OIL MEN REJOICE.
What Independent Producers Think
of Standard Oil Message.
IBy Te.eerapA to Tho rrIbuns.. .

Pittsburg. May 6-'sOr fifteen years we have
been contending for square deal. and from the
Presidents message it looks as If labors
were to be rewarded at last" said ex-senator
James w. Lee Of the Pure OH Company. one Of
the leading independent concerns in the coun-
try, to-day, in discussing the message Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt to Congress on the Standard OIL
Company ct looked dark often enough. but
the Independents have kept their hearts up. and
it really looks as if we are at last TO come into
our own
eff we would get equalization OF rates and
other things we are entitled to, and which the
Standard OH Company enjoys 1t would prove a
great boon to many people Instead of s45.OO0.-
900 profits going into the Golfers OF the Stand
ard OIL Company yearly. large part Of that
amount would 81 into the pockets of the people
Of the United States.
With competition in the oil business the price
of oil would be lower 10 the consumer. and at
the same time the producer would be given a
fair market price for his product, and would not
as now. have to take what the Standard offers
him. according to it's whims and the state OF its
treasury.
MANY of the wells that are abandoned now in
Western Pennsylvania and other places that
cannot now be worked at a profit would be
started UP again for then the price of crude Oil
would be increased. and the small wells. which
under present conditions are lost forever, would
be a benefit to those who own the property on
which they are located
"Other ways in which this country would be
benefited would be that with more independent
producers there would be more work with the
organization Of new oil companies. Reineries
would be erected here as they were in the old
days before they dismantled by the Stand
ard.
III. H. Rogers and John D. Archbold Of the
Standard. in discussing the Garfield report and
the Presidents message, say: 1T is unimportant
that Of the 26,OOO,OOO barrels OF oil annually
manufactured 100000 barrels are exported
each year. and with its manufacture and price
the American public are not interested ]
wonder if the Pure OIL Company people are not
interested IN It when we have a daily protsuc-
ton of 1900 barrels and have foreign market
in addition to having agents to sell our product
in other countries?"

RHODE ISLAND AFLOAT.
Pulled off By Tugs at High Tide
IniurY Unknozcn.
IBy Telegraph to The tribune ]

Norfolk Va. May 6-The United States bat
tleship Rhode Island was afioat again tonight
after having been aground at the mouth OF the
York River since early yesterday. Four powerful
naval tugs, the Uncas, the Wahneta the Hercules
and the Mohawk. drew the big warship from
the sandbar. The United States cruiser Min
neapolis stood by and saw the Rhode Island
pulled from shoal water at $50 O'Clock. and
would have taken hand in the proceeding but
Tor her inability to get a hawser aboard the
battleship.
When the naval tugs reached the stranded
warship, after thirty mile run from the Nor
folk Navy Yard. they found the Rhode Islands
nose pOked high on the bar at the eastern en-
trance to the York River. Early this morning
the Minneapolis endeavOred to get line aboard.
with the assistance OF the Uncas.
In manRUvring the Uncas was in collision
with the Rhode Island. and carried away Part Os
her rail- Later the Mohawk went aground
alongside the bEttleship while passing a hawser
aboard that vessel. but soon got afloat. Efforts
to float the Rhode Island at high tide this morn
ing were futile. At low tide to-day the fact was
disclosed that the battleship was drawing
twenty-four feet Of water aft and eighteen feet
forward
water was pumped from the forward tanks
aft. and every piece of portable material was
shifted from the forward part Of the vessel with
the view OF tightening that quarter. This after
noon the naval tugs were arranged in tandem
for a strain at the battleship at high tide.
Their efforts were successful. The battleship
anchored, and will come 20 Hampton Roads to-
morrow morning
1t is believed that the course of the warship
was laid too far to the eastward in entering the
York River.
The Wahneta, the Mohawk and the Hercules
returned to the navy yard tonight, leaving the
Uncas standing by the Rhode Island. 1t is not
known tonight the extent Of the injury to the
ship.
