COppER ISN'T OIL
A Fact inc Standard Oil Company
 Has Learned.

New York, June 6.-The loss 10 the
 Standard Oil crowd in the copper
 speculation at it's lowest poina today
 was a total of $4,5OO, 900. This is on
 the assumption that all of the present
 holders can be described as Standard
 Oil men. As a matter of fact, a mum
 Der of outsiders are holding on to the
 stock for which they subscribed, and
 they are among the losers. Actual
 losses to the Standard Oil men are
 greater n proportion because they
 still have faith in the ultimate success
 of their blind pool way of doing bus
 mess. In that faith they kept on buy
 ing more Cf the stock on the way down
 and at the end of the day they were
 said to have taken up 5000 more
 shares in addition to what they have.
 Originally the City National bank an
 nounced that the Standard Oil men
 would not be the majority subscribers
 to the copper trust. There is reason that it was their plan at the time No facts have since been made public Subscription books and stock records have been locked up in the bank h. formation as to the names of stock holders and who owns the majority has not been given out. The assets and liabilities of the new company have yet to be made known. The ex- act status of the concern at present is that of a general subscription on paper subscriptions of all outsiders having been fully paid in. The status of the subscriptions of the insiders is not known and when the City banks statements for the week of payment appeared there was no indication of any payments by the insiders at all.
 Facts like these qualify the esti- mate of the loss of the syndicate on the decline in the value of the stock today. It has been suggested never theless that the insiders did in fact pay in the full amount Of their sub scriptions, but that they had done so by order, ordering the City bank to take it out of their deposit accounts. Such transactions, it was explained, ! would not appear in the weekly bank statement. It was a plausible explana- rion, but it taxes credqlity on account of the heavy capitalization of the trust. That was placed at 5000 OOO 1 It is supposed today that outsiders l hold between $5,O0O,OOO and $10.O0O,- 900 of the stock. The remaining sixty five or seventy millions have been paid | up by the insiders or it may not. The | reputation of the City bank is all that saves the insiders, for it is beyond the i ability of the financial community here | to believe that the bank would be a | party to anything of the kind At the | same time the bank must necessarily | do all that the Standard Oil men ask. ! It is supposed that their wishes are fn fact complied with so long as they are within reason. It is for instance known thaS the bank, together with one other trust company, will take the stock on loans for the same percentage

POLITE HIGHWAYMAN
He Gets Into Trouble by Giving a
 Stolen Watch to a Girl

| Chicago, June 6.-John DiebOld was walking along Adams street late last night when he was approat he'd by a stranger.
 Rather wet evening", remarked the man. The hour is late and you should be at home. I will interrupt you just a few moments"
 Before Diebcld could make a reply he discovered he was looking iLto the barrel of a revolver.
 ''The operation will take but a few minutes, and I assure you it will be entirely painless" said the highway man, unless you are disposed to ob- ject. Tn that case something is likely tc' happen. But, as there is nov .anJ understanding between us, I do nos expect serious trouble Raise your hands just a little higher and don't move an inch"
 Dieb0Id was too surprised tc speak, and his hands went into the air. The robber searched his pockets and ra- moved a watch and S2 He then started away, but suddenly turned and in the politest manner possible informed Dig3old that he had forgot ten something.
 The operation is not quite fin ishad." he said, and it will be neces- sary for me to detain you a short while longer. Remember, ycu must remain perfectly quiet
 Then he removed a gold ring from iebo,d's finger and placed it in his pocket
 The operation was entirely sue cessful," said the rob2er as he juggled his revolver piayfulIy, and I am glad of it. You may now return to your home and I hope you will sleep and rest we'll"
 The thief disappeared and would have escaped arrest had he not given the watch to his sweetheart. who tried to paIwn it. She was arrested and betrayed her lover, who was cap tured. He gave the name of John Mock and admitted his guilt.

New York, June 6.-The tax com missioners have formally decided to deny the application of William Wal dorf Ast0P to have his personal prep erty assessment of s2,0O0,OO0 vacated on the ground that he is no longer a resident of New York city The 8ffi~ davit of non-residence was made by MT. Astor in England, and he after ward came to this country and sub mitted to a cross-examination before President Feitner by Assistant Corpo- ration Counsel Ward. The testimony was taken behind closed doors. and MT. Feitner refused to make it public. After the examination, however. Mr. Ward stated that, in his opinion, the assessment would have to be vacated MT. Feitner said the same thing.
 Something happened to change the oDinicn of the president of the tax department. Just what that soms- thing was nobody who knows will tell The ostensible ground for refusing to Facate the assessment is that MT. Astor n Cbeying the summons of MT. Feitner to appear in person before him for examination on the allegations contained ill the non-residence affi- davits admitted the jurisdiction of the New York city department and is, therefore, liable here to personal prop erty assessment.
