ExtortionAte Prioe Ftxing.

A statement issued by Mr.. Hayward
said IN FART :,
.Our investigation uncarthcd a novel
scheme adopted by these defendants for
extori!onatc price fixing. Ordinarily
among these combinations. we find an
orcn price plan o. an open competition
plan. Tho defendants In this instance
took 10 such chances with each other.
They simply designated one concern as
an exclusive selling agency and that
aIes agency jus; fixed prices for the
GROIN. and allocatcd the various jobs 10
he var.ors companies. To make certain
,nat this price fixing scheme would not
be Handicapped by an over supply or Win
dow. GLASS in the market, they 'ird IN
the labor union in an agreement whlch
insured the curtailment Of the pToduc-
lion Of window Flass. so as I" keep the
SUNNY always sufficiently below tho de-
rland. 10 give the price fixing end OF the
combine a clear field"

 More recent auViccS indicate that tha reported uptinn was not obtained by Dankert, who has apparently had no communication with the lig'htei-i go company. From the same source It is learned that the option was not aC- cepted. It is understood tha, the lighterage company has also conducted various negotiations to ssll the plant but without results. offering the nec- essary equipment at s6O,000. thep rice indicated in the message from Rep Holt. It is understood that tentative offers have been made by undesignated parties to purchase the plant for S40.- 900 the purchasers to give a first mort gage. paying . per cent interest, and paying one fifth of the total purchase price yearly until liquidation. As the company is holding out for $GO. 900. this offer will probably receive scant consideration, at least for the present.

The company has also wired Rep. e. n. Cochran st Juneau, advising him of their intention not O operate and enquir-ing if the territorial legiSIatllrn would assist in financing q sale or SC curing q loan for that purpose. The mt'Ss't se to Rep. Cochran stated in ef- feet that the company would he glad to assist in retaining the plant here but will not assume the larger portion of the financial burdens.
 The Transportation committee of the City Council has favolably report ed on the proposal to organize a local stock company to conduct lighterage but no action has been taken by the general body. The committee will meet again tonight and will probably decide upon some definite line of ac- tion As matters now stand. it is clear that some thing must be done very shortly or Nome will find itselt n a decidedly undesirable situation

The past week has witnessed no change in the hghterage situation and the problem confronting the commun- ity ass ;t result of the withdrawal of the Alaska Lightciast. and Commor- c.al Company is apparently no nearer solution than before. despite. various runOrs tentative proposals ranging frim private purchase of the lig'ltcr- age coInmny's equipment to coopra- tive llghterage organization
 Rep. F.. l.. Holt. chairman of the transportation committee of the lower mouse of the Alaska legislature, wired the Chamber of Commerce Wednesday stating he had received official in- formation that the lighterage company will not operate next summer and ad- vising that the concern wants to dis pose Of its plant.

 Wickersham is in strong favor for .th. decision but strong intluence is be- ing brought to bear to appoint an out s!del'. Secretary Fall favors Wicker sham but there are p-rsistins rtmors that President Harding believes that in the interest of harmony he should appoint a carpet bagger.
 All sections of Alaska, except the Copper River Nall"y and districts dum- mated by Alaska towns are calling non partisan mass meetings Saturday night to pass resolutions against tho appointment of an outsider. Lack of h.I'muny will engender internal stl,ife. and cost the admin nistIn ton the cnnit- dencc and respect of Alaskans Alas- kan's everywhere should pass resolr- tions against ;ill outside appointment and wire Harding and Fall Wieker- sham supporters here in Washington are confident.

 Tbe Chamber of Commerce has also ltcaived a cable from the Alaska Steamship Company askin" for advice regarding whether lightcrage will be provided for the company's boats dur ing the open season and what charac- ter of facilities will be maintained.
 In reply the chamisr informed the steamship company that the lightera ge problem has been under continuous consideration since the decision of the hghterage company was announced. but no definite action had been taken owing to some one having obta ined an option on the plant. the outcome of which was undetermined.
