Followers of a Sect Prepared for
Chaos in April.
Decatur, Ind, March 9.--Waiting for
the world to come to an end, and adj
vocating the creed Of their sect, sever
al families under the leadership Of
William Whittredge, formerly Of Elgin,
O., are preparing for the millennium
which they say will be here in April.
The little band has no name, but
its members apparently are sincere in
their belief. William Whittredge and
his followers came here quietly several
weeks ago, they attracted little atten-
ton, but it was noticed that the entire
band of three families was housed in
Fone dwelling. Then the people of the
neighborhood began to wonder. 1t was
made known Tuesday that the stran-
gers were simply waiting for the world
to come to an end. and tracts were
scattered over the city warning resi-
dents that the end is expected in April.
The followers Of Whittredge in
preaching their doctrine point to reve-
lations, and on the tracts which they
distribute are printed quotations from
the Bible. The members Of the band
are all intelligent and well inform-
ed.

Blow Given to Kansas Oil.

Independence, Kas., March 9. - The
Prairie Oil and Gas Company, the
Kansas branch of the Standard Oil
Company, yesterday issued an order to
the effect that hereafter no Kansas oil
testing below 80 degrees gravity will
be bought by the company. This af-
fects nearly .two-thirds of the Kansas
product. Yesterdays order is charac-
terized as the hardest blow yet struck
by the Prairie company at the Kan
sas Oil producers, as it means that
practically no oil will be taken by this
concern in Kansas outside of the bot
tom independence field, Neodosha, Ty-
TO and Chautauqua counties. This
will, it is believed, not affect the dis
trict 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 80 degrees grav-
ity is undesirable 1t has no value for
refining purposes and it is impossible
to find market for fuel"
The gravity of Kansas oil is 20 to
"a degrees. The average is %.

Oil Inquiry In Kansas Develops
What is Believed to Be
System of Rebates
ROAD PAID THE STANDARD OIL
of Santa Fe's Accounts
Show s1,1es, s52 Mas Paid to Ship
pers During Year Ending juno 80,
1so2-standard Oil Thought to Have
Received the Larger Share.

Topeka, Kas., March 9.-During the
year ending June 80 1902, the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Re railroad company
paid back to the shippers the sum of
cheers to be collected by Attorney
General Coleman will show that the
greater part of this amount was paid
to the Standard Oil company and other
monopolies and was in reality rebates
in violation Of the state law.
This fact was developed m the ex-
animation of w. j. Healy, freight audi
tor OF the Santa lie yesterday before
the attorney general, who is taking de-
positions in the case he Instituted In
Chautauqua county, to ascertain
whether the Santa Fe was violating
the antitrust law Of Kansas.
Mr.. Healy says that this amount
constitutes the total overcharges made
for the year and that he cannot give
the names Of the shippers to Wnom
payments were made without referring
to the original vouchers.
Healy said that it would take three
Of four months to get the vouchers on
the advice of r. w. Dunlap, general at
torney for the Santa Fee, Mr.. Healy
temporarily declined to consent to an
examination of his vouchers and re-
cords At conference of Santa Fe
officials soon to be held 1t will be de-
cided whether to allow the state to ex-
anime the compaa1y's books.
1t is the theory of the state that
these overcharges in reality are re-
bates, and that lLn examination OF the
vouchers will Show that the monopolies
have profited more than any other.
c. s. Gleed, member of the Santa
Fe directorate, was also examined. He
!, said he had little personal knowledge
Of the matters In controversy. The
only important fact developed from
his examination Is that the trans
continental freight bureau, and the
transmissouri freight bureau. and the
western rtunk line committee are
organizations composed Of the heads
Of the executive. departments of the
various railroad companies and that
these organizations, in effect, fix
freight rates in their territory.
The attorney general will make an
effort to have all the printed matter
obtainable giving the rates as fixed by
| these organizations, brought before the
court.

Ever since early last fall the country

sold off, not being needed to follow

the excess of pennies each night for a
long time and she had kept them in a
soap box, not spending or counting
them. A few days ago she conceived
the idea Of getting interest on the mon
ey, and went to bank to see if the
pennies would be received. She was
told to wrap in packages Of twenty five
and bring them down. She spent more
than a day making up the packages
and then carried the pennies to the
teller on dray, the mass weighing
over seventy pounds.
