Refuse Two Thirds Of Kansas Oil.
independence, Kas, Marc'l o. The
Prairie Oil and Gas company, the Kan
sas branch of the Standard OIL com-
pany, issued an order to the effect
that hereafter no Kansas oil testing
below thirty degrees gravity VIII be
bought by the company. This affects
nearly two thirds Of the Kansas pro-
duct.
The order is the hardest blow yet at
the Kansas Oil producers, as no oil will
be taken by this concern outside Of the
bottom Independence field, Neodes1la,
Tyro, and Chautauqua coursty.
This, it is believed, will not affect
the district where the state oil refinery
is to be located.
John O'Brien, vice president Of the
Prairie Company, in explaining the or
der said: =
"Oil below thirty degrees gravity is
undesirable. It has no value for refin-
ing purposes and 1t is impossible to

Grand Juror Hammer Testifies
He Never Read Affidavit
Which He Had Signed
NO GRAND JURY COLLISION
Statements in the Affidavit That Con-
tract BY Which Harrison County
Was to Escape Expense of Dennison
Trial Repudiated on the Stand To-
day-Dubuque Man Suicides.

Special to Times Republican.
Logan, March determination OF
the grand jurors today in the Dennison
case was all favorable to the prosecu-
tions. The attempt to show ir-
regularities in the proceedings has
been an entire failure. l. G. Hammer,
whose startling affidavit was given to
the public yesterday repudiates the
statements credited to him. He de-
clares he signed the affidavit without
it's contents, and denies any
collusion or contract in finding the in
dictment against Dennison. This will
dispose of one Of the principal elements
in the motion to quash.

beaten army, but the general staff in
sists while he has been defeated, yet
there has been no disaster.
The peril of the whole army, espec-l
tally the rear guard, is admitted and
Mukden may have been evacuated
during last night, although nothing
definite has been received on this point.
Yesterday Bilderling's army, which held
the center, fell back upon Hun river
