Kellogg uncovered what ne bel 20
be one OF the Standard OiTs tricks OF
trade IN the contracts with railroads for
lubricating OIL. II was provided that
whenever the price Of Franklir crude
oil fell, corresponding decrease would
be made in the lubricating oil. The
witness admitted that he never heard
OF such a reduction being made in the
last fourteen years.
Franklin, Pa, is the home Of the
Galena Company ard the witness said
the provision was made because Frank.
lin crnde OIL was the base OF Galena
lubrica-ing oil.
Kellogg then showed that the annual
sale Of Galena lubricating oil is about
10000 barrels. while the Franklin field
n oduces only 1890 barrels. In this way
re left the impression that the contract
provision was only for show, and thar

wave and had not been swamped by submarine
earthquake. the captain had reported.
The much talked of incident occurred at SA5
o'clock on the night of February g. when the
steamer was running along slowly in smooth sea
about 80 miles off the coast of Southern Brazil.
The night was clear and gentle breeze was
blowing from the north. George Strasburg. the
lookout forsook his place in the crows nest be
cause the night fine, and placed his watch
on the forecaste head; He heard suddenly
a roar and saw dead ahead a huge wave rolling for
the steamer. He had no time TO retreat and
crouched behind the bTeakwateT. The comber,
which curled fifteen feet above the stern, washed
Strasburg from his refuge, twisted him around Il
stanchiOn il he piece Of rope. broke his
leg ana Injured him internally. The big sea broke
on deck forcing the steamers nose below the sur
face and rushing aft over the superstructuTe,
righted her almost quickly as II had submerged

Chief Officer Brown, who was reading In his
bunk when the wave came. said the sensation was
as II the steamer had poked her stem into big
hole and was going down bow nrst.
Captain Tmmis and the chief officer believe the
wave was caused by submarine disturbance.
