SCOPE OF SUGAR TRUST

Cent of Nation's Business.
• in the last week witnesses in the gov

f ufa-T Reflnins; Company under the Sher
jn«n anti-trust act have been heard by the
federal grand Jury. This Inquiry was be
pun lart I>ecember, as told exclusively In
The Tribune at the time, and has been
p^^^inf: Intermittently ever since. Tffat
the Department of Jostle* had definitely de

anti-trust law was exclusively told In Wash

Ther* was a hiatus in th* proceedinsrs la
tfci* dty when James R. Knapp. Assistant
Trlted States Attorney, who has charge of
the case, went to Denver and San Fran
cisco t" gather «vid©nc«. He returned
ibout three weeks ago and immediately
* continued his work here.
According la statements issued by a
ftatiftical authority the American Sugar
Refining Company controlled less than half
cf the sugar business last year. The exact
proportion of its business to the whole was
4 : per cent, as given in the reports In
U'jcstion. The government Is not basing
Its investigation upon these or any other
, published figures. It has had access under
eubrnrna to the books and papers of the
company.
In th<* calculations fixing the percentage
c' business the National Pugar Refining
Company is placed among the Independent
companies. Arthur Dormer. treasurer of
ih* American Sugar Relining Company of
»v Jersey and a director, and John
ilayer. a director in the name company,
are directors of th* National company. It
1* understood that in all the inquiries made
by trr* United States Attorney the latter
company has been placed wnong the serai-
FubfJdiary companies. That would raise
th* percentage of business considerably
tbrve the figures given.
Get Evidence in West.
Th» American company about a year ago
mas -. r. to have relinquished many of its
beet I :£»•• holdings In the West. The In
dependent beet sugar companies are said to
be doing about 15 per cent of the business,
while the remaining C per cent, granting
that the American company controls 43 per
cent, wns raid to be the volume of trade
in the hands of the independents, if the
National company is counted among them.
Hi K:.arr went West with a record of
holdings of the so-called trust In his pos
**F»=!nn. He obtained valuable evidence

SUMMER GLOVES
White Silk. Plainly Stitched, Are
in Great Demand.
The provident woman has by this time
supplied herself with all the chief articles
of her summer wardrobe, and can give at
tention to other things which, though in
themselves insignificant, have UtSB the
power to make or mar a costume. Since
most of her gowns will, of course, have
short sleeves. It is obvious that 6he must
look carefully to her gloves, and the shops
are well supplied with the hand coverings
she will need for the warm month 6. One
of the specialty shops in the 34th street
shopping: district is making a feature of the
long silk gloves, which will be in great de

summer. T\"hile these gloves are shown In
several of the charming pale tints suitable
for the season of airy frivolity, it is the
white, with severely plain stitchings on the
backs, that will be most worn. In order to
have white silk gloves always Immaculate
many pairs are needed, and none but the
longest purse could stand the strain of
keeping up a supply of the costly em
broidered ones.
The woman who cares io and can afford
to Indulge In elaborate attire for her hands
will find gloves with vinellke designs
worked on the backs. These embroiderieß
are generally done In a matching tone,
though they do turn up occasionally in
colors approximately natural to the. flowers
and leaves they imitate, while a light gold
tint is frequently seen on white. Gloves
with ordinary Ftitching on the backs are
shown with embroidery on the upper parts
and white gloves in this style offn have
the decorations In black.
Besides silk gloves, the well dressed wom
an muKt have some of glace kid, an<i for
these the most modish colors are white, and
pale lemon or gold tints. A twelve-button
length in these gloves will do for day wear,
but silk gloves need to be as long as six
teen buttons, because they drop down
more than the kid.

Little Missionary Branch.
The annual report of Miss Sara Curry,
president of the branch at No. 83 St. Mark's
Place, Manhattan, excellent as It is, only
tells a part of the good cheer work done
In that part of the city. It leads as fol
lows:
The Little Missionary's Day Nursery in
lißl has endeavored in many ways to im-
prove and help the homes of the neighbor
hood. "We have taken care of about. 140
children dally. Of these, from 60 to 70 at
tend our kindergarten fly© days in the
■week.
Besides the regular work of the nursery
and kindergarten, we- liave four Hubs for
plrl.. Cnder rapable teachers, the girls
art taught many branches that enable
thorn to make their homes more pleasant
■•irni attractive. We have three cooking
classes for mothers, boys and girls, which
niret on Wednesday and Thursday even
ings. True economy In purchasing food and
wholesome cooking are certainly great fac
tors In a hapi>y home.
The mothers' meeting on Tuesday even-
Ing crowds our rooms to their utmost
capacity. Music; phort. helpful addresses
and social intercourse brighten and uplift
many a weary mother's 'i^art. Tho mothers
have organized a Helping Hand Society,
■with the object of helping each other In
times of sickness or flip train This Boclety
accomplishes a vast amount of good in a
quiet way, for we have learned by ex
perience that th« highest form of philan
tl.mpy is teaching people to help them
selves.
The men's meeting on Friday evening is
appreciated by the fathers. Many of them
testify to the help they get In their every
day struggle, from this weekly conference.
One said: "The saloons get less of my
money and my children have better food
and «-lothes now. That is what our Friday
evening meeting has done for me."
All through th*> week, at any hour of
day or night, neighbors drop In for a word
of counsel or advice. Only those who know
the need of a tru^ fri*»nd can appreciate
thp immense amount of good this branch
of our work accomplishes. Over 1.700 visits
were mode to the sick and destitute during
the year.
In addition to our work in the city, over
thr«'*> thousand mothers and children had
a pleasant rest at our summer home In
Netherwood, >>. J., last summer. Our
great need now Is a small hospital in con
nection with our work where pick mothers
and children can be better cared for than
In their homes In the crowded tenements.
Outing Gift.
The Young Ladles' Club, of Summit.
N. J., Is the first to contribute to the outing
fund for children. The sum of $15 has been
pent to the office to pay a week's board for
fifteen children at the summer camp at
Netherwood, N. J. When al! the friends
of the little children who live in the tene
ment districts realize that the small sum
of Jl will enable a boy or girl to have a
good time In the country for a week they
will Burely contribute to this fund. L*t tho
gifts be as generous as possible. Applica
tions have already reached the general of
flce. begging for the privilege of enjoying
this outing.
Other Money.
Burgeon Dudley N. Carpenter, U. fv N.,
at Annapolis, has sent his yearly contribu
tion of $5 for the T. 8. S. reet house; Kate
and Adelaide, $1, as their June contribu
tion for a crippled man; Mrs. J. 8. Cole, $1.
for badges; Emma Jackßon, $1, unappro
priated, which she earned by doing some
thing for a friend, and Miss D., 35 cents,
for postage.
Neighborhood Club.
The Neighborhood Sunshine Club, organ
ized at Clark's Falls. Conn., has been ex
tended into Rhode Island, and Mrs. John
8. i 'die, secretary. In her report, explains
the combination. She says: "As Clark's
Falls la only one mile from the Rhode
Island state line you will understand why
our club has been the means of consoli
dating the neighboring: territory of two
states for eight miles on each Bide of the
line In Sunshine work. Under the active
administration of Mrs. W. T. Collins, of

Questions of Good Form
Afternoor Gowns with Low Necks.
Are the afternoon gowns with extremely
low necks •which are shown in th« shops
ever worn bj well dressed people?— X. O. L.
The models with extremely low necks
that are 6h«wn in so many of the shops
muet not deude the woman who would bo
well dressed Into the belief that smartly
gowned wonten are wearing them, for they
are not, am. furthermore, consider them
In very bad taste. The Dutch neck, and
a rounded ieck. not showing more than
the Dutch ieck does, are as low as any
fashionable woman will have her after
noon gown «ut, and the mere fact that the
shops are pitting them forward settles the
question bo far as they are concerned, for
they prefer always to wear jtist the oppo
site of what may be bought ready made.
Evening Weddings.
Are evenlig weddings considered smart?
—Ella.
Efveningr veddings for many years have
not been considered smart, and. in fact,
are rarely heard of nowadays in the best
soolal circles. The usual hours set for
fashionable weddings are noon and 4
o'clock. The former hour Is chosrn gener
ally for country weddings and the latter
hour for town weddings.
The Chaperon Question.
Is the chaperon growing less necessary?
Is it always necessary for a party of young
people to hs,ve a chaperon? — Mother.
The good fellowship which prevails among
young men and young women at the pres
ent time has not lessened the importance
of the chaperon. At all times a chaperon
Is considered best form, and no matter how
well a party of young people may know

Special Gifts.
The Unity branch of Cuba. N. T.. haa
sent an express box of new garments to
be passed on to Miss Curry for her day
nursery children. This was a gift much
appreciated, as many of the babies taken
to the nursery are destitute of proper
clothing. Mrs. E. T. Galloway, president
of the Rutherford, N. J., branch, brought
to the office two Jackets, also a fine mili
tary game, to be passed on to some lame
boy. These articles and a pair of
crutches were the gifts of a boy who has
moved to California, and they found an Im
mediate place with the boy who had his
foot cut ,off recently by a railroad train.
Other Contributions.
A barrel of useful clothing has been re
ceived from a friend at Stamford, Conn.;
a box of clothing, slippers, etc., from >lan
hattan, without a name; infants' under
wear from Mrs. Gorton, of Yookers; slum
ber shoes, from K. 8., of The Bronx; cards
and booklets, from Miss H. : attractive
birthday gifts for invalids, from Mrs. H.
X. Rockwell, of Yonkers; a box of chil
dren's clothing, from E. P. Montgomery,
of Mount Kisco. x. V.; another fine contri
bution, from Bath Beach, I^ng Island.
A laundress says that water in which a
han<if!il or two of hay has been boiled is
the best for washing tan colored linen. The
water should be only warm— not hot— and
good white soap must be used.
one another the presence of a chaperon
gives dignity to whatever good time they
may have on hand, and also safety in case
of an unforeseen disaster, as an older wom
an presumably has her wits about her in
an emergency and can decide what Is best
to be done. Well bred girls and men would
not for an instant think of going oft on
any expedition unless a chaperon accom
panied them.
How May Sympathy Be Expressed?
It is easy to find In books of etiquette In
structions about the writing of letters of
condolence, but all these writers seem to
have in mind only relatives or Intimate
friends. What should be done when the be
reaved person is a mere acquaintance? Is
a note necessary— may cards be sent, or
may sympathy be expressed verbally? —
Puazled.
an intimate friend living at a dis
tance loses a member of his or her family
a telegram is sent, and this should be fol
lowed by a letter of sympathy. But when
a mere acquaintance meets with the same
loss a card is left at the house or is sent
by mail. A word or two of sympathy may
be written above the name on the card
sent, if the acquaintance is a particularly
congenial one and one desires to cement the
friendship. If the card is sent for mere
form's sake it is not necessary to write
anything upon it. In any instance, some
slight reference to the bereavement is made
on the occasion of the first meeting af
terward.

pose I accomplish?"

PASTOR RUSSELL
ON JERUSALEM.
"Comfort ye, comfort ye, my people, saith your God.
Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her
warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she
hath received of the Lord's hand DOUBLE for all her sins."
— Isaiah xl., 1, 2.
PASTOR RUSSELL.
Brooklyn Tabernacle.
Pastor Russell, of Brooklyn Taber
nacle, arrived home from his foreign
tour Friday, apparently in excellent
health. The Tabernacle auditorium
was deemed insufficient for the occa
sion and the Academy of Music was
provided. The expectations were fully
justified, for Brooklyn's largest audi
torium was crowded. Pastor Russell
had the closest attention while he
spoke from the above tenet. Hp said: —
"My friends will be glad to learn that
I had a most enjoyable experience
abroad. My objective point was the
Bible Students' Convention at Liondon.
but I Improved the opportunity for a
hasty visit to Palestine by way of
Effypt, incidentally meeting and ad
dressing: Bible students In various
cities of Great Britain and Germany,
as well as in Rome and Jerusalem.
The latter was one of the most enjoy
able experiences. There my congre
gation was composed of Jews. Moham
medans. Protestants and Catholics. My
heart went out in sympathy for all of
them, as I realized that the barriers of
the various faiths were chiefly of the
adversary and along- the lin«-s of mis
understanding the divine character and
plan, rather than of opposition to God.
GLAD TIDINGS.
To them all I gave the message
which God sent eighteen centuries ago
by the angels, saying: — "Behold, we
bring you good tidings of great joy
which shall be unto all people, because
unto you is born this day in the city of
David a savior (life-giver> which is
Christ the Lord." I pointed them to
the fact that they had all been looking
forward in anticipation to a better day
however they expected it to come.
When that day shall arrive, as God
through the prophets has foretold, it
will be "the desire of all nations" —
what all nations, peoples, kindreds and
tongues are desiring, hoping for. pray
ing for — a better day — the golden age.
Thus we found a common ground of
agreement.
Having in mind chiefly the Jews.
God's chosen people, I pointed out that
the glorious Kingdom of the Messiah.
for which they had so long waited and
prayed, is Burely near; even at th»»
door. T pointed out that the hopes of
Israel were built upon divine promises
and must surely be fulfilled: that God's
blessings would surely come to all na
tions through the se^d of Abraham,
and the privilege be granted to all na
tions of coming in under Israel's New
Covenant, of which the Messiah in
glory will be the great Mediator —
Prophet. Priest and King. I pointed to
the fact that they had not followed
fables but the sure promises of the
Bible, and that all of its g'«od prom
ises would have fulfilment. Then I
proceeded to point out to them, from
the Prophets the cause of the delay
of their hopes from the text which I
have taken for this occasion. "Com
fort ye. comfort ye. my people, saith
God. Speak ye comfortably to Jeru
salem and cry unto her that her war
fare is accomplished, that h^r iniquity
is pardoned, for she hath received at
the Lord's hand DOUBLE for all of her
sins."
ISRAEL'S- DOUBLE.
And I said to them, so now I say to
you. that the Bible distinctly informs
us that the people of Israel are God's
special heritage. He has not perma
nently cast away His people, whom He
foreknew: He has merely hidden His
favor from them for a season and for
a purpose. That season of disfavor is
distinctly declared by the prophets, as
we shall see.
Israel's history as a nation began at
the death of Jacob, and the entire pe
riod since down to the establishment
of the nation as God's earthly repre
sentative in power and great glory is
divided into two equal parts. During
the first of these divisions God showed
that nation special national privileges
and favors. During the second part
He has shown them no national favors.
These matters our Hebrew friends
freely acknowledge. Let us note this
"double" of Israel's experiences as
foretold by three of their most promi
nent prophets: —
(1) Through Jeremiah the Lord de
clared that because of Israel's unfaith
fulness he would ultimately cast them
off and scatter them amongst all na
tions, and after they had received a
time of disfavor equal to that of their
preceding favor he would bring them
back and fulfil to them all the gracious
promises made to the fathers. (Jere
miah xvi.. 13-IS.>
(2) Through the prophet Zarhariah
(ix., 9-12) the Lord announced the very
day which would mark the turning!
point of their "double." That day was
April, A. D. 32, when Jesus fulfilled that
prophecy riding upon an ass.
(3) In our text Isaiah, x! . 1-2) the
Lord marks the end of Israel's "double"
or secondary experience of disfavor.
These "doubles" refer evidently not to
a "double" severity or "double" of
what was justly due, but to a "double"
of time.
To our understanding of the Word
Israel's "double" of time was reached
in IS7S A. D., from which time thirty
fteven years of rising in favor will
bring them to the year 1915 A. D.. to
new covenant conditions promised them
through Jeremiah (xxxi.. 31). (Com
pare Romans, xl.. 25-32.)
PREACHES IX JERUSALEM.
On the occasion of our previous visit,
eighteen years ago. we sought opportu
nity to make known this message of
peace but found no ears to hear, but.
rather, a strong resentment. This
time we were requested to give a pub
lic discourse and ■ Hebrew put at our
disposal free of cost the best public
hall in Jerusalem. We had the closest
attention from Hebrews. Arabs and
Catholics and Protestants. Amongst
our auditors was Dr. Levy, the Treas- j
urer and General Business Manager off
the Zionists. He expressed himself
freely as deeply appreciating our mes
sage, and inquired. Why do not other
Christians give us a word of encour- ]
agement and recognition as a people of !
God? He and other Hebrews regretted
that our message was not heard by all
their co-religionists, as an encourage
ment and stimulus to faith. Learning
that we would deliver our present ad
dress. Dr. Levy volunteered to com
municate with prominent Hebrews of
this city urging them to be present.
The Zionist movement had not been
begun at the time of our previous
visit. Now Hebrews all the world over
are agog the fir* of patriotism begins
to burn. At the last meeting of th«
Zionists it was determined Is transfer
all the business of the Association to
Palestine as headquarters and that at
future conferences only the pure He
brew should be spoken by deltCBSM — ■

and particularly Jerusalem. 1« arising,
from the ashes of th«» drnd past. New
hope is coming into th** hearts of many
who had almost ceased to hope for the
consolation of Israel.
CROOKED STICK TO GANG
PLOUGH.
At on«» bound agriculture is passing
from the stage of ploughing with a
crooked stick drawn by an ox or cam*!,
and sometimes by donkeys, to the lat
est improvements in agriculture a
twelve-gang plough, drawn by a trac
tion engine. The Oriental Trading
Company, at Jaffa, have just imported
and set up this piece of machinery,
whose capacity is forty acres per «Jay
Of ploughing, harrow-ins; and seeding,
complete. Following comes the reaping
and threshing apparatus, operated by
the same engine. The Arabs are sell-
Ing their property and the Jews ar*
buying from them. A recently passed
law requires that tax»s hereafter shall
be paid in money and not Jr. a shar*
of the crop. This means that whoever
holds the title must cultivate the land,
and signifies in turn that th* wast*
places must be made productive and
that the non-progressive Arabs must
give place to the Jews who axe pur
chasing and improving.
Inside the city walls matters hay«»
made little improvement, but on th<»
outside much money has been spent,
and many fine buildings, public and
private, have been erected- The out
side is modern Jerusalem. The exten
sion is in the direction which ruins of
ancient walls indicate was once en
closed.
We should not be understood as rec
ommending that all Jews go to Pales
tine, nor as expecting that many of the
eight millions of that people will leav*
their homes of great comfort for th*
land of promise. Our understanding* of
the Scriptures is that the door to Pal
estine, which has now been opened to
the Jews, under the new Turkish gov
ernment, will bo entered by the moat
earnest and faithful of the Jews, and
that the persecutions* in Russia and
elsewhere will make the land of prom
ise attractive to them. A little later
some of the more wealthy Hebrews,
foreseeing troublous time elsewhere,
will go to Jerusalem as the City of
Peace. These are not our speculations,
but interpretations of Hebrew prophe
cies. During our tour the Russian
government ordered the departure- of
twenty thousand Hebrews from KiefT.
and others will doubtless be command
ed. Thus, the Lord opens the door, at
tracts the attention of His people and
then pushes them out of other lands
and makes them long for their father
land.
THE NEW JERUSALEM.
Pastor Russell reminded his audi
ence that Christians have a. deep in
terest in all these matters because th»
period of Jewish disfavor and rejection
had been the period of Christian favor.
While natural Israel had been outcast
the gathering of spiritual Israel has
been in progress, and the returning of
favor to Abraham's natural seed will
signify that the spiritual seed has all
been selected. This has a momentous
significance to us. and but a little time
remains in which to make our calling
and election sure as Abrahams spirit
ual seed. (Gal. ill., 29 ».
We are. interested in the earthly Jeru
salem and the prosperity about to com©
to it. when, under Messiah's Kingdom.
it shall become the capital of the world.
However, we have a deep interest la
the heavenly Jerusalem, symbolically
the glorified Church, the spiritual seed
of Abraham, Mount Zion. for "The law
shall go forth from Mount Zion. and
the word of the Lord from Jerusalem
None of the nations of Christendom
will constitute the New Jerusalem, nor
all or any of its sects. The Lord is
choosing a saintly little company cut
of all nations, peoples. kindreds and
tongues, sects and parties. To these
He says. "Fear not, little flock, for it is
your Father's good pleasure to give you
the Kingdom." As soon as this little
flock shall have been found, completed,
tested, glorified, the time will com* for
the establishment of Messiah's King
dom under the whole heavens. For a
thousand years it will rule the world
for the overthrow of sin and death,
and for the uplifting of humanity out
of degradation to full human perfec
tion into the image and likeness of God.
ANCIENT WORTHIES OP ISRAEL.
The channel through which this spir
itual and invisible kingdom will oper
ate amongst men will be the ancient
worthies of Israel. "Ye shall see Abra
ham and Isaac and Jacob and all th«
prophets in the kingdom." In close as
sociation with these first to be recog
nized will be the Jews, natural Israel.
God's favor to them will open the eyes
Of their understanding, and the ears of
their hearts, and they will receive th#
necessary instructions and the blessings
of restitution, which will begin with
them according to God's covenant with
them. All who would enjoy divine favor
and restitution blessings will gladly
gather to their standard and by cir
cumcision of heart and consecration of

lytes, children of Abraham. Ultimately
all who will not come into accord with
the divine arrangement then estab

kingdom of Messiah, will be blessed
as Abraham's seed and be lifted up,

foretold, will b*» as the stars of heaven.
Then God's will shall be done on earth
as it is bow done in heaven. Thence
forth "then shall be no mor*» death,
neither sorrow nor crying: neither shall
there be any more pain, for the former
things are passed away."' "And every

earth, and such as are in the sea. and
all that are in them I heard saying,
Meaning, and honor, and glory, and
