NEW YORK, Nov. TO- -Respecting the
report that negotiations are under way for
a great consolidation OF steel interests, to
include the Carnegie companies, American
Steel and Wire company and the National
Steel company banker who was inter-
ested in the attempt made last spring to
effect a combination. said today:

such venture in contemplation think
] should know Of it, | know the men who
hold the properties are alive TO the pres
ent condition of affairs and If they could
not make the combination last spring, when
it was more favorable than it Is today, it
seems scarcely likely they would attempt
it now. New York is in a more favorable
situation than any other money market
of the world and with normal conditions
abroad we would probably ba receiving gold
from abroad now. But We are in no condi-
tion to launch further enterprises now.

STANDARD CONTROLS RATES
Canadian Dealer In Petroleum Tcsti-
hes before Industrial Commission
Regarding oii Monopoly,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10-The Industrial
commission resumed its sessions today and
at the morning session listened to the testi-
mony of Mr. Andrew y. Gall OF Montreal
Can, dealer in petroleum. MIR. Calls
statement dealt almost entirely with the
operations OF tho Standard oil company in
Canada. He represented that the company
had a monopoly of the refined oil business
in the Dominion and 1t is impossible to pur-
chase from the company unless the pur-
chaser agrees to buy all his goods from
the Standard reiners He complained espe
cially of the freight rates, which are ex-
tremely discrimlnative against American
oils He gave instances in which only IL
cents a hundred was charged on Canadian
oil from Montreal to st. Johns, whereas, "a
cents was charged on the American product.
The rate on oil from American points had
been almost doubled in the last year, the
entire increase being on the Canadian end
of the roads. He also said the present duty
on American oil imported into Canada was
3 cents per gallon, or 100 per cent. He was
hopeful however, that this duty would be
lowered Mr.. Gall also said that the Stand
ard people were in the habit of sending
men into the yards Of opposition companies
and taking out samples.
Then the Standard Oil company prac-
tically runs your country--its railroads and
its government Mr.. Livingston.
at certainly controls our roads," re-
sponded the witness, "but l would not say
so much concerning the government"
He was satisfied the policy of the rail-
roads and the freight rates was not the
result Of the policy of retaliation on the
part of the Canadian government against
the United States.
He said that there were nine refneries in
Canada before the combination was effected.
but most of them had since been demol-
ished. One owner of a refinery had told
him that he had received $4,000 for plant
that was not worth to him $4,000. This
consolidation had been effected In 1885, and
since then the price of oil had advanced
from 1914 cents to II cents per gallon. He
was satisfied that the Standard company re-
ceived rebates from the railroad company,
but did not have proof that such was
the case. He thought the company had
made immense profits in Canada within the
last three months and said the Standard
people had been handling the Canadian
product there because it was more profit
able than the American.

CINCINNATI Nov. 10.--After hearing
arguments today for a modification of his
order Of sale for the Glover Leaf system Of

he would make an additional entry to!nor-
row. The appearance of Attorneys Ford

vision OF the order OF the court so as to
include additional claims among the liens.

this action and that Receiver Samuel Hunt

No Errrcr WITHOUT 4 CAUSE.

This is true, vet for many ages no
one could account For the mystcri-
Gus and eNcruclatlng pains that,
seemingly with VI sufficient cause,
tortured the hapless sufferer, and
oftentimes twisted his limbs out of
all scmblancc of humanity.
Science, however, has at length
solved this problem, and has pro-
claimed that rheumatism, in all its
varied phases is due to uric acid in
the blood.
Hence, when one is afflicted with
rheumatism he knows there is too
much acid in his blood.
How does this happen. 1t must
be the bloods purifiers, the liver,
and especially the Kidneys are out
of order and do not properly per-
form their functions.
But how can they be restored to
their normal healthy state? Hun
drcds of thousands of grateful, and
now healthy, people will endorse
the answers:
Use Warmers Safe Cure, which
will check an excess of acid, dis
solve the acid deposit, and produce
Il normal and healthy condition of
the kidneys and liver, and then, the
cause being removed, the rheuma-
tism will quickly disappear.
