EASTMAN co. SUED;
Sl,0O0,000 IS ASKED
Dealer Charges Monopoly and
Trade Damage.

A Sherman law suit for damages sg-
gregating 100000 was filed against
the Eastman Kodak Company yesteyay
in the Federal Court by julius L. Lewis,
a dealer in Photographic materials. at
90 Sixth Avenue. He alleges that
unlawful acts of monopoly have mate
rally damaged his business and limit
ed his profits.
Lewis says he was a customer OF the
Eastman company before It absorbed
several smaller concerns. In 1905 he
bought from another dealer a small
amount of Photographic printing paper
manufactured by the Eastman com
pany, reboXed it and sold it in smaller
lots. The Eastman company sued him
unsuccessfully in the Supreme Court
and. il is said. since that time has
instructed its agents TO sell him no
more supplies.
Because he sold goods made by com
petitors. Lewis says in his complaint,
the Eastman company has retained $500
due him under rebate agreement. In
furtherance OF what he believes was a
conspiracy, the company sued him for
$500 and forfeited the rebates OF
agents from whom he succeeded IL
buying small Quantities of Eastman
supplies.

Hope Useful Ideas Will
Lead to Some Result,
Says "Lokal Anzeiger."
Won REVENTLOW
THROWS COLD WATER
Efforts TO Mediate Cannot Cause
Much Satisfaction in Ger
many, He Says.

Berlin, June president Wilson's
latest speech, a full report OF which
only to-day reached Germany by wire
less, is printed conspicuously in the
newspapers, notwithstanding the fact
that the North Sea battle almost
monopolizes public attention. Owing to
this fact and the lateness in the arrival
of the speech, only brief comment is
made by the papers.
The "Lokal Anzeiger." referring to
President Wilson's proposals for pre-
venting the return of such world wars,
says:
Those are very obvious and useful
ideas. We can only wish that they will
lead TO some positive result at no dis
tant date. Germany at present has only
one task-namely, 70 win an honorable
victory worthy Of the sacrifices it has
made. II Germany then succeeds, with
President Wilson's assistance, in find
ing a feasible way 70 establish the
ionged for understanding among all ma
tions Germany undoubtedly will be will
ing TO adopt it."
Count Won Reventlow devotes col
umns in his newspaper in throwing cold
water on the Presidents speech. He
argues that Americas interests either
are identical with England's or are
running parallel with the interests of
Germanys enemy, and the whole Anglo
Saxon world is against Germany.
Hence. Count Won Reventlow asserts,
President Wilson's efforts to mediate
cannot be greeted with much satisfac-
ton in Germany.
