the mar who turns to Nature and lets her
help him may yet save himself. Medical
science knows this, and its highest authori-
ties affirm that the utmost medical skill
can do is to help Nature.
The great success Of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery in curing wasted bodies,
weak lungs, and obstinate and lingering
coughs, is based on the recognition Of
this fundamental scientific truth. Golden
Medical Discovery" supplies Nature with
body building, tissue repairing, muscle
making materials, in condensed and con.
centrated form. With this help Nature
supplies the strength to throw off diseases
Of the lungs, heal the sick stomach, re-
establish the digestive and nutritive organs
blood, and nourish the nerves.
If your dealer offers something lust as

pays better. But you are thinking Of the

STANDARD OIL METHODS.
lndustrial Commission Hesrs IN Inds
pendent Producer.

bS0OVuS
WASHINGTON, June 19.--The indus
trial committee heard a statement from
d. NJ. Lockwood, an oil producer of
Z~elienople, Pa, in opposition to the
Standard Oil company. The witness
declared that this company had driven
the independent companies into bank.
ruptcy and servitude and he denounced
the course pursued in severe terms. He
held the railroads especially responsible
for this condition of affairs. Going
back TO 1872 he referred at length to a
contract made by the trunk lines Of
Pennsylvania with the South Improve
ment company. Under this contract.
he said. the freight rates on oil were
doubled and half the amount collected
was paid back as a rebate-not ONLY
this, but the contract company received
a like rebate on the ships of all other
companies. This contract. he declared.
had been secretly continued by the rail
roads with the Standard Oil company.
He quoted A. j. Cassatt, the new presi.
dent of the Pennsylvania railroad, a.
testifying before the interstate railroad
commission TO the effect that while the
open rate to the public was Sl.9 ) per
barrel, the rate TO the Standard com.
pany was ~ cents. Further investiga-
ton, said Mr.. Lockwood. had developed
the fact that the railroad companies ac-
tually received only 81 cents. This
condition Of affairs had resulted for a
time, according TO the witness, in Civ
ing the Standard company a profit Of
400 per cent, while the independent re-
fineries Were being rapidly driven into
bankruptcy.
If You have got to be robbed" he
exclaimed, lit does not matter much
whether you are held up by Dick Tur-
pin with a pistol. or by John Rookie
Teller with a railroad; it is really all the
same"
He said that men who had carefully
analysed the testimony taken before
the Hepburn committee estimated that
In ls6 months time the five trunk lines
lines Of Pennsylvania a had paid the
Standard company 81, ZOO. 900 in re-
bates. The railroad companies had. he
said, completely ignored the order Of
the interstate commerce commission to
stop their discrimination in favor Of
the Standard Oil company, resorting
then to the system Of false billing.
Public Ownership the Remedy.
Speaking Of the remedy for the evil.
Mr.. Lockwood said it was in public
ownership Of the railroads, and it was
not to be found in the courts, the courts
were too slow and expensive.
"The railroads and the oil
a razoo a mar up and down in the
courts for ~ years." he said, until he
is ruined financially and then 20
on with their work, leaving
their victim stranded. AS a reward
the combines elevate their instruments
to higher places politically. Thus it
was that the thought of the common
people was gradually becoming fixed to
the effect that the great railway COM
bines were gradually packing the su-
preme court with men in sympathy
with their monopolistic tendency, and
who would do their bidding. Thus the
interstate commerce law was rendered
ineffective.

MAUSERS HAVE
A LONGER RANGE

Manila, March 6.-10:30 a. m.-The
United States transport Ohio arrived
yesterday. In the last two days there
has been a very noticeable change in
Manila for the better, probably due to
the arrival of reinforcements for the
American troops. Numbers of people
are seen upon the streets and the
amount of business transacted in the
stores has materially increased. Yes
terday the Luenata was blocked with
carriages for the first time since the
outbreak and the band of the Goth regu-
lars played a number of airs, and it was
hard to believe that state of war exist
ed. outside the city there was desultory

ing At San Pedro Macati the rebels are
very active, erecting entertainments in
front of the position occupied by the
Washington troops, although two gun
battery of the Sixth artillery repeatedly
shelled them. The enemy are fully alive
to the fact that Mausers have a much
longer range than the Springfelds and
are continuously taking pot shots" in
comparative safety. The American sol
diers dislike this passive resistance and
are eager for the excitement of an active
campaign.
DESPITE the heat the health of the
men in the trenches has improved re-
markably. Assistant Engineer Winship
of the gunboat Bennington, was wounded
in both legs yesterday by a vOlley from
shore.
The maritime steamer FL Cano has
arrived from Iloilo with advices that all
is quiet there and that business is brisk.
The natives in the interior. the steamer

Canned Roast Beef Furnished
Was No Good.
MORE TESTIMONY TAKEN
Only One Witness Oh the Stand To-
day, But His Evidence Was I'M
p0rtant--Coming West

Washington, March 6.-The war de-
partment court of inquiry held a very
brief session today, the last before their
start for the west, where they will in
spect the packing plants of Chicago,
Omaha and Kansas City.
There was but one witness examined,
Lieutenant Frederick l.. Munson, Ninth
infantry. He said that during his SER
vice in Cuba up to the surrender of San
tiago his command had as a meat COM
ponent of the ration bacon and canned
roast beef, in the proportion of about ten
days of the former to fifteen days of
ceived no complaints of the canned roast
beef, but after the surrender his commits
sary sergeant reported to him that some
thing was making the men very sick.
They did not know what it was, but
thought il was something they had
eaten. After eliminating every other
thing that they could think of they con-
cluded it must be the canned roast beef.
He ordered the cooks to try fixing up
the meat in stews, with hard tack and
tomatoes, but it seemed to make no diff
ference. The men continued sick. The
men then discontinued the use of the
beef. On the voyage home they still had
corned beef, but the men did not eat it.
He tried to turn it in to the cOmnniSSary
at Montauk, but the commissary would
not receive it.
OF the refrigerator beef, witness said
the principal objection to it was that it
spoiled before the men received it. He
was obliged to condemn his whole con-
signment of refrigerato tor beef three times.
The health of the men remained good
until about two Weeks before leaving,
when the command broke down all in a
bunch. His command was the head
quarters Of the provost guard, made up
of old and picked men. They were not
the sort to complain of anything until
they had reached the very limit of en-
durance. Their sickness was almost en-
tirely bowel and stomach trouble.
This wound up the taking of testimony
in Washington and the court adjourned
to meet in Chicago on Thursday.

THREE MUTINOUS
SAILORS SHOT

Philadelphia, March 6.-Captain Tor
rance, commanding the British tanker
Tancarville, now in this port, shot three
mutinous sailors on his last outward
passage to Belfast. 1t was on Jaunary
10 last while weathering a terrific hurri-
cane. His vessel was driving into tre-
mendous sea and a spar propeller that
was lashed below got adrift and threat
ened to knock the sides out of the ship
Captain Torrance ordered the crew be-
low to secure the propeller and they mu-
tinted. Heroic action was necessary and
Captain Torrance was compelled to shoot
three men, One, it is understood, has
since died, and a second has gone insane
CANAAN Torranoes actions were investi
gated by the board of trade and he was
upheld by that body. He is reticent con-
cerning the affair and feels keenly the
fact that such measures had to be adopt
ed by him to save the ship.

Weston, w. V, March s. ,ud which
has existed for many year n Ween the
ReXroads and Simmonses, prominent peo-
pie Of Lewis county, was the cause of d
shocking tragedy this morning, in which
j. c. ReXroad will lose his life. Many
lawsuits have been the outcome of their
dealings. both parties being wealthy land
owners, whose farms adjoin.
The heavy wind storm of a few nights
ago blew the rails off the line fence over
on the Rexroad side. They were piled
up where they lay. Yesterday Mr. Clark
Simmons, accompanied by James Bon
nett, went upCn the land of Mr.. ReXroad
to get the rails. Mr. Reyroad appeared
upon the scene. A fist conflict took place,
IN which it appears Mr.. Simmons was
Worsted. Threats We're exchanged.
Mr.. Simmons, again accompanied by
Mr.. Eonnett, went to get the rails about
10 O'Clock this morning. They were met
on the scene by Mr.. ReXroad, who had
shotgun. When they were but ten feet
apart all parties fred Mr.. Rexroad with
his shot gun, Mr.. Simmons and Bennett
with revolvers.
Mr.. ReXroad's shot went wide, While
the bullets from the pistols of Simmons
and Bonnet took effect, one piercing Rex
roads neck and shoulder and the other
making scalp wound upon the forehead
just above the left eye. Simmons and
Bennett were arrested and bound over to
the grand jury, which convenes Monday
next. Simmons is the eX-president of the
county court and an aSprant for sheriff.
