DEMOCRATS MUST
 SHOULDER BLAME
Republicans At Caucus Decide to Drop Fight Against Administra-
 tion's Trust Program.

WASHINGTON, July 29.-The ad- ministration's trust program will be permitted to go through without further opposition from the .Repub- licans. This decision was reached last night at a Republican caucus and the announcement was made to. day by Senator Shoot.
 Senator Shoot stated that the Re- publicans would make no further ef- fort to fight President Wilson's trust program. but would place the respon- sibility on the shoulders of the Dem ocrats., He said: "The business, of the country is in deplorable con- dition. There are more idle men than ever before in the history of the country. This was brought about through the suspension of operations by, capital which is uncertain of the outcome. The Democrats must an. swer to the country"
 President Wilson has shown de- termination to push his trust regula- ,tion program. through during the present session and will brook no in reference even from the members of his own party. The Republicans re- alize that the president will be able to secure the passage of the meas | ;ures despite any opposition they may be able to put forth. Then. too, the fall elections are approaching and many of the Republicans are anxious to get back to their constituencies, from which they have been absent for more than 2 year.

BRUSSELS, July 29.-Nestor Will lert, one of the most prominent bank ers of this city, was today sentenced to serve ten years in the 'peniten, tiary and five of his accomplices were given terms ranging from one to five years.

 The Ghent-Terneuzen railroad is the only privately owned Belgian railroad and was financed through the bank of which Willert and his associates were directors. Some time ago the government was requested by stockholders to investigate the af- fairs of the company, as it was claim ed that it had been capitalized far beyond its real value. The investi. eation resulted in the disclosure that Willert and his associates had not only overcapitalized the railroad but had overissued stock to the value of s3.5oo,0oO.
