path for the Standard OH trust. AS
soon 90 RcthsChild has gained the de-
sired upper hand in the Russian Byndi-
cate, the iron ring will be welded, and
the squeezing OF the consumer can begin,
in order 10 pay the war expenses Of the
competition fight.
To day the consumer looks quietly on
while the great robbers make all these
preparations in order to drop the con-
sumss'S trap when the time has arrived,
for tho tempting bait is the incredibly
low petroleum prices. By the bourgeois
press, that only expresses the fear Of
death OF the large capitalists, vain efforts
are made to rouse the public out Of it's
quiet and hopeful confidence, that the
present low petroleum prices will be
maintained, but it ia loves labor lost,
and the hope that eventually the petro.
leum wells Of GaliciB and RoumRnia will
be opened, the giant power Of capital
will soon crush, and he (the bourgeois
Citizen) who has preferred the Estate
and society" sustaining power of capital
ism against the destructive attacks Of
socialism, will have TO pay the penalty
for his blind short -sightedness But we,
we shall be content.
What the more intelligent among the
capitalists dimly begin to suspect-thst
the rapid Capitalization Of wealth only
turthers the work Of socialism--they
could have read in the communistic
manifestO. The squeezing out process
against the small and middle capitalists;
the pSuperigation (prolsterisiruDg) of
everyone who dsres to maintain his
independence RS q penalty for his in
suboFdinBtion; the destruction Of the
livelihood OF numerous persons through
monopollzed capital, ss even the blind
est can see in the case OF the petroleum
monopoly-Rll this leads with giant
steps our present society nearer to
socialism. So it is capital itself that
undsrmines the ground il stands on, and
foolishly digs the mine that is to explode

The Standard Oil Trust MOuOpOlizeS the OIL
Trade of the World.

Rockefeller knows neither pity nor con
siderstion. He only knows (ackncwl
slgas) one prinCiple-tO be mGstOr-GnC
with one move let millions disAp
near in his pocket. It is through his un
gcrupulousness, his refined, sharper
tricks that the Standard has gained Id
superiority. In 1892 the Standard Oh
trust was obliged to dissolve, only to 70
appear in such q form, that it is put be-
yond ell legislative action, even IL in
America. Though WHOLLY against the
custom Of the country, they should try
to hang the big thieves instead Of the
small ones. Through the tariff on pc
troleum against the Russians the Ger
man government aided the Standard Oil
company and the Standard Oil trust
caused fall of prices from Is. 2 msrka
in 1884 to g. 5 marks in 1893, by flooding
the German market with its petroleum,
and boycotting all importers that would
not bend to its will, driving q number Of
firms to q consolidation with the Ger
man American Petroleum company,
Countless people were ruined, but the
German ally Of the oil trust in 1891 made
q clear profit Of 81 per cent. In the
most cruel way the Standard fights the
remaining importers, especially Phillip
Potb, and there is no trick, no baseness,
that the trust is not ready to use against
its inconvsnient opponent. Il iS fight
to the knife and there is no doubt that
In their desperate battle the independ
ents will be conquered.
AS long as Russian petroleum still
goes to the German market, the Stan
dRrd Oil trust will not endeSvor to raise
It's low prices in order to press the con.
sumer, and 30 reach the aim Of all trusts
80 it is necessary to get the Russian
competition out Of the way. AS thl
Russians have cheaper labor, and there
are NO labor laws in Russia to prevent
th0m from taking advantage Of the Ia
borer, the German Russian commercial
treaty on account of a special tariff ma.
nipulation, gives special advantages tC
the Russian petroleum, and the freight
on Russian railroads has been reduced
from Is kopeken per pud to O. There
win be no other way Of pushing aslds
the Russian competitor than by com
bining with him.
With the help Of the Russian Minister
Witte, since 1893, Russian syndicate
was established, among which 85 per
cent. Of the Russian product is divided.
Foremost in the Russian syndicate is the
Nobel company, which holds 8, $40 shares
out of about $4,000, and there are sew.
eral other firms, that decidedly object TO
the fusion with the Americans, espeC-
tally the firm Of Schibsjsw & Company,
with 1906 shares. But R1thschild also

Onc of the Most Pathetic Tragedies OF ths
Atlantic Coast.

Onc of the Most Pathetic Tragedies OF the
...... Atlantic Coast.
One of the most terrible tragedies
of the Atlantic coast was the loss OF
the steamship Evening Star with 26o
of her passengers and crew $40 miles
northeast Of the Matanila reef, on
Oct. 3. 1866. The Evening Star was
on her way from New York to New
Orleans and was rolled about for
long time in a constantly increasing
storm. At o'clock on the morning
of Oct. 3 a vast mountain Of water
fell on the deck and stove in the
starboarl forward gangway. A bulk
head was hurriedly erected to keep
the water out, but it was swept
away. Four times the crew rebuilt
tho bulkhcal. only to see the waves
tear itaway The rudderw was thrown
out of gear, and tho sea made clean
breach over the ship.
Men and women alike helped to
bail the water out OF tho vessel, but
tho sea poured in irrcsistihly. Tho
captain told the passengers that
there was little hope left, but urged
them to be cool Among the passen
gers were the members of French
opera company, and the prima donna
worked at the buckets like the rest,
Just about dawn the captain sol
emily addressed the crew and pas
seugcrs. He told them that the ship
must 70 down. Men and women
rushed about the deck yelling, tear
ing their clothes off and plunging
into the soothing sea. There were
several lifcboats, but they could not
be lowered in such waves So the
boats remained on the deck and
were loaded with people, who wait
cd for the Evening Star to sink.
The captain wept and babe farewell
to his companions The crew main
tanned gooi discipline. In IN hour
the ship gave lurch and plunged
down into the ocean. The crowded
lifCbJats wtrc sucked under, and the
sea was full of men and women call.
ing in vain for help. Scores of them
were crushed into shapeless masses
by the dliftwood that swirlel around
the wreck. Tho last person to leave
the ship before she sank was an Ital-
ian prima donna, who waited calmly
until AL hope was gone, and when
she felt the first CONFUSION of the
vessel rs it prepared to so down she
raised her hands, moved her lips MS
if in prayer and plunged into the
roaring waters, never to be seen
again.
Only few were saved. They
drifted around without food or
drink, half mad with fear until they
were pichcu up.-~Eew York Herald
