unanimously chosen president and Sec

The board of directors, which will

more than 125 were from Louisville.
Nashville and Indianapolis came next

in a disagreement OF the jury, ard Il
was generally understood then that the
government would not press a second
trial For weeks John K. Parsons, gray
haired, but vigorous and rudy faced, sat
in court while the trial went on. ana
he sat for many hours waiting for the
verdict of the jury. until finally he con-
sented 10 go home when IL became gppar-
ent that the jury would stay out after
midnight.
The indictment found in 1909 charged
that the American Sugar Refining Com
pany, through the acts Of the individuals
named, had secured control over the
PENNSYLVANIA Sugar Refining Company
and had caused the closing down OF
large plant in Philadelphia which threat
ened TO become powerful competitor.
The control was secured. the indictment
