Says Oil Trust Would Kill Rivals

NEW YORK, July 1s.-Charges were
made in the United States circuit court ves-
terday by Henry A. Powell, representing
Preston d Davis, Brooklyn Oil firm that
the Standard OIL Company was endeavor-
ing. by unfair methods, to force his clients
out of business. Mr.. Powell said that his
clients were the principal competitor of the
Standard OIL Company in Brooklyn. The
charges were out. rowth Of an argument
on an application Of the Delaware. Lacka-
wanna and Western railroad. against Pres
ton & Davis and the United States inter
state commerce commission to restrain
them from enforcing an order of the COM
mission directing the railroad to deliver to
them oil shipped to them from Independent
oil concerns In Pennsylvania. Counsel for
Preston d Davis alleges that the Lacka-
wanna road formerly made such delivery,
but discontinued 1t as the result of a trunk
line agreement and at the request of the
Standard OIL Company when Preston &
Davis began to purchase oil from independ-
ent concerns.

PROF. HEILPRIN's DEATH.
Eminent Scientist Succumbed to Tropi-

cal Fever-Mount Pelee Incident.
PHILADELPHIA, July 1s.-Prof Angelo
Heilprin, the noted scientist who made his
home in this city, died yesterday at the
home Of his sister, Mrs Adolph Loveman,
Central Park west. He had been iii for
eight weeks with tropical~slVer he con-
tracted in South America some years ago.
He was fifty-foaT years Of age and a bache-
lor,
Angelo Heilprin was born in Satoralja-
Ujhely. Hungary, March 81. 1853. When
he was three years old his parents moved
to this country. He was educated In Eu-
rope and made a special study Of natural
history. He was successfully professor of
invertebrate paleontology and geology from
1880 to 1900 and executive curator from
1888 to 1892 at the Academy Of Natural
Sciences in Philadelphia.
He was for five years president of the
Geographical Society of Philadelphia and
was leader Of the Peary relief expedition
in 1892. He was one Of the foremost au-
thorities on geology in this country, and
had written many books on the subject.
Prof. Heilprin made his most famous
scientific investigation at the eruption of
Mount Vesuvius, in 1895, and Of Mont
Pelee. Martinique. in 1902, when. May 20 of
that year. he assembled the volcano under
great danger as the eruption was then
rived at the edge Of the summit crater at
1870, and remained there for four hours.
When he descended he resembled a statue
Of mud. The weight Of ashes and mud he
carried on his person, the horrible atmos-
phere he breathed and the fearful difficulty
he encountered reduced him to condition
of extreme fatigue, Notwithstanding the
fact that he assembled Mont Pelee from
the most accessible and easiest side.
April % Prof. Heilprin was made an off,
Ger of the French Academic, and was like
wise awarded the Elisha Kent Kane medal
IN 1903 at the Philadelphia Geographical
Society His books, Mont Pelee and the
Tragedy at Martinique and 1.-The Tower of
Peiee,' brought him into prominence among
the worlds scientific men

LABOR NEWS NOTES.

In bulletin issued by the American
Federation of Labor appear the following
statements concerning organized labor:
Toilers. organize. Let carry on the
good work, and in few more revolutions
of the earth upon Its axis we shall have a
better world-a better mankind. Waiting
will not accomplish 1t; deferring till another
time will not secure 1t. Now Is the time
for the workers of America to come to the
standard of their unions and to organize
as thoroughly, completely and compactly
as is possible. Let each worker bear in
MIND the words of Longfellow:
In the worlds broad field of battle
In the bivOuac of life,
Be not like dumb driven cattle!
Be hero in the strife!
II look to the trades unions as the prin-
cipal means for benefiting the condition of
the working classes. '-Thorold Rogers, pro-
fessor of political economy, University of
Oxford
Organized labor is welding an influence
upon every public question never attained
before. The worlds thinkers are now be-
ginning to appreciate the fact that the de-
mands Of labor mean more than appears
on the surface. They see that the demand
1or' work Is not alone one for the preserva-
ton of life in the individual, but is a
human, innate right; that the movement to
ieuuCe tlle hours OF TABOR is not sought to
shlrk the duty to toll, but the humane
means by which the voorhees, workers may
find the road to employment, and that the
millions of hours of increased leisure to the
overtasked workers signify millions of
golden opportunities for tightening the bur
dans of the masses, to make the homes
more cheerful, the hearts of the people
lighter, their hopes and aspirations nobler
and broader.
Capital is the fruit of labor and could
not exist If labor had not first existed
Labor therefore deserves much the higher
ration-'-Abraham Lincoln.
Let us concentrate our efforts to organize
all the forces of wage labor and, within the
ranks, contest fairly and openly for the diff
ferent views which may be entertained
upon the different steps to be taken to
move the grand army of labor onward and
forward In no organization on earth is
there such liberation so great a scope and
so free forum inside the ranks Of the
American Federation of Labor, and no.
where Is there such a fair opportunity af-
forded for the advocacy Of a new or
brighter thought.
L rejoice at every effort workingmen
make to organize. 1 hail the labor
movement. 1t is my only hope for de-
mocracy. Organize, and stand to-
sether Let the nation hear united de-
mand from the laboring voice. Wendell
Phillips.

body, which regulates with despotic power
his hours and wages, and imposes such
taxes and rules upon him as 1t chooses.
This might not be so Objectionable If the
union stood only for a square deal. the In
volatility of contracts, just compensation,
reasonable hours. higher efficiency, greater
opportunity, a graded wage scale, adjusted.
as in other fields of activity, so that
each is rewarded according 10 MS
skill and industry.
but does the union stand for any or all
of these things? AS now organized and
controlled, most of them are absolutely
against all except ever-increasing wages
to the inefficient and shorter hours. 1t Is
notorious fact that the power or the
unions in the building trades has reased.
the Industrious active and skillful mechanic
has been reduced to the level of the In
doent. unskillful and inefficient. BY the
enforcement of harsh and senseless rules,
much of the time for which the employer
has paid has been wasted and the cost
of construction unnecessarily increased,
without any compensating advantages to
the laborer, his employer or the general
public. So lost to all sense of justice have
some of these organizations become that
by limiting partly or wholly the number of
apprentices, they have closed the door or
opportunity in some trades to American
boys, their own sons included.
A Dangerous Attack.
What American father who loves his
flag and values his birthright can stand
for this outrage upon American boys. this
blow at American citizenship, this bold and
dangerous attack upon the rights and liber-
ties of our people? No such anti-American,
unjust and harmful principles, outside of
the ranks of anarchists, have ever before
been allowed to take root upon American
soil 1t is high time that the public puts
its stamp of disapproval upon the abuses
of these organizations and that laws ade-
quate for their correction be enacted, or en-
forced If they already exist. Whenever and
wherever the unions stand only for justice,
protection against wrong, reasonable hours,
just compensation. higher efficiency, and
equal opportunity to all. they will have my
earnest approval and support. But as most
of them are now constituted and controlled
l am in favor of all lawful means for cur
failing their power to impose upon their
own members and the general public.
I'm all proper efforts to accomplish this
end you will have the sympathy of all
right-minded men, including, 1 believe,
large majority Of the members of the labor
organizations who are tired of the tyranny
and injustice of their leaders. Until the
unreasonable power now exercised, without
proper authority, by these blind and reck-
less men is broken, no permanent prosperity
in the building trades can be reasonably
expected. Yours very truly,
GEO. TRUESDELL."
