IN PROBING AT PITTSBURG
UNJUST DISCRIMINATION CASES

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PITTSBURG. February fO.-That rebates
amounting In the aggregate to millions have
been granted to tho Standard Oil Company
by the Pennsylvania lines, that small feeder
lines attempting TO convey oil from indie
pendent properties over the Pennsylvania
system have been frozen out by unjust dis
elimination In rates and unfair distribution
of cars-these are the leading facts which
1t Is said tonight have been gathered from
the records and accounts unwfllingly OPEN
ed to President Rooseveit's agents who are
at work here. The information comes to-
night from person who Is in intimate
touch with the situation.
And the work has only begun. Despite
the absolute lack Of cooperation on the
part OF the management OF the Pennsyi-
vania and the Pittsburg and Lake Erie,
Special Agent II. D. Brown and his mys-
terious companion are known to have UNI
earthed evidence that will make the case OF
the government thousand-fold stronger
than the suits brought by Attorney General
Hadley in Missouri.
Elaborate System Of Rebates.
This evidence barely touches on the elabo-
rate system of rebates and "freezing-out'
processes built up by the Pennsylvania and
it's controlled lines after long years Of eX-
perleHce III ueallHS Win lax anu easy -So-
ing government, with actual conditions in
the oil field and with the always astute and
alert management of the great oil trust 1t
may take weeks of work before the end OF
the system is reached. but when 1t is
there will be nothing left for President
Roosevelt to desire in the way of evidence
to show the relations of the eastern roads
to the Observation-Disclosures octopus.
The Farmer Greasy resolution in the
Pennsylvania legislature, providing for a
thorough probing Of the roads interests in
this state is premeditatediy designed to aid
the Presidents investigation at the right
moment, while Gov. Dawson. in West Vir-
ginia, will give similar assistance.

Mystery Concerning Portraits of Mo- KinIey, Roosevelt, Hay and Hanna.

KinIey, Roosevelt, Hay ana Hanna.
 PROVIDENCE, R. l., Dec. 3-Chief of Police Frank A. Matthews states that the portrait of President Roose- welt painted by W. D. Murphy, a New York artist, and which disappeared some time ago, is hidden, he believes, somewhere in this city.
 Four portraits, those of President Roosevelt. ex-President Mckinley, Sec retary of State John Hay and Senator Mark Hanna, were borrowed from the artist to be exhibited for charitable purposes and disappeared. The Nc. Klnley and Hanna portraits were found later in Philadelphia.
 The portrait of the late Secretary Hay was found in Dorrance street pawnshop on Saturday night. The Roosevelt and Hay portraits were ex- hibited together at a Weybossett street art gallery, from which they disappeared. Chief Matthews would not give any reason for his belief that the missing Roosevelt portrait is con cealed in Providence nor would he say anything concerning the pawning of the picture of Mir. Hay.
 It is said the pictures were borrowed by man who signed himself William ]. Wilson, vice president of the 4Ameri- can Historical society, saying that he wished to purchase the portraits for the society.

VERGENNES, Vt, Dec. S.-Careful search of the ruins of the cars wrecked by collision on the Rutland railroad at Vergennes siding show conclusively that no bodies are hidden beneath them. Thus the number of dead by the disaster remains at three, though the serious condition of two of the injured gives ground for fear that there may be additions to the death roll. Archibald c. Dike, assistant teacher in the Bristol high school, whose side was crushed and who was internally injured, is considered to be in very critical condition.

NAVY PLUCK WINS.
Desperate Football Battle With
 West Pointerp.

West Pointers.
 PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 8. - Navy courage, dash and daring scored It's first athletic triumph over the army since 1900 on Franklin field and before throng of nearly 30,0O0 as brilliant in its way as the game itself.
 The navy's victory, by the score of 10 to 0, will go down into the history of Annapolis sport as one of the most remarkable football triumphs ever set down to the credit of the plucky young sailors.
 From Northcroft, who kicked the splendid field goal from the forty three yard line that set the seal on the ar. my's doom, and from Ingram, the tall navy fullback, who caught the for ward pass and scored the touchdown that broke the soldiers hearts, straight through the team to Norton. the little admiral to be, who handled the keen navy eleven with crystal judgment and nerves of steel, every man of the sailor host earned his ample share of the laurels.
 Moments there were in the trying first half, with the blue and gold fight. ing superbly against the desperate sol. diers, with the wind at their backs, when the Annapolis line taltered and reeled from the shock. when the An napolis backs forgot their cunning, but always little Norton rallied his men. and as surely they answered with a defense that hurled back the gray and black line that thundered against 1t again and again with fury that had tested Harvard, Yale and Princeton to the uttermost.
 If ever a battle was we'll planned and unfalteringly carried through to vic. tory it was the navy's splendid game against the West Pointers. Everything was foreseen. No turn or twist of the army backs, no surge or shift of the line, but the sailors met it and mas tered it. And when the skillful de- fense of the first half had served its purpose it was cast aside, and the navy went lunging into the battle in the second period equipped with every de. vice of modern football so we'll exc cuted and with such clear headed cer. tainty that the blue and gold tide was not to be stemmed.
 Once in the first half, when sol dier back broke away and ran nearly eighty yards for what seemed to be touchdown, the blue ranks shuddered, but from the moment when Northcroft kicked as clean goal as ever was seen on an eastern field the navy bat talion knew that the victory was theirs. i

MRS. OLIN A. MEAD ,. Cured of lncipient Consump-
 ton by Linonine.
Gain Forty seven Pounds


 Olin A. Mead of 10 Bank street, Danbury, Conn, says: "We think there is nothing quite so good as Linonine. and we have occasion to think so, for am satisfied that 1t saved Mrs Mead from consumption. It was several years ago, when we were living ih Waterbury, that she was attacked by severe cough which quickly settled on her lungs. We did everything we could to stem the tide, but she continued to grow thinner and cough painfully. She took cod liver oil enough to swim in, but it didn't do her a particle of good. Finally I called specialist in lung diseases and he said she was suffer ing from incipient consumption and he prescribed Linonine. with the re- suit that her cough soon vanished and Linonine commenced to build her up. At the time she began to take it she weighed 103 pounds; to- day she weighs over 150. There hasn't been day in all the time since that we haven't had Linonine in the house-we wouldn't think of trying to get along without it, and I strongly advise all who are suffering from weak throats and lungs to take 1t systematically. for am sure 1t will permanently cure them''
