CHICAGO, May t-The Chicago Real
Estate Loan and Trust company today filed
a bill of complaint In the county court ask
ing for a decree requiring a reorganisation
of the Corn Products company undVr the
direction of the court and, that a receiver
be appointed for the plants of the company
In this state.
The court Is also asked to enjoin the Corn
Products company, the Corn Products Re
fining company and the Gluooae Sugar Re
fining company and the officers of those
companies from selling or converting- to
the Corn Products Refining company any
property now In the name of the Olucosa
Sugar Refining company. After reiterating
the history of the formation of the Corn
Products company. It Is set fortk In the
bill that 61 per cent of the stock of the
Com Products company Is held In the nsme
of E. T. Bedford and his associates whom
the bill declares are "commonly known aa
the Standard CHI people."
Prior to January 1, 1906, It Is averred In
the bill that C. II. Matthlsssen, Norman
D. Ream, William Wheaton, Joy Morton.
J. B. Groenhut, C. L. Glass. E. A. Mat
thleeaen, W. J. Calhoun, W.- T. Gorman. T.
B. Wagner, II. C. Herget, T. P. Klnpsford
and T. C. Sherwood, as officers and direc
tors of the Corn Products company, com
bined with the "Standard Oil people." who
were officers and directors of the New York
Glucose company, to defraud the complain
ing company of Its stock.
Conspiracy la Charred.
"The method of conspiracy." It Is said
In the bill, "included the formation of a
corporation known as the Corn Product
Refining company, owned by C. H. Mat
thlessen, Norman D. Ream and others,
whose names, with the exception of E. T.
Bedford, have not beon learned. As part
of the conspiracy C. H. Matthlessen and
his co-directors gave E. T. Bedford and
his associates control of 'the Corn Products
company, with all Its trade secrets and
factories."
It is asserted that the stockholders of
the Corn Products company were discour
aged as much as possible by such reports
as would lndtlce them to sell out or trans
fer their stock.
The bill further declares: "Prom the
beginning the company has been subjected
to attacks by the Standard Oil company.
One method was the construction, of a
factory for the New York Glucose com
pany by Bedford and his associates. This
method failed and It was then attempted
to buy the stock of the Corn Products
company by depreciating the stock value
by sales of large quantities of stock on
different exchanges In Immense amounts
and buying It In again at a lower figure.
The $60,000,000 of common stock was cut
down by false sales to one-tenth of Its
supposed value, while $30,000,000 of preffirred
stock was depreciated to one-quarter of Its
par value. Some days nearly the full
amount of the entire stock ixsue was sold,
although the sales were false and fraudu
lent." ,
Monopoly Alleged.
Other steps In the alleged conspiracy are
declared in the bill to have been the pur
chase of the Wagner factory In Lake
county, Illinois, and the St. Louis factory
at St. Louis. The bill then declares "the
conspirators are now planning to causa
all of the properties and business of the
Corn Products company to be transferred
to the Corn Products Refining company
and to permanently destroy the value of
stock held by the complainants. The mar
ket for glucose, starch and by-products has
been allowed to fall as far as possible Into
the hands of the factories owned by Mat
thlessen, Bedford and others and an abso
lute monopoly has been created. The new
company Is fixing prices to suit Itself and
the public must pay whatever Bedford and
his Standard OH friends demand."
It Is further declared that the payment
of quarterly dividends have ceased and
that the stock has been fraudulently taken
from all exchanges.
In conclusion the bill declares that the
Corn Products Refining company Is a truat,
operating In opposition to the laws of Illi
nois, and the court Is asked to take action
In the premises. The complaining company
Is engaged in the business of buying and
selling real estate and of advancing loans
to prospective builders. Its main offices are
In Monmouth, 111. George F. Harding, jr.,

tlers' association, but was lost for some
time, and Anally William E. Hill, who now
lives at Los Angeles, Oil., found It in his
possession and sent it to Mrs. Thomas

also served as the first jail.
SUTHERLAND The arrival of Klnkald
homesteaders In the territory embraced by
the act near here continues, and at present
numerous families are living In tents near
the head of Squaw creek. Much building
is being done and as this is about the mont
accessible town, lumber ! hauled from here
in most cases. As a rule the homesteaders
are people who have wrestled with the
pioneer proposition before and come pre
pared to stay. The older Klnkalders, other
wise those who have b"en here for some
time, are giving much attention to dairy
ing and with their small herds of cows get
good returns. One family of Klnkalders,
to the north of here, contemplates planting
400 acres of sod corn this season.
fil'THBRIAND From an authoritative
source it is learned that the O'Fallon and
Northport extension of the Union Pacific
will again be the acene of active railroad
building within the next few weeks. It Is
said orders have gone forth to the effect
that material and laborers for the com
pletion of the road from the present termi
nus near Lewellen on through to Northport
should be on hand In a very short time.
Nearly half the distance from O'Fallon,
where the branch leaves the Overlnnd, to
Northport has been traversed by the new
track, but about three months ago work
was suspended for some reason. With re
sumption of work It Is likely that regular
train service will be Installed for a consid
erable distance northwest.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, May 4. (Special.) Not
withstanding the succession of freezes
since the fruit has been In blossom. Wen
ley Greene, secretary of the State Horti
cultural society, believes that there is a
'little frlut left. This is based on the-fact
that similar freezes in 1803 failed to kill
all the fruit. Secretary Greene said today
that all the freezes and snows of April did
less damage than the cold weather cf this
morning. It was 26 degrees above at Des
Moines, 21 at Albta, 18 at Carroll, 21 at
Boone, 18 at Iowa Falls and 20 at Aiar
shalltown. He believes that there will not
be more than enough cherries for the
birds, but there will be a little more ap
ples and other frlut. After all the cold
weather Mr. Greene was able this morning
to find a few blossoms that wre still
alive. In M0J, when the conditions were
almost exactly like those of this year In
Iowa, and apples made 42 per cent of a
crop, the pears 8 per cent, plums 10 to 14,
peaches 20, cherries 28, grapes G8, red
raspberries 81, black raspberries 76 and
strawberries 92. Mr. Greene today Issued
a statement giving the condition of frlut
on May 1, this year, aa follows: Apples
65, pears 45, American plums Japan
ese plums 1; lunestlc plums 15, cherries
25, peaches . grapes 84, red raspberries
60, black raspberries 63,, blackberries 72,
currants 73, gooseberries 68, strawberries
71. Since then further cold weather, such
aa this morning, has changed the condi
tion of the fruit for the worse. Mr. Greene
will Issue a new statement based on re
ports from over the state as soon aa the
weather Is settled for good.

Prosperity in Holt Thnt Holt county has
been and la tha place for a poor man to
get a start in life is exemplified In the case
of Fred Martens of Atkinson, who was an
O'Neill visitor last Monday. Mr. Marten
came to Holt county twenty-ont years ago
with Just enough money to pay the home
land on Holt creak, about twelve miles
south of Atkinson, where he still resides.
He now owns, clear of aU incumbrances,
2,400 acres of land, ha X head of cattle
and twenty head of horses-property that
is easily worth 850,000, and made In Holt
county in twenty-one years. This Is a
little over 82,300 for each year. Where can
you make money any faster than that 7
