Standards Principal Competitor.

Beaumont. Tex, June 2S.-The Gulf Re- fnng company, which is the complainant in a petition filed with the interstate com merce commission at Washington today, alleging rate discrimination on a group of southern railways in favor of the Standard oil company. is a Texas corpor- ation and one of the largest independent oil refining concerns in the United States, and recognized as the principal competitor of the Standard oil company in this coun- try. It Is branch of the J. M. Guffy Petroleum company of Pittsburg. with . capitalization of sl.OO0.0O0. It's refinery is located at Port Arthur. Tex. from which pipe lines radiate to all portions of the Texas oil region touching every field. It's capacity is 10000 barrels a day.
 The Gulf Refining company maintains close business relations with the Shell oil and Transport company of London the principal competitor of the Standard oil company in Europe.
 Upon the result of the action taken to- day. it is believed hinges the construc- ton of pipe lines from Kansas City to the gulf.
 It is definitely known that the inter- ests behind the present move have been considering such a proJect. which means one of the largest feAts with which the Standard oil company has ever contended.

CITY IN POSSESSION
 OF THE STRIKERS.

The Kniaz Potemkine is more power full ship than any in Kruger's squadron and the gravity of the situation is in creased by the fact that the city Is prac- ticallv in possession of the strikers, who, according to the dispatches, had already been encouraged to open resistance by the sailors and were erecting barricades and fighting the police and the troops in the streets. The body of Miltehuk. lying ex- posed on the quay to the view of thou sands and the story of his cruel death. evidently fired imaginations of the work men. who in Odesso are of particularly turbulent character, especially the dock and wharf men.
 Should the sailors of Kruger's ships join the mutineers the government would have to face open revolution which would spread like wild fire to other towns from which sailors are largely recruited, which are imbued with the socialistic and revo- lutionary propaganda. At Sebastopol, less than month ago, disorders were supp nressed with difficulty.

Oli- yer of Knoxville, wealthy contractor, for alimony aggregating $116000, was submitted to Judge Pendleton in the superior court today without jury, by consent of both sides.

RED FLAG HolsTED ON
 THE BIG BATTLESHIP.

During the day red flag was hoisted on the Knlaz Potemkine and members of the crew rode from ship to ship in the harbor forcing the stoppage of all work theron. Food was supplied them by sym pathizers on shore who pillaged the mar itime storehouses.

to stand trial by court martial upon their return. Practically all of the crews of the vessels which surrendered came from the Black sea.
 The fact that Odessa is not fortified port explains why the Kniaz Potemkine is able to lie in the harbor unmolested.
 The news of the mutiny coming just at this time when Poland is in d state of ferment, when agrarian disorders are com ing to a head and when the government Is attempting mobilization involving about 200 600 men, may easily precipitate crisis and the authorities are endeavoring to keep it from the public All newspaper dispatches have been stopped and the newspapers have been forbidden to men tion the mutiny. Nevertheless the liberals and agitators have many ways of spread ing the tidings through underground channels and for instance in St. Peters burg the news was known in all cafes at midnight

RIOTERS WILL NEVER GIVE UP WITHOUT FIGHT.

The rioters are in most defiant mood and are not inclined to surrender with out fighting.
 Reports of the mutiny which occurred while the battleship was at sea, are diff fcult to obtain as the mutineers refuse to allow communication with the shore but it is ascertained that it arose from the shooting of a sfilor who was pre- senting on behalf of the crew. com nlaint against bad food According to one version this sailor whose named was Omiltchuk, objected to the quality or the .borchtch," or soup and was immediate lv shot by a mess officer. The crew then rose and seized the ship and the officers, e;eht of whom were spared on condition that they would join the mutineers. Ihe otheres were killed and their bodies thrown overheard.

Standard Oil Rates Lower.


 It is alleged that the Standard Oil com pany Is given rates for oil southbound be- tween the same points follows:
 Chicago to New Orleans, 23 cents; St. Louis to New Orleans, 5o cents; Cin- cinnati to New Orleans, 22ls cents and Louisville to New Orleans, IS cents.
 According to the petition the total pro- duction of crude oil in Texas and Louis- jana the development If but four years now amounts to about 5O. 000.0U0 bar rels year; in comparison with total annual production in Kansas. Ohio, h. diana, West Virginia, Kentucky and Pennsylvania fields. of only 54.OOO,O0O bar rels.
 The petroleum transported by the de- fendants southbound Is carried almost entirely in tank cars which cars can carry no product other than petroleum oils and the petitioner argues that unless these cars can be loaded in the south with such oils for shipment northbound, they must and do return empty. Cotton seed oil and petroleum oils are placed by the rail- roads in the same class in the official clas- sifieation and the petition complains that discriminations in rates are made by the defendant railroads as follows;
 Between New Orleans and Chicago, northbound. petroleum 41c cotton seed 25c; New Orleans and St. Louis, petroleum Soc. cotton seed oil l9c; New Orleans and Cincinnati, petroleum 39c, cotton seed oil 2lc between New Orleans and Louisville, petroleum 35c, cotton seed l9c
 Among other charges the petition sets forth the following:
 Give Company an Advantage.
 The great part if not practically all of the southbound shipments or petroleum oils are made by companies owned, con trolled and operated by the Standard Oil company, and with refineries of that com pany, all of them situated north of the Ohio river; that the said rates also es- abolished and maintained give the Stand- ard oil company an undue and unreas- enable preference and advantage over the complainant and other companies produc- ing and refining petroleum in the states of Texas and Louisiana, and the said rates have been and are so established and maintained by the said defendants not in good faith in the conduct of the business of the said railroads. but solely for the purpose of preventing the complainant from marketing petroleum oils 9n the cities and territory described, in which the said Standard Oil company now has practically a complete monopoly of the said business.
 The high rate petroleum from St. Louis to New Orleans is declared by the petitioner to be due to the fact that the Standard oil company does not distribute these oils south from St. Louis
 The petition asks that the defendants be required to answer these charges. and after hearing and Investigation, they cease the practices complafnad of
