After a two weeks’ Inquiry by the thet a trust had been formed to handle antt- toxin, Health Commissioner Darlington declares that there {s such a ¢ombina- tion, and to-day gave out a statement it which he offers to sell such surplus as the Department. of Health of this city may haye on hand to the Chicago Department of Health, and such other departments in yarious citles as may néod assistance of New York.

These let- ters bear the date of Jan, 13, 15 and 16 and are in many ways {dentical, whicli show that the three manufacturers all hold exactly the same attitude toward the public." After Mr. Schnell had told Dr. Dar- lington that all three of these firms hat assured him that there was no combin- ation, but when pressed to do so he seemed unable to state definitely pon what he based his belief other than the statements of the manufacturers, “Even supposing that there was a combination.” rejoined Mr. © Schnell; “what would you do?" Dr. Darlington says Mr. Schnell asked him, “T replied,” said Dr, Darlington, “that I would double, trebfe or quadruple our output. I would sell {t from here to San Francisco. Mr. Sefinell told me that it would be against the law, “*You may be right,’ said I, ‘but I tell you that there is a higher law, which 1s above any one in the statute books, and that is the necessities of the poor, The Mfe of one clilld is worth more than all the profits of your manufacturers.’ "' Dr. Darlington further says that in his view a combination of antitoxin manufacturers isa direct menace to the well-being of the public. He be- Neves it to be the duty of public medi- cal officers to use every;means in their power to. protéct the poor and those who are ignorant of the curative pro- perties of antitoxin; and see that they obtain its benefits at a moderate price.

It 1s sald that the principal witness against Fragner {4 his bride of a few days and that the accusation against him is that he gave tne heirs a bogus mortgage for $5,000, Before marrying Miss Dorothy Kainer Fragner made full restitution for the $20,000, and it wns understood that Hugo Wantzallus, the girls uncle, who came from Germany to look, after the estate was to drop the case with the consent of Assistant District-Attorney Robert.
