Samuel Markewieh, acting for Dis- trict Attorney Swann, to-day sent to peciomwiaa matey Special United States Prosecutor Frank M,. Swacker testimony as to [[s[olsis[s[eTeTnistera] transactiona that happened when tho | Poster-Scott Ice Company tried to se}] coal a year ago; how the com- pany was punished by being drivon out of the ico business, and how at last It became incorporated with the powerful concern whose resentment | it had aroused. \ On page 373 of the Copartnership and Corporation Directory for this year is this entry: “Foster-Bcott Ice Co, (N. Y.) consolidated with Burns Bréthera | Ice Corporation.” | Testimony gathered by Mr. Marke- wich ts to tho effect that the Foster- Scott people a little more than a year ago undertook to add to thelr businens by selling coal. They soon found Burns Brothers were selling ice at 50 cents a ton less than the Foster-Scott Company could afford to sell it. They were soon forced to drop out of the ice business. ‘They found their newly acquired eal business unprofitable, | too; and they were glad to sell it out and join forces with Burns Brothers, While James W. Scott is President of the new feo corporation, Sol M. Schaczkin, old time partner of Mich- | act F. Burns and Vice-President of his coal company, is the Vice-Presi- dent, and Michael F, Burns himself {s Chairman of the Board of Directofs and Is master of the whole business. The capital of the Burns Brothers Ice Corporation {s $6,000,000. When District Attorney Swann asked Burns recently if he were not interested in the ice business the latter replied: “Yes, we havo a slight interest in fee, It doesn’t amount to much.” Mr. Markewich has also found evi- dence that the men in charge of the retail coal business in New York have made efforts to gather in the little retailers and cellar coal peddlers un- der their control, putting some of them out of business. Two of the peddlers thus forced out called on the District Attorney and told their stories. “District Attorney Swann," sald Mr. |Markewich to-day, “is going ahead |with the prosecution of all these cases that violate the law of this State.” ample Featraint of trade oinong th —__ portation companies have nh prefe wnces to favored dealers, prices do most of the talking. itable as Christ- 10 Shopping Days Before Christmas Open Evenings Beginning Next Saturday, Dec. 16 , Final Opportunity to take advantage of our [st o Q fy o | Fifth Avenue at 43rd Street REMOVAL SALE Pee Ste snes “DD to *125 Afternoon Dresser *45 to °95 Suits aay ars werrs OD tO *95 5 5 At Blgominyitates” Playthings Galore at Toylan Santa Claus Is Here.
