Revelations Regarding the
Standard Trust.

StuuOATU 1EuSts
New York, February 27.-F. d.
Rockefeller, of the Standard Oil Com
pany, was examined this morning by
the Senate Trust Investigating Com
mittee. He sal that the company of
which he was President has a capital
Of So, 100000 He produced a copy of
a awritten agreement of the trust, which
he asked tc be kept from the press, as
it contained private matter. The trust
contained over five companies;
would not say definitely how
many. The capital is 500, O,OO0, 900.
The oil product of the company is
about 27 900, 900 barrels yearly, and
three-fourths of this is controlled by
the trust. The certificates are worth
$l65, the par value being 800. Divi-
dends have been drawn every three
months, the average being 81 per
cent. annually. Twenty million dol
lars has been added to the $40, ,000, 900
with which the trust started.
This has been given as stock dividends
in addition to the regular dividends.
The number of refineries is constantly
increasing. The Trust is doing moth
ing to prevent production. About
$50 ,000, 900 of the Trusts capital rep
resents plant of pipe lines. The
majority of the stock is held by
the present trustees. A synopsis
of the Trust agreement which was
executed on January 20, 1882, shows
the division Of those entering into
the agreement into three classes and
the names of each class is given. The
parties agree to conformation
under the laws of Ohio, New
York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
The corporation is to be known as the
STANDARD Oil Co.," Of each State.
The trust has little to do with pro-
ducing oil, its business being refining
and transportation. Its employees
number 10000 men.

IN HoT PURSUIT..
Indians Trailing the Arizona
Train Robbers.

Tucson, At, February 27.-W. G.
Wharf returned this morning from
the posse pursuing the train robbers.
He had trailed them to Hearst's
ranch, in Animas Valley. New Mex
leo, over hundred miles from the
scene of the robbery. The trail led
over mountains, through cafions and
rocky ravines. The Papago Indian
trailers never lost the trail. At many
intervals letters and other evidences
Of the robbery had been dropped.
When the posse reached Hearst's
ranch it had been without
food for twenty-six hours. No
one was at the ranch. They found
beans, rice and -four, helped
themselves, and after a short rest.
pushed on. The Indians reported that
trail, less than eight hours old, led
from Hearst's across the valley into
Sonora. Two robbers had mounted
horses two miles from the scene Of
the robbery and had ridden most Of
the way. Crossing the valley, the
robbers were on foot, leading their
horses. There is strong evidence
that from $4,000 to $15, 900 in gold
coin was taken by the robbers.

John Brandon, laborer, 80 years

Timothy Gain, forty years old, en-
gagged as a mill hand at the Starr
mills, leaves wife and two children.
At five O'Clock, when the work of
the jury was suspended, there still
remained one unidentified body and
the searchers are still at work on the
wreck trying to find more of the miss
ing men. A list of the wounded is
difficult to give, because they were all
taken to their own homes.
A WOMAN INJURED.
Mrs. Ferrier, the wife of gunner
at Mare Island, seems to have been
the only lady on board. She was
badly scalded about the face and
arms. Captain Gedge had an almost
miraculous escape, in no slight meas
ure due to his presence Of mind,
for as soon as the explosion
occurred he wrapped his head
in his coat, and though thrown from
his feet he was only bruised. The
crew of the Julia consisted of eleven
hands: Geo. Gedge, Captain; Chas.
Heath, pilot; Joe Watts, Manuel
Frietas, Frank Williams, Gus Ander-
son; engineers; John Long, Geo Wal
lace. firemen; M Degner. 1t is be-
lieved that the last named was not on
duty this morning, but his place was
filed by Henry Peterson.
The vessel was a very old one,
having been in use for nearly 80
years and was at one time a regular
passenger boat between San Francisco
and Sacramento. 1t is supposed that
exclusive of the crew, there were
some 81 passengers on board, making
total OF 63 hands all told and not a
single one escaped without injuries
more or less serious.
THE NUMBER ON BOARD
The Julia, Capt. Gedge gives as fol-
lows: Three through passengers for
San Francisco, 35 for Vallejo, and IL
officers and crew, making in all 45,
instead of 73, as was supposed. One
body, that Of Timothy Kane, was
recognized by porous plaster on his
side, his poor wife having put it
on the night before for him.
His remains were simply a mass of
charred matter. The wharf, sheds,
telegraph station and ticket office
were destroyed, as well as four pas
senger and freight cars. The loss on
these amounts to about $3.50, 900. AS
night closed in the search for the bodies
had to be given up. 1t is thought
that some will never be recovered,
through being carried out to sea. The
inquest will be commenced at ten
o'clock tomorrow morning.
CAUSE OF THE CALAMITY.
The doubt as TO whether it was
the petroleum in the boilers which
burst has been removed. A driver
from San Francisco at work for three
hours on the wreck declares positively
that the two petroleum tanks are in
tact, and the end of one boiler blown
entirely out, one end being in one
end Of the ship and the other in
another. This would seem to
strengthen the theory that the boilers
were in an unsafe condition.

TOMBSTONE, A. T., February 27.-
About a week ago Chas. Williams
eloped from Nacosaro, Sonora, with
the wife Of Jack Martin, cattleman.
The woman appropriated $4,000,
and a gold watch and chain, be-
longing to Martin, while Williams
scattered the horses belonging to Mar
tin and the neighbors to prevent pur-
suit. The day following, Martin pro-
cured horses and posse and started
in pursuit. This afternoon he over
took the party y in a caffon
near the Hills ra1rsh, on the San

saw Martin he opened fire
on him, the shot passingsthrough his
body and causing instant death. The

Inducements, securing which they
