WOMAN SENTENCED TO
DEATH MAY co FREE

HARRISBURG, Pa, Jan. 21,-From
arguments presented before the state
board of pardons today, it is believed
that Mrs. Kate Edwards, who has been
in Jail for more than twelve years un-
der sentence of death for the murder
of her husband, will be liberated. Be-
cause Of her sex no governor since 1901
has signed papers for the carrying out
Of the death sentence,
Mrs. Edwards was arrested in July,
1901, for the murder of her husband
near Stoudsburg A few days later a
negro, who worked in quarry with
Edwards and who had visited the Ed
wards home, was arrested as an accom-
phce. Ten days after his imprisonment,
Mrs. Edwards became the mother of a
negro child. The woman and the ne
gro were convicted and sentenced TO
hang. The cases were taken to the
higher courts without avail and then
to the board of pardons. In 1908 Mrs.
Edwards confessed to the murder and
exonerated the negro. A special act of
the legislature was passed, allowing the
negro new trial, and he was acquitted
Mrs. Edwards has changed since en-.
tering the prison. She has learned to
read and spends much time with books.
When arrested she had six children.
The one born in prison was with her
for three or four years, when it was
placed in the care of charitable per.
sons.

SAYS SUGAR MARKET
IS NOT CONTROLLED
Chairman of Board of Ameri-
can Company Testihes in
Government Suit.

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-Presentation
of evidence by the American Sugar
Refining company in its defense to the
equity suit brought by the government
to have the company declared an un-
lawful monopoly was continued today
with Edwin +. Atkins, chairman OF
the board OF directors, still on the
stand. He gave more testimony by
which the defense hopes to refutc the
contentious of tho government that
the company stifed competition and
controlled prices of the raw mate
rial.
Mr.. Atkins said competition is and
has been severe. Competing refneries
he mentioned were Arbuckle Brothers,
the National, the Warner and the Fed
eral, two small retineries in New Or
leans, one in Texas and one IN Boston
and the American. Hawaiian and the
Pacific reflneries on the Pacific coast.
"Refned sugar is sold through local
brokers buying for customers, who go
from one refinery to another, seeking
the lowest prices,' Mr. Atkins said.
"Brokers an over the United States
act for customers and are in no way
under the control Of the so-called trust.
Changes in sugar prices are posted in
the various refineries.
fPrice cutting is common among
the refineries and was particularly
heavy during the past year. Small
re6ners cannot raise the market, but
can lower 1T,
.sRefiners made little OF no profit
during the year 1918. The American
company has been selling its products
below cost. The severest competition
comes from the beet sugar manufac-
turers. In the last thirty years the
price of sugar to the consumer has
steadily declined.
Mr.. Atkins compared the prices Of
sugar with those of other commodities
during two decades past.
'.The price Of refined sugar today. -
he said. "is materially less than in
1891, while that Of practically every
other commodity is far greater.
The American Sugar Refining com,
pauy charged 1915 hundred pounds
in 1911, while "two other refners
charged higher price, one asking
$50"
Mr.. Atkins will conclude his direct
testimony tomorrow.
