MANHATTAN OIL COMPANY
Its Affairs Probed at Standard
Hearing in New York.

New York, Oct 9.--Information that
may aid Attorney General Wade Ellis
of Ohio i'm his investigation of the re.
iations OF the Manhattan Oil company
OF Ohio aud the Standard Oil company
was brought out In the hearing of the
federal suit against the oil combine
when r. r. Cuthbert, president OF the
Manhattan company, was called ~ a
witness. Mr.. Cuthbert is the son OF
the late John Cuthbert, who was asso-
ciated with the Standard and who, II
has been testified, had much to do
with the making OF the contract
whereby the Chicago and indianapolis
Gas companies, controlled by f. G
Benedict and Anthony N. Brady, OBJ
tanned constant oil supply from the
Standard as part consideration for
the sale Of the Manhattan company.
Mr.. Cuthbert said his father, previous
to his connection with the Manhattan
was director Of the Underwater Pipe
Line company. The witness said he
became president OF the Manhattan in
1902. Previous to that he was an
auditor OF the company Mr.. Cuthbert
described at length the physical A.
poets OF the Manhattan
Mr. Cuthbsrt said that the Manhat,
tan company was only doing pipe
line business at present. In 1907 the
Manhattan sold It's refinery to the
Solar Refining company, it's oil pro-
duction to the Ohio Oil company and
the tank cars to the Union Tank line.
All three companies, the witnees
said he understood, were controlled
by the Standard. The pipe system Of
the Manhattan company was con-
nected with the pipe lines Of the
Brooklyn Pipe Line company In Ohio
and with the Indiana Pipe Line COM
pany in Indiana. Mr. Cuthbert tssti-
ned that the capital stock Of the Man
haitian, after its purchase. Was grad
ually reduced from $4,000. 900 to $780,
900.

HALF WAY AROUND WORLD
Wireless Message From Manila Re.
corded on Atlantic Coast.


Sydney, N. s., Oct S.-A wireless
message received from a station over
1000 miles away is the latest achieve
ment OF the Marconi system. While
Marconi experts were tesfing new re-
ceiving cones at the top or the towers
at the station at Port Morien an 0p-
orator was In communication with the
wireless station at Manila. The mes
sage received was that the American
cruiser Philadelphia had arrived
there. The Msrconi people account
for the occurrence by the theory that
the cone at Manila must have been IN
perfect tune with that at Port Morien.
The message from Manila was
picked up while being sent to some
other station on the Pacific coast or
to a war vessel At the time the ex-
perts were experimenting In an effort
to receive messages from Ireland
They received several messages from
the Irish station and were In the act
of making further tests when the In.
struments recorded the arrival OF the
Philadelphia at Manila
The Marconi people say that no mis-
take was made and that the message
undoubtedly was sent by the Manila
station, which Is about 10000 miles
distant, and that as result expert

6syernsr Deneen Urges Action
Regarding waterways.
MESSAGE TO LEGISLATURE
State Executive informs Lawmakers
That the Time Il Ripe for Decisive
steps looking to Canal From the
Lakes to the Gulf.


Springfield, Ill.,. Oct. 9.--Governor
Deneen, In his message to the state
legislature, which met In special ses-
zion during the day, urged that some
decisive action be taken In legisla-
ticn regarding waterways. The time
WAS ripe for action. he said. and what
the legislature may do or fail to do
~ this time was certain materially to
advance or rstard the movement for
waterway developments.
The several statss,s' he said,
(which are interested in the Lakes
TO the Gulf deep waterways, look to
Illinois to take the lead. In federal
councils it seems to bs expected that
Illinois will contribute IN some degree
In proportion to its special paramount
advantage. It seems probable that the
policy win soon be formally estsf-
lished that states and localities en-
joying exceptional advantage shall
contribute in material way.
I'm view OF our position, both ply
steal and political, It d~volves upon
Illinois to define her division Of the
great water route upon the largest
scale OF depth practicable sand to pro-
vide for such work and such control
thereof as will disarm criticism and
satisfy the country that she has per-
formed her just proportion. With suck
legislation I believe we can expect
every assistance desired from the gen
eral government
The governor urged the passage OF
new primary election iaw--one
avoiding the imposition of even the
slightest limitation upon the power OF
the people freely and directly to ex-
press their views and to have their
views control In the nomination OF
candidates.
Recent disclosures, he said,
"seem to make Imperative such legis.
lation ~ may be deemed proper to
curtail the unlimited power OF rail-
roads and other corporations over the
issuance Of stocks and bonds
He further urged legislation for
uniform bookkeeping for railroads en-
gagged In interstate commerce, Iegis
lation restricting the issuance OF rail-
road ps sses and supplemental legisla-
tion governing interstate transporta-
tion.
