Twenty years ago the courts held
that refining sugar was not trade

by the sherman antitrust law. No
court would have the temerity 10

How the trust ayailed itself of that

are few of the facts as he stated
them;
THAT by using its watered stock
to buy refineries in Philadelphia, in
St Louis and in New Orleans, the
American Sugar Refining Company
closed the avenues through which
the Louisiana raw sugar reached the
consuming public. and thereby made
itself virtually the sole buyer for
such sugar

ing Company closed, and kept idle, a
refinery in New Orleans and one in
Philadelphia. each with a capacity of
