An Oil Dealers Victory.

It has been pointed out often
that the public can have practically
whatever degree OF competition or
independent marketing 1t desires,
whether as to oil or anything else,
by judicious distribution of It's
patronage. The usual process by
which the public is kept from do.
Ing this is through the bait TO cut
prices. Though this process Is
generally effective, there are excep-
lions to the rule, as witness the fol
lowing dispatch of the 1st inst,
sent out from Indianapolis, Ind:
Emil Andres, dealer in oil at
Jacksonville, has Just come out
victorious over the Standard OIL
Company In fight that has been
carried on for nearly two years
Andres ran a tank wagon and
bought his oil from the Standard,
but 1t put up the price and he went
over to Louisville and purchased his
supply from an Independent COM
pany. The Standard put out tank
wagons and dropped the price of
oil to eight cents, but Andres con-
tinued to sell at ten cents a
gallon and held his trade. The
Standard dropped the price to
Eve cents, but Andres still held
his trade at ten. Then he went
among the grocers and other re-
tailers and opened house for whole
sale'ng and took many of the Stand.
ards customers away, although he
was selling the independent oil at
higher prices. Today the Stand
ardgave zap the fight by taking Its
tank wagon out of the town, and
Andres has the field to himself"
In the foregoing dispatch 1t Is
made apparent, though not so stated
Directly, that the Jacksonville
public had the good judgement and
sense of fairness to appreciate that
Mr.. Andres could not afford to do
business at loss, and that If he
were compelled to shut up shop or
sell out In consequence of the cut
rates. the public would be required
10 settle In higher prices the mo.
nopoly bill incurred In putting him
out of business. IF every other
community were to exercise the
same kind of Judgment, with ref
erence not only to oil but to all
other products and services, there
would be no occasion for the ex-
hibitions of inconsistency so fire.

RECORDS SMASHED AT MEMPHIS
A Remarkable Day of Rncimg-G Gallant
 Attempt of Cresceus.

Memphis, Tenn, Oct. 2S.-Two worlds records broken, another one tied and a gallant attempt by the great Cresceus to lower his trotting record were the sensational features at the driving park this afternoon. The exhl- bitions of Cresceus and Onward Silver were reserved for the end of the days sport. It was after 5 o'clock when On- ward Silver, accompanied by runner appeared for his great effort to lower the two-mile trotting record of 4:2912, made by himself last week at LeXing- ton. At the second trial the starter gave Hudson the word and the hand some trotter fairly flew around the hrst turn. Hudson apparently checked his speed at the quarter, which was passed in :34A, Going down the back stretch, Onward Silver broke, but soon regained his stride. The half was reached in 1:0S% and the three-quarter pole in 1:411a. Here the running horse set
 hot pace to the wire and the mile was made in 2:141a. At the next pole the time registered 2:4S14. Down the back stretch again Onward Silver moved with clocklike precision and the mile and a half post was reached in 3;21A. Here the runner again set hot pace and at the last quarter pole the timers registered 3:541a Hudson began to urge the horse in the stretch. and when the wire was re ched new worlds rec ord was hung out, the time being 4:2sA. Both horse and driver received an ova- ton.
 Cresceus, with two runners, next ap- peared. Ketcham sent him along at a lively gait to the quarter in BIZ When the half was passed in 1:02 old horse
 men shook their heads and remarked that the 2:02A record was safe. The three-quarter pole was reached in 1:3311s and the mile was finished in 2:O4 fiat.
