WASHINGTON, Feb. . Th uprem
court of the United State today granted
a reuses t that It review th conviction
of official of th American Naval Stores
company, accused of having violated th
Sherman antl truat law.
Of th men concerned in th court' ac
tion, Bpencer P. Bhotter. chairman of th
board of director of the company, Is under
sentence to serve three month in Jail and
to pay a fine of $5,000, while J. F. Cooper
Myers, vie president of th company. Is
under sentence to serve th aama length
of time and to pay a fine of $2,500.
Edmund S. Nash, president, was fined
$3.D0; George Meade Boardman. treasurer.
$2,000, and Carl Moller. manager of th
Jacksonville, Fla., branch of tha company.
$5,000.
Th decision to review the conviction I
a step In one of the moat spectacular
prosecutions known under th Sherman
anti-trust law. For th first time men
have sought to have set aside sentences
of Imprisonment for alleged violations of
the anti-trust law.
History ( the Case.
Th American raval stores company,
whose officials were concerned In the ac
tion of tha court today has been referred
to as the "turpentine and rosin trust."
Aa a distributer and exporter of what Is
claimed to b more than 50 per cent of the
turpentine and rosin obtained from the long
leaf yellow pine of the Caroltnas, Georgia,
Florida. Alabama, Mississippi Ixulslana
and Texas, th company long ha been a
prominent flgur In th trade of the world.
It customer are scattered through th
United State.
Today' action wa the outcome of a
prosecution begun In lvttg In the United
States circuit court of Georgia against the
company. Its officiate and other for al
leged violation of th Sherman anti-trust
law.
It had been preceded by other prosecu
tions. In ore of the Bpencer P. Bhotter.
whose activities as chairman of the board
of directors had made him th most prom
inent flgur In th company, was found
guilty of violating tha Interstate commerce
law and fined. In another h wa found
guilty of violating th Bherman anti-trust
law and fined.
In the case before the court today he
had been sentenced to prison for alleged
violation of the anti-trust law, in addition
to payment of a fine.
Th government' claim of conspiracy
among tha defendant wa based partly on
the peculiar system of markets for tur
pentine and rosin. It was asserted by th
government that the only open or quotation
market In th United States for tha sale
of naval stores was at Savannah Ga. At ali
the other port or markets. It was claimed,
tha prices were based on th closing prices
at Savannah.
This being the cas the government
claims the defendants conspired to stay out
of th Savannah market in th early part
of 1908 In order .to depress that market and
during that time to make large purchase
at closed markets, where tb price would
be depressed because of th depression at
Savannah.

maintained by tha railroad and lu em
ploye. It was claimed that on of the regula
tions of th relief department wa that
employe must elect from accepting relief
from it and pressing a claim against tha
company. The company first contended
that tha recovery from the relief fund waa
a bar to th action In court a.id when that
wa decided agatnat, an attack waa mad

Tb supreme court of Iowa upheld th
constitutionality of th law. Th suprem

People Troop Na Match
for Cowboy Istsrtesu.
' PARIS. Feb., 30. In a review of the
crisis In Mexico made today for The As
soelated Pres.", Jose Yves I.lmaitour, minis
ter of finance lu the cabinet of President
Dias. declared that the only basis for peace
waa that the Insurgents lay down their
arms pending negotiation with the govern
ment Which on Its part should grant a
reform of tha evils that made the revolu
tion possible.
The only alternative that he foresaw was
th probability of a long wasting struggle,
for, said the minister, "the federal troops
ar no match for the cowboy Insurgents."
In the opinion of Senor Limantour the
feudal system In Mexico must go and the
great estates In the north which have been
passed from family to family should be
distributed among the people.
Refaaed ta t'oatesi with IMae.
For himself the minister said he had no
political ambitions, though ha had been
frequently urged ta contest tha presidency
with President Dlas. He expects to start
hoir within two weeks.
"I have no political aspirations," said
Senor Limantour In concluding the Inter
view. "I seek merely the uplifting of my
country. I have often been asked to run
for tha presidency, but have refused. I
expect to leave Parts In a fortnight for
New York and to proceed thence by
steamer to Yucatan fora private visit."
Three saaetiss Made.
The minister makes three suggestions:
First Th abuse contaminating local
administration as In cities and towns
which have the greatest grievences, should
be Immediately abolished.
Second Som means should be found to
allow the people to share mora extensively
In the holdings of lands.
. In' ths third place, there I opposition
to President Dlas on th ground that he
haa been too long In office and that new
blood la needed to direct the affair of
th republic, "but," added the minister.
"Dlas wa legally returned to the presi
dency by the people.
Called State Criticised.
"I dislike to touch on the delicate ques
tion of neutrality." continued tha Mexi
can, "but I am convinced the United
States' Interpretation is too restricted. Un
less it Is enlarged It wilt seriously Imperil
the government's chances of quelling the
revolution.
"Mexico prevents Guatamalean revolu
tionists from remaining near the frontier
Just aa France at the time of the Portu
guese revolution forced the Carllsta living
near the Spanish frontier to remove at
least 200 kilometres from the border on
the ground that their nearness consti
tuted a menace tc a friendly power.
"why cannot tn United State adopt
tha same attitude and not only arrest
armed revolutionists If found crossing Into
Mexico, but also prevent revolutionary
meetings ' and tha dispatch of arms and
hlp?"
Minister Limantour, who already has
placed In Europe $55,000,000 of bond In
conversion of th Mexican national debt
of $110,000,000 haa decided not to place tha
other half of the bond for the present.

bonds at THc, he considers a splendid trib
ute to Mexico's credit abroad, though th
revolution caused Mexican securities sren-
erally to fall froiril to $ points.

SCALES BROKE OUT
ALL OVER HER BODY
Scalp Affected, Hair Began to Fa!!.
Hands So Disfigured She Had to
Wear Gloves All the Time. Two
Hospitals Unable to Assure Cure.
First Application of Cuticura Soap
and Ointment Allayed Itching.
Psoriasis Has Disappeared.
"Allow me to say a few words In praise
f the Cuticura Remedies. About three years
ago, I wax affected by white scales on my
knees and elbows. I consulted a doctor
who treated me for ringworm. 1 saw no
change and consulted a specialist and he
claimed I had psoriasis. I continued treat
ments under him for about six months until
I saw scales breaking out all over my body
save my face. My scalp was affected, and
my hair began to fall. I then changed
doctors to no avail. I went to two hospi
tals and each wanted to make a study of
tha case and seemed unable to cure it or
assure me of a cure. 1 tried several pat
ent medicines and was finally advised by
a friend who has used Cuticura on her
children since their birth, to purchase
tha Cuticura Remedies. 1 purchased a cake
of Bos p. tb Ointment and the Resolvent.
After the first application, the killing
was allayed.
"I am still using the floap and Ointment
and now feel that none other Is good enough
for my skin. The psoriasis has disappeared
and 1 everywhere feel better. My hands
were so disfigured before using the Cuti
cura Remedies that 1 had to wear gloves
all the time. Now my body and hands are
looking line." (Signed) Miss Sara Burnett, 2133
