 There was.
 Millions prior to him had seen the same phenomenon and regarded it as an unexplained mystery

MINNESOTA MAY GUST
STANDARD OIL COMPANY

st. P sul, Mimi, June 1O.-The
state of Minnesota is to institute suit
to GUST the Standard Oil Company
from the state. The charge to be
made against it will be that of dis
elimination in the price of oils be-
tween various communities in the
state, contrary to the provisions of the
Hinton law passed at the last session
of the legislature.
The suit is the re ,ult of the COM
plant recently filed with the secre-
tary of state by certain independent
oil dealers. The matter was referred
to the attorney general, as is required
by the Hinto law, and that official has
now selected Dan Richard, of Mime
apolis, who drafted the bill under
which prosecution is to be made, to
prepare the case for presentation in
court.
The Hinton law prohibits any deal
er in oils from discriminating between
municipalities or communities and
provides that the price must be the
same in all parts of the state, after all
lowing for the difference in freight
charges The penalties for violation
OF the law are very severe.

AUTOMOBILE RACE
PEkING TO PARIS

/. Peking. June 11.-Seven automo-
biles started yesterday in the Peking-
Paris race. Three of the cars are
French, one Dutch and one Italian.
The UnitedStates, French and Austrian
ministers and q large representation
of foreign residents were present at
the start to give the contestants a
send off
A large crowd of Chinese viewed the
cars from a distance, not knowing
what to think Of the strange vehicles
which have never been seen in the
city before.
The total distance from Picking to
Paris is $500 English miles. It is
learned from Mongolia that the coolie
caravan which is transporting the pa
troll for the use of the cars has spread
abroad the news of the forthcoming
passage Of white men in cars which
are driven by themselves at speed
greater than that Of a galleping horse.
This has excited great curiosity
among the population, but there is no
fear Of hostile demonstration. The
cars will proceed together as far as IT.
kutsk and will reach there about the
end Of the month. The GRAND Lama
Of Urga. with whom DAHL Lama, the
head Of the Buddhist sect took refuge
q the time of the English march on
u Hasse, is preparing festive well
come for the racers.

ture, all Of the criminally insane in the

ed to an insane ward at the peniten.
tiary at Walla Walla, Wednesday

SPOKANE GROCERS CUT
OUT BREAD TRADE

Spokane, June 11.-Because the
master bakers association has raised
the prices of bread so high that retail
grocers are left no margin of profit,
the Spokane grocers' association has
voted to dispense with the handling
Of all bakers products in stores owned
by members Of the association. After
q heated discussion, the association de.
cided to cut loose from the bakers
and not only will they stop selling
bread, but all bakers products will
find no room on the shelves Of the re-
tail grocers.
The master bakers refused to lower
the price of the commodity, claiming
it is impossible in view of the present
price of wheat. As a retaliatory
measur the bakers will probably DE-
liver their wares direct to the con-
sumers and wagons will cover ever!
part of the city.

FURNITURE TRUST HAS
RESOLVED TO Dlss0IyF

Portland, Or, June 12.-Twa,.,
members of the furniture trust en,a.
ed pleas Of guilty before Judge Wolvs,
ton in the federal court to the indiot
ment returned by the recent fedars,
grand jury, charging them under ths
Sherman antitrust act with consn;r
acy in restraint of trade and consni,
acy to monopolize trade. Judge Wi
verton imposed fine of $25 on each
corporation and individual pleading
and it is thought likely that Others
will follow the lead taken by the first
twenty, and escape the notoriety of .
public trial.
Sixteen of those pleading guilty we're
members of the Northwest Furnitnre
exchange, and the other four are small
local dealers, identified with Portland
organizations.
United States Attorney Bristol rec.
commended the small fine of $25 each
He said that the reformatory purposes
of the law would be fully met.
That this marks the finish of the
furniture trust is shown by the publ.
cation of resolutions adopted by the
Northwest Furniture exchange and
offered in court. This resolution
reads:
Resolved, that the Northwest Fur.
niture exchange is dissolved, the rela-
tions of the different members as an
organization terminated, the agree.
ments and obligations of the different
members be annulled, and the indivi-
dual corporations, firms and persons
composing said association follow and
pursue their respective business with.
out regard to or under the control Of
any act, regulation, rule or influence
of the Northwest Furniture exchange
and without any com bination of prices
or in any respect in restraint Of
trade"

KUROKI TAKES NO STOCK
In PRESENT war TALK

Seattle, June 10.-''Not in my life
time, not in this generation, and pos
sibly never, will there be war between
the United States and Japan. The
deepseated friendship existing, as it
has for two generations, is not to be
broken-not now-not so lightly at
any time"
General Kuroi, evidently lrritated
by the bellicose talk and tenor of the
dispatches sent out from Washington,
broke his silence yesterday and de-
clared himself as above on the ques-
tion of war between the two countries.
He spoke through an interpreter, but
unreservedly.
General Kuroki takes no stock in the
agitation of the so-called progressive
Japanese. Significantly enough, he
selected Seattle, the home of Takaha-
shi and Hattori, two of the leaders Of
the self-styled progressive Japanese in
this country, as the proper place to
make his views regarding the question
Of war known.
"Trivial affairs and momentary fur
ries,' the distinguished soldier con-
tinued, twill not break the friendly
relations cemented by two genera
tions Of time and peoples. Japan
does not want war, nor does the Unit
ed States. Little differences such as
the San Francisco school question and
other affairs of smaller Importance,
may appear irritating, but they can
not agitated into an issue of enough
Importance for the two countries to
consider for moment going to war
about. There has never been a time
when there was prospect of war over
the San Francisco differences.
