 The company and It's officers en- gagged in the manufacture of Kellogg s Toasted Corn Flakes are charged with fixing prices at which the flakes are sold to retailer and consumer prevent ing competition which would reduce the price to the public. and creating a monopoly by concentrating the entire interstate traffic in this commodity In the hands of jobbers and retailers who abide by price agreements exacted by the defendants.

Washington. December 26.-Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood. chief of staff of the arraY who has just been named as chief mar ahal of the approaching inaugural pa rade. has begun to outline his plans for military, naval and civic demonstration
 The selection of General Wood to un- Geltake this task is in line with prcoe- dents which for the last several adminis- trations has led to selection of the senior army officer on the active list in Wash ngton. regardless of political affiliatioe Thus il happened that the military fea- lures of President Tafts inauguration were in charge of Maj Gen. J. Franklin bell, while the late Lient. Gen. 1Ienrs' C. Corbin performed a similar function at the last inauguration of Theodore Roose- welt.
 General Woods purpose is to make tho Wilson inaugural parade as well bal aaeed as possible in the matter O. the representation of the cavalry infantry and artillery of the army, the blueiaekets and marines of the navy and adequate ana liberal representation of the National Guard and well proportioned civic dis play.
 Consultations began today between Genstal Wood and the ranking officers of fhs- armN. and fays now in Washin4ton. aud correspondence has been instishted bet tween the chicf marshal and the EoY- einors and adiutans generals of the varl oua states and rfitories. in regard to

the participation of the militia in the in al guration.
 One of the features of the plan is ;o gather in Washington several thousand troops from the various army posts, probably as far west as Chicago and south to Atlanta. as well as the entire cadet corps and midshipmen battalion from their respective academies. This will involve the war department in con siderable eXpenae owing to the tranapor- tation. and as that particular appropria- ton has been greatly reduced owing 70 the recent extensive changes of station Of officers and troops, it may be necessary to apply to Congress immediately upon it's reeonvenlng next week for deficiency appropriation.
 Jefferson simplicity is to mark the com ms inauguration
 There will probably be the greatest out pouring of people that has ever marked the inauguration of any President, but according to Chairman William C. Eustis of the committee. there will be no osten- taton. He contends true democracy holds for no display and he is upheld by Thomas Nelson Page, who is quoted:
 'president Jeffersons act of riding up Tennsylvania avenue on horseback, has been derided but the people who have studied history have realized that he did it in dignified manner and that his inauguration had at least as much real dignity and true simplicity that of any President E

player He was arrested in pool room upon the advice of Pinkerton detectives frcm Atlanta, where 1t is said Brumby is wanted for forgery. Through his attor- ney Brumby instituted habeas corpus pro- ceedines, but the writ was denied by Judge Armistead Brown of the city courr.
 Brrmby is supposed to have escaped early Wednesday morning. the discovery of the escape having been made by Jailor John. E. Cheney about G30 o'clock in the morning The two men were locked in l cell with two other prisoners, both or whom told Jailor Cheney that they lSnow absolutely nothing of the escape It is thought the alleged forger sawed his way through and then offered Jones an op- portunity to escape with him.
 It is believed by county authorities that Brunby sawed Inc bar away during tn day or previous night, as one end of the bar showed where trash and dirt had beer stuffed in the cut rlace to avoid it being noticed. The prison was inspected as usual during the day and night and no in- dication of contemplated escape was found. A close search of the cell afte. the men left failed to reveal any saws.

El Paso Tex, December 26,-A house divided" resulted in federal fighting fed eral at Colonia Iuarez, Casas Grandes district last Sunday. Persons arriving here tonight from the American colony relate how the federal 4forcVFof Genefsl Jose Blanco attacked a. part of the same army last Sunday while seeking the rebels.
 Hearing that the Salazar rebels were aI Colonia Juarez, travellers relate the federal commander divided his force of 600 men and attacked the town from op- posite directions The inhabitants hugged the floors of their houses until the fir ing stopped. After fighting four hours against each other and expending about 2O0 rounds of ammunition the federals learned that the rebels never had been in the town. Several soldiers were wounded, but none killed. In the mean time Salazar was evacuating Ascension and moving toward Casas Grandes, neatly avoiding Colonia JuareZ. The reported victory of Blanco against the rebels may have been the attackl on Colonia Juarez, Official advices insist that Casas Grandes remains in federal hands.

Washington, December 26.--Alaska has prospered in many respects during the last year, according to Gov. Walter F.. Clark, in his annual report submitted to- day to Secretary of the Interior Fisher. Governor Clark deplores. however, the present lack Of railroad construction and of cheap native fuel. declaring that q pfoper development of the territory's re- sources demands adequate means of trans portation and the opening up of the fuel resources.
 He asserts that the residents generally are willing to accept any measure which will cause the fuel resources to be opened to development so much so that the com parative advantages of a fee system, a leasing plan or government operation have almost ceased to be matters of dis cussion."
 A moderate decline in white population in the last two years he attributes to diminished activity in placer mining in the interior valleys and in equal measure probably to inadequate land laws. to. tlie remarkable public calumnies about Alas ka which have kept capital without it's borders and to the failure of Congress to lend necessary means of encourage ment to the development of virgin re- oiav,

Judge Charges Jury

After stating the substance of the va rous offenses charged and mentioning the nation wide strike of the iron work CTS union, which, the government charged, was the motive for 100 explosions on the work of contractors who refused to recognize the union, Judge Anderson in his instruction said
 ''It was not unlawful for the Structural Iron Workers to organize the union to which they belong 1t is not unlawful for the defendants to be members of that or any other labor organization. Men have the right to use their com bined power through such organizations to advance their interests in any lawful way; but they have no right to use this power in the violation of the law. or ganzed labor is not on trial here, nor is the right of labor to organize, an issue, but members of labor organizations owe the same obedience to the law and are liable to the same punishment for it's violation as persons who are not meIn- bers of such organizations.
 The defendants are not on trial for causing the various explosions and the consequent loss of life and property throughout the United States, shown by the evidence. They are on trial for the offenses charged in the indictment Evi- dence of these explosions together with the facts and circumstances sur rounding them, were permitted to go in evidence before you, because they tend to show the community of purpose, the concert of mind and action, which is an essential ingredient of the ofrenses charged, and they should be considered by you upon that issue alone.
 "The evidence in this case shows that F in August. 1905, there was a controversy between the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers and the American Bridge company over the opend and closed shop question: that in said month, the International declared general strike against the American Bridge company; and that this strike has never been settled. If you find from the evidence that in order to carry out the purposes of the international the defendants, or two or more of them, en- tered into a conspiracy to destroy with dynamite or nitroglycerin the property of the American Bridge company and other open shop concerns, or the structures which they were erecting in various states of the union, and if you find that such conspiracy to destroy such prop erty included as a necessary step in the accomplishment of such destruction. the unlawful transportation of dyna- mite and nitroglycerin upon the ve- hicles of common carriers engaged at the time in the transportation of pas sengers from place in one state to place or places in another or other states of the United States, and if you further find that such destruction of property was accomplished by explosions of dynamite and nitroglycerin in various places throughout the ITnite1 States. and That the ( sia.nife aH3 nitroglycerin with which tcf Sn'osqis were pro duced were 4a If fact trans ported from Hta z, afe upon the ve- hicles of cortHn ters. engaged at the time in EAS F af passengers as ayerred t<tni pe be authorized to find that formed to transport fHt nitroslycerin S~s~e~-~~~ ss49 's ss+'' >~~~~>~>~>~s~~~~~> lCeAti ef &Ss Ntnel
