The petroleum production of Russia
last year is expected, when the figures
are made public, to show an increase
over that of 1905, when it was 10000
600 barrels. This was thirty1eight per
cent. of the worlds supply and consid-
erably exceeded the production of the
United States east Of the Missouri and
Mississippi Rivers the same year,
which totaled 80, 100000 barrels, or
twenty-eight per cent. Of the worlds
snpply. The burning quality Of Amer

Atchison Found Guilty.

49, -
Washington, ID: C.-"Flagrant, wilful
and continuous violations" Of the law
during the past five ..ears is the way
in which the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe Railroad is arraignedtina de
cision promulgated By the Interstate
Commerce Commission on ''the alleged
unlawful rates and practices" of that
road in the transportation of coal mine
supplies, involving also the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company. The main
points Of the decision, summarizing
the way in which it is alleged the law
has been violated and disregarded, are
as follows:
THE act to regulate commerce re-
quires carriers to publish and adhere
to their tariffs. The Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe Railway Company has
for the last five years wilfully and
continuously violated the provisions of
this law in the respects above stated.
February 10, 1903, the so-called FL
kinS bill was enacted, providing that
carriers should in no case transport
traffic until q tariff haC been published,
and that the published tariff should be
observed. and providing a penalty of
not less than $1,000 nor more than 800
600 for each Ofense.
""The provisions of this statute ex-
tend both to the railway company
which grants and the party which re-
ceives the concession. Both the Santa
Fe and the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company Systematically and %continu'
OusIy violated the provisions of that
act in the particulars mentioned from
the day Of it's passing down to Novem'
Der %. 1904, when the tariffs under
which this coal moved were reduced in
all cases $1.15."

George H. Wood, who is wanted in
connection with the murder Of George
Williams, a grocer. at Watching, n.

al examination, said he was not under
the influence of drugs, but was appar.
emily suffering from aphasia.
The Detective Bureau called up Chief
of Police Kiely, of Plainfeld, N. J.,
who read off a description of the al
legged murderer of Williams. 1t tailed
with the description of Wood except
as.to age. Wood says he is twenty-six
years old, but the man who saw the
supposed muGdererof Williams thought
the man was t~hirty-five years old. The
murderer was described as having a
mustache. Wood was clean shaver.
but he said he renewed his mustaehe

at Oon on the road to Millington.
KILLED by a highwayman for his
money!" was the first judgment, for
Williams, who was a prosperous gro
Ger, had been known to carry goodly
sums. But that simple explanation
failed and mystery shrouded the case
when search Of his pockets revealed
his cash and papers untouched.
About 10 O'Clock e. m. a stranger
alighted from a Plainfield trolley car
near the Washingtonville Hotel and
inquired at that place where he could
get somebody to drive him to a Mr..
POllock's house or. the road to Milling

Ter, in Watching, but Dembler, was

The two started OF together in d
sleigh. That was the last seen Of
Williams alive. At noon Eugene Pope,
passing along the road, came upon the
sleigh and its CHASTITY freight. The spot
where the crime was committed is sur
rounded on either. side by a dense
wood. Pope rushed to John Milier'S

Washington, D. C.-The Republican

Representative Townsend, a new mem

forty or fifty Republican members who
are unwilling TO be bound by the action
of the conference, do not like the
Townsend bill as it stands. The Penn

When that vote was taken several
members of the Pennsylvania delega-

was merely advisory, Mr.. Hepburn
held. Had the meeting been called a

AThe action taken by the conference
Is regarded as a victory for President
Roosevelt. His supporters had the
votes to turn the so-called conference
into a caucus, thus making it's action
binding, but they did not choose to
use their power. They believe that
they will. beTable to passethe bill with

They hope, however, that the objectors

of some $4,000 Russian troops and the

ing a strong citadel, which makes it the
chief military center of Poland. The

are of pure Polish blood, and of the
Roman-Catholic faith. The next most
important element in the population is
the Jewish. They form perhaps a third
