ROCKEFELLER NOT SOLE OWNER
Denied That He Controls Standard
oil Company ENTIRELY,


Frederick T. Gates, the representa-
tive Of John d. Rockefeller, who re-
Gently made an official announcement,
saying that Mr.. Rockefeller's fortune
could not exceed $3.50, 100000 or $780,
900 900 and that his income did not
exceed $15,O00,0O0 or $4,000, 900,
adds to his statement in an interview
that Mr.. Rockefeller does not control
the Standard Oil company now, nor
has he ever controlled it.
At no time, said Mr. Gates, have
Mr.. Rockefeller's holdings of Stand
ard Oil stock been as much as 80 per
cent Of the total.
This statement was brought out by
a reporter who visited Mr.. Gates at
his home in Mont Clair, N. j.:
"Mr. Rockefeller has never been in
control of the stock of the Standard
Oil company" Mr.. Gates said in re
ply to a question on that point. "The
stockholders control and always have
controlled the company"
Have there not been times when
Mr. Rockefeller held more than 80
per cent of the stock? His holdings
have varied from time to time," said
Mr.. Gates. "Mr. Rockefeller's larg,
est holdings of Standard Oil stocks
at any time, have never been as much
as 30 per cent on the totals"

News has just been received that the
wages of miners in the Roslyn and Gle
alum districts have recently been ad-
Vanced 10 per cent. In view of the
scarcity Of fuel during the past win
ter, this increase may become bene-
1clal to the coal market if it remains
permanent.

ing between Pullman and Wawawai.

Wawawai, for $4,000. The farm con

1t is said trains will be running from

Coast railway in two and half years.
Tacoma will be the first large city
reached by our line after passing
through the Tieton pass.
Acting under orders of Mayor Moore

as on last Sabbath.
The Tacoma saloons were closed

the Sunday closing law have been re-
ported.
The legislative investigation now in
progress into the conduct of the Office
OF the state land commissioner has
brought out prominently the fact that
standing timber on the lands owned by
hesitate is being sold at from 20 cents
to 80 cents per thousand feet less than
it could be sold under the same law
with a slight amendment permitting
the purchasers two or four years more
time within which to remove the tim.
Der purchased. This is the testimony
of all witnesses examined on this
point without single exception.
Back of this is another very per
tinent fact, not alluded to in the
testimony, and that is that the pres
en- law was passed by the legislature
of 1897 at the instigation of the log
ging interests, the purchasers of the
state timber under these conditions
That law is cheating the school chill
dren of Washington out of from $500,
600 to $15O,00O a year and the money
goes into the pockets of the big, rich
logging companies of the state, who
are organized into a trust to keep vi
the price of logs and make the con
sumers pay more for their timber.

Senate Increases Appropriation Made
by House.
The senate committee on postoflces
and post roads has reported to the
senate the postof1ce appropriation
bill. An increase Of about 100000
has been made over the amount APP
propriated by the house bill, which
was $2O9,000,000.
The largest increase was the adj
vancing the pay of rural carriers to
$500. The present pay of such car
riers is $3.50. The house bill increas-
ed this is $S40. The house made an
appropriation to increase salaries of
clerks and carriers in postoflces of
ali grades, and to this the senate com
mittee added provisions for the grad
uated promotion of clerks and car
riers up to 500. Special grades are
created above the amount where
emergencies and the character of ser.
vice made them necessary. Another
amendment was adopted appropriate
ing 100000 additional for clerks in
third class postoflces. A change was
also made in the payment to land
grant railroads for the carrying of
mails. The house provided that $17.1O
should be paid per ton for all mail
carried over $4,000 pounds, and the
senate committee reduced the weight
to 5000 pounds.
The controversy over newspapers
and magazines which carry coupon
advertisements was disposed of by
the adoption of the following provi-
sion:
THAT hereafter newspapers and
periodicals may carry blank or print
ed return coupons as part of the adj
Vertisements, or blank space for
writing concerning the subjects
treated, not in excess Of one-third of
the superficial area occupied by the
advertisements or articles, without
impairing their rights to the second
class postage rates"

City of Mexico, Feb. 25.-Dr. e.
Estuphinan, minister to Mexico from

When the battle was fought, where
the encounter took place, and what
was the ultimate result of the strug-

the first word DR.. Estuphinan has re-
ceived from Honduras for several
days, although he has sent several
cablegrams of inquiry. Details of the
battle are hourly expected.
