The following people have stopped
at the Washington during the past

and declared that in many respects it
excels any other hotel on the CONT

FIFTEEN REASINS WHY W
SHOULD STOP AT THE
WASHINGTON.

1st-It is the best hotel on the
Coast.
2d-It costs no more than poorer
hotels, as shown by rates below.
3d--New hotel, new furniture.
4th-Excellent service.
5th-The Washington, while Ti6-
in the center of the city, is on an eie-
walton of 200 feet, which lifts you
above the noise, dust and smoke of
the street hotels.
6th-The hotel is situated in the
center of Az acres of beautiful
grounds, with thousands of roses and
other fragrant flowers to beautify the
surroundings.
7th-Eight hundred feet of wide YER
andas surround the hotel, giving to
the guest opportunities for rest and
promenade not found elsewhere.
8th-The view from these spacious
verandas cannot be described. Noun
tains, lakes. the Sound and the city
itself form one magnificent panorama
not found anywhere else on earth.
9th-The hotel lobby, parlors, Turk
ish room, etc. are exquisite, and form
continuation of comfort and luxury
not often found in hotels.
10th-A Dutch grill has recently
been added, where service may be
had at all hours.
11th-The dining room cannot be
excelled. Breakfast and lunch are
served a la carte, at most reasonable
prices, and a table d hote dinner for
$1.00 is pronounced by all to be above
criticism.
12th-Rates-Ext reasonable
European plan
Room, without bath, $1.00 per day
and upward.
Room, with bath, $500 per day and

upward.
Bus service to and from all trains
and BEATS, % cents
Trunks, each way, 25 cents.
Carriage fare (private), so cents.
Special rates made to parties for
one month or more.
13th-Being above the street and
away from the noise, you will enjoy
a nights rest better at the Washing
ton than any other hotel in the city.
14th-Go to the Washington and il
you are not satisfied that it surpasses
all other hotels on the Pacific Coast
for excellent service and reasonable
prices, your bill will be nothing.
15th-Do not be deceived by believ-
ing that some other hotel in the city
is as good as the Washington, for such
is not the case. The Washington
stands alone as the most charming
and attractive hotel west of New
York.

HEARING BEGINS,
Taking of Dispositions in the
Santa Fe Case.
Formal Reports introduced as
Groundwork Today.

The taking of dispositions in the
suit brought a few days ago in Chau-
tauqua county against the Santa Fe
under the antitrust law began this
morning in the attorney generals Of
flee. z. r. Simon. who is justice
of the peace, is presiding.
Frank s. Monett, former attorney
general of Ohio, who is now employed
by the Kansas Oil Producers asso-
citation in its fight against Standard
Oil, is doing the heavy work for the
prosecution, but Attorney General
Coleman and G. D. Shuckers, county
attorney of Chautauqua, are present
as counsel.
The defense is represented by Rob-
ert Dunlap, general solicitor of the
Santa Fe, who is here from Chicago,
and Q. J. Wood, general attorney for
the Santa F'e.
]. G. Slonecker, who looks after
the Standards legal interests in Kan
sas, was present for a while. W. ].
Healy, auditor of freight receipts for
the Santa Fe, and C. S. GIeed, director
of the road, were summoned as wit
nesses.
The first witness this morning was
Cyrus Anderson, secretary of the state
board of railroad commissioners. He
was put on the stand to introduce
portions of the annual reports filed
by the Santa F'e and other railroads
with the state board The reports are
public property, but this is the method
necessary to introduce them as evil
dence in the case.

HOW 1T WORKS.
New Maximum Rate Law PIeases the
Oil Men.

How the new maximum freight rate
law, fixing the rates on oil. works IS
shown by a telegram received last
evening by Governor Hoch. It is as
follows.
governor E. w. Hoch, Topeka, Kan.
Humboldt, kan. March 6.-Ship-
ped first car of oil under maximum
freight law. Old rate. 1854; new
rate, $27.60; saving US on one car,
$50.74. Thanks to you and the leg1s-
lature of good old Kansas for break
ing the monopolistic bonds of the rail-
roads, and giving the oil producers an
opportunity to do business.
WEBSTER REFINING co..
That $5G.74 is all ''velvet''-Drofit to
the Webster refinery. There is no ex-
ira. cost coupled with it. This profit
will enable the Webster independent
refinery to do business.
According to Miss Tarbell's history
of the Standard Oil trust, in the east
ern fields it compelled the railroad
companies to charge its competitors
in the refining business a high freight
rate and then pay it a rebate on all
oil carried for such competitors, SO
that the Standard actually got a good
profit out of its competitors business.
If this was done in the Kansas field it
can readily be seen what a good thing
it was for the standard It is the pur-
pose of the suits which have been
brought against the standard and the
Santa Fe to find out if any such ar
rangement existed.
A question which arises in this con-
nection is how the railroad companies
can justify charging in the past three
times what is now the maximum rate
Another query which arises is, why
not establish a maximum rate on
grain? That is as much too nigh as
the rate on oil was.

SHORT $4,000.
That Amount of Government
Reserve Missing
From the Vaults of Cincinnati
National Bank.

Cincinnati. O., March THE German
National bank in this city is s55 600
short in its government reserve fund,
according to a story published here to-
day. That amount apparently has been
stolen from its special faults. $50, 600 IN
bills, $1,000 in gold. Officials say that
the robbery is one of the boidest and
most puzzling ever known IN this Sec
ton. On December IS. the reserve fund
was counted and found to be intact.
Four weeks ago the shortage was dis
covered and the most thorough investi-
cation has been carried on ever since
without results
The German National bank is one of
the strongest banks in this section with
a capital of $500, 900 and total resources
of nearly seven millions. President
Bohrer said the loss was comparatively
small and that it might be found later
to be matter of bookkeeping.

The Duke of Clarence, afterward
William ", once received a very
adroit aud humorous hint which he
took in very good part. He was Wis
iting Portsmouth and inspecting the
ships there when it happened that his
guide over the seventy tours" was an
aggrieved and battered lieutenant who
had waited for promotion many years
in vain. He seemed despised and for
gotten. AS this nan removed his hat
to salute royalty the duke observed
that he was bald and said jestingly:
Il see, my friend, that you have not
spared your hair in our country's
service"
why, your royal highness." was the
quick answer, its a wonder | have
any hair left, for so many young fell
lows have stepped over my head"
The duke laughed and made his in
spection of the feet, but in a few days
his Portsmouth guide received an ap-
pointment as captain.

TO0K OUT SECURITIES
TREASURER OF NEW YORK LIFE
REMOVED STOCKS FROM THE
coMPANY's VAULTS.

New York, Nov. 2S.-One of the most
interesting features ofthe life insurance
investigation developed only a few mo-
ments before adjourning for the day
Of the Armstrong committee when
Theodore +. Banta, cashier of the New
York Life Insurance company, testi-
ned that about the beginning of 1901,
Edmund d. Randolph, treasurer of the
company. opened the vaults of the com
pany. removed New York city stock
valued at 500, 900 and put a check on
the Central National bank for 500, 900
In Its place. Mr.. Banta said he helped
to open the vaults at the order of Mr..
Randolph and that he supposed Mr..
Randolph acted for the finance com
mittee. The stock was kept out for a
few days and was then returned and
the check withdrawn. The transac-
ton was not recorded on the books of
the company so far as Mr.. Banta knew.
The effect of the operation would be
that anyone having that stock would
have 100000 worth of taxable prop
erty at the end of the wear. Mr.. Banta
did not know who received the stock.
Mr.. Randolph is expected to be one
OF the witnesses before the commifee
this week.

WIPED OUT
IOWA FARMER ACCUSED OF MUIR
DERING HIS WIFE AND FIVE
CHILDREN.

Oelwein, Ia, Nov. 25.-William Nc.
Williams, a well-to-do farmer, has beer
arrested on a charge of numbering his
family. consisting of Mrs. McWilliams
and five children, ranging from one
and one-half to eighteen years in age
The bodies of Mrs. McWilliams and
her five children were found lying on
the floor of the farm home kitchen.
Apparently Mrs. McWilliams was
killed while preparing dinner, as food
was found partly cooked on the stove.
A dairyman who called at the farm for
milk found that she was killed with a
hammer, which crushed her skull. She
was also hacked with a knife.
1t is thought that after the woman
was murdered the children were called
into the house one by one from work
on the farm and killed in a similar
manner.
The baby when found wore a hood
and mittens and had in its hand a
piece of buttered bread. One blow of
the hammer had sufficed for it. The
child was found in its mothers arms.
A daughter of sixteen, 1t seems,
struggled for life, her hands being
lacerated, apparently by clutching the
blade of a knife.

The Mentone Man.

An almost perfect skeleton was found
In a cave at Mentone, France, March,
1872. 1t showed its owner to have been
a tall, well formed man, with an aver
age skull and a facial angle of eighty
hve degrees. The antiquity Of this skel.
eton, known as the Mentone man, is
u~ndoubted. His bones are associated
with those of the cave lion, cave bear
and other extinct animals. All the
bones were In place, surrounded by
flint implements and the remains of
animals which the man probably had
killed. Twenty-Five perforated teeth.
which may have formed a chaplet, lay
by his head. These bones, with the
skull found In a cave near
Engis, are the oldest specimens known
of human remains and go far to prove
that prehistoric races were well fur
nlshed with brain power.

A correspondent Of the London
Standard relates the following triple
coincidence, taken from an old manu-
script diary. dated 1912, In which a
relative quotes from an "old journal:"
I'm the year 1854, ON Dec. s, a boat on
the Menai (Menai strait, In north
Wales) crossing that strait. over which
q bridge has since been built. with
.eighty-one passengers, was upset, and
only n passenger, named Hugh VIII
liams, was saved. On the same date.
In the year 1856, was upset another
boat. containing about sixty passen-
gers. Of whom all persisted excepting
one. whose name was Hugh Williams.
On Aug. 5. 1890, a third boat met with
the same disaster. with twenty-five
passengers only. and all persisted with
the exception of one, whose name was
Hugh Williams"
