RAISE OF 6 CENTS A POUND Every Inorease of a Tenth of a Cent Takes Five Million Dollars from the Consumers-Fabulous Profits of the Trust New York, July 11.—The Sugar Trust has made another dip into the pocket of the American householder and raised the price of sugar to 6 cents a pound wholesale. This is the eighth raise the trust has instituted since it obtained absolute con trol of the market, two months ago. It then beat the Arbuckles and other competitors into a state of subjection. It did not allow them to rise from heir knees until they signed an Ironclad agreement permitting it (.the trust) to fix the selling price. At that time the price was $5.20 a hun dred pounds. Raises have been made at intervals since May 23, each being at the rate of one-tenth of a cent a pound. lax of 4(5,000,000 Each raise of one-tenth of a cent im posed a gross tax of $5,000,000 upon the sugar users of this country, who consume 6,000,000,000,000 pounds a year. The increase from $5.20 to $6 a hundred pounds is equiva lent to an arbitrary tax upon the trust-rid den people of this country of $40,000,000. Every penny of this goes into the pockets of the trust. Already the sugar barons, through their monopoly, draw more than $200,000,000 a year from the American people over and above legitimate profits. Part of this wealth is represented by steam yachts, big diamonds and palaces. Tht so-called independent refineries, the National, the Arbuckles’ and the McCa han's, all raised the price of sugar Tues day ,in accordance with the trust's order, the .i. ctahan'8 Stuck The McCahan Sugar Refining Company of Philadelphia, which, during the fight of the Havemeyers .issued treasury stock to obtain funds with which to do battle .re cently announced a dividend of 50 per cent, paid with money obtained by the sale of that stock. In other words, it gave back to its stock holders half the cash they subscribed—that is, assuming that the price was at par. The company also pays dividends of 12 per cent. The market price of sugar in Eu rope is so low that it might be imported here and sold at a profit w'ere it not for the methods of the trust. | _HEAL ESi AIK ^rLn_rwi_rw . FOR RENT.

SIDNEY LUCAS HAS MET HIS WATERLOO — Badly Beaten by Milwaukee at Washington Park Yesterday STAKE WAS WORTH $1,000 The Winner Was in Receipt of Many Pounds from the Derby Winner Lucas Made Good Run, However Chicago, July 11.—Milwaukee celebrated his first ‘start at Washington Park today by beating Sidney Lucas in the $1,000 han dicap, but the winner was in receipt of many pounds from the Derby winner. How ever, had Lucas not been crowded wide at the stretch turn by Florizar the finish might have been different, as Lucas was a neck to the good and coming fast. As the race was run, Sidney Lucas was much the best and easily defeated Florizar by two lengths and was three lengths in front of Advance Guard, who was also cut off by Hoff at the last turn and lost considerable ground. In the first race of the day, a 2-year-old event, Golden Age was made favorite in the open betting, but the heavy play on Harry Hern den caused his price to drop from 3 to 1 to 2 to 1. Golden age, however, proved much the best of the field and won easily, while Handy Man beat Herndon a nose for the place in a hard drive all through the stretch, only getting up in the last stride. The second race proved easy for Tappan, who was always a hot favorite. Summary: First Race—Five and a half furlongs: Golden Age, 123 (Bullman), 11 to 5, won; Handy Man, 108 (Matthews), 20 to 1, second; Harry Herndon, 115 (Caywood), 2 to 1, third. Time, 1:08^4.

Brighton Beach Entries New York, July 11.—Scratches almost ruined the programme at Brighton Beach today. Five of the eight in the fourth race and nine of the fifteen in the fifth race were scratched. The fourth promised to be the best of the day, but with Herbert, Raf fiiello, Maximo Gomez and others out it "looked like a walk over for the Brigadier. The other two were 15 to 1. Brigadier won but not like a 1 to 10 shot, as he was. It was by the narrow margin of a head. Sum mary: First Race—Six furlongs: Heliobas, lio (O'Connor), 9 to 5, won; Vesuvius, 112 (Spencer), 6 to 1 and 2 to 1, second: Mee hanus, 123 (Maher), 6 to 1, third. Time, 1:14 1-5.
