Fifty dealers And peddlers of Ice In
Omaha nearly nil of whom secure their
supplies from the Omaha Ice and Cold
Storage company or from the the
People's Ice company, upheld prices of M
cent per 100 pounds to residences And,
HSO per ton to butchers durlnir the sum
mer of lilt, according to testimony of
!U Margolin, plaintiff in a suit for dam
uses for breach of contract In Judge
Day's district court .
The bis companies charged Peddlers a
fixed price of Z per ton for artlflolal Ice
And JIM for natural Ice, the witness
testified. Ho Is jilleKlnir that because he
sold Ice for 10 cents per 1W pounds under
the fixed rate the Omaha Ice and Cold
Floras company conspired with Gunder
son Bros., who had agreed to sell him
1,700 pounds of Ice to break the contract
of purchase.
Ho testified that prices of Ice vrero the
Ps me over the entire city.
Margolin declared his experience hart
been that Ice in an Icehouso would,
shrink 10 per cent during the summer.
The defendants, however, were of the
opinion that 33V4 per cent was more nearly
the correct figure as to shrinkage.
Objections to questions designed to re
veal the cost of making artificial Ice, the
Average cost delivered to residences and
ths profits thus made were sustained by
the court, Margolin said ice packed in
Icehouses had cost him Mi and 00 cents
per ton.
