Cleveland, Ohio, May 19.—(Special to Daily Democrat)—The Bell Telephone company, called by its opponents the telephone trust, has won an Important preliminary victory in its fight with the Independents now be- ♦ Ing waged in many parts of the country, but particularly in Ohio. Judge Taylor of the federal court today dissolved a temporary restraining order upon a petition filed last night by the United States Telephone Co. against the Central Union company and the American Telephone and Telegraph company to restrain the defendants from alleged action in inducing independent companies to violate their ninety-nine year contracts with the: United States company tor long distance service. The petition is based on the charge that the Bell company is operating a trust in'restraint of trade. The belief is' now that the numerous independents will flock to the Bell company, in fact this action was forecasted in the complaint filed be-, fore Judge Taylor and the Independenst sought to prevent this. — o New York, May 19.—(Special to the Daily Democrat)—The financial and business world here and the country over was shocked this morning when it was announced thgt Henry H. Rogers, the Standard Oil magnate and millionaire, had died very suddenly at his home in this city. The death was a distinct blow here for it was not known that he was ill. 'He was at his office yesterday and tfie news of his death could scarcely be believed by his associates, all of whom were completely overcome by the announcement. He had been in poor health for several years, but had completely recovered and a short time ago when he opened his new Virginia railway, it was stated that he was so much improved that he had been able to dispense with constant medical attention, which he had for the several yeaps previous. Each year recently he has withdrawn more and, more from connection with the Standard Oil company and devoted almost his eqfire attention to the Virginia railroad, which brought the great coal fields of the old dominion to tide water. The stock market opened weak here this morning owing to the announcement of his -death, most of the leading stocks being off at least a point, though Standard Oil remained unchanged. „— o , PETROSINO’S FRIEND KILLED “Black Hand?
