The long-expected decision of Judge Mor- ris of the common pleas court in the suit of the Arbuckle Brothers against the sugar trust was delivered at Toledo, Ohic, Mon- day morning, and it is in favor of the lat- ter. The suit was brought by Thom ETITION, J. Kuhn and the Arbuckles, owners of a minority of stock in the Woolson Spice Co. of this city, against the Woolson Spice Com- pany, and the leading stockholders in the American Sugar Refining Company, for the appointment of a receiver for the Woolson compzny, the majority of whose stock had been bought by the Havemey- ers of the sugar trust. The plaintiffs declared the sugar trast purchased this stock te injure Arbuckle Brothers and to keep them from guing into the sugar refining business; that the busi- ness is being run at a loss, and therefore the protection of the interests of the minor- ity stockholders requires that a perpetual injunctioa be made against the Woolson! selling coffee at a loss, and that a re- ceiver be appointed to conduct the bu ness. Judge Morris’ opinion is very voluminous, covering twenty-eight typewritten pages. He holds that the matter of the price at which the company may sell its coffee strictly pertains to the nter 1 manage- ment of the concern, and so long as they act in good faith the directors cannot be interfered with by the court, which can- not restrain a corporation from selling at a low price, even though the minority stockholders can show that sound business discretion would dictate a different pol The testimony, however, showed that the Woolsons were selling at a fair mar profit. ‘The application for a perpetual injunc- tion is therefore denied. . With regard to the other point, the court holds that the agreement of the majority stockholders to sell the product for a time at such a price as will drive a com- petitor out of business will not make the corporation an unlawful —_ conspiracy against such competitor, nor liable for his actual loss, ner entitle him to relief in the courts. A competitor for public favor must bow to that law of trade that allows every man to dispose of his own property, in the ordinary course of business, on such terms as he sees fit. The motion for the appointment of a re- cefver is therefore overruled. eS Rev. S. R. Murray's Reception. Rev. S. R. Murray, the newly appointed pastor of the Fifteenth Street M. E.

The trial of Policeman Archibald Mellen of the first precinct, charged with assault- ing Madge Fisher several weeks ago by fracturing her left arm, while in a house in the Division, will positively occur Tues- day next in the United States branch of the Police Court. Assistant District Attorney Mullowney today fixed the case for hearing on the day mentioned; and the principals and witnesses were so notified.

Miss Stacey §s the young woman, highly connected socially, who w some time ago for the attempted larceny of a valuable piece of jeweiry from the firm of Harris & Shafer.

A special dispatch from Havana, Cuba, to the New York Herald says: The insurgents have captured Holguin, in Santiago de Cuba. The town is a very important one, and the news of its loss has cast great gloom over official circles. It is reported that the victorious insurgent forces were those under the command cf Calixto Garcia, who has been operating with great vigor in eastern Cuba. Holguin, The foregoing dispatch to the Herald, re- porting the capture by the Cuban forces of Holguin, in Santiago de Cuba province, re- ceives confirmation from letrers written by Gen. Calixto Garcia, commander of the first and second army corps of the Cuban army, to his wife, who is a resident of this city. In a recent letter to Mrs. Garcia, the general hinted that it was his intention to move upon Holguin. And he added: Who knows, if once we menace the city, we may not go as far as to capture 1t? Another letter received last week from a colonel in Gen. Garcia’s staff, by Eduardo Yero, secretary of the Cuban delegate, T Estrada ma, brought the information that Gen. Calixto Garcia had ordered a roncentration, near Holguin, of ail thi Cuban forces in the eastern’ departmen The letter stated that Gen. Garcia woul be able to mass ten thousand men in the district. Holguin is one of the most impor cities in the province of Santiago ¢ It is an Interior town, distant twent miles from its port, Gibra, on the north with which it is connected by a rail- road of recent construction. The town was founded in 1751, and is lo- cated in a picturesque and fertile plain be tween the rivers Jigue and Maranon. Th climate In that section of Cuba is so tild and equable that the mortality rate. is lower than in any other place in the land. Holguin is about 110 miles to the north- west of the capital city of Santiago de Cuba. The city proper of Holguin, with its suburbs, has a population of about thirty thousand. It has a court house, a state prison, two churches of imposing azchi- tecture and several public and private schools. The city, from a commercial point of view. is regarded as very important. Holguin is the birthplace of Gen, Calixto Gare BOYCOTTING CE "AGO BEER. Action of the Federation of Labor in That City.

The sentiment of the labor men was for battle, er: Union S precip No. 1 ated the sos THE FORTIFYING BERMUDAS, Not Directed in Any Sense Against the United States, The British house of commons sat in committee several hours Monday on the military works bill. When the clause re- ferring to fortifications in the Bermudas was under consideration, John Dillon, lead- er of the Irish nationalists, said that in view of the fact that a treaty of peace and arbitration had virtually been con- cluded bewteen Great Britain and the United Stetes, he must protest against a proposal of large expenditure upon for- Ufications at the very doors of the United States. He would not say that they were to be erected with a hostile intention, but they were at any rate intended as defense: and he would advise the Untied States to watch very carefully the erection of fortifications in the Bermudas, under the circumstances. Sir Charles Dilke, member for the Forest of Dean, replied that fortified coaling sta- tions would be an absolute necessity to Great Britain on the American side of the Atlantic In the event of a great war. Most of England’s food supplies came from America. It was improbable that the United States would ever be opposed in war to England, and the use of the ber- mudas as a basis of British naval opera- Uons on the American side of the Atlantic was in no sense whatever directed against the United States. ‘The bill was finally reported to the house without amendment. +o.

Dr. Lyman Abbott of Brooklyn, N. “Y., will not be allowed to lecture in the Young Men's Christian Association Hall in Philadelphia because of his recent utter- ances regarding Jonah and the whale. The hall was engaged for Dr. Abbott before he delivered his recent sermons, but when he advanced his theories about Jonah the managers of the association took steps to keep him away from their building on the ground that his teachings were not alto- gether desirable for such a place. They made a proposition to the committee of Hicksite Friends who had Dr. Abbott in charge for his withdrawal, and the com- mittee consented to cancel the engagement of the hall. Dr. Abbott will lecture in Hor- ticultural Hall. BART. Mich. Postum Creek, Mich. Gents: Please send m of Postum by express, for same. My family all ke ft: no more coffee for us. Yours truly, J. A.
