FURTHER TESTIMONY
Is Heard by Interstate Commerce
Commission About Oil Trade.

Washington, July 12.-The Interstate
Comemrce Commission, today, heard
further testimony in its investigation
of the oil industry and practices of tie
alleged monopoly.
The first witness was George l.. Peck,
general manager of the Pennsylvania
lines west of Pittsburg, who was cX-
amined concerning the contract the
road had with the Galena Oil Co, of
Franklin, Pa, for the fabrication Of
rolling stock. He explained the terms
of the contract and the price paid for
oil.
1t was stated by Commissioner
Prouty that the Oregon Short Line,
the Northern Pacific, the Wisconsin
Central, and the Chicago, Milwaukee
and St Paul Railroads had contracts
with the Galena Oil Co. for lubricating
oil to be furnished at a stipulated fig
ure. which shall be as low as the lowest
market price. BY the testimony of Mr..
Peck, it was shown that the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad by its contract, rcceiv-
ed oil at a less figure than has been
paid by other roads and therefore the
contracting roads named have had
opened for them an opportunity for
recovery of the price paid in excess of
the cost to the Pennsylvania lines.
The proceedings were adjourned at the
conclusion of Mr.. Peck's testimony.
