w as SllnglOD, u. - May 4.-As-
founding revelations regarding the
methods of the Standard Oil Com
pany and its railroad allies were
made today by President Roosevelt
10 bis special message to congress
in which be sent out the report of
Commissioner of Corporations Har-
ry A. Garfield. 10 the report or
ganized capital is relentlessly pillo-
rled. The work of independent in
vestigators during recent years is
completely overshadowed. The
"Muck Rakers' must now bow to
the fearless son of the martyred
preeident.
G lrfeld's report convicts the oil
trust of fagrant and persistent
violation of the law and accuses
Standard Oil officials of deliberate
Iy lying to conceal the transaction
of their company.
Garfield states that at the begin.
ming of the investigation started by
him last spring, trust officials stat
ed that the Standard Oil company
had not obtained and was not then
obtaining secret rebates, when it
wasreceivirg the rebat without ap-
parent fear OF prosecution.
Garfield proceeds to show that
the comwany habitually received
and and is still receiving secret re.
bates and cites case after case in
proof Of bis assertion. In every
section of the country the Standard
Oh company has profted by the
numerous and fagrant discrimina'
tions by railroads in behalf of the
Standard Oil and affiliated corpora
tions. Except for few large con.
Germs in California the Standard
has been the sole beneficiary of suct
discrimination.
In this connection the commits
sioner refers to the discriminatior
practiced by the Southern Paclh,
railroad, which, he says, SHOWED
favoritism in the allotment of carr
among shippers, creating one Of th'
principal grievances of California
oil producers. Garfield says:
"The investigation has shoW1
clearly one glaring defect of inter
state commerce law-namely, the
method of filing and publishing
tariffs. AS long as the state rate il
not forced to bs made public al
manner of devices to evade the pur
pose of thu law are possible. All
state rates used in connection with
interstate shipments should be flee
with the commission and a radica
change made in the direction of sim
! plifying the tariff.
The department of justice il
already planning steps toward th'
! prosecutions based on Garfeld's re
port.

 Despite the fact that the bullet fired into his brain by his wife Mrs. R. B.. BaIlentine was calculated to produce instant death. the young man finger ed more than eight hours. although unconscious during that period.
 With the exception of Mrs. Ballen- tine, who now occupies q cell at the police prison. there is but one person who. perhaps. may be able at the pre- liminary hearing. to give any light on the incident leading to tragedy other than those given in Sunday mornings 8 special and which was the substance of Mrs Ballentine's statement
 This person is Ellis Pollard, young man, who occupied room at the Bal lentine home. He will not talk until | the preliminary hearing.
 Mrs. Ballentine, who did not attend the funeral, because of her physical condition, due to collapse since learn ing of her husbands death, though arrangements had been made to allow her to attend had she desired to do so. will meet all expenses of the funeral of her husband. She informed Chief Rondeau of the police department. that she carried a small policy on her hus- bands life, because of his hazardous vocation-that of a fruit messenger and this she intended using for the purpose of giving his remains decent interment.
 Mrs. Ballentine spent last night as comfortably as possible in her cell, when she was attended by her sister, Miss Buchanan. The preliminary hearing will be had Wednesday and Mrs. Ballentine will has secured Mo- Alpine and Robinson in her defense.

WATCH ENGINEERS

 OF CORPS.
Central City Will Oner Inducements 10 Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic Railroad to Pass Through
 Dallas Capital.
Advertiser Bureau,

AuVeTllSer buTcau,
 Selma, Nov. 5.
 Considerable interest is still being taken by Selmians in the working of ths Corps of civil engineers who art supposed to be surveying the route of the Atlanta. Birmingham and Atlantic Railroad from Birmingham on to New Orleans.
 The engineers were around Selma for several days last week. but towards the end of the week they left for West Dallas and near Hamburg Perry County. pitched their camp.
 It Is presumed that the two corps working between this city and Talla- dega, will reach the main camp which has been located near here this week. When the different parties of engineers come together. 1t is understood that the work of surveying the line on to New Orleans will then be taken up and completed as rapidly as possible.
 Everyone seems to be of tn eopinon that the building of the Atlanta. Bir- mingham and Atlantic line through this city and section of the State VII bring forth great results. It would also be d great thing for the system. as the line would pass through sec ton of Alabama and Mississippi which Is practically untouched by railroa and which Is rich in timber. mineral and agriculture.
 There is but little doubt that when the survey has been completed and the aurstion of extending the line fro;" Birmingham to New Orleans Is taken up hv thr owners of tn eroad. that il will be decided to built the line on to the Crescent City. If this move Is de- cided upon there is also but little doub. but that the ro ad will touch Selma Selma Is anxious for every new rall- road that she can get. and at the prop CT time it is more than likely that the Commercial and Industrial Associatlo1 I wil make some inducements to thr Ioad to build by this city.
 In the meantime the engineers. en- campcd in West Dallas, arc making thcmselvrs comfortable. From their present camp it is understood that they will work in d southerly direction with New Orleans as their objective point.
