REBATES NOT NECESSARY.
Rev. Washington GLADDEN. Answers
MIR. Rogers.


Columbus, O., March 31-Dr Wash
ington GLADDEN., moderator Of the gen
eral council of congregational churches
of the United states, tonight gave out
the following reply to the statement
OF II. H. Rogers, vice president of the
Standard Oil company.
Mr.. Rogers alleges that the vast
sums eXtOrted in rebates BIZ the stan
dard oil company from it's competitors
We're legally taken because no law ex-
pliCitly forbade them. What ! said
was that the money was 'fagitiouslv'
acquired. To cOerCe the railroads into
large rebate on not only its own oil
but on all the oil sent by its coInpeti-
tors TO force the railways 10 rob it's
competitors for its enrichment was. I
submit 4 hagitious policy. a shameful
policy II there was no law at that
time by which that particular kind of
robbery could be punished. the robbery
was no less fragrant and outrageous.
II was by this means that this enor-
nous power was created
Il am not a lawyer, but / should
think it altogether possible that even
under the common law such an iniquity
as this might have been punished.
Railways which are chartered under
public law, must be required 10 render
TO all the people an equal service. IL
such use Of them as was made by the
Standard Oil company could not be
punished. our legal machinery would
be very defective
The denial that rebates have been
eXtOrted since the interstate commerce
law was passed is not creditable.
know from statements made TO myself
by parties implica ted that such rebates
have been eXactcd by other corpora

American board has been requested to
refuse d certain gift for it's mission

is the president of a corporation whose
business methods arc extensively criti-

burial expenses Of Sheridan Morrill,, who
was killed by train May while in

Vergennes, paid undertaken Ketcham in

other town for burial. Il. w. futile,
attorney for both Vergennes and Fer
risburg, informs The Messenger CORE
spondent that the matter has not been
mentioned to him by officials of either
town, which would seem to indicate that
it has not ben considered. No evidence
has yet been found to show beyond
quetsion that Morrill, was intoxicated
at the time he met his death, and if
he was, it is still to be proven that
Nergennes whisley was the cause.

MAY TEAh DOWN FENCE.
Proposition Made to Pave Square at
 Huntsville.

Huntsville, August 9.-(Special)-The city council and Madison county eommis- sioners have held several conferences recently and discussed the ques- ton of paving the public square with v1trified bricks and removing the iron fence around the courtyard which has for fifty years been used as a public hitching rack.
 For paving the square the county is asked to pay one-third of the expense, the same as all other owners of property will be required to pay. The hitching rack to which hundreds of Lorses are hitched every day for several hours has teen condemned by the board Of health as menace to health, and as more at tcntion than usual is being given at this time to sanitary considerations, It ap- pears likely that the ancient fence may soon be removed.
