Ice Trust Alleged in Seattle City Ice Trade Turmoil
The Star reports that Seattle ice firms may form a trust with N M Latimer of Diamond Ice and Cold Storage denying a combine. Andrew Henderson, once a driver and ice dealer, claims pressure and price cuts forced his exit, leaving him to sell a wagon business and struggle for ice. Witnesses say no trust exists while prices climb and a tariff system tightens access.
