Locally, there is still some trouble
with the inspectors, Ollie SYain has
offered his resignation in the Fourth

MORE TESTS
OF LANSING OIL
OIL COMPANY Is SUFFERING
HEAVY PENALTY BY REASON
OF OFFICIALS ACTION.

Some more tests are being made by
Engineer Rowland of the Public Works
Department, of the oil aboard the
steamer Lansing. New samples We're
taken from the vessel yesterday, some
from the surface of her big tank and
others from the bottom, and the tests
are under way now. Tests yesterday
indicated a rise in the flash figure, but
1t was till considerably below the legal
figure of 100.
The new tests will be completed to-
day In the meantime the steamer is
still prevented from discharging her
cargo, and the authorities insist. that
it shall not be discharged until it
meets the terms of the law. THE trou-
BILE is an old one" said Attorney Gen
eral Peters. "The company has come
here before with oil that was not with
in the requirements. Now when they
land here with a cargo like this, it is
time to lay down the law.
"As to statements that the action of
the authorities is in the nature of a
punishment of the company, l have no
denial to make. We are going to car
ry out the law and l admit it is a pun
ishment."
The punishment is not a light one
either. The cost to the company, CT
the delay of the steamer, is estimated
at something like $500 per day,

coal mining regions, the freight charges
on coal from New York to Newport, r.
l., by water, We're raised so cents per
ton Friday. Thus far there has been
no rise in the local retail price.
President Roosevelt is non-committal
as to what action if any he will take
regarding the coal strike. 1t is known,
however, that his replies to the tele-
grams received from indianapolis will
be to the effect that he has the whole
matter under consideration and it may
be some days yet before he decides
what, if anything that can be done.
Eight thousand miners in the employ
of the keystone Coal & Coke Co., and
the Jameston Coal & Coke Co., near
Greensburg, Pa, have decided to con-
tinue work regardless of the action of

In compliance with the order of the
