THE SHREWD ARTIST
AGAIN INDICTED BY FEDERAL
 GRAND JURY AT CHICAGO.
Standard Oil Sly Bird, But Law Still Trying to Put Salt on
 Its Tail

Chicago.-An indictment charging the Standard Oil Company with re- ceiving rebates in the form of non- payment of storage charges to certain railroad companies has been returned by the federal grand jury before Judge $. II. Bethea. The Standard Oil Com. pany Is the only defendant, no officials of the company. no railroad company or officials of railroad companies being named The bond of the defendant was fixed by Judge Bethea at s25 ,000.
 This is the case investigated by the grand jury in Cleveland. O.. where it was found that the grand jury had no Jurisdiction. The testimony taken there was transferred to Chicago. IL was on this testimony and evidence that the indictment was returned SO quickly. The grand jury imediately resumed it's session to take LID the charge that the Standard Oil Company was given some rebate by railroads.
 The indictment contains 19 counts, each count constituting a separate charge. The true bills come under the Eikins law, which provides fine of from $1,o00 to s2000 for each vio- lation Under this indictment. should the government procure conviction on the trial of the issues, fine of S5S0,0o0 as maximum under the FL kins law may be assessed.
 The indictment alleges that by n system of granting the Standard Oil Company certain concessions. the oil company benefited to the extent of SS,500.72 during period of time from August, 1903, to February. 1905. The indictment, as explained by the gov government authorities, means that in 10 instances consignments of oil for the Standard Oil Company were stored by the Lake Shore and Miohi- gan Southern and that the Lake Shore | received no payment of cents per 1 ton per day from the oil company for such storage, but that it's competitors were compelled to pay this amount. This is equivalent to granting a con cessiop, it Is charged, the non-pay- ment of the storage charges being practically rebate in favor of the Standard Oil Company. Each count sets up a discrimination of from $500 to $500 month In favor of the Stand. ard Oil Company.
 It will be necessary for officials of the Standard Oil Company to appear in court and present bond of $25, 900 for the corporation
 By the order of Judge Bethea, | second Grand Jury was drawn and summoned to appear next week, when this body will investigate the meth ods of the Standard oil Company, from where the first inquisitorial body was compelled to leave off. The second jury will begin it's investigation with March, 1907.

FORREST CITY ARK. FRIDAY AFTERNOON AUGUST TO- 1eo6
FLOOD DAMAGE IN TEXAS
COLORADO RIVER MANY MILES
 WIDE IN SOUTHERN TEXAS.
TWO Hundred Miles of Railway Track Washed out-Heavy Loss
 of Live Stock.

Fort Worth. Tex-Five people are known to have been drowned. hundreds were rendered homeless. and s500,0o0 worth of property was destroyed as the result of a flood in south Texas, when the Colorado river was forced out of it's banks by heavy rains
 It is believed that the worst dis. aSter since the Galveston flood has wis., ited Texas. Relief trains are cut off, telegraph and telephone wires are down and the fate of the inhabitants of several isolated towns is unknown.
 The rush of water came without warning, and inhabitants at San An gelo and Ballingcr were forced to flee for safety in their night clothes. An entire family at Ballinger named Cook wore drowned as they attempted to leave their home on an improyised raft which struck an obstruction.
 The Colorado is from four to six miles wide in places and the tribu- taries south are out of their banks. Two thousand cattle were killed. The Santa Fe track bridges were washed out, and traffic is at standstill. Persons made homeless sought refuge in churches. Provisions and clothes were rushed to the scene of the dis. aster
 Twelve inches of rain fell all over south Texas. causing all rivers to overflow their banks Relief trains were rushed out, but were unable to reach their destination. Rescue par ties in boats are going from house to house, taking people from second sto- ries and carrying the dead to morgues.
 Heartrending scenes were witnessed in towns where lost children were hunting parents. It is estimated that 200 miles of track were washed out.

VARIOUS REVOLUTIONARY BOD. IFS IN RUSSIA MAKE AN Ap.
 PEAL TO THE NATION.
STRIKE IS A FAILURE
An enthusiastic Acceptance of the Or. der to Strike Is No Where Re. corded-The Railroad Men
 Could Save the Day.

St. Petersburg-The former depu ties composing the social democratic and labor parties, Polish and Jewish committees, and various revolutionary bodies, have issued the following joint manifesto:
 ITO the Whole Nation-Citizens A fortnight has elapsed since the gov. ernment dissolved the lower house of parliament. It laughed at the nation al representation, and set the whole people at defiance. Russia has re. eeiyed this new crime of the auto cratic power in sullen silence. The government rejoiced at this victory. but the thunder of guns at Sveaborg and Cronstadt proved this rejoicing to be premature. The army and navy have reached the standard of insurrec- ton against the oppressors of the peo- pie. The roar of the guns at Syea. borg and Cronstad has given the sig. nal Tor new pan-Russian attack on the autocracy. A new and decisive SNa NoSiN tSA i2tAu anu iiDSlty Has De- gun. The lessons of the past will not have been in vain. The imperial manifesto of October 30 proved de. ceitful and a state douma is without authority and uable to satisfy a single national need.
 The people see now they can hope and expect nothing as long as the state power is in the hands of it's enemies. The object is not an unau. thoritative parliament, but a constltu. tional assembly, with full powers elect. ed by universal, equal, direct and SC. cret suffrage. The people must apply themselves. Citizens all, to whom freedom is dear, we call on you for a decisive struggle against the govern. ment of the emperor, for a national government, and for land and liberty. We call on you for general strike to cast down the imperial government and the authorities depending thereon
 Long live the general strike and the decisive struggle for national pow. CT"

 cret Rebates.

 With but there exceptions the men SuHlUlON6u TOT lHlS Jury SeTSlct COlue from small towns In the northern dis trict of Illinois, and secret service men have been busy learning their affilia- tions. not only with the Standard Oil but with the various railroads which are implicated.
 Much time will be spent and many witnesses examined with reference to the secret deal known as the Grand Junction combination" and the dis. criminatory rate to East St. Louis.
 Grand Junction Combination"
 The Grand Junction combination bound the railroad to ship oil for the Standard from Whiting. Ind, to Grand Junction, 40 miles east of Memphis Tenn, for so low rate that other oil companies could not compete in the south. A similar agreement was made for East St. Louis, and by it the Waters-Pierce Co, an arm of the Standard dominated oil matters from the Mississippi river to the Pacific coast.
