Washington, D. G., Aug. 5.-sisnif.
cant revelations are made public to.
day in report submitted to President
Roosevelt by Herbert Knox Smith
commissioner Of corporations, con
cerning the operations of the Stan
dard OIL company. In previous re-
port the means and methods of the
Standard were explained.
The present report sets forth the
effect of those methods on consumers
end on the profits Of the Standard
Oil company.
Commissioner Smith says: "The
Standard Oil company Is responsible
for the course Of prices Of petroleum
and its products during the last 25
years. The Standard has consistently
used its power to raise the price OF
oil during the last ten years, not only
absolutely, but also relatively to the
cost of crude oil.
Denies Standards Claims.
The Standard has claimed that II
has reduced the price Of oil; that II
has been benefit to the consumer
that only great combination like
the Standard could have furnished oil
at the prices that have prevailed.
Each one Of these claims" says
Commissioner Smith, "is disproyed
by this report" The increase In an
nual profits of the Standard from
1895 to 1904 was over $27.o0o.000.
The report says: "The total divi
dends paid by the Standard from 1882
to 1905 were 1851 ,922,904, averaging
24.15 per cent. The dividends, how
ever. we're much less than the total
earnings. 1t is substantially certain
that the entire earnings of the Stan
dard from 1887 to 1905 were $3.50,
100000, and possibly much more.
Investment Comparatively Small.
"These enormous profits have been
based on an investment worth at the
time of it's original acquisition not
more than $75,000,000."
In his letter to President Roosevelt
Commissioner Smith says: "The fol
lowing facts are proven: The Stan
dard has not reduced margins during
the period In which 1t has been re
sponsible for the prices of oil. Dur
ing the last eight years covered by
this report (1898 to 1905) 1t has
raised both prices and margins. Its
nomination has not been acquired OF

east, and towns along this liAe will
have stores that can get freight landed
at their doors about as reasonable as
can the Troy merchant. 1t will then
become matter of convenience to
the farmer that will settle the matter,
and Troy must not neglect her oppor-
tunities. Our merchants must not
only make Troy noted for reasonable
prices and good merchandise, but we
must make it possible to get into Troy
easily at all seasons OF the year. We
must fix our roads. Peter Hoidale,
the overseer of this district, is doing
all he can to improve the roads, but
the Reitman hill road will require
something like 5000 to put it in any
thing like decent condition and this
money must be provided before the
work can be done. The county can
probably be induced to give some
thing, as Troy has so far asked for
nothing for road improvement for the
past two and half years.
