SPLITTING POWDER TRUST
Government Insists II Be Sepa-
rated Into Three Companies.
.DU POINTS WANT ONLY TWO
Court Postpones Decision Two
Weeks, and Hopes Both Sides
Agree Upon Final Decree.

Philadelphia. March 4-After argument
the United States Court Of Appeals here
to-day postponed for two weeks or more
its decision on a form OF decree dlssolVlnS
the so-called powder trust. The postpone
ment was taken because the point was
raised by counsel for the powder combina-
ton that Judge Lanning, OF New jersey
who sat during the original arguments, mad
since died and because the court hopes that
both sides will agree upon final decree.
Counsel for the powder companies raised
the point that the death Of Judge Lannins
created vacancy in the court, and that
any decree that might he entered must he
made by three judges who had heard the
original arguments. and asked that an
entire new argument as to the merits OF
tho case be heard. Judge Cross, OF Now
Jersey. sat with Judges GRAY and Buffin9-
ton to-day at their invitation.
The United States Circuit Court for the
81 Judicial District, consisting OF Judges
Gray. Burlington and Lanning, last June
handed down a decision dissolving the so
called trust. Suggestions regarding the
nolnts raised will be received by the court
in chambers here next Friday.
yVbile COUNCIL for the government asked
to-day that tho court appoint receiver or
issue an Injunction restraining the trans
portation of the products OF the so-called
trust. the arguments showed that tho real
split between the two sides was whether
the alleged trust should be separated into
two companies or three. The government
original plan for dissolution was that the
various companies be separated into three
concerns. while the powder company heId

vice on strictly rural routes, in accordance
with the Presidents recommendation. and

further. the House Committee on Post Of
fces and Post Roads to-day reported the
Postofficc appropriation bill, which carries
$3.50 s277l9. This is approximately X.3:O0po
less than the estimates submitted by the
department
In urging the establishment Of a par, els
post the committee SAYS that twenty-three
foreign countries may now transmit rler-
chandise through our malls at the rate Of
j. cents a pound with a package limit cf
eleven pounds. The bill proposes TO give
"a similar pound rate and limit for ;be use
OF our people i'm our mails that is given in
foreign countries"
A different scale Is suggested for mack
ages travelling exclusively over one rural
route. The committee provides for q limit
ed rural route parcels post, with rates at
five cents a pound for the first pound and
two cents for each additional pound or
fraction thereof up TO the maximum weight
of eleven pounds. II is provided that the
experimental parcels post on rural routes
shall continue for two years. after which
