and Listen to Testimony Regarding
Rebates Alleged to Have Been
Granted to Trust.
New York, Oct. Frank B. Kel
logg, the governments counsel in its
suit to dissolve the Standard Oil CON-
pany, has returned from Washington
where he went Saturday to report
progress in the case to the president
and Attorney General Bonaparte.
The hearing in the case will be re-
sumed Thursday and meantime the
government representatives are going
over such books as the Standard Oil
company has placed at their disposal
and otherwise preparing for a re.
sumption Of the case
The statement was made during the
day that some new evidence regarding
the governments contention that the
present Standard Oil company is
really a reorganization Of the old trust
has been discovered. 1t had been be-
heved that it would be necessary to
call to the stand Henry M. Flagler,
secretary of the old board Of liQuida-
but it Is said that such a course, in
view Of the new evidence, will not
now be pursued.
To Hear Rebate Evidence.
Another examiner, 1t is announced,
will be appointed in few days by
the Missouri court to sit with Exam
liner Ferris in the taking Of testimony
against the New Jersey corporation.
The duties of this additional examiner
will be to listen to testimony relating
only to railroad rates on oil and re-
bates which are alleged to have been
granted to the Standard during It's
fight against independent oil oper-
atOrs. The two examiners will sit to-
gether at every session Of the hear
ings after the question of rates and
rebates is taken up owing to the fact
that much of the testimony will neces.
sar1ly be fragmentary and evidence on
both the rate and trust questions will
be placed upon the record during the
same day.
The hearings here will probably
last at least two and possibly three
more weeks. Testimony will also be
taken in Washington, Cleveland, Chi
cago and St. Louis. This shifting of
base for the hearings is made neces-
sary by the fact that the government
subpoenas can only compel witnesses
to travel 100 miles to attend the hear
ings.

Do you want to laugh? DO you want

really clever and funny entertainments
Well 90 to the Waldorf show. It's good,
it's clever, and it's very, very laughable
from start to finish. You know what
some Of these shows are? Dull, stupid
and vulgar without being amusing, and
lot Of old sticks on the stage who
can neither act nor sing. Once in a
while you strike something that's really
good; where there is both good singing
and histronic ability And THIS Is the
time when the two are combined. 1t is
seldom indeed that on vaudeville stage
you can see such an excellent array Of
really good things. From the rise of the
curtain till the fall it was a rare sue
cess-this new company which started
Monday night. The jokes are new and
clever-tbere is not a stale item on the
bill; and the singing is in every instance
away above the class usually heard at a
vaudeville houses.

Russia totaled 10000 rifles and several
million roubles worth of ammunition.
All this war material came from Ger

The size Of the shipment, the paper says,

The Doctor Away From Home When
Most Needed.

People are often very much disap-
pointed to find that their family ply.
sician is away from home when they
most need his services. Diseases like
cramp collie and cholera morbus require
prompt treatment, and have in many
instances proven fatal before medicine
could be procured or a physician sum
moned. The right way is to keep at
hand a bottle of Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. No
physician can prescribe better midicine
for these diseases, By having it in the
house you escape much pain and suffer-
ing and all risk. Buy it now; it may
save life. For sale by Frank Hart and
