HELPED STOP SPECULATION.
Boyiess Compliment to the Standard.
Called Pure Oil Company an
Octonus and N Trust.

WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-Mr. P. G..
Boyle continued his testimony concern
ing the coal oil industry before the in
dustrial commission. He estimated that
fully SiOO, ,0UO 900 had been lost by the
public Ill oil speculation from 1870 to
1850. TINS was stopped through joint
efforts of tie standard Oil company and
the Producers Protective ASSOCIATION.
..As Il consequence" he said, 1--WE
have now an oil market, in which the
consumer fixes the price and with which
the speculator mas nothing to DO"
To speculation andto overpoduction
he attributed the low price of oils.
Mr.. Boyle also gave history OF vari-
Gus organizations, including the Pure
Oil company. i'll which President Phil
lips of the commission islnterested. Mr..
Boyle insisted upon calling this COM
pany a trust, and when questioned by
Mr.. Phillips said it was because the first
president of the company, Mr.. David
Kirke, had himself so designated it. He
referred TO the company also as IAN oe-
topus, saying that it had made an at
tempt to absorb all the allied interests
in the Producers association, and that
it had achieved considerable success. LII
this connection, he read the original
prospectus of the company. In this
prospectus the oil company was referred
to as IL trust. Mr.. Phillips took occa-
sion to explain that the company was
only trust for voting purposes.
Mr. Boyle said that drillers could
make an average of $1,000 year for 200
days work
B. \. Matthews, manager for the
Standard company ut Columbus, cam
before the commission to refute state
ments made before the commission
some months ago by one W. II. Clarke,
who had been agent for the company
ct Newark, 0. Among these state
ments Were allegations that the Stand
ard company had sold oils from the
ss lie tank at different prices and had
mixed coal oil and turpentine. These,
with other charges, made by Clarke,
were pronounced false. He stated that
Clarke had been discharged from the
emplcy of the company under cloud.

that Dreyfus had expressed keen de.
sire. i'll 1891, to enter the statistical Sec
ton of the war Office, and saying that
he met Dreyfns once carrying some
voluminous packets of maps and docu-
ments and remarked that he was acting
very imprudently
Dreyfus then rose and calmly ira
versed Captain Humbert's statements,
declaring them to be ineXact.
General Mercier, after saying that the
evidence of Captain Freystaetter must
have greatly influenced the Judges, re-
ferred to the attacks on himself made
by the revisionist newspapers, saying
that i'll consequence of Freystaetter's
assertions he had been described as u
forger. In addition to the testimony of
Colonel Maurel. his own testimony, he
said, was confirmed by Du Patty de
CLAIMS deposition.
He maintained that in 1894 lie gave
orders that the various translations of
the Panizzardi telegram received from
the foreign Office should not be taken
into account, and he cited the tcsti-
mony of General de Boisdeffre and NJ.
Gribelin on this point. The sealed ell
velope handed to the courtmartial of
1894, the general also said, was made
up in his presence and did not contain
the PanizZardi telegram.
He, the witness, had questioned the
officers who acted as Judges in the
courtmartial of 1894 in regard to the
presentation to the court of secret
envelope. All, with a single exception,
had assured him that they did not re-
member reading the Panizzardi tele-
gram, although they could not declare
under oath that it was not among the
documents. These officers apologized
for the vagueness of their recollections
after the lapse of five years. He read
an old letter from Freystaetter to a
friend in which the captain expressed
his belief i'll the guilt of Dreyfus. The
general quoted a number of statements
to the same effect, alleged to have been
made by Freystaetter
General Mercier said he reproached
Captain Freystaetter for engaging in
newspaper discussions, which, perhaps,
resulted in ideas being substituted for
his personal recollection, which indi-
Gated certain mental arrangement.
In support of the theory of lunacy,
Mercier mentioned that Freystaetter,
while in Madagascar, was once guilty
of -disobeying his commander and on
another occasion the captain executed
30 natives without trial.
In conclusion Mercier invited the
Judges to nav no attention to CAPTAIN
Freystaetter's statements, but to accord
to the evidence which he himself had
the honor to give all the confidence and
moral authority they would have re.
posed in it if the Freystaetter incident
had nayer haunenad

MYSTERY
Of the Cave Deepens.
Femur Bone of Another
Giant Was Found.
Picked up In a Second
Deep Ledge.
Professional Men Visit the
Strange Place.
Mr.. Hardy Believes Murder Has
Mr.. Hardy Believes Murder Has
Been Committed.

Another visit was made to the
quarrie> of the Akron White Sand
and Stone company Thursday after
noon by DEMOCRAT reporter.
He was accompanied to the place
by Drs. J. V. Cleaver and Percy
Buchtel. They made a careful in
spection of the crevice wherein were
found the skull, skeleton and other
specimens of prehistoric race of
human beings.
A careful search resulted in the
finding of bone, which DR.. Cleaver
pronounced was the rib of either a
child or monkey. Several bushels
of earth taken from the crevice were
carefully sifted. This resulted in
the finding of many curios, such as
arrow heads, Indian beads and small
bones.
Another crevice.
The party discovered another ledge
in which was picked up the femur
bone of male OF extraordinary size.
1t differs materially from any of the
others which Were found, proving
conclusively that several human be-
ings perished or We're buried in the
rift in the rocks.
Indian Fort.
Drs. Cleaver and Buchtel are in
clined to the belief that the place
was once the site of an Indian fort.
The surroundings, they say, point
strongly to that fact. II not a fort it
was probably a burying ground.
An Extinct Race.
However, there are some things in
connection with the discovery which
indicates that these opinions are not
well founded. DR.. Cleaver was sure
that the large skull, in the possession
of Mr.. Hardy. was not that of an In
dian. 1t is much too large. If not
that of an Indian, it is that of race
long since extinct.
Believes There Was Murder.
Mr.. Hardy, the owner of the pro-
perty, says he is certain that murder
has been committed and bodies
thrown in the crevice to conceal the
crime. Years ago that country was
headquarters for a gang of horse
thieves and cut throats. He believes
they could, if alive, explain the
mystery of the skeletons.
Another Blast.
Another blast will be made at the
quarry in short time. Startling
are anticipated.
