PRESIDENT OF CONCERN OPERATING UNCAS MILL Named as One of the Defendants in Indictment Drawn by Government, and Returned by Federal Jury. An indictment formulated under the criminal provision of the Sherman law drawn by United States District Attor- uey Henry A. Wise was returned Mon- day by the federal grand jury against the “Eastern Boxboard club,” alleged to be the successor of the dissolved “Fibre and Manila association.” In‘the indictment—the first of a new series of governmental trust prosecutions—the _presidents, officers and agents of paper board manufac- turing corporations and copartnerships included in the membership of the Eastern Boxboard club are charged with being a combination in restraint of trade, with limiting the output and the arbitrary fixing of prices. ‘The government considers that dras- tic action is necessary Lecause ‘many of the individual defendants named were, it is aileged, connected with the corporations composing the Fibre and Manila association, which, for opera- tions under the park “pooling plan, was in February, 1910, declared to be a monopcly and unlawful combination and ordercd dissolved by Judge Hough in_the United States circuit court. When pleas of guilty were enterad Dby the thirty-nine paper board cor- porations included in the membership of the Fibre and Manila corporation, and fines aggregating $88,000 were im- posed and paid, it was thought that the paper board trust had been put out of business for good. The government alleges, however, that certain paper board makers hav- ing made about $5,000,000 in the com- bination, subsequently formed the “Eastern Boxboard club,” District Attorney Wise immediately took actoin against the second combi- nation and an indictment was returned today. The federal prosecuior, it is learned, will, in the event of convictions, urge jall sentences as well as the imposi- tion of heavy fines. The defendants named in the indict- ments include Sidney Mitchell, presi- dent of the American Strawboard com- pany, operating the Uncas paper mill in this city and mills at Chestertown, Md., and at Winchester, Va.

COLCHESTER DOCTOR. ARRESTED Ante Bonoff Charged With Practicing Without a License. When Dr. Ante Bonoff was arrested near the Union station, Hartford, Sat- urday morning, says a’Colchester dis- patch, on the charge of practicing without a license in Colchester, he wag on his second attempt at flight from his numerous creditors in Col- chester. Dr. Bonoft came to Colches- ter about two months ago and opened an office. He speaks two or three lan- guages and has.traveled. About three weeks after opening his office he met a woman visiting here from New York and was married to her two weeks ago. The many bills which he con- tracted at the wedding festivities, in- cluding a sumptuous banquet, coupled with the purchase of an automobile, caused his creditors to become wary, On Thursday he left town suddenly, A cerditor followed and brought him back and forced him to deed over his auto. In an hour Dr. Bonoff had dis- appeared again. Meanwhile, it was learned that he had no licensé and the matter was put in the hands of the ) ) For their Atlantic City trip to the #rand lodge reunion during the week. oflfly“.ls ! eommitiee of Norwich lodge of Eiks, w’&n 430, iy a& increasing ini oni ana their friends as the (Ee ap- ¢ Tes- proaches with thal ervations for 50 made by lhe‘\flflrfi(ch Eiks will all be taken up and there may be a call for an extension of the accommodations they will be called upon to provide, The parade this year at the reunion is expected to be the greatest that the order has ever held, but there will be one feature missing which has held prominence In former years, No mas- cots will be allowed, An order to this effect, emanating. from Grand Exalted Ruler Herrmann has been promulgated by William .J. Storck, chief of staff to Grand Esquire James R. Nicholson of Boston, who will ‘be Ih command of the marching hosts of the antlered fraternity. The effect of this decree, of great interest to 300,000 Ilks throughout the country, will be to exclude from the spectacular procession on the fourth day of the twenty-fifth grand lodge reunfon in Atlantic City during the week of July 10, freaks of every description. Giants, dwarfs, Wiliiam goate, petted canines and mascots of any kind are to be relegated to the tall timbers. Grand Fxalted Ruler Herrmann has indicated the belief that the benevolent and protective or- der has reachel a stage where it is justified in_insisting that the annual parade of the order, always a spectac- ular demonstration, shal be_ exempt from sideshow specialties. Members may wear whatever unique garb they e fit and there will be no end of striking novelties, but the mascot will be a thing of the past. Atlantic City is preparing to enter- tain upwards of 100,000 of the Best People cn Earth, and the committee of arrangements has leased the steel peer for the entire week.

There will be sixty bands and it is estimated that the number of parad- ers will not fall short of 25000.

This is the candidate who is to have the suport of Norwich lodge, No. 430, against the fodr others who are in the field, Atlantic City is already beginning to don its habiliments of purple and to bedeck itself in miles upon miles of bunting and thousands of jags to af- ford a proper stage setting for the momentous occasion. By the time the vanguard arrives the always gay and attractive city will be as pretty as the proverbial picture. Grand Exalted Ruler Herrmann and the grand lodge officers will open their headquarters on July ' at the Hotel Strand, where 9 rooms have been rz- served for them and their families interest is attached to the Peculiar Atlantic City meeting because it was there in 1895 that the factional dif ferences that threatened the existence of the order were peacefully adjusted, the hatchet buried and the future of Elkdom assured.

It is believed by the committee that the interest manifested in the idea will bring out 2 large attendance.
