 OF OHIO

Deputy Marshal Dispatched Post Haste
 to Office of M. s. Villas, Treasurer and
 AuditOr-UnabIe to Find Him--Be-
 lief that He is Being Kept Under
 COyer-Sensationa Charge of Under-
 9eller.
 Cleveland, July 1o.-The testimony produced to-day before the United States grand jury which is investigat- ing alleged violations of interstate corn- merce and anti-rebate laws, with par ticular reference to the Standard Oil company, was of such a nature that District Attorney Sullivan caused sev- eral additional subpoenas to be issued later in the day for weu-knoWn Stand- ard Oil officials. One was issued for M. s. Villas, treasurer and auditor of the Standard Oil company of Ohio. A deputy marshal was dispatched post haste to the office of Mr. Villas, but he was not found, the officer reporting that he believed that an attempt was being made to keep him under cover.
 Another subpoena will be issued to- morrow for F. B. Squire, yice-president of the Standard Oil company of Ohio.
 Among other things declared to have been brought out by the testimony to- day is a sensational charge of under billing. It is said the jury was inform ed that branch of the New York Gen. tral lines had caused hundreds of cars of the Standard Oil company to be bill- ed as containing only about half the amount with which they were really loaded.
 According to reports from the jury room, the government has so far been unable to substantiate the charge that the Standard Oil company was receiv- ing storage charge rebates on oil ship ned from Cleveland to Chicago.

MEETING AT TAMBoV.
Commanding officer of Cavalry Meets
 Death an Fight


 Tambov Central Russia, Sunday, July 8, midnight (held up in transmission). .-- A mutiny, followed by serious fighting, has broken out among the troops form ing the garrison here, due to an attempt of the military authorities to arrest and disarm the Seventh Reserve cavalry, who struck" presenting q series of po- litical and service demands, Taking advantage of 2 great religious process sion to-day, the authorities sent the regiment to escort the processionists and preserve order, and attempted, in the absence of the bulk of the regiment, to arrest the men remaining in barracks and stationed at the railway station. The regiment, on hearing of this action, left the procession and galloped to the rescue of their comrades, firing as they rode. They cut their way through oth- CT troops to the barracks, where they barricaded themselves and beat off re- peated attacks of the loyal troops. Shots could still be heard at midnight. The detachment of the Seventh at the railway station cut the telegraph and semaphore wires and is holding out there. An officer of the railroad corps and the commanding officer and a ser geant of the Seventh cavalry are re- ported to have been killed, while many were wounded.

GOVERNOR AT CAMP COLE
ARRIVED LATE YESTERDAY AF-
 TERNOON AT NIANTTG

Another Mimic Battle Last Night--sec-
 Ond Moved Out From Camp to Attack
 the Third--SIajor TiIson Credited
 With Capturing Gun After Theo-
 retically Sacrificing Most of One of
 His Companies,
 Camp Cole, Mantle, July 1O,-A thun- der storm breaking while the Second infantry was mounting guard and the Third infantry hiking to Paine's farm, seven mles away, added spice to the experience of the guardsmen in camp this afternoon. The rain was not welcome, as most of the men were tired out after their lively experience of last night and this morning in the mimic battle on the hills overlooking the camp, and wanted to take life easy, as another strenuous night was ahead. The shower was so heavy that the regi- mental ceremony had to be shortened and the soldiers scurried to cover. Late in the afternoon Governor Roberts ar rived in camp.
 Tonight the Third VIII take its turn at bivouacing in the open. It left camp at 3 o'clock, with Major Bucklee in command of the advance guard. The prospects for good night were poor. The Machine Gun battery went with the Third. Colonel Geddes at midnight will move his force out for the attack, and his dispositions are expected to be very good.
 Many interesting experiences are re- lated of the morning fight and that of Major Tilson's capture of a field gun is considered to be one of the best. The major was leading the main force on the attack and had tried Colonel Fitch's center. A field gun commanded q road, and down this c company of Major Norton's support, had gone pell-mell, with probably very serious results. Major Tilson, having his eye on the gun and a company of infantry supporting, sent Companies c and F down paral- Tel wood road, while A company was deployed to the south. M company, of Torrington, went out to protect the flank. The field gun had been trained to the north of Major Tilson's position. Upon making junction of F, and M companies the order was given to carry a bridge and rush the battery. This was done with a cheer and the battery men hitched up to save the gun and be- came tangled up with the supports. The retreat became rout, as the browns swept up to a stone wall and Major Tilson claimed victory. But the gunners rallied by their officers, made a stand and opened fire. Theo- retically, the battery had been wiped out. although the Second had lost most of M company. The charge of F and c companies, of New Haven, was excit~ ing, and for a few minutes it nearly be- came a personal encounter,
 The general impression is that the de- fense of Colonel Fitch was impregnable on the left, was weak in the center, but had drawn fight on the right, al- though Captain Alling, of the browns, reached a fair position against consid- erable odds
 The battle was discussed and argued among both officers and men during the afternoon.

 My attention is called" he says, to a document just issued by you in aid of the campaign for your own election, and that of your associates, to whom you owe your office It is in the guise of a letter addressed to the policy l holders, under the date of the 2d in- stant, which you have had printed and just given out for publication, and which I understand you are about to mall to the policyholders, whose names appear on the lists you have prepared at the expense of the company but which you still persist in withholding from the committee represented by me while using them for your own pur- poses.
 We take issue with you as to every material fact contained in that docu- ment."
 MT. Untermeyer further says that 1t will cost upward of $15,OO0 of the 1 policyholders' money to place this misleading statement in their hands, unless you propose personally to defray the cost.
 T beg again to protest to you and through you to your board of directors against this continued waste of the poll icyholders' money, and to your persist ent efforts to nislead them as to the true state of facts with respect to their property, using their funds to accom- plish the deception and entrench your self in office.
 "A copy of this protest Is being for warded to the superintendent of insur- l -.1 Lf- | he forbid this latest form of the di- version of the assets
 The letter then goes on to a detailed denial of the statements made in the address to the policyholders.

PROTEST COMMITTEE MEETS.
Asks Business Organizations to Discuss
 Insurance Rate Increase.


 The special committee recently ap- nointed by the fire commissioners to confer with ex-Mayor Hendrick about the proposed increase in insurance rates in this city, held 8 long and earn est session last evening. The commit dee is composed of President Cunning ham. Chief Ranches and Commis- sioner Pearce, and they went ovcer every detail of the question very thoroughly.
 The decision reached was that the increase would be a decided injustice and that conditions in this city war rant a decrease rather than an in- crease of rates.
 The department has complied with every recommendation of the Insurance anspeetor. New and large hose has been installed in the various houses, A greater number of hydrants have been set, twenty-eight new men have been added to the fire fighting force, two new houses built and equipped with modern apparatus and eight new horses purchased. No city of New Havens size in New England or the United States can boast such a splendid fire department and in view of these facts the committee is ready with a most emphatic protest against any increase.
 The insurance companies offer the excuse that the losses from the San Francisco disaster compel the raise and the committee replies that there is no reason why New Haven should suffer for San Franeisco's misfortune.
 The committee voted last night to snvfte the chanper of commerce and the business mems association to dis cusg the question. It is probable that these bodies will enter protests.
