THE VEND CASE
CONTINUED IN SYDNEY.
COUNSEL'S ADDRESS
(Received Last Night, 9!20 o'clock.)
SYDNEY, July 12
Mr Knox, counsel for defendants, again monopolised the whole day in the Vend case. He quoted figures + o show that-the prices charged to consumers in Australia and other parts where they would be most affected by the Vend were approximately equal. Therefore it could not be called excessive. A rise of from 10s to lis per ton was not to the detriment of- the public. It was proved a fact .that the trade had increased in a greater proportion than before. No witness had stated that the trade was hampered by the prices charged.
