TESTIFY IN THE
OIL EXPOSURE
New Facts as to Ownership Brought
Out In STANDARD Company
Case in Flndlay,
Ohio

BY Associated Press.
FINDLAY, Ohio, Oct. 11.-Evidence
was brought by the state today in the
trial of the STANDARD Oil company of
Ohio for conspiracy against trade,
showing the ownership of the Manhat-
tan Oil company of Ohio to be in the
General Industrial Development COM
pany, limited, of London, Eng, also
that the Manhattan, which buys and
ships crude oil, does not compete with
the Standard, but does compete with
the independents.
These facts were brought out in the
testimony of r. T. Cuthbert, presi-
dent of the association.
A criminal suit is pending against
his company and he testified as to the
order of the court which renders him
immune from future criminal prose-
cution. This course was taken at the
suggestion of the prosecution upon the
appeal of Mr.. Cuthbert to the court
for protection.
The witness was summoned to bring
the books of the company showing the
record of stockholders. The books were
produced
What Minutes Show
The record of the last annual meet
ing showed that Mr.. Cuthbert had been
elected president by voting under
power of attorney 1895 shares of stock
owned by the English holding company,
that this comprised the entire stock of
the company with the exception of
twelve shares of which one each is held
by the president and directors Of the
company who are all residents of Lima,
Ohio, the home of the company.
Mr.. Cuthbert said he had been presi-
dent since 1903, and he had held the
same power of attorney since that
time.
He knew nothing about the English
company, had never seen any one con-
nected with it, but had corresponded
with ]. w. Francis, it's secretary, and
w. w. Johnston, its managing direc-
tor, whose addresses were London. He
RENTS money to them.
Mr.. Cuthbert said he had been con-
nected with the company about eight
years and prior to his election as presi-
dent was its controller.
Explains Business
Explaining the nature of the business
done by the Manhattan, Mr.. Cuthbert
said that before he became president
of the company he had done a general
oil business; that 1t owned producing
properties, a Pipe and a refinery at
Galatea, Ohio.
| 1t has disposed of all it's pipe line to
the Ohio Oil company but he did not
know who was now operating the re-
finery at Galatea.

ARBITRATION SUGGESTED By
SOUTHERN RAILWAY OFFICIALS

The expected settlement of the strike
of the Southern railway machnists which

decide the matter shall return TO work The
workmen, at the conferences Wednesday
and yesterday, presented a proposition that
the railway company grant them an in
crease of cents per hour for ma
chinists and cent per hour for apprentices.
The railway officials last night sent cir.
cular to the striking machinsts proposing,
as stated. to settle the strike by arbitration.
The circular which was dated October IA.
and signed by General Manager Spencer,
follows:
Following my circular to the machinists
of the Sth instant, the committee represent
Ing the machinists called on me on yester-
day. the 18th instant, and demanded a gen.
eral increase OF cents per hour for ma
chinists and i cent per hour for apprentices
Inc company does not feel that this de-
mand Is reasonable and cannot grant II.
II mad previously been agreed that the
exlstng rules and regulations for .ne gov
eminent of machinists and machin.sts' ap.
prentlces were acceptable.
Proposition to Arbitrate.
AHeieupon the Ioilowlng proposition was
made to the committee: That the ma
chinlsts at once declare the pending strike
OH and return to work in the company's
shops at the advanced rates shown in nv
circular of the 9Th instant. and that there
upon the following question be submitted
to arbitration, namely: What basis NOT

famed In my circular above mentioned of
the Sth instant. and not more than the
said demands of the machinists. should.
under all the circumstances surrounding
the company and mach nists be adopted
as tne wage scale to be paid by the COM
pany to the machinists. The men TO choose
one arbitrator, the company one and these
TWO 10 select third: the decision OF the
majority OF these arbtrators to be final
ana conclusive and to govern the wage
scale for the period of two years-each
party to pay one-half of the cost of arbi-
tration.
The proposition was considered hy the
men, ana 1t Is stated that they did not look
upon II with favor. claiming that the South
ern omclals had treated other employees of
the system with more liberality and they do
not feel that they should be called upon
TO submit their claims to arbitration The
