NEW TRIAL GRANTED
TO THE CASH REGISTER
TRUST" OFFICIALS

Cincinnati, O.-The United States
circuit court of appeals reversed
Monday the lower court in the case
of the government against John H.
Patterson, president, and &c other of
ficials or former officials of the Ma
tional Cash Register company of
Dayton, and remanded it back to the
district court for a new trial.
The upper court based it's action
upon its finding that the first count
of the indictment which charged the
defendants with being guilty of con-
spiracy to restrain trade in violation
of the Sherman act, had not been
proved by the evidence, and that the
second and third were defective and
should never have been permitted to
enter into the trial of the case in
the lower court. 1t is held that con.
spiracy had to be proved as existing
within three years of the time the in,
dictment was drawn and that the
government failed to offer convicting
evidence to sustain these charges.
Mr.. Patterson and his associates
were found guilty of violating the
Sherman antitrust law and sen
fenced by United States District
Judge Hollister to serve prison
terms and fined.

General Trade Conditions.

r. G. Dun & Co. says: Conditions
in business are very much mixed. To
tai transactions are still below those
of recent years. There is a large at
tendance of retail distributors in the
textile markets and they buy often
but as a rule in comparatively small
lots for immediate needs, and keel
their stocks low.
Many of the cotton mills are run
ming on full time and there is a salts
factory business in c%lothings. Some
improvement is noted in the shoe in
dustry, but conditions are still fal
from normal. Ship building is very
active. Large sales are reported o.
automobiles. Commodity prices are
generally lower.
Evidence accumulates of a trans
ference of financial power and com
mercial opportunities to the United
States from the warning nations across
the Atlantic, and that the internationa
exchanges will favor this country t.
such an extent that there will be
heavy balance in our favor, not mere
ly in merchandise, as usual, but in tn
entire aggregate of foreign transae
tions.

FRUIT SHIPPERS ORGANIZE
Plan to Regulate the Marketing OF
Standard Fruits.

Seattle.-Representative fruit ship
pers from all over the fruitgrowing
section of the northwest met at Seat
tie last week for it's object the
adoption of a plan to regulate the
marketing of standard fruits.
A permanent organization, having
as a name the Northwest Fruit Ship
pers' council, was effected, with men,
bership open to shippers handling
d~eciduous fruits in Washington, Ore
gon and Montana.
1t was decided that a shipper han
ding so cars and more per year
would be eligible to the organization
Dues were fixed at 500 a year. Ihe
object Of the association is to CO
operate with growers councils in all
matters and to establish a traffic bu-
reau to obtain freight rates, study
market conditions and collect and
distribute data relating to the fruit
business.
A governing board of IA members
was also decided upon to be selected
as follows:
One representative from the North
Pacific Fruit Distributors, II from
the Northwest Fruit exchange, two
from Wenatchee outside of the above
named organizations, two from the
Yakima valley and one each from
Hood River, Lewiston, Idaho; Clarks
ton, South Idaho, Montana, Spokane
Rogue River, Ore, Walla Walla and
Western Oregon.
w. H. Paulhamus, Truman Butler
and C. T. Haskell represented the
f~ruitgrowers at the meeting.
An attempt made by North Yakima
shippers to designate the region wesi
of the Mississippi as a territory fol
cash sales, but permitting the use o.
an auction and consignment system IL
the eastern markets was lost in the
meeting, it being the general impress
sion that such a system would no
protect the main markets upon which
the shippers are dependent.
w. F. Gwin, manager of the North
western Fruit exchange, advised as
opening of new territory rather thar
flooding the present cities with ex
cess fruit.

Air Craft Succeeds in Blowing Up a
Train-Severe Fighting Lasted for
Several Days-kaiser Lost 1000

London, March IA, 9:35 p. m.-The
war office tonight made the following
announcement:
"A heavy counter attack delivered
by the enemy Saturday afternoon and
? several minor counter attacks earlier
in the day all were repulsed.
Judging by observations on various
positions of the field of battle, and by
statements of prisoners of whom
there now are 1920, the enemy's losses
must have been very heavy, and can
not have fallen far short of 10000
men within three days.

blown up by u aircraft Sunday

While the war office makes no men
tion OF the region where the foregoing
operations took place, it is probable
that they occurred in the vicinity OF
Neuve Chapelle, where severe fighting
has been in progress for several days.

Russias' Great Man.


Count Witte was regarded as in
some respects one of the most re
markable men his country had pro
duced. but his reputation was even
greater abroad than at home. Through.
out his career, during which he &C
complished much for Russia, he had
many and powerful enemies, although
his great ability and remarkable ca.
pacity for work never were CUES
toned.
Regardless Of his work as a states
man, his chief fame in Russia rests
upon his development of m~anufactur.
ing industries, the expansion OF rail
roads and the placing Of the monetary
system upon a gold basis.
His policy in regard to Manchuria
which he declared to develop only
from a commercial and not from q
political viewpoint, resulted in pow.
erful intrigues against him which re
suited in his removal in 1903 as min
lister Of finance. He went for a time
to Paris, but returned to Petrograd
when the Russo-Japanese war was in
full swing.
He neither offered nor was asked
for advice in regard to the conduct OF
the struggle, but when Theodore
Roosevelt, then president of the
United States, prevailed upon the
emperor to consider terms OF peace,
the tide turned and practically the
entire nation united in demanding
the selection of White as plenipoten.
tiary. At the Portsmouth confer
ence he succeeded in gaining terms
under which Russia was not obliged
to pay a cash indemnity to Japan
This was considered a remarkable
achievement and White again became
a hero in his own country. The EN-
peror rewarded him for his services
by appointing him a count.
White, throughout his career, was
regarded as a supporter of the Jews
1t was one of his ambitions after
his second marriage to secur socia
recognition of his wife, who was {
Jewess. Victory came at last wher
he was given the title of count ant
appointed premier. The empress re
ceived Countess White at the palace
at Peterhof, imperial recognition be
ing the open-sesame to all doors.
