Just after the close of the civil war
the business OF the Standard had e1

products. William came to New York
and founded the firm OF Rockefeller
Bros. to handle the output OF the Cleve-
land refineries. for by that time these
were. too, controlled by the men who
started the Standard. In 1870, the part

MAYOR MCCLELLAN
SIGNS 80-CENT GAS BILL

NEW YORK, March A.-Mayor Nc
Clellan yesterday afternoon formally
approved the SO-cent gas bill. He sent
il back with the following memorandum
1.-The enactment of this measure will,
in nv judgment. serve as protection
to the public against excessive charges
by the corporations engaged in furnish
ing Illuminating gas in the city OF New
York.
Those who supply Illuminating gas
are public utility corporations They are
entitled, therefore, to a reasonable profit
on the cost OF production and distribu-
ton OF the commodity they serve. If the
legislative rate is sufficient 10 produce
such profit, they have no right TO COM
plain.
1T is clearly within The power Of the
Legislature in such cases 10 fix rate
in excess OF which the companies may
not charge the public, provided that It
be not unjust to the companies"

NAVAL COMMITTEE
LIKES BIG SHIPS
Plan Yankee Dreadnaught
With Huge GuIs.

Members OF the House Committee on
Naval Affairs are mauifesting dispo-
sition TO favor the big battIeship with
the big gun. In the report of the com
mittee, which is expected within the
next three weeks. il is now thought
provision Will be made for two Dread
naughts.
The plan that has the present indorse-
ment of majority Of the committee is
TO authorize a new battleshIp OF the
Drea dnaught type and TO provide for In
creasing the displacement to 1900 tons
OF one of the two battIeships already au-
thorizeG, either the South Carolina or
the Michigan.
II is possible the committee will favor
a displacement Of 1880 tons. This 10
the displacement of the great Dread
naugbt, recently launched by Great
Britain, and II is the size recommended
by Admiral Dewey In his hearing before
the Naval Affairs Committee this week
II Is expected that IL the COMMITTEES
reports IN favor of authorizing one or
more big battleships, a bitter hight viii
be precipitated, both in House and Sen
ate IL Is not certain as yet what sum
would be necessary for a veSsal OF the
Dreadnaught type. Great Britain is
building the Dreadnaught az q cost OF
81 600. but II is thought the cost OF
such vessel on this side of the Allan
tic would be considerably more.
One OF the most serious difficulties OF
the situation confronting the House
Naval Affairs Committee is the possible
Inability Of the constructors OF the
Navy Department TO plan a war vessel
on the new lines. The constructors
have grave doubts about being able to
plan suitable turrets for A vessel OF the.
Dreadnsught pattern and are showing
some unw1llingness to attempt the job.
