Hoch will, ii is believed, sign the bill
providing for the erection by the state
of an oil refinery. passed by the house
yesterday afternoon. but he declines
to say anything of his intentions. The
governor and his friends hoped. it
is said. to defeat the measure. but
the fact that the house passed it with
an overwhelming majority will prob
ably deter him from vetoing it. The
two bills passed by the house yester-
day affect not only the oil trust, so
called but other combines. The new
freight bill passed makes the rail-
roads common carriers. and in this
way the oil trust as well as other
trusts are to be fought. The anti-dis-
eliminating rates bill is set for vote
tomorrow and is said to have enough
votes to carry it. This measure was
drawn up with the intention of pre-
venting any trust from entering Kan
sas and underselling the state insti-
tutions.

Washington. d. c., Feb. 16.-Rep-
resentative Townsend, one of the au-
thors of the Esch-Townsend freight
rates bill, had a talk with the Presi-
dent today regarding the prospects
for the enactment of the measure in
to law. Townsend. who has canvass
ed the situation pretty thoroughly,
expressed the opinion that there was
a chance for the passage of the bill
by the senate at the present session
After his talk with the President
Townsend said that in the event no
legislation is enacted on the rate
question at this session, an extra ses-
sion of congress will be called by
Preident Roosevelt next autumn, per-
haps in October.

Four Hundred Million Dollars InvoIv-
ed in Change of Company.
New York, Feb. 16.-The crucial
point in the contest involving the con-
troll of four hundred millions of dol
lars will be reached this afternoon
when the directors of the Equitable
Life Assurance Society meet to con-
slider the question of changing the
association from a stock to a mutual
company On one side is James H.
Hyde, vice president and holder of
majority of the capital stock, while
arrayed against him is President Jas.
w Alexander of the association to-
gether with SO other officers of the
society. President Alexander and his
supporters propose the plan to change
the Equitable from a stock to a mu
tual company. Hyde does not object
so much to mutualizing the company
as to the method of Alexander in
bringing it about, saying that Alex
ander's plan would eliminate him
(Hyde) from the directorate. Several
efforts at compromise have been
made before the meeting today, but
they were unsuccessful.

er of Chicago, created a scene at the
inquest of Mrs. Marie Walker Hoch,

woman. The coroner announced to-
day that the expert medical testimo-
ny would not be presented until next

ing will be submitted.

Cardinal Mezzofanti had a memory
little short of miraculous. DIR. Russell,
his biographer. says that the cardinal
spoke with the greatest ease thirty Ian
guages, that he spoke fairly well nine,
that he used occasionally, but not with
fuency, eleven more; that he spoke i'm
perfectly eight and that he could read
eleven more. Taking, in addition, the
number of dialects he used, some so di-
verse from the mother tongue as to
constitute a different language, DR..
Russell says that the cardinal was
master of no less than Ill different
languages and dialects. His German
was so excellent that he was taken for
a native of Germany, while his French
and English were equally pure. DR..
Tholuck heard him converse in Ger.
man, Arabic, Spanish, Flemish, Eng
lish, Latin, Greek, Swedish and Por-
tuguese at one of the pOpes receptions,
and afterward Mezzofanti gave him an
original poem In Persian and left him
to take a lesson In Cornish. lie knew
several of the American Indian Ian
guages and nearly all the dialects Of
India.
