into an odd dilemma a few days age

that when the officers of the cruiser

last Tuesday night Mr.. and Mrs IA
Liho were among the invited guests.
The invitation read something like
this: Admiral Dayton and the officers
OF the feet request the pleasure OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Knniho's company. etc,
Kaniho spent many hours translate
ing the missive "Mr. Kaniho" he
understood and Mrs. Kaniho" was
also clear to him. but who was COM
pany? Suddenly bright light struck
him. Why. of course "company"
could be nothing else but the COM
pany OF hula artists whom he was the
head
Kaniho hastily spread the glad news
of the invitation to all the hula ladies'
and on the evening In question the
entire troup followed him decked In
their very most joyful rags.
All went well until the Naval Wharf
was reached, but here sentry stopped
the outfit and wanted TO know II they
we're invited guests.
Sure kela," said Kaniho, and he
proudly produced the much valued In
Wtation.
The sentry read the invitation. Then
he looked down the long line of

ting in the prices it charges for
oil-are given in the latest at
tack on the combine made re.
Gently by Commissioner of Cor
porations Herbert Knox Smith,
After exposing how the Stand.
ard company ships Oil to Europe
and sells it for less than in the
United States and also how the
corporation discriminates be-
tween localities in this country,
Commissioner Smith closes his
report to President Roosevelt
with the following significant
paragraph:
"By your direction, in view OF
the proceedings of the Attorney
General against the STANDARD
Oil company, some of the more
detailed evidence secured by
the bureau regarding price dis.
elimination is at present with
held from publication; and the
same is true of evidence regar l.
ing other unfair practices, the
most important of which are
the maintenance of bogus indie
pendent companies, espionage
over the business of competit-
ors, especially by bribing rail-
way employees to disclose their
shipments, and deception as to
the quality of oils Sold"
The reference to the with
holding of more detailed evil
dence regarding price discrim-
ination and other unfair prac.
tees" is believed to indicate
that the Attorney General con-
templates starting proceedings
against the Standard Oil com
pany from some new angle,
possibly intended to force the
company to treat all sections of
the country fsirly in the mat
ter of prices and to see that
Europe does not fare better than
the United States.
The statement just issued by
Commissioner Smith is h j 6
third report to the President on
the methods of the Standard
Oil company. In the first he
showed how the combine had
waxed great, aided by discrimi-
native rates granted it by the
railway companies. In the Sec
ond he told how Standard Oil
has heaped up profits estimat
ed at more than $3.50, 600, 900, due
largely to the unreasonably
high prices it charged for its
products. The third port
deals with discrimination in
prices between states and cities
and Localities in this country
as we'll as between this country
and European countries.
Commissioner Smith sums
up the Standard Oil company'e
policy in regulating prices a.
follows:
1T is evident that the Stand.
ard charges a price which is
proportionate to the extent Of
it's monopoly in a given place
and reduces prices in proper
ton to the competition which
it may meet"
Regarding forei gn prices the
report says:
"The relative movement Of
oil prices as distinguished from
their absolute level has shown
for the last eight years startl'
ing disparity between the Unit.
ed States and foreign markets

charged for the same oil in
San Francisco. The average
price, freight deducted, for
southern California in Deem
Der, 1904, was 7.2 cents, and the
average for the northern part Of
the state was 1874 cents. Ore
gon, supplied from the same
source, paid the price of 1873
cents, freight deducted, and the
state of Washington 1877 cents.
"Another interesting compar-
ison is that showing the lowest
and highest prices within given
states. In Arkansas the differ
ence between the lowest and
highest prices in December,
1904. freight deducted, was 70
cents; Colorado, 81; Idaho, so;
Louisiana, 85; Missouri, "a;
Montana, 40; New Mexico, 1872;
Illinois, 4; Kentucky, 4.3; Min
,nesota, 48; Ohio, 4.s; Tennes-

From table showing the
prices of illuminating oil in
large cities, less freight, in De.
cember, 1904. we give a few in

price in different cities, some of
the greatest differences being
in cities located in the same

Not only does the Standard
Oil discriminate between local
tiles, according to the report,
but it also discriminates in the
price it charges various rail-
roads for lubricants, through
the Galena-Signal Oil company.
Absolutely no satisfactory
explanation" says the report,
"has been given for the excess
sive prices paid by nearly all
railroads. They must be attri-
buted solely to the fact that the
Standard, which controls the
Galena, is powerful enough,
either by reason of it's enorm
Gus shipments of petroleum
products or by it's influence in
financial circles, to induce
most of the railroads of the
country to pay excessive prices
for their lubricants. Instances
of this character may be cited.

Standard Oil company's ex-
cuses are very poor. "These re-
markable determinations in ia.
vor of foreign markets at the
expense of the American con-
sumers," continues the report,
"have naturally called forth ex-
cuses from the apologies of the
Standard. They have attempt
ed to create the impression that
the recent decline in prices of
American illuminating oil
abroad was necessitated by an
oversupply of that product.
They have also claimed that
there has been severe COMPETE
ton against the American pro-
duct from the oils of Russia
and other foreign countries and
that the reductions in export
and foreign prices were neces-
sary to retain the American ex-
port trade.
Neither of these arguments
is we'll founded. There was no
oversupply of illuminating oil
during the years 1904 and 1905,
at which time foreign prices
were being severely cut. The
exports from the United States
during 1904 were less than in
1901 and 1902. The exports from
the Eve important oil produc-
ing countries combined show
little more than a normal in
crease. The worlds production
in 1905 was less than in 1904.
The exports from the FIVE prin-
cipal countries combined in 1905
were more than 6 per cent. less
than in 1904. There was an ac-
tual decline in the total imports
into the United Kingdom dur
ing 1904 as compared with the
two preceding years and q still
more conspicuous decline dur.
ing 1905. Notwithstanding this
the prices in England fell
enormously. The imports into
Germany during 1904 were al
most exactly the same as dur
ing 1908, and the imports dur
ing 1905 fell off considerably;
but the German prices declined
very materially in both years"
Similar discrimination in pri-
ces is shown between different
states in this country.
Taking the average prices
for the several states in Decena-
Der, 1904 continues the report.
"the lowest price appears in
Delaware, ~ cents per gallon,
freight deducted, and the high
est in Colorado, 1872 cents per

more than twice as high. Part
