Friends of the missing man will COM

boat company to get more definite infor-
nation concerning his movements about
the boat before they make an effort to
have search made for the body.
T. they find that he was seen upon the
boat after the wharf at Old Point was
left and that he was not upon it when the
l&rGing was made in Baltimore, then thay
will give credence TO the suicide theory and
start the search for his body. Had McCor-
mick intended to disappear because he felt
that he could not face his creditors his
friends realize that 1t would have been an
easy matter for him to have had a change
of clothes and TO have left his old ones
in the stateroom in order to practice
deception.

the Hearing
OF STANDARD OIL MEN
Inquiry Resumed at New York This
Afternoon.
AGREEMENT WITH ATTORNEYS

to Their Homes.
AGREEMENT WITH ATTORNEYS

NEW YORK, January 1.-THE hearing
before the commissioner in the case Of the
state of Missouri against the Standard Oil
Company of Indiana and two other COM
panies doing business in Missouri was ad-
Journed today until o'clock this after
noon by consent of counsel
At the request of counsel Of the Standard
OH Company Justice Gildersleeve of the
supreme court had put the hearing before
q commissioner over until Friday. Last night
however, an agreement was reached be-
tween Attorney General Hadley and the
standard Oil Company's counsel to 60 on
with the hearing today.
The reasons given for this change of at
titude was that the western lawyers repre-
senting the Standard OH Company were
anxious TO return home and they yolun-
tarily offered to go on with the hearing.
Mr.. Hadley, however, was unable to re-
sumo it early today, as his process servers
could not get at the witnesses whom he de-
sired to put on the stand He was noti-
fled that they will be ready this afternoon.
Mr.. Hadley said this morning:
Hadley Well Satisfied.
L am well satisfied with the results
nave obtained in New York in my investi-
cation of the Standard Oil control of
the oil business in Missouri I have Sc
cured some part of what L came here for
and l did not expect to secure everything.
The testimony given by Mr.. Jockel and
Mr.. Hardicastle, former employees of the
STANDARD Oil Company, and Mrs Ida NJ
Butts establishes to my mind the connec-
ton Which l seek to show as existing In
missouri between the Standard Oil Com
pany of Indiana, the Republic Oil Com
pany and the Waters-Pierce Oh Company.

les of the Standard Oil trust The refusal

WALL STREET BLAMED
SENATOR HEPBURN URGES HIS
NATIONAL CORPORATIONS BILL.

The Senate began its session TODAY by
adopting a motion offered by Mr. Aldrich
that when the Senate adjourn TODAY it be
until Monday next.
Mr.. Hepburn did not call up his purs
food bill as he had intended, but instead.
addressed himself to his bill creating a
national board of corporations Among
the provisions OF the latter measure is
one denying the use of the mails to in
surance companies which are not in
dorsed by the proposed bureau He said
that this restriction would have the effect
of confining insurance companies to the
insurance business and declared this
would prevent the use of the money of
the insurance companies for the purposes
OF speculation in Wall street.
Wall Street Methods Denounced.
In this connection he entered upon a de-
nunciation of Wall street and its meth
eds

but in reality it is only a gambling club
with headquarters on the Hudson river.
from which it assumes to dictate the
fnanclal policy of the country threaten
ing that unless this thing or that is done
1t Will wreck the country. Fortunately"
he added. the time has passed when IT
can do that, although it once possessed
that power. A threat of this character
was made a few days ago. and it re-
minded me of a small boy whom 1 once
knew who when about to be chaStised by
his parents would shout vehementlv L
Will tear my coat, 4 will tear my coatH"
He went on to say that there is IAN un-
natural and unholy congestion of the
money of the country in Wall street and
he asserted that hundreds of millions
have been accumulated there by a COM
bination of gamblers who use their power
to brlng about a stress in the money
market He would have this tendency
checked so far as it could be done and
he believed that his bill would aid in ac-
comprising that result.

of the building on King street, Eva of

a third story is to be added. This will

rooms are large and are likely to be
more commodious and comfortable
than those at present in use. The
structure at the corner of Beretanfa

Elks as their lodge building but it's

project. There is also a reported adj
vocacy, in certain quarters, OF the low
cr or Sassafras River route, which if
adopted would be a distinct and vic
ious blow to our own cOunty's welfare
Now, can the people OF this county do
ANYTHING to counteract these adverse
influences? Nothing, perhaps, SO de-
finite and concerted and influential as
can be done for the DREDGING of the
Elk River channel. But we can agi-
tate the scheme, we can strive to in
terest and influence our business &C
ouantances, we can keep sending in
letters to our own Maryland Con
gressmcn, and to any others we may
know. Every little helps when it comes
to pulling any project through and no
modest sense OF our personal or county
influence should deter us from using
that influence (howcver small or great
it bc) for the achievement OF our de
sres. Ii YOU will study the history of
Government appropriations for inter
nal improvements you will find that no
rcmotcst section OF this land has ever
hesitatcd to get in the push when it
wanted a bit of the things that were
going.

AN APOLOGY

wy T. make our apologies to the Ii
w brarian OF The Historical So
ciety OF Pennsylvania for the
editorial OF last week wherein we sug-
cestcd that his vision OF ElktOn slave
pens was possibly born OF an opium
dope. Mr.. Jordan writes us that he
never saw any "slavc-pcns' i'll Elkton,
that he was never interviewed by the
New York Herald, that he never ut
tered the statements attributed to HIM
in the columns of that journal. MIR.
Jordan SAYS some OF the Philadelphia
reporters did interview him concern
ing the cellars OF the Girard house,
and that in the course OF the interview
he incidentally mentioned the fact that
"about twenty-five years ago, while
spending part OF the summer at the
ScWcl mansion was shown in the
tory slaves in. and that the iron rings
in the wall with the chains, had not
been removed although the handouts
had" \nd out OF this simple rcminis-
ccncc an unscrupulous reporter manu-
featured the whole story OF the l.lkton
slave pens and the grim monuments OF

which will have to be reckoncd with;
but the stand-patters, who are OPP
posed to all talk of tariff adjustment,
see in the inheritance tax an addition
al menace to their position. One
need only look back to the days of the
Spanish War to find what an inheri-
lance tax is likely to bring in. There
was a graduated duty OF this sort inn
posed among the war takers. 1t did
not last quite four years, but starting
with ST 100000 in the first year, it had
produced S. 100000 i'll the third year
and was progressing at the rate OF
7,ooo, 600 a year when it was repealed.
Now ii the President starts i'll serl
ously with his avowed proposal to re-
duce swollen fortunes it is a certainty
that this Inheritance tax law will not
be long in bringing in $2o,ooo,ooo
year This will be very nice for the
poor tax payer, but it will more than
ever increase his desire to see the
tariff reduced to point where it will
not produce SO much revenue. This
is where the stand-patter will feel the
shoe pinch, and it is only natural that
| he will not look with favor on any law
that will weaken his position.
There is great deal OF speculation
over the legislation that Congress will
be able to get through in the brief
time allowed it during a short session.
| 1t is generally agreed that the Ship
| Subsidy bill will be passed There is
hope also in a great many quarters
that the Speaker will consent to the
passage OF River and Harbor Appro-
priation Bill. This will mean picking
| for nearly every Congressional dis
trict in the country Such bill is
usually held back till toward the end
OF session when the Speaker can al
ways use it judicously to bring rcluc-
tant members into line. Representa-
tive Burton, OF Ohio, Chairman OF
| the River and Harbor Committee, is
| naturally much interested in the meas
| urc, and has assured the River and
IIarbor Congress, which met here last
Autumn, that he would do all in his
power to see a bill passed at thi, SEES
sion The plan OF the River and Itar-
| Dor Congress is for a widespread and
systematic scheme ct river and har-
| Dor Improvement. which would involve
| an outlay oi about $5O.oOOOoO annually.
| for several years to come. This is a
large amount. but it is held with a
reasonably certain fixed appropriation
work can be carried on more ccono-
micaly an dcffcctivcIy than when it is
lett to guess work whether or not any
money will be available to complete

Cultivate Silence.
The Outlook

Til, Outlook.
1t is in silence alone that we come
into possession of ourselves. The
noises of life disturb us as a cloud OF
dust interviewed between the eye and
the sky. There ought to be a cult
for the practice OF silence-a body of
men and women committed to the
preservation of the integrity of their
souls by neither hearing nor making
speech for certain periods, pledged to
the culture of the habit of quietness.
Maeterlinck has pointed out the
fact that the best things are never
spoken and the ruestintercourse be-
tween congenial spirits is carried on
without words. If we said less and
thought more there would be far few
or things to explain, many sources of
irritation would be dried up at the
sources, and the prime cause OF irri-
tatiOn. which is is nervous eXhaus-
ton or excitement, would be re-
moved.

What Class Are You In 4?
Ebert Hubbard.

Ebert Hubbard
The world bestOws it's big prizes both
i'll money and hOnors for but one thing
And that is Initiative. What is Initia-
tive? I'll tell you: 1t is doing right
things without being told But next to
doing the thing without being told is to
do it when you are told once. That is
to say, carry the Message to Garcia;
those who carry a Message get high hon
Ors, but their pay is not always in pro-
portion. Next are those who never do a
thing until they are told twice; such get
no honors and small pay. Next are those
who do the right thing only when neces
sity kicks them from behind and these
get Indifference instead Of honors and
IL pittance for pay. This kind spends
most of it's time polishing bench with a
hard luck story. Then still lower down
in the scale than this, we have the fellow
who will not do the right thing even
when some one goes along to show him
how and stays to see that he does it; he
is always out of n job, and receives only
the contempt he deserves, unless he has a
rich Pa, in which case Destiny patiently
awaits around the corner with Il stuffed
club. To which class do you belong?
