The Industrial Commission this morn
ing resumed it's hearing on trusts. Pat
rick C. Boyle, editor of the "Oil City Der
rick" took the stand Vice Chairman
Thomas W. Phillips, of the Commission,
began the examination Of the witness as
to his connc<tion with the Standard Oil
Company. Mr.. Boyle said he was consid-
cred sole proprietor of the ''Oil City Der
rick but there were five other stockhold-
erS.
In answer to direct question by Mr..
Phillips he said that the Standard Oil Com
pany had no pecuniary interest in the DER
rick nor had w. ]. Young ever taken an
active interest in that publication. The

organ of the Standard DMSCompany. AS
matter of fact the "Defrick had published
much adverse criticisms az to the methods
of the Standard Oil Company. That was be-
fore and until 1879.
Since then, the witness admitted that al
though some criticisms had been published
by that paper on the Standard Oil Com
pany, the Derrick" had been rather
friendly to the company. 1t had even stood
for the producers in opposing taxation on
the pipe lines. The newspaper had taken
the position that the pipe lines had never
paid dividend.
Mr.. Phillips here asked the witness II he
had come before the Commission en- his own
volition or by solicitation.
Mr.. Boyle answered that he had not
come before the Commission at the solicit
tation Of the Standard Oil Company, but
had been Influenced to come here and vol
unteer his testimony through certain mis-
statements which had been made to the
Commission, and which he desired to cor

''The crab season, which has been q most prof
table one will soon Close said a well.known
dealer in shellfsh to Times reporter this morn
ing. ''The oyster is now taking the place OF the
crab. The blizzard Of last winter did great
damage to the crab crop, and up to the month
of June the crustaceans were very scarce, and
therefore brought good price in the market.
Even now crabs are worth three times their
value as compared with last year. The people
OF Washington have in the past few years culti-
waited & taste for the delicate crab meat, and the
demand for that toothsome food has been and
is now greater than the supply. But while crabs
have held sway as an article Of food this sum-
mer, they will now give way to the oyster,
which promises to be plentiful and cheap, and
as the season advances the crab will gradually
drop out OF sight, although the hotels and board.
