WINS PRELIMINARY
STANDARD OIL COMPANY DRAWS
 FIRST BLOOD.
JudRe LandIs Blocks Effort of PrO1eeu- tion to Introduce Files of an Illinois Railway and Ware
 hnnne COmmlaaiOn.

Chicago. March 8.-The attorneys for the Standard oil Company of Indiana, who Is on trial charged with accept ing freight rebates. won a temporary victory today through the refsual of Judge Landis to allow the prosecution to Introduce as evidence files of the Illinois Railway and Warehouse Com- mission.
 The ruling was made in connection with the testimony of William Kilpat- rick of Springfield, the secretary of the commission, who had been witness in the morning and was recalled to the stand in the afternoon.
 Another feature of the afternoon ses- zion was the ordering from St. Louis by the prosecution of over 300 books of 100 pages each, to be used as evi- dence. The books are those from which w. T. Aylesbury, an account ant. had been requested by the Gov ernment to compile list of the 1903 cars mentioned in the indictments as carrying oil in St. Louis.
 The defense objected to the introduce tion of the list because 1t was not wholly the personal work of the witt ness. and the books were ordered to ret the evidence before the jury.

Chicago, March S.--A dispatch to The Tribune from washington says:
 There was some third term gossip around the White House yesterday. It was started by Senator Depew, who said:
 ''President Roosevelt undoubtedly means what he says. that he will not accept another nomination at the hands of his party; but conditions may arise where he could not refuse. If It was Irnown that he would accept, he would be nominated by exclamation.
 Representative Champ Clark of Mis- souri A warm friend of the President, said: ,,
 "I believe that the President was honest in his statement on the night nF the election in 1904 that he would not accept another nomination. be- iieve. however, that if he can be con- ,,inced that unless he is nominated some reactionary would be nominated. he would accept"

 The academy also heard reports up- on the typhoid epidemics at Fittsburg and Berwick, Pa, the former written by pr. J. F.

 Under the system of municipal own ership, one at least eliminates the harm a private corporation may do during an epidemic in its efforts to safeguard the capital stock at the ex- pense of further disaster to the peo- ple."
 Another conclusion was:
 'Physicians and sanitariums must re- cover from their habit of speaking of a certain amount of typhoid as normal" Typhoid Is d filth disease. The only normal amount of typhoid Cor civil led country. is none at all.

HEG1luGhA
 Appointment.
 Washington, March s.-Mr Larrin- aga. the resident commissioner from Porto Rico in Congress, has asked the President to appoint a native Porto Rican to the secretaryship of the isle and to succeed Secretary Post, who has been appointed Governor. The Secretary. by virtue of his office, is a member of the Executive Council.
 The Foraker act, Mir. Larriniga says. provides that the Executive Council shall consist of eleven members, five of whom at least shall be native Porto Ricans. He says that for seven years there have been but i've native Porto Ricans in the Council, and he thinks that the native representation should be enlarged. The appointment of native to succeed MT. Post will accom- plish this At the White House. 1t Is stated that the President has not taken up the question of the appointment of Mir. Posts successor.
 MT Larriniga will sail from New York tomorrow for Porto Rico.
