PICTURE TRUST"
NOT EFFECTIVE

~ New York. Nov. 14.-The o-called
moving picture trust, defendant in a
government suit, has not eliminated
competition according to the testi-
n1ony of Frank T. Dyer, president of
the General Film Co., which will be

other firms and other individuals, Is
accused under the Sherman law.
The General Film Co. Dyer said.
has a. net work of film supply ex-
changes across the country. "Our
competitors follow us wherever we
go, he declared. '"Their competition
Is live, keen and often bitter. The
independent film exchanges are often
located in the same building with our
offices and frequently they try to get
offices on lower floors in order to
intercept our customers. There are a
few cities and fewer territories where
our competitors do not reach, but
wherever there Is demand for their
services they are able to serve almost
as we'll as we can
Dyer said the company pays motion
picture actors and actresses as much
as $500 and $1,000 a week. I'VE make
ridiculous offers to get them to work
for u.s." he testified. 1.-THE competition
is also keep for the work of play
rights. There Is open competition be-
tween us and the independent film ex-
changes. It is impossible for US to
unduly raise the price Of films, but we
do get better prices than the others,
as q general thing"

TELLS OF new
REFORM SYSTEM
DR.. STRATToN TOLD FARGO COL.
LEGE STUDENTS OF THE JUN.
ioR REPUBLIc-NEW SYSTEM.
WHICH IS BEING USED TO RE-
FORM YOUTH OF EAST.

Dr. Stratton spoke to the students
OF Fargo college this morning. His
talk was in the nature Of a description
OF most interesting system of re-
forms in Pennsylvania. -
During the summer DR.. Stratton yisA
ited the 'Wm. T.. Carter Junior re-
public five miles from Bethlehem, and
TOOK special pains to bring back the
interesting story to the students &c
Fargo college. v
This Junior republic" is a refor1na-
Tory In which each boy is treated as a.
c1tizen. The youths have their daily
court, with Judge and jury from their
numper; their first and second class
MOTEL, In which varying degrees OF
merit are rewarded; their senate, and
representatives. Each boy Is required
TO keep books, using the aluminium
money Of the institution for tender.
one interesting phase OF this res
formatory Utopia is the Jail and pun
Ishment system. The jail is a. well
built. heavily barred and locked abode.
to which culprits are sentenced by the
student judge. The interesting and
uniqua phase is the use to which the
Jail is put when not occupied by cul-
prtts. 1t serves the purpose OF club
room for the boys, a place to which
they love to resort for chats and leis-
ure. AS soon as a sentenced youth
takes his place In the Jail, the rest are
excluded. His act has thus deprived
the whole community of pleasure. It
shows him how society suffers Sors the
misdeeds of the individual. @
DR.. Stratton investigated the ifaati
tuition thoroughly and told the stil-a

Washington. Nov. 14.-Immigration
officials at Ellis Island, n. Y, were
asked to make q report on the alleged
entrance into the United States under
an assumed name Of former President
Zelaya of Nicaragua. F. H. Larned
acting commissioner general ordered
the report when he read press reports
that the deposed ruler Of the Central
American country was in the country
The subject resulted in considerable
discussion among the diplomatic corps
What Zelayas plans are they said they
could not guess. 1t was recalled that
the Taft administration was anxious
to- secure the punishment of Zelaya,
against whom indictments are said to
no pending now in Nicaragua, for hts
alleged execution without a. fair trial
OF two young Americans, Cannon and
Groce, accused Of having fought with
the revolutionists against him.
While Zelaya could not be held and
tried in this country for crime COM
mitted in Nicaragua, it was pointed
out that if Nicaragua should ask for
his extradition this country doubtless
would honor such request.
