TO DEPORT DETROIT
COUPLE; CHILD MAY STAY
From a Staff Correspondent.

FTOM SIdIT COTfeSpOndent-
WASHINGTON, Feb. 29.-It will
only be a few days before little Ger
trude Litwinski may be separated
from her parents, at Detroit. The par
ents OF the baby girl have been or
dered deported as undesirable aliens.
The little girl. American born, cannot
go with them because her parents
have no money to pay her way. The
parents will be transported at the cx-
pense OF government and the steam
ship company that brought them from
Poland, but the government has no
money with which II might pay the
expenses OF the baby girls travel. 1t
was thought that some charitable per-
son would pay the baby's travelling
expense, but no offer has been made.

The prosecution In the trial OF the

ed with conspiracy in restraint OF

day morning, just how Judge A. &.
Angel, who is hearing the case. feels
about the matter. He gave his de-
clsion at the opening of court on the
motion of the defense, Tuesday, for
the dismissal OF the defendants, and
In denying the request made 1t plain
that he took this course because OF
the fact that the government would
be unable to appeal were he TO grant
the motion. Lest his Judgment in
supporting the motion be wrong, he
deemed II advisable TO let the case
go to the jury.
Mr.. Honeyman, for the defense,
was granted an exception and he i'm
Inediately made a motion for the

by the government, "fghting ships

1t was not until the government inves-
tigated defendant line that the oper-
alton of these lighting ships ceased.

fed that 1t was In 1910 that the fight

LAND BOOM CAUSE OF
COMPANY'S FAILURE

New York, June 26.-In the government s
equity suit for the dissolution of the So
called sugar trust today. Thomas R. Cut
Ter, vice president and general mana
ger of the Utah-Idaho Sugar company,
told how land boom resulted in the fall
ure of the Havemeyer company to erect
sugar factory in Idaho in 1906. He
said the erection of the factory was
counting upon the ability of the farmers
to raise a certain number of acres of
beets.
when the news of the proposed fac
tory got out land values began to rise,
continued the witness, and the farmers
were so busy selling land they did not
have time to raise lbeets and the required
acreage was not planted.
United States Assistant District Attor-
ney Knapp made an effort to show that
Mr.. Havemeyer in his operations in Utah
and Idaho had great respect for the Nor
mon church. "
Recognizing the sugar company as an
agent of the advancement of the people,
the Mormon church was solcitous as to
the welfare of the company?' asked Mr..
Knapp.
Aftere being assured that back of the
questioning there was no Idea that the
Mormon church was party to the COM
pany, the witness answered in the affirm
alive.
