Standard Oil Had
Secret Arrange
ment.
GARFIELD REPORT FILED
Elaborate Outline of Means
by Which Immense Trust
Evaded Law.

Washington, May 17-The Presi
dent today transmitted to Congress a
complete report of Commissioner Gar
field on the Standard Oil, a synopsis Of
which was sent to Congress on May
In sending the complete report to the
President, Commissioner Garfield took
occasion to answer the comments OF
various railway officers and others on
the statement made in his synopsis
The report covers 500 printed pages
and in support of the various allega-
tions made by Garfield, he prints bold
ly copies of way bills, letters from
railroad officials bearing on their trans
actions with agents of the Standard
Oil Company and independent compa-
MES, special oil tariffs of the various
railroads, bills of lading, blind bills of
lading and secret understanding and
agreements of several railroad com
panies named with the Standard Oil
Company. In many instances, accord
ing to copies of way bills, the rate
paid by the Standard Oh Company was
only one-third Of the amount stated in
the bill. The testimony of the en-
ployes OF the railroads is given in
confirmation of the bureaus charge
that there was concealment of rates
granted the Standard Oil Company
The report shows further the estab-
lishment Of through rates from small,
inconsequential and in many instances
obscure points near the large shipping
centers, and filing the tariff with the
Interstate Commerce Commission to
show that the rates were not secret.
These rates were much lower than
thG4e from larger centers nearby and
only the Standard OH Company would
discover them.

Salt Lake, May 1.-THE Mormon
Church is going out of business, ac-
cording to an announcement in the 10.
cal papers today. Its principal hold.
ing in Salt Lake, the Utah Light and
Railway Company, is to be taken over
by a $25,O0O,00O corporation composed
|of English and American capitalists.
The new company will also acquire
the Ogden Street Railway and will
build an electric line from Juab Coun-

made that the Salt Lake and Los An
geles Railroad, another church prop
|erty, has been sold to a local syndi-
cate for $500,O00. This road lis four
teen miles In length and runs from
the city to the Great Salt Lake. Presi-
dent Joseph F. Smith of the Mormon
Church, is quoted as saying that the
divorce of the religion and business is
made on account of the fact that the
Mormons, whom the church sought
to protect years ago, no longer need
the protection of the church in bust
ness affairs. If the policy is CON-
pletely carried out the sale of the
traction interests will be followed by
the sale of Its stocks in banks, sugar

prises. 1t will be nothing less than a
commercial revolution which will pro.
foundly affect the political and social

Revives Discussion
in Senate Over
Printed Article.
BRANDS AUTHOR THAR"
Declares President or Some
One Near Executive Was
Source Of Story.

Washington, May II. Senator
Bailey in the Senate today revived the
scene Of yesterday by having read a
letter he had written to ex-senator
Chandler asking him for anything that
he had written to the President con-
cerning himself and the replies from
Senator Chandler, including a copy of
Chambers diary giving the history of
his movements on the day when a GER
tain memorandum was sent the Presi-
dent. Bailey quoted from the New
York Tribune and charged the paper
and its Washington correspondent
with modifying it's lies" He referred
to the report that the memorandum
was circulated among all Democratic
Senators. This he denied, but he
charged that the President yesterday
showed the memorandum to Repub-
lican Senator and Republican men,
Der Of the House. He said that the
Chandler memorandum impugned no
bad faith to him, nor even to the rail
road Senators. Bailey declared that
the President did not doubt his (Bail-
ey's) good faith because three days
after the memorandum, the President
through former Senator Chandler
asked him to confer with Attorney
General Moody on the subject. Bailey
took up the reply of the Chicago Trib-
une correspondent to his denunciation
of yesterday and said it did not meet
the situation. He quoted from 1t and
intimated the assertions that the cor
respondent made were based on infor-
nation from the President or some one
near him. Bailey said he had been
charged with being impetuous, rash
and dictatorial but no one hao or could
charge him with double dealing. When
such charge was made he would
brand across the forehead of the man
making it the word "liar" in order
that he might be known and stunned
of all men.

Roswell, May 1.-THE trial of Sam
Houston for the murder of Charles
Johnson, which occurred on the 4Jh
DAY of last April, was begun Thursday
May 10, at Roswell in the district
court for Chaves County, the trial con,
sulned the greater part of three days
and after the jury had been ont three
hours it returned a verdict of murder
in the second degree and recommended
the defendant to the clemency Of the
court
The facts leading up to this killing
are substantially as follows: 1t seems
that Houston for some time prior to
the shooting, was in fear Of Johnson
doing him bodily harm and few days
before the shooting he had Johnson
arrested for carrying a gun and on
the night of April 4, last, Johnson,
who was a porter in the Elk Saloon
at Roswell, visited the boarding house
of Mrs. Glenn directly opposite the
court house where Houston was EN-
ployed, and called the latter out to in.
quire of him why he had caused the
arrest. Afterwards, johnson entered
the house together with Houston and
after few words between them John.
son turned to leave, when Houston
