COMMISSION MEN FILE
DEMURRERS TO CHARGE
Twenty-One Merchants Under In.
dictment for Violating Sherman
Law Present Answers.

Demurrers were filed today by
twenty-one of the thirty-one produce
commission merchants who were in
diCted September last on a charge
OF violating the Sherman antitrust
law in boosting the price of food
stuffs.
The accused say the indictment is
bad in substance. in that it does not
allege that any so-called agreement
among them did in fact restrain un-
reasonably the trade. either of the pro-
ducer outside the District or the con-
sumer within the District of Columbia.
Say Indictment Is Vague.
according to counsel they, will urge
that the indictment is vague and un-
certain. and does not disclose whether
il intends to charge the several defend
ants with combining to reduce the
prices to be paid shippers of country
produce or to increase the prices to
consumers of such produce.
The Indictment also fails to allege.
it is claimed. that the producers or
shippers.were under any sort of COM
pulsion. influence or restraint with
reference to the price they would or
should accept for their produce.
Neither does the indictment allege. IL
is pointed out, that the producers or
shippers were limited in their oppor-
tunity to sell their produce to consum-
ers in the District of Columbia.
Alleged Defects.
The indictment is defective. say the
accused merchants. in that it does not
allege that the defendants entered into
Il combination in unreasonable re-
straint of trade in respect to the con-
troll of the selling markets open to the
shippers and producers or to the buy
ing market open to the consumers.
Attorneys Charles A. Douglas. Walter
A johnson, c.. NJ. Fulton and ]. Bar
rett Carter represent the merchants
who filed the demurrers. Argument on
the demurrers may be set down for
next Saturday.

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, November 23-The cot
ton market at Liverpool made a steady
enough showing early today to sug-
gest that there had been no material
increase in southern offerings over
Sunday. and the opening here was
steady at an advance Of . to s points
There was some scattered local and
southern selling around the opening
prices. and the later months eased
off a point or two, but there was CON
tinued covering by December shorts
and the strength of the near position
served to steady the balance of the
list. December sold up to 7.31. or
5 points net higher. before the end Of
the first hour. while spring and sum-
mer deliveries ruled about l to points
net higher.
Futures opened as follows: Decem-
Der, 1.26; January. 7.4S: February,
7.5S: March, 1.65: May, 1.se: July, 7.97
October, 8.12.
After selling about to Il points
net higher, the market turned a shade
easier under realizing and increased
offerings Of December. General bust
ness remained very quiet, however, and
prices held about 2 to points net
higher shortly after midday.

The Merchant
Who Anticipates

To anticipate is to think
and to act ahead
1t is not only looking To
the futurc--it is acting be-
fore the future happens.
The clever retailer is the
one who anticipates the
wants of the consumer.
In this city there are
thousands of consumer
wants created by advcrtis-
ing in these columns.
On the shelves of every
store are products that will
fill these wants.
To bring the consumer and
his wants together. the
merchant who anticipates
new business keeps a spc-
cial. eye on the products
advertised in The Star. He
keeps these articles out IN
the light where the con
sumner who has been intiu-
enccd by the advertising
will see them.
Anticipation is good
word in the making OF Gus
