the local market sent the price on
the creamery extras down to 21c a
pound yesterday on the Los Angeles

son which dealers gave for the de-
cline was the fact that the same grade

Francisco yesterday. Eggs and but
ter were unchanged yesterday on the
local market.
There is a good demand for the
Imperial valley Tuesday, as they are
practically the only white variety now
in the marekt. These lonions are
nearly month earlier than they have
been received before and for that rea
son bring fancy price. According
to the dealers which received them
there will probably be a good supply
within short time.
One house yesterday received a
large shipment of apples from Ore
gon and Washington, the first which
have come to the local market from
that district in over a week. The
apples are Colorado packed and bring
from S1.50 to $1.75 box. Ben Davis

WEAVER TOOK ORDERS
FROM JOHN R. M'LEAN
George Howard Suggested as Presi-
dent of Georgetown Gas Company
by Washington Capitalist.
SOCIETY ."c0TILLI0N LEADER

1t was said by Robert d. Weaver. a
former president Of the Georgetown Gas
Light Company at the hearing yesterday
before Justices Gould and Stafford. OF
the consolidated gas cases, that during
his incumbency as president Of the COM
pany he took orders from John r. Nc
Lean. president of the Washington Gas
Light Company.
Mr.. Weaver testified that he once made
an offer to buy the $3.50 shares of the
company's stock held by the Washington
corporation, and that he offered $50 a
share, making the stock worth 1854. 800
Mr. Weaver said on cross-examination
that he and Henry H. Flather could have
procured the necessary funds to consum.
mate the deal.
To the question whether $50 a share
was not a high price for stock paying
only 81 so in annual dividend, Mr.. Weaver
smiled a Mona Lisa smile and declared
there is a future in Georgetown gas
Mr.. Weaver said that Mr.. Mclean had
suggested the name of George Howard
for president of the Georgetown concern,
and upon inquiry as to the identity of
Mr.. Howard, he was told that Mr.. How
ard was "Washington's cotillion leader. "
Witness asserted that Joseph Letter
offered to sell gas to the Georgetown
company IL given five places on the board
of directors. When the company wished
to issue bonds. witness declared, the
Washington company opposed an issue of
s. 900 900. and insisted that 81, ooo. 900 was
enough, at which figure the bond issue
was placed.
william b. Orme. secretary of the
Washington Gas Light Company, testi-
fled as to the books of the WASHINGTON
company which would show receipts of
dividends from the holdings OF George
town gas stock before the issue of the
certificate in the name Of the Washing

TRUST LEGISLATION
WILL BE ANALYZED
Chamber of Commerce of United
States Will Discuss Presidents
Message Next Week.

| The Chamber of Commerce of the
| United States will hold its second annual
meeting in Washington on February II.
IL and Is. A special program of dis
| cussion of trust legislation has been ar
| ranged to occupy two full days of the
meeting. It is the aim to have this dis
| cussion represent the response of the
| business forces of the country to Presi-
dent Wilson's recent message on cor
porate and trust control. Here are the
| main outlines OF the discussion as it has
been arranged:
Concentration of industry in the United
States-What constitutes ta) unreason-
able restraint Of trade, Cb) unfair COM
petition? In what respects does the
Sherman law require definition?
Should holding companies be abolished?
I<Should interlocking directorates be pro-
hibited-should persons or corporations
be permitted to own control of compet-
ing corporations which between them do
more than half the business in a particu-
lar line?
What should be the rights and privi-
leges Of private parties-(a) In inter-
vention in government action under the
invoking equity powers to restrain VIOLA
tions of the Sherman law, tc) under the
statute Of limitations: Should the statute
be extended in their interests SO as to
run from the date of the entry Of judg-
ment in a government suit?
What should be the functions of a
Federal interstate trade commission: (aD
Administrative powers to restore com
petition and enforce the Sherman law
and new laws defining its scope: (b)
quasi-judicial powers Of legislation; lei
what reauirements as to publicity should
be enforced7
Is the trust form of organization indus
trially efficient?
Among the speakers will be President
Charles r. Van Hise. University of Wis
consin; Louis d. Brandeis. Boston, Mass;
Frederick p. Fish, ex-president American
Telephone and Telegraph Company; Vic
tor Morawetz, New York City; Prof
Henry R. Seager. Columbia University,
New York; Henry R. Towne, president
Yale and Towne Manufacturing Company
and former president Of Merchants As
sociation. New York City.
II the hopes and desires of the makers
of this program are fulfilled, this will
probably prove to be the first intelligent,
responsible discussion of the Presidents
trust program anywhere in the country
The question submitted for consideration
cover precisely the ground that should be
covered At the public hearings before the
committees of the House having the bill
in charge. No satisfactory reason has
been adduced to explain the reluctance
of business men to come forward and tell
what they think about the pending pro-
gram. 1t seems incredible that the drafts
of the various bills which have been
presented should meet in their first form
the complete favor of the business COM
munities When these drafts were SUBJ
nitted it was with the idea that they
would be subjected to the closest scrutiny
and criticism. and considerably revised
and altered before being put on their
final passage.
