A Trust in Court.
Cincinnati, April 8. Attorney
General Griggs, through U. S.
District Attorney Bundy, filed an
anti-coal trust bill today against
the Chesapeake and Ohio Fuel
Company and seventeen others.
The governmont ' asks for an in
junction against the fUelcompany
from carrying out its agreement
with the other firms, alleging that
a trust has been formed. The
fight against the so-called trust
was begun some time ago before
the Inter-State Commerce Com
mission, which, found the charge
practically sustained on one of the
complaints, viz: "That the Chesa
pease ana umo ttaiiroaa naa a
contract to carry coal."
Then the matter on which the
suit was filed was brought before
the grand jury by Bundy, and in
dictment followed. It came before
