John Dymond, a cane planter of New Orleans, zold the house susar investigating: com mittee today that the cane growers ot Louisiana were absolutely at the mercy of the American Sugar Refining com pany, which bought raw sugar arbi trarily and paid its own price. Mr. Dymond Rsaid there was now no competitive buying in New Orleans. Practically all of the buyers who had not been brought into the combination by the "trust," he said, maintained an "armed truce." Mr. Dymond denied that the Louisi ana Cane Growers' association was closely associated with . the American Sugar Refining company, that the growers could not afford to antagonize the "trust." ""Why?" asked representative Jaco way. "Tou have heard of the Bucks stove case?" "Yes." "Then, we are afraid we might be boycotted." Mr. Dymond recited one case in which he said the "trust" had disci plined a larger grower by refusing to buy his product. ilr, Dymond said that elimination of protection would bring Louisiana su gar men in competition with the cheap est peasant labor of Europe. The wit ness said most of the laborers ho em ployed were negroes, whom he paid a dollar a day, and "who would not work half the time at that." J JVo Pension Legislation.

New Tork, K. Y., July 15. After a le gal battle extending1 over a period of 10 years, Mrs. lida Ni-colls Fitzgerald, sprightly and fascinating divorcee, has brought to terms her noble ex-husband. Gen. Gerald Purcelfitzgerald, owner of the Isle of "Waterford, Ireland. The supreme court of the state of Pennsylvania has rendered a decision granting to Mrs. Fitzgerald a lien on valuable coal property at Uniontown, Pa., which Gen. 'Fitzgerald owns, so that she can compel payment to her of $35,000 a year. Of this amount $20,000 is to g-o to Mrs. Fitzgerald as an annuity and $15,000 is to be put aside for the accu mulation of a trust und for the ben efit of Mrs. Fitzgerald and her three children. The case was bitterly fought by Fitzgerald, who has since remar ried. Mrs. Fitzgerald, who is a nieqe of J. V. Thompson, unulti-millionaire banker and coal mine owner of Uniontown, Pa., was Mies Lida Nloolls, an eccen tric heiress. She became acquainted with Gen, Fitzgerald IX years ago, and they were married at Los Angeles soon afterward. In a short time Mrs. Fitzgerald be gan the series of legal actions that ter minated In the Pennsylvania supreme court. Mrs. Fitzgerald first brought suit for divorce in England, where the eouplo had taken up their residence. The case was dismissed on the ground of lack of jurisdiction. Parliament Grants Divorce, In no wise daunted, the wife went to Ireland and brought suit in the high court of justice. Mrs. Fitzgerald .se cured only a separation. In 1906, how ever, she obtained a divorce by special act of parliament. After tho separation was Issued In Ireland and before the special act of parliament. Gen. and. Mrs. Fitzgerald entered into an agreement which pro vided for the accumulation of a trust fund of $300,000 and an annuity of $20,000. Under the agreement certain coke mines in Pennsylvania were dedi cated to the performance of this con tract. The Question which has for so long awaited a definite answer related to the validity of the agreement made after the separation and In contem plation of the divorce. Coart Sustains AjpreeiaeHt "The agreement is illegal because it tends yto stimulate divorces," claimed the defendant's counsel. The legal Is sue was also presented whether the an swer of the defendant, which set up collision In securing the Irish decree, wasv responsive to the bill or particu lars. The Pennsylvania court sustained the validity of the agreement and de cided that the allegations of the an swer are not responsive to the bill. Mrs. Fitzgerald, who has lived for several years in New Tork and on the continent, is one of the most beautiful of the small coterie of American wo men who have attained prominence in European society.
