 THE SUGAR TRUST

New Orleans, July 10.-Through Att torney General Ruffin G. Pleasant. the state of Louisiana today sought a receiver for the American Sugar Re- fining company and instituted custer proceedings to forever bar the com pany from doing any business in Louisiana. The action was filed in the civil district court.
 The state charges that the American Sugar Refining company has been guilty of offending the antitrust and anti-monopoly laws of the state; of having engaged in conspiracy to force down the price of raw sugar and to enhance the price of refined sugar for speculative purposes, thereby con- spring to restrain trade and com merce within the state.
 Governor Hall stated that the cases against the sugar trst would be wig orously prosecuted.

Prussian Casualties in Sou- chez Fighting Described
 as Incredible"
RUSSIANS CLAIM
 ENEMY DROPS BACK
Berlin and Vienna Strangely Silent as tO Progress of War in Southern P0- 1and--FrCncli Wearing Down Pro.
 cess Shows Results.

London, July 10.-Officia1 reports from Paris and Berlin report merely isolated local encounters with artil- lery actions calculated only to keep adversarios from debouching for at tack.
 Unofficial accounts of the progress ot the fighting. particularly in north ern France. however, indicate that the wearing down process to which the German line has been subjected is at last showing results. German casu- alties on this front since the begin ming of June are estimated in these reports at no less than 100000.
 The German losses in the Souchez region resulting from the recent de- termined offensive of the French are described as incredible"
 Further to the south and east the French have successfully resisted ter rife onslaughts made with prodigal reoknessness, and in the Argonne re- zion have appreciably bent the line of the German crown princes army.
 Berlin, summarizing the days events in the west, says military activ- itv there was "only slight along the entire front"
 Capture by assault of French trench projecting from the line in Champagne. With isolated fighting at close quarters between Ally, and Apremont, are Berlin's most import ant claims.
 Paris chronicles the repulse of Ger man attacks against the French Do- sition on the Angres-Souchez road end against some of those inn Cham paene and Lorraine.
 Belgian troops repelled a German night attack at the famous ferry mans house" on the right bank of the Yser, north of Ypres.
