices to keep them from getting to-
: low for . good profit.
In support of the charges mad
against the dealers Of Greeley an<
vicinity are number Of letters ne
gartling the agreement, account
showing profits of the Ave yard
y maintained In the city and nOtifica
tions Of discs, payments due OF di
} vision Of moneys. Warnings rela
, tive to cement quotations and Ottse
documents evidently Of . most COZ
fftiential nature have place In tn
complaints.

Butter in University Exhibits
Also Poisonous to Cattle.

Madison.-The feeding of frozen
silage to dairy cows resulted in the
butter having burnt flavor when it
was scored in the March exhibit at
the College of Agriculture of the
University of Wisconsin.
Some of the buttermakers said
that the butter was made from cream
secured from farmers who were
feeding their cows damaged silage
and damaged shredded fodder. In
some cases the fodder was shredded
last fall while it was wet and dur
ing the winter it had nodded, and
in some cases was so badly spoiled
that it was black
Frozen silage and spoiled fodder
are not only bad from the point of
view of ALTERNATING, but, as the
university authorities pointed out
some time ago, such feeds often pois-
on cattle.

The Intended victim OF the explosion
has been given great deal of pub

Brandt case. 1t was Judge Rosalsky
who sentenced Brandt to a S0-year
term for burglary at Mortimer L.

The attack upon the jurist is the
first case of such violence attempted

rifles, the convicts were within a few

Young Blunt was forced to lash his
horses into run. but the officers kept
up the chase.
