NEW YORK, May 20 In the first federal anti-trust proceedings brought Bnder the Sherman anti-trust law as Interpreted by the Standard Oil de cision, the depratment of justice filed 0iilt In the federal court here tcday gainst various constituent organiza tions of what is popularly known as jthe "lumber trust," alleging the ex istence of a widespread conspiracy "unreasonably" to restrain the lum ber trade in this country. It is said the suit may be the first pf a series planned by Attorney Gen eral Wickersham, looking to the breaking up the alleged agreements among the retailers of many of the Commodities of life to maintain high prices, to force all ultimate consum ers to buy from retailers and to black list wholesalers who sell to toners than members of the retail organiza tions in the various states and cit ies. Ten trade organization and more than 150 individuals are named as defendants in today's suit.

M consumers as "proper" and "Improp er" trade, extracts from reports threatening "short shrift" to dealers daring to violate the rules of the or ganizations and branding such of fenders as "poachers," scalpers," "mavericks" and "illegitimate" are fully set forth in the government's petition. It is alleged that not only have pri- ! vate consumers been blacklisted, but many of the great industrial concerns of the country have been put under i the ban by the lumber dealers. The government's bill, aggregating 20,000 words, is replete with sensational al legations and Interesting exhibits. The suit is directed specifically against retail organizations in the eastern states, but the trial unques tionably will embrace methods adopt ed by retailers and wholesalers throughout the United States. Although the lawyers in charge of the case believe the Standard Oil de cision involving " reasonable" and "unreasonable restrain" will not af fect the lumber case, as it is repre sented to be one of simple conspiracy, nevertheless the accusatory parts of the bill conform to that decision and charge "undue" and 'unreasonable" restraint of the trade of the consum er and manufacturer of lumber. Lesser stress is laid upon the alleg ed conspiracy between the defend-1 ants- themselves. In general the case is regarded as Attorney General Wlckersham's long-planned tost ft , to have the courts determine how far combinations of retailers iay go to prevent the ultimate consumer from dealing directly with the wholesaler or producer. The government takes the position that any agreements or acts which prevent the consumer from buying wehere he chooses, or to his best ad vantage, are in "unreasonable ' re straint of trade and violate the Sher man law. No attack on the middle man as such is intended, the depart ment of justice holding that thpre is legitimate business oportunity for him. Warning to r.avrad Men E. S.

Alfred Nicholson Dale died at the home of his sister, Mrs. H. P. Fig uers, Saturday, May 20. He was brought to Columbia on a special car from St. Louis last Thursday. It was hoped that a change would be benefi cial, but he did not rally at all after Els arrival. Mr. Dale was born and reared in Columbia, and was the youngest son of W. J. Dale, Sr., who died some years ago. He spent all of his boy hood and young manhood in Colum bia and at various times engaged in different business enterprises here. In December, 1892, he was married to Miss Annie Harrahan, the beauti ful, accomplished and lovely daughter of J. T. Harrahan.

For the past nine years he lived in' St Lpuls and was Interested In an ex- tensive coal mining company, which he managed with fine business ability. Mr. Dale was a man of fin ha.ln.. habits and clear Judgment But for his delicate health, which existed for several years he was a man capable of managing large affairs. i Personally Mr. Dale was a very lov able man. He was kind and affec tionate in his disposition, and. much loved by all his people. He was ex quisitely nice in his habits of dress and personal deportment. Never did a vulgar or unclean word pass his lips. He was chaste in thought and speech. He was a member of the Methodist church from his boyhood, and always kept up his membership wherever he went. When he knew that the end was near, he expressed a great desire to mm $ EWING come back to his old home that he might fall asleep under the old home roof, among those who loved him. He fell asleep as gently and sweetly as a child, at the end of a long summer day. Dr. Dinwiddle, that lovable old fa ther in Israel, conducted the funeral services in a touching and beautiful manner. The large Methodist church was filled with sorrowing friends, not withstanding the . inclement weather. He was buried by the side of his loved ones in Rose Hill.
