ALL STRIKE DANGER

Flremen Confer With Officials Of
Road and a Satisfactory Com.
promise Is Reached.

Hartford, Conn.,. March 3.-The
committee of fremen of the New York
New Haven & Hartford railroad. who
returned from New York at o'clock
this morning after having held con-
ference with the officials of the road
and the grand officers of the brother
hood stated that all danger of strike
on the line had been averted and that
a compromise again had been reached
which was satisfactory to all concern
ed.
The committee stated that they
would prepare a statement that would
be made public this morning but fur
ther than that they declined to talk.
1t is certain that both sides made
concessions and that the parties to
the conferences parted In very pleas
ant frame of mind. There Is great re-
joicing among the firemen here this
morning as they had been ,apprised
that the road had prepared to fill their
places and as the engineers would not
stand by them they felt that they
could not win If they were compelled
to strike to enforce their demands.

THE RUSSIAN army ROUTED
MORE RIOTS THAN
EVER IN WARSAW
MARTIAL LAW ADDS TO FURY OF
THE PoPuLAcE.
Military Powerless to Control the
Rioters-Reports Of a General
Uprising.

Warsaw, March 3.-The placing of
Poland under martial law has only
had the effect of increasing the fury
of the populace ana yesterday there
were even more riote reported than at
any time since the present trouble be-
gan. Will force of soldiers and po-
lice were being mustered at the chief
police station in the Muranoff district
some one threw bomb. loaded with
scrap metal and nails. through win
dow, it striking in the middle Of the
drill hall. There was a sudden rush
for the doors and windows by the
guardians Of the peace, but luckily
the grenade failed to explode and no
one was hurt. 1t was of u most dead
ly character and is believed to have
been one of those recently smuggled
over the frontier The police arrested
two men charged with having thrown
the explosive.
From numerous points come reports
of renewed disturbances yesterday and
the military seem absolutely unable
to control the rioters. Wholesale ar
rests are being made but for every
person taken into custody another
seems to take his place. All that the
peasants and workingmen need is a
leader and should the man of the
hour" put in an appearance the Rus
sian troops might be driven out Of
the land.
1t is reported and generally credited
in certain quarters that plans have
been made by the Polish revolutionary
society for general uprising in the
near future and when the signal is
given a bloody conflict is certain.

ney general, such action will be taken

Certainly. we shall defend our
selves"
ALLEGATION MADE.
by Attorney General Coleman to oust
the Standard OIL Co., from Kansas
and for the appointment of receiver
for its property was filed Tuesday but
1t was not made public at once because
the attorney general wanted it to re-
main a secret so that the sheriff of
Wyandotte county could serve the
summons on the company's agency in
Kansas City, Kansas. II was at first
reported that the suit was directed
against the Prairie Oil e Gas Co.,
which is the operating auxiliary of the
Standard in Kansas, but the suit really
is directed against the parent organ
ization.
The allegations of the petition are
that the Standard Oil Co. is a foreign
corporation, and is doing business in
Kansas without any authority. right or
tit1n from thu nh a a,ta,.
that the company has failed to furnish

to inform the charter. board of the
nature and character of its business;
has failed to give the name and ad-
dresses of any OF its officers, directors
or stockholders; has failed to furnish
the charter board with q detailed
statement of its assets and liabilities:
had failed to furnish the board with
any information of its solvency; has

of such condition; has paid no ap-
plication fee as required by law; has
failed to file In the Office of secretary
of state any written consent that

against 1t in the proper court Of any

The attorney general says that the
company has refused and neglected
to pay this sum. The attorney general
also alleged, that the company, did,
on. or about the first of July. 1904 and
on many days prior and subsequent
thereto, enter into and become party
to trust agreements in violation of the
antitrust law of the state, the said
agreement being with an association
of railroad corporations and boards OF
directors of competing railroads. Here
the petition sets out the. names of all
the railroad companies doing business
in Kansas and all the tank line and
pipe line companies, and says that by
means of trans-continental freight
bureau, trans-Missouri freight bureau,
the Western trunk line committee and
the Southwestern tank line committee,
the trust has become firmly fixed and
that the company is a member of all
these associations.
1t is charged also that the defendant
company has, through an agreement
with the Prairie OIL and Gas Co.. q
corporation of the state of Kansas,
fixed certain standards and figures fof
the sale and transportation Of pro-
ducts of petroleum by which their
price is absolutely controlled by the
defendant company. The petition sets
out that all these agreements and
compacts are unlawful and hurtful to
the commerce of the state. and pre-
clude a free and unrestricted competi-
tion among the companies which are
named in the petition In the sale, man.
ufacture and transportation of oil pro-
ducts. Then follows the proyer of ous-
ter.

other side of the building. On going
back to the house she discovered the

|NDEPENDEN N IS
Will Invest Over a Million
Dollars in Kan
SaS.
TO FIGHT STANDARD

Topeka, Kansas. March 2,-As the
result of the laws passed for the pro-
lection of the oil business it is esti-
mated that over a million dollars will
be invested in Independent refneries
and pipe lines in Kansas within the
next few months. There are now
more than dozen propositions before
the various towns in the oil belt.
Chauute is negotiating for four refin-
cries, one from syndicate of New
Workers which desires to put in a
plant with daily capacity of 1900
barrels; one from Beaumont concern
for refinery with a capacity Of 500
barrels; one from the National Re
fining Co., Of Bakersfield, Cal. and
Chicago, H.. with daily output of
1900 barrels: and another from To-
cal syndicate for a 500 barrel plant.
Kansas City capital will erect
thousand barrel refinery at Niotazo.
This also involves the construction of
a branch pipe line to Peru.
The state refinery at Peru will have
a daily capacity of 1000 barrels and
this will also require the building of
pipe line.
At Paola. the money has been rails
ed and material ordered for the erec-
tion of 500 barrel refinery.
There is also proposition at Inde-
pendence for refinery with capac-
ity of 1900 barrels day.
In addition to these refinery plans,
there is the Independent pipe line
which the Corn Planter refinery peo-
pie will build to st. Louis, which will
involve an investment of over a mil
lion and half dollars.
This means competition with the
Standard Oil Co. for nearly all of the
OH produced in Kansas.
