The passengers keep their seats and are taken across the river in about five minutes. On the opposite side the car WASHINGTON, July 20.—The Chinese minister has just re- he, hardly had time deal of speculation as to its origin and ul- terior purpose. Mr. Richards explained that he had in- troduced the bill by request and did not know who was behind it. It was at first stated that the bill was introduced in the interest of the St. Louis Transit Co., but this was vigorously denied by President Edwards Whitaker, who said he had something else to do besides refute lies. The names printed above are those which appear on the Madison County records at Kdwardsville.as the incorporators of the new company. At least two of these gentlemen are heavily interested in the St. Louis & Suburban road and none of them has ever been Known to have had any connection with the St. Louis Tran- Bit Co. Messrs. Travis, Burrowes and Warnock are members of the law firm which repre- sents the new company as counsel. The proposed route of the new road is run off the boat and onto the surface tracks, “It would be an easy Louls & Illinois Transit Co. to obtain the right to operate such a ferry transfer. It already has a right of way extending to the river front at Venice and it could e asily purchase private property along the river front on this side. Al] that it would then have to do would be to obtain a government license to operate a boat between the two landings. I understand that the company ultimately intends to run to Alton.” There is already under way another project by which East St. Louis, Venice, Madison, Granite City and Alton are to be connected by a street railway sytem. The franchises are held by the Mississippi Val- od Transit Co., which already has a portion its system in operation. Ex-Councilman p Hae P. Heckel is manager of this line and its attorney is William Warnock. who is also one of the incorporators of the St. Louis & Illinois Transit Co It is pointed out by the promoters of both roads that St. Louis is not sufficiently in matter for the St. touch with ceived a cipher cable dispatch from United States Minister Con- It is in the state department cipher and is transmitted and the Shanghai Taoti. signed in English with the name 4 ger. through the Tsung Li Yamer It con- tains about fifty words and is “Conger.” At 9:45 Minister Wu handed the Conger dispatch to Secre- tary Hay, who immediately called in his assistant secretaries and the many ‘gd0d towns on the east side of the river and that transporta- tion facilities are hampered because of the high passenger rates charged across the two bridges. Those interested in the pro- posed lines say that with direct trolley car service fares could be reduced at least three-fourths. It is apparent that ff the Richards bill granting a franchise to the St. Louis & [ilinois Transit Co. is passed the company will be in competition with the St. Louis Transit Co. from North Market street to ©'Fallon street, and possibly to Chouteau avenue. Under the ruling of the Supreme Court of Missouri the new company will have a right to operate on the transit company’s tracks, the only requirement being that it pay the St. Louis Transit Co. a reason- able amount for the privilege and assume is specified in the ordinance introduced by Councilman Richards. A right of way is asked from the western approach of the Merchants’ Bridge south along the rivpr| front to North Market street. thence west, to Broadway, south on Broadway to the in- tersection of Broadway and Third street at O’Fallan street, thence south on Third street to Chouteau avenue. On last Saturday the same company was mage te a franchise to operate an electric Ine through Venice, Ill., from the _ river} front. Investigation by the Post-Dispatch shows | that these movements are the first steps’ in a well-organized plan to provide St. Louis! with interurban street railway faci:ities'| which will place it within easy reach of the| more important towns on the opposite side} of the river. Theodore Meyer, one of the incorporators | private secretaries, and work was begun translating the cipher. No doubt is expressed by state department officials as to the au- thenticity of the message. It is understood that the message is dated the 18th. quam The following statement has been given out at the state department: On the 11th of this month the state department communicated a brief mes- sage asking tidings of Minister Conger in the state department code. Minister Wu undertook to get this into Minister Conger’s hands, if he were alive. He succeeded in doing this. This morning the state department received a telegram from Consul-General Goodnow at Shanghai saying: “The governor of Shan Tung informs me that he has received today a cipher message from Conger, of the 18th.” A few minutes later Minister Wu appeared at the state department with a telegram from Taotai Shang, dated July 20, which had been received by Minister Wu at 8:30 o’clock this morning, reading as follows: ings,”’ caid “T have to think of the exact effect of the news on the oa ion, but it removed one of the great elements of doubt and leaves us free Pe hope for the rescue of the foreigners in exKxin “Tt is a great victory for the state de- partment of the United States.

If they have been able to stand the siege for al- most a month after the outside world had given up hope there seems no reason to fear rae they will not be able to hold out a lit- tle longer.”’ “Do you regard the.faeg that the message is in the state department code as conclu- sive evidence that it emanated from Minis- ter Conger?” he was asked. ‘Might it not country in Christendom was emp! oyit g eve | | Conger and getting di rect | “There is now good reason ~ believe that | at the earliest possible moment. While Secretary Hay believes the news from Pekin, there are others among Wash- ington officials who cannot reconcile some of the seeming discrepancies that crop out when the dispatch from Minister Conger is analyzed.

This confirme information previously ob- taine by the Post-Dispatch that the ulti- mate purpose is to operate lines under one management on both sides of the river with connection by bridge or otherwise.

EMPLOYES' WELFARE AS ASSETS, When the 2000 employes of the Chicago Traction Co. called upon President Koach to thank him for an increase of wages and other benefits, he said that hereafter “the welfare of the men would be considered a part of the company’s as- sets.”’ Every good business man will that in adopting policy President Roach is actuated by a wise business prin- ciple. The good will of the workers in an enterprise, whi¢h is secured by attention to their welfare, is of great value ih carrying on that enterprise and making it successful. That it means dollars and cents in the pockets of the stockholders is proved by the losses of the St. Louis Transit Co., which ehose to follow the opposite policy. A franchise monopoly is bad enough under any circum- stances. When it disregards not only the welfare of its em- ployes but the interests of ‘the public, it becomes a public menace. In contrast with the humane and enlightened pol- icy adopted by the Chicago Traction Co., the policy followed by the St. Louis Transit Co. appears the more reprehensible. = = i a 4 We may not be able to make our Chinese indemnity cover our heavy Philippine war tax. &- ee NEMESIS IN THE JESTER CASE: The full daily reports of the Jester murder case in the Post-Dispatch make interesting reading—a crime story of rea] life, surpassing fiction in its dramatic features. It is now 29 years since young Gilbert Gates set out from home on a hunting trip and incidentally fell in with one Alexander Jester. After 10 or 15 years had passed since this boy’s mysterious disappearance, the probabilities all seemed to indicate that, if he had been foully dealt with, his mur- derer would never be discovered. And yet, after oblivion had apparently covered the crime and the grave had closed on over two-thirds of a generation, a gray-headed man is on trial for the murder, and witnesses are coming forward, as if miraculously preserved, to reproduce every fact and inci- dent of that far-off event, as if it had happened yesterday. The Nemesis that follows crime never really sleeps. While life endures the criminal is never secure. Sooner or later he learns that “‘the wages of sin is death.’’ > ae ~ this see It is not long since the Transit Company’s-most competent dynamiter got into trouble, and now its most capable burg- lar has to be locked up. Mr. John J. McCann has every reason to feel satisfied with his experiment in martyrdom. The widespread interest in the case as reflected in the large numbers of letters of sym- pathy from all classes of citizens goes to show that the prin- ciple for which he suffers is not unfamiliar and will not be without support. “The attention that I had hoped would be drawn to the lesson I am trying to convey seems to have taken hold al- ready,” said Mr. McCann to the Post-Dispatch Thursday morning. “This sort of agitation is what will have a more powerful influence than years of argument before equaliza- tion boards and courts.”’ No. 239 is right. He is now making a convincing argument before the court of public conscience against an unjust tax system, fastened upon the community by privilege holders, who refuse to pay for valuable franchises given them by the State. The contrast is too obvious for emphasis. It speaks for itself. = = = ~~ Fr The President’s Cabinet clerks pose as a conservative body.

The first date was when the Post- Dispatch called the attention of the Federal authorities to the need of cleaning and renovation. The last date is that on which the work is to be completed. But the delay repre- sents the time taken by that vast body, the United States Government, in putting the necessary machinery in motion. The Post-Dispatch and the public-spirited citizens of St. Louis secured the improvement before the end of 1899. And now that the work is being done, we can all rejoice in the good result attained. A thoroughly clean, well-flluminated, newly painted custom house and postoffice, with up-to-date elevators and other ap- pliances, will be a boon to St, Louis. It will be the first great improvement preparatory to the World's Fair. It will be an object lesson in what must be done in other directions to make the city presentable for 1903. Our Congressmen and others who have brought about this happy Outcome are to be congratulated. It is an example of what can be done by intelligent perseverance, stimulated by @ newspaper whose ideal is public service. Whoever may have been the assassin of Goebel, there ap- pears to have been a good deal of talk about killing the Senator before he was murdered. - = = = TUAN AND NAPOLEON, Is Prince Tuan the Napoleon of the coming century? Is the chaos in Cdina at the end of the nineteenth century to throw up a colossal personal force, anarchy in France did at the end of the eighteenth? Prince Tuan has suddenly appeared as the master mind of the Chinese world. If report is true he has deposed and im- prisoned or Killed the imbecile Emperor, pushed aside the once_all-powerfu: Empress Dowager, orgapized and put into the fleld a well-equipped and disciplined army of 1,000,000 men, announced the independence and integrity of China as his object, and declared war against all the powers of the outside world. What manner of man is he wifo has done al! > a as | tnis with what was thought to be most unpromising ma- | terial? Unorganized strength is more helpless than weakness. But the strength of China when organized into power by a great constructive mind and directed by representative Chinese is likely to be a menace to Christendom. Prince Tuan seems to be such a representative man. He embodies the intellect and energy of his race. A Mongolian of genius, will he re- peat on a larger field the prodigies of the Corsican genius? Such men are not accidents. If Prince Tuan is to act that great part it is because the world, or at least his world, has need of him. If the Chinese idea has any vital force in it, it will not go begging for a man to affirm it. The appearance of this savage personality goes to show that China is not decadent, but full of the sap of life. The Post-Dispatch extra issued at 9:30 this muerning gave the public the best news that has come from Pekin for weeks, in the cipher dispatch from Minister Conger, which announced the safety of the legations at the time it was sent. The Washington officials affirm belief that the message is authentic, because it was written in the State Department cipher. It is barely possible that, Minister Con- ger having been murdered and his cipher code having fallen into the hands of the Chinese, a message may have been constructed as coming from him. Again, the message being undated and the date depending wholly upon the testimony of Chinese officials, it is possible that a message sent at an earlier date is now forwarded as an answer to the State De- partment’s query. The absence of the date in the dispatch is unfortunate, but dé¢spite_this circumstance the public is justified in indulging 8 apo 8 that the news of the safety of Minister Conger and gther/refugees in the British legation was assured on the 1Sth. thing transmitted from the e news is worth more than any- shina since Pekin was assailed.

Do we want to participate in a general war over China? That such a war is imminent is apparent to the most skep- tical. That the powers will act together merely for the restoration of order is wildly improbable. When they fall out, are we to take sides and involve the nation in a long and desolating conflict in which we have comparatively. dit- tle interest, a conflict the end Which cannot be foreseen? Mr. Hay is fruitful of fair words. Technically and for- mally his attitude is perfectly correct. We are assured that the United Staies Government is determined to remain aloof, that partition is not desired, that only equal trade advan- tages are claimed. Mr. McKinley has undertaken to pilot the country through the troubled sea of diplomacy without the aid of Congress. Mr. Hiay says we stand aloof, but Mr. McKinley is sending troops to China by the thousands, and preparations for a great struggle are visible in the War Department. He is pushing into the thick of the conflict. How are the acts of the President to be reconciled with the professions of the Secretary of State? Nobody censures the President for doing all in his power to protect American interests in China, but he seems to be drifting into actual war. Is this desirable? Are we prepared to sacrifice thousands of American lives, waste enormous treasure, pile up another war debt and as- Sume a pension roll in addition to the $150,000,000 we are al- ready paying? And for what? Where is the gain in glory, national profit or commercial advantage? Will Mr. Mckinley let the nation drift down the rapids?

He knee-haitered som: of the mules, which soon discovered a email pan of rainwater and some grass. lor the present there was little danger of discovery unless they were tracked by the whee! marks, and it was quite possible that th two owners of the mules were étill anchored on the banks of the Vet. “We ought to able said Hardy presently, and after he had a ske he climbed to the top of the aii, aoc was swarming with 6corpions. From the summit of the kopje he could see the roofs of Boshof, fifteen miles away There were soldiers—of which army he could not tell—in the distance. Hardy could even hear the distant rumble of artillery. He clambered down the scorpion-haunted rot back to camp. mt conn Aig Bes upon sundown when Blake woke, and, to his companion’s intenée re- ‘ef. the man was at once saner and weaker. It took a long explanation to make him understand how they came by the buggy and the mules. But when it was explained he remembered it all. “I hope the poor devils I tied up are all right,’’ he said. And so did Hardy, though to him all that portion of their adventure was no more than a dream. Then the sun sank, and the shadows cov- ered the veldt, and they inspanned the mules and started south. “T heard guns today,” said Tardy. “What did I tell you?’ «asked Flake. ‘Why am I so muzzy-headed, Hardy? But Hardy did not tell him about the mor- phine. He talked of everything that would soothe his companion as they drove with difficulty over the veldt, going at a walk. The moon now would have been of infinite use to them. But at one donga which in- terrupted them Hardy discovered a cross- ing, and, by the marks of wheels, knew he was going on something which a South Af- rican might have called a road. Sometimes they were able to trot and go fast. By an hour after dawn—for they ventured on that extra hour—they were only some 10 or 15 miles north of the Modder and well in sight of the Kimberley-Bloem- fontein road which runs north of that river's banks. And all that long dawthey heard sounds of distant artillery. Sometimes they de- clared it was not so distant, that it came nearer and nearer. “] tell you we have struck at their cen- ter,”’ said Blake. ‘“‘Now Cronje must 100k out.”’ That afternoon, of the kopje under which they were camped. Blake and Hardy saw a great cloud of dust miles away to the south and west. “What is it?’’ asked Hardy. Blake did not know. Yet in Eneland thev knew very afterward that the British cavalry in Kimberley, and that the Boers Magersfontein could hardly escape. Had the two men who saw this cloud of dust rising like a pillar of fire against the western sun known it they would not have planned to drive south right into the issuing swarm of i hornets, smoked out of their den at last. About midnight they checked the mules. ‘“TListen!”’ said Blake. “T hear nothing.”’ ‘*Listen!”’ “Tl hear—nothing!

They walked with them for half a mile and then dropped behind and escaped them. They dropped into the rear of the column and marched with their heads down, just as their new companions and enemies marchea. There was something hideous and yet ap- pallingly attractive in the aspect of things. At one time they were by an ox-wagon and then close to an ambulance. Again they mingled with silent men on foot. Once a big bearded man passed them on horseback and they wondered if this were indeed the fighting Boer general, who looked as If he were to be a general no more. Then they were at the very tall of the column. Juet as day broke they slipped off the road and sat behind a rock. “I'll remember this to my dying day.”’ sald Hardy. “It has been a horrible night.” Blake nodded. “It was a bit queer,” he said. “May I take my bandage off mow?" le was very amenable to suggestion and had ceased to be difficult. “T don't see why not,”’ said Hardy. And then the east opened up and it was day, a cool and pleasant morning. Afar off they heard the dwindling sound of the an- guished army of the night.

_ BUELOW 3 WILLING THE YOUNG CATCHER CONSENTS TO HIS TRANSFER TO DENVER. NEW YORK BEATS ST. LOUIS. a The Cardinals Open Their Eastern Tour With an Honorable Defeat. Fred Buelow, the promising young catche- er, who was farmed to the Denver Club of the Western. League by President Robison of the St. Louls Club, wag in this city Thurs- day and denied the recently printed that he had refused to go to Denver, Buelow on the day the Cardinals left for the East secured the permission of Manager Tebeau to visit his home in Detroit, but W'th the proviso that should return to Bt. Louis on last Monday. statement he While in the Michigan city he received ay S. Muckenfi who, act- advised him of the fact Tebeau's telegram from B. Iss, ing for Mr. Robison, that he had been loaned to George Denver Club and ordered him to return to St. Louls at once, so the necessary airange- ments could be made for his temporary transfer to the Western League. The telegram was received at Detroit 6 o’clock in the afternoon and Buelow left that night for Cleveland, intending to :eave the Ohio city Monday evening for St. Louls, He missed the train, however, and was com- pelled to wait until the following day, ar- riving in St... Louis Wednesday. He re- ported Thursday morning at League Park, signified his willingness to abide by Mr. Robison’s wishes, and will leave Friday evening for Des Moines, Io., to join the Den- ver Club. at Buelow was at the Fair Grounds Thurs- day afternoon and between races discussed his transfer to Denver. He said: ‘I have no idea how the story originated that I would not go to Denver. I have not com- municated with any one in St. Louis since being advised of the fact that I was loaned to George Tebeau's club and wu not even speak of the matter to Detroit news- paper men, in fact but one Detroit re- orter knew:that 1 was in that city and be did not mention the fact in his paper. “The story that I went to Detroit after ‘J had been loaned to the Denver Club is all buncomb. I1 would not have left St. Louis at all if Manager Tebeau had not given me permission to do so. The tele- gram I received trom MuckKenfuss is proot of the fact that I left before the trans- fer was made and that the management was aware of my absence from the city. I will leave for Des Moines Friday evening to join my new teammates, they playing iné@tnat city on Saturday and Sunday. |! hope to return to St. Louis at the end of the Western League season.” The St. Louis Baseball Club started their eastern series with an inglorious defeat at the hands of the New York tail-enders, now styled the ‘‘Rejuvenated Giants.” Mercer and Young were the pitchers, and though the ‘‘ardinals secured one more hit off the New York twirler than the Giants did off Young, they fulled to bat consecutively while “Cy’’ w clouted in bunches. But one error is recorded against both teams and Keister was the guilty party, he muftiing BKurkett's throw in the first inning, allowing the Gianis to score @ run. The lone misplay did not affect the result, however. Wallace's phenomenal fielding at short was by far the feature of the game, and he was liberally applauded for his great work. His best piece of fielding was a sen- Sational one-hand pickup of Davis’ sharp grass-cutter in the fifth inning. eta LIPTON WILL WAIT. perfect of very entries, and the who are carded championship the centers as the high to go. gzreal- will of properly 1904).

The dead are: Mrs. John Lingo, her young Joan, and Mary Berhock. In the middle of the afternoon the day became like night and clouds gathered quickly over the sky. Then the rain came. It fell for 30 minutes in a perfect torrent, terrific thunder and light- ning. The stream of Long run, at the foot of the town, empties into Short creek, near the settlement, and the dwellings of miners line both barks of the small creeks.

FRIDAY—ST, LOTIS POST-NTSPATCH -—JULY 20, 1900.¥ el JUMPED TRUM EADS BRIDE —_— Sam Van Sant, a Negro, Wanted to Die. DROWNED IN THE RIVER. LEFT A PAPER BEARING NAME AND ADDRESS. Employed by a Tailoring Firm as a Porter, Was a Faithful Worker and Appeared to Have No Troubles. Samuel Van Sant, a negro employed as @ porter for King, the tailor, at Sixth and Olive streets, jumped from the middle span of the Eads Bridge into the Mississippi river at 8 o’clock Friday morning, and was drowned. The suicide was premeditated. Van Sant left a piece of paper, on which his name and address were written, but no mention wes made of the reason that prompted his act. He was 30 years and lived at Twenty-first and Chestnut streets. One of the salesmen at King's met t:iim at the store at 7 o'clock Friday morning. He asked the salesman for a piece of paper. Asked why he wanted it he replied that a friend of his was going to leave the city and he wanted to give him his address. Soon after he left the store. His employers expressed surprise \ hen in- formed of his death. He had worked for them, they said, six years and was regarded as faithful and industrious. Jie appeared to have no troubles. Van Sant came to St. Louis from Missis- sippi several years ago. He was single. Van Sant was seen to leap from the bridge by George Conley, conductor of car No. 9 of the bridge line. Conley said that he had 16 passengers on the car which was east-bound. Several of the passengers saw the leap. Conley said he noticed that the negro appeared to be in a great hurry and when he reached the middle pier he hurriedly removed his blue serge coat and vest and laid them down on the bridge. He then laced his white straw hat on top and astily clambered over the railing. He did not hesitate, but plunged head first down into the water. Conley could not see him as he struck. He signalled the motorman to stop and ran to the rail and looked over. The body did not rise in his view. Conley gathered up the clothing and turned them over to Pa- trolman Regan, who took them to the Carr Street Police Station. In the coat pocket was found the slip of paper on which was written, “Sam Van Sant, King the Tail- CITY NEWS. We think the printed Lawns and Dimities most charming this season!!

Arnuo has an international reputation as a confidence man. Chief of Detectives Desmond says he is regarded as one of the shrewdest criminals in America. Many St. Louisans know him to their sorrow. It was at the instance of? several of Arnuo’s fellow-countrymen in this city that he served a term of three years at the Missouri penitentiary. ie was released last week, and, learn- ing that he was cultivating some of his old St. Louis acquaifitances, Chief Des- mond detailed Detectives Shevlin and Will- iams to arrest him.

Both smiled when Arnuo was confonted with the state- ment that he intended to resume operations here. ‘‘I guess I’m free to do as I please now,’ he sald, with some show of dehance. “You can't do anything to me until you prove I've done something.’ At the same time he exhibited a revol- ver, but this was promptly taken from. him and he was marched to the Four Courts. “Hold for Chief Desmond,’’ was marked opposite the names of Arnuo and Martini o nthe police blotter. Chief Desmond quickly communicated the fact of Arnuo’s and Martini's arrest to other cities and word came from Boston, Mass., that the former was wanted there. Chief Kipley of Chicago expressed a de- Sire to interview Martini, who he believes is an erstwhile resident of the lake city. Martini is 35 years old, and "boasts that he has achieved some renown as a prize- fighter. He says he has fought a draw Two clever, but Joseph Arnuo, alias ment of the Rev.

He is known to the police of eve ry important city In the United States, and his manipulations have brought keen distress to his native brothers from Maine to Califonnia. His scheming has not been limited to the unintelligent. Joseph Daneri and his broth- er Theodore Daneri. sa.ioon men of St. Louis, can bear witness to this assertion. Arouo arrived in St. Louls for the first time about three and a half years Ago. With nim were four others, two of whom were convicted and sent to the penitentiary, rhe others were tried and met a-similar fate a; Chicago. But Arnuo was looked upon as the leader. One day he stopnved at Joe Daneri's saloon and greeted the proprietor very effusively in his native tongue. Not since he breathed the balmy air of Italy had Joe listened to such a mellifiluoue flow of words. Fach was exceptionally clad to see the other Arnuo stated that he had just come from the West. where he haa made barrels of money. Another of his companions dropped in at that moment and Dane ‘ri was intro- duced to him. After a brief conversation Arnuo remarked that he wanted to deposit his money in bank and asked Daneri to per- form that service for him. Joe agreed, but as evidence that their money would be safe Was requested to make a deposit himself. The étrangers exhibited several thousand doliars and into the satchel containing it Daneri placed a diamond stud, jewelry and cash to the amount of $1000. Then the eéatchel was handed. back to him.

THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA. | : COOKED BY A TRUST] HUNDRED CARLOADS OF _ BA- NANAS DESTROYED IN ILLINOIS. iT Acer 6 6066 CUTE. Pee Illinois Authorities May Proceed Against the Trust for Polluting Streams With Rotten Fruit. One hundred and one carloads of bananas, valued at more than $00,000, have been de- stroyed in Illinois towns in close proximity to St. Louis within the last two days in or- der that the banana trust might maintain the present prices. Bob Milligan, the resident manager of the Fruit Di Co., with offices on the third floor of the Mermod & Jaccard bulid- ing, told the Post-Dispatch -hat he had heard that there were a number of carls.ds of bananas destroyed over in Lilinolis, ut he knew nothing about it himself, and all his information had been gleaned gn the streets, It is stated that zy carioadas were aumped into a creek near Mt. Vernon, ill., while carloads were allowed to “‘cook’’ on the liiinois Central railroad tracks at Asniey, lil. After the bananas were ‘‘cooked"’ they were duniped out on the railroad right of Wuy.to decay. St. Louis dealers in bananas say that no fruit yas been dumped inio the river at this point. Ail bananas sold in St. Jouis are bought from the Il ruit Dispatch Co., com- spatch who was! out | Frank | send | ! Sojourn | moniy known as the trust. Before the tor- mation of the trust the banaijas sold here were shipped into the city and were sold by the commission merchants vn commiis- sion. Now the trust controis the supp .y und the wholesale dealers must uy direct from the trust. The trust maintains a rigid price and will not go below a vertain figure. One big dealer said to the Post-Dis- patch that bananas were now from 2 to ov cents a bunch higher than they were before the trust was crganized. ‘The trust would make the prices higher than now prevails,’ said a dealer ‘but for the fact that when prices are any Aigher than they are now the demand crops vit SO greutly that but a few can ve soid. The trust could find no market for the bananas destroyed and if they had put ihem wun the market they would have had to reduce the price. The bananas at Ashiey were simply left in the cars and the ve@®itilators closed. 12 hours the fruit was choroushiy is no matter how green the fruit the bananas became soft and unfit for food. No one could use them. It is said tour times this season fruit has been dumped in the crecks near Mt. Vernon and the Illinois authorities are contemplating proceeding against the trust for polluting the streains.’”’ Local fruit dealers say that they cannot antagonize the trust as they must depend on them for all their bananas and they fear the trust might find a way 10 retaliate.
