New York, April 10.-1n the course
OF his sermon at Plymouth church,
Brooklyn, Sunday, Rev. Newell Dwight
Hills referred to the gift Of $1,000 0
made by John d. Rockefeller to the
American board of foreign missions,
and to Mr.. Rockefeller's son. He said
in part:
"The saddest words that have been
written in this generation were spoken
before Brown university by a young
man who is to inherit one of the great
est fortunes in this country. They
were spoken in defense of the trusts.
Listen to them: The American beauty
rose can be produced in all its splendor
only by sacrificing the early buds hat
grow up around it.
1.-THE rose has one thousand buds,
n in order to produce the American
beauty the gardener goes around 1t
with a knife and ships G99, in order
that all the strength and beauty may
be forced into one blossom. In his
economic argument this young man
brutally tells the working classes that
999 small business men must be
snuffed out of existence in order that
his American beauty, the trust, may be
produced. Listen to Christ: Let the
strong bear the burdens of the weak
and again, give, and it shall be given
unto you

are the most heartbreaking things in
literature to those who know what is

Judge Mack refused to allow this to be

two allegations:
First, that the company has charged
$50 and sl75 a year for the use of
telephones when its franchise fixes the
maximum charge at $l25; second, that
the company has charged toll rates on
telephone calls between points lying

a reduced acreage is expected, and at

TO DISCOURAGE ELOPEMENT.
Indiana Couples Who Marry In An.

ricd When Return Home.

Laporte, Ind, April l0.-tnder the
new marriage law of this state, which
will become operative in a few days,
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Joseph,
Mich, will cease to be favorite Meccas
for Indiana clipping couples. The new
law, which Gov. Hanley declares shall
be rigidly enforced, provides that when
marriage is contracted by Indiana
couples in another state, it will be de-
clared null and void upon the return
of the couple. A bona iide residence in
the state where the marriage is per-
formed must be proved to establish its
validity. 1t is believed the enforce
ment of this law will abate the elop-
ing evil and keep at home the hundreds
of couples who yearly leave the state

TO COMPETE WITH STANDARD
Thirty Independent OIL Companies
to Form u Company to Pips
and RENE OIL.

ChauLte, Kas., April 8.-RepresentA-
tives Of 80 Independent oil companies
which control three-fourths of the oil
production of Kansas, met here, FRI
day. and decided to form a company
representing $1,000, 900 Of invested cap.
ital, to build a fuel oil pipe line from
the Kansas oil field to Kansas City,
and to construct a refinery and storage
tank in that city.
The company to be formed will be
the only n which will compete with
the Standard Oil Co. for the markets
Of the middle west. The producers de-
cided that a consolidation of all their
interests is the only salvation of the
independent operators in Kansas. Two
months ago the producers appointed q
committee to investigate the fuel Gil
market at Kansas City and the cost of
a pipe line to that point. The reports
of this committee influenced the pro-
ducers to form a company and COM
mence the construction of a pipe line
and refinery at once. The Standard
Oil Co., it is said, had a force of men
here watching the proceedings of the
independent producers. The Standard
forces announced that the presence Of
these people vas merely a coincidence.
There were present at the meeting rep
resentatives Of companies operating in
the Indian territory, but only Kansas
companies will be represented in the
company to be organized.
1t is believed that the organization
of the Independent operators into a
company will insure a market for the
Kansas producers independent of the
Standard Oil Co.

She DENIES THE SHOOTING
Miss Grace Vest Says She Didn't
Shoot Paul Druckemiller.
The Murdr red Man, in His
AHte-Mortcm statement, Charged
Her with the Deed.

st. Joseph, Mo-, April 7.-Despite
Paul +. DruCkemiller's ante-mortem
statement that Miss Grace Vest shot
him, the young woman declares the
tragedy as much a mystery to her as
to anyone.
Her story is that Druckemiller, who
was chief clerk in the bureau of animal
Industry, and roomed at Miss Vests
house, was alone, sc far as she knows,
in his room at the time of the shoot
ing. She says she heard a shot and,
rushing to The room. found DIuckemil-
Ter writhing On the door.
He was wounded in the side, and so
far back that physicians say it would
have been impossible for him to have
fired the shot himself.
Police Sergeant Kelley, the first Of
!icer to reach the dying mans side,
found a bottle of strychnine nea him.
Miss Vest explains that Druckemiller
asked for the poison TO end his suffer-
ing. The police express the opinion
that Miss Vest tried TO administer 1t
after failing to kill the young mar
with a revolver.
Druckemiller's account was that
Miss Vest shot him because he refused
to leave his wife and clope with her.
Letters which passed between Drucke,
miller and the woman indicate that
such a request was made.
