RAG, BOTTLE,
SACK TRUST
IS SUED
Dealer, Driven From Business
BY ST 900, 900 Combine,
Asks Damages

The rags bottles-sacks trust, alive
and fiourishing in San Francisco and
other leading cities of the Pacific
coast, is the latest object of attack
in the courts through the fling of a
suit today by B. w. Boyarsky, who
claims that he was driven from bust
ness by the "old clothes combine,
and who wants $4,000 for the result
ant damage.
That the rags-bottles-sacks trust is
as thriving and active q combination
in restraint of trade as any ever
planned by a Wall street wizard is
the gist of Boyarsky's complaint. Bo-
yarsky claims that the Charles Har-
ley company and r.. Rosenberg & Sons
company are the trust, and Boyars-
kys attorney, former Senator Milton
D. Schmitt, declares that they have
cleaned up 100000 since they COR
nered the rags bottles-sacks market
in a dozen Pacific coast cities.
RAG DEALERS FORM COMBINE
Boyarsky alleges that the comBi-
nation of the two defendant corpora
tions for the purpose of controlling
the prices paid for second hand bot
ties and rags in San Francisco was
effected In the month of February,
1911. At that time, he AYERS, there
were several persons and firms en-
gagged in the business of purchasing
rags and bottles from peddlers, and
he was one of these purchasers or
dealers"
In March, 1911, says Boyarsky, the
defendant corporations entered into
agreements, in writing, with several
dealers whereby the dealers should
retire from business on their own
account and become agents of the
combine. He adds that under the
contracts the dealers were restricted
in the prices they were to pay to the
peddlers. According to. Attorney
Schmitt, the agents were to receive
a commission of 81 for each ton of
goods delivered to the trust
Boyarsky declares that he was
urged and importuned to become an
agent of the combine. He was con-
Quoting a thriving business and be-
lieved he was strong enough to buck
the trust" Thereupon. the defend
ants instructed their agents to re-
frain from purchasing rags or bot
ties from any peddler who did not
sell exclusively to the trust, under
threat that the refusal of dealer
would deprive that dealer of mar
ket for his second hand goods. Boy
chase from peddlers generally, and
his business was steadily diminished
and impaired.
MONOPOLY CREATED
These acts, states the complaint.
constitute a combination, monopoly
and trust and an unlawful conspiracy
in restraint of trade" Boyarsky
charges thathe was illegally deprived
of legitimate profits and demands
damages of $4,000 for his reim-
bursement and punitive damages of.
SIC. 900 additionally.
This trust was a money maker
from the start" declared Attorney
Schmitt today. 1T cornered the mar
ket drove the little fellows from
business and sold the second hand
clothes and rags to a paint company
for roofing material at good profit.
That they were able to pay their
agents a commission of 81 a ton
shows that. The bottle branch of
the trust was equally remunerative.
And the operations extended over the
Pacific coast

Parker's arguments that a man can
be impeached for not only any offense
but for no offense. That, IL for any
reason, political or otherwise, it is
