coroner's law and -vetoing the same
was reread for consideration.
Wills eApldIIibu LndI the Dill was
amended in the House after being re-
ported on by the Police committee and
was further tinkered at by the Senate.
If the Senate spoiled it he would like
to know it and asked for the Senate
report.
Correa said that the law was one
which ought to stand on the statute
book. The present bill, however, had
been mangled by the Judiciary com
mittee of the Senate, who had amend
ed the body of the bill and left the
faulty. In concurring with the Senate
amendment the bill was not read in
full in the House. The veto Of the
Governor was proper and should be
sustained, but similar bill should be
again sent up for signature without
the dIsqualiIying features.
The veto was sustained by a unan-
imous vote.
THE BILL RE-ENACTED.
Correa then presented another SINH

After Alton Now.
A dispatch from Chicago says that
preparations for the second federal in
quiry into the relations between the
Standard Oil Company of Indiana and
the Chicago and Alton railroad, order
ed by Judge X M. Lands, began
there. The call for the special grand
jury was issued, and United States
District Attorney Sims went over all
the evidence presented at the recent
trial of the Standard Oil Company of
Indiana, which resulted in conviction
and fine of $29,240,O0O, and selected
the witnesses to be subpoenaed.
1t developed that the reason for
haste In this investigation is that the
statute Of limitations is running
against the government, and the Chi
cago and Alton will escape indictment
on between 80 and 400 counts of the
1,462 on which the Standard OIL com
pany was convicted The statute of
limitations bars prosecution on offenses
committed more than three years be-
fore indictment. Not only. will Dis
trict Attorney Sims proceed against
the Alton railroad as corporation,
but he will also direct an investigation
of the individuals who were parties to
the scheme by which the Standard Oil
Company of Indiana secured the trans
portation of its products at less than
one-third the legal rate.
The charge to be made against these
men is conspiracy to violate general
law, known as section $40 of the re-
vised statutes of the United States.

offense is fine of $4,000 or a SEN

Serum Is Effective In Three Cases,
and Doctor Says That One of Worst
Diseases In Human Calendar Has
Been Conquered.
Cleveland, o., Aug. 6.--According to
private advices received from New
York and Castalia, o., the wealth of
John D. Rockefeller has made possible
the cure of meningitis.
Dr. Simon Flexner of New York, it is
said, has discovered serum which
will cure the heretofore fatal disease.
Experiments made at Castalia have
demonstrated the efficacy of the serum.
DR.. Flexner is at the head of the
Rockefeller Institute For Medical Re
search in New York. He will return
from Europe in a few days and is then
expected to announce his discovery
through the proper medical channels.
Much of the credit for the successful
use of the serum will fall upon Cleve-
land man. DIR. George t. Ladd, con-
nected with the Lakeside hospital and
Western Reserve Medical college,
checked an epidemic of the disease in
Castalia, O., last spring. Since then
physicians there and DIR. Laid have
been in almost constant communication
with DR.. Flexner, who has been watch
ing the experiments. The results there
were remarkable, the doctors say.
Cures have been effected in three cases.
Cure of Three Cases.
Nineteen persons caught the disease
in Castalia. Three were subjected to
ordinary fever treatment when they ex-
hibited the first symptoms. AS soon
as it became evident that the attack
was general the physicians of the vii
lage sent out an appeal for help DR..
Ladd had been a close student of the
experiments of DR.. Flexner and sent
for the serum. When 1t came he went
to Castalia and applied it in three
cases, that of a man twenty three years
old, girl of sixteen and a boy of
eight. The girls case was one of the
worst in the list.
Not one of the three cases in which
the serum had been tried was lost. All
the patients are now recovering.
at was most remarkable recov-
cry" said DR.. S. Gorsuch of Castalia.
mot one of the patients could have
possibly got well. The girl was one of
the first attacked and was almost dead
when the serum was applied. No one
thought she would recover. Yet now
she Is getting well.
I'VE doctors here have said nothing
about the matter because of the fact
that the cases were of an experimental
nature. We have kept DR.. Flexner in
constant touch with the. progress of the
patients and feel that the experiments
have demonstrated absolutely that the
serum will cure meningitis. One of
the worst diseases in the human cal
endar has been conquered without
doubt"

Extreme Penalty Imposed Upon
Rockefeller Monopoly.
STANDARDS BoAsToIs FALSE
Report to President Roosevelt by Com
missioner of Corporations Shows That
Trust Makes Use of underhand Meth
ods-Net Earnings $7eo,Qoo,ooo.

Washington, Aug 6.-Following hard
on the smashing blow delivered to the
Standard Oil company at Chicago,
when Judge Lands in the United
nopoly $29,240,000 for the accept
ance of illegal rebates, the government
made public a crushing array of fig
ures gathered by Herbert Knox Smith,
the commissioner of corporations.
These figures show:
First.-That the vast Rockefeller
monopoly since 1882 has paid out $685.
600, 000-more than half a billion-in
dividends, all the time pilfng up, in
addition, surplus which as long ago
as 1896 had aggregated nearly $780,
100000 and has since grown to un-
known proportions.
Second.-That the oft repeated boast
of the Standard that it had reduced the
price of oil and thus had been of bene-
fit to the consumer is false now and al
ways has been false
The present report of Commissioner
Smith is supplemental to his two pre-
vious reports, which dealt chiefly with
the methods used by the Standard, the
dominant factor in the industry, to Sc
cure and maintain that domination
and described the character and extent
of its control. The present report sets
forth the results of such methods and
their effect on the consumer and on
the profits of the Standard Oil COM
pany.
How Margin of Profit Grew.
''The Standard" says Commissioner
Smith. has consistently used its pow
er to raise the price of oil during the
last ten years, not only absolutely, but
also relatively to the cost of crude OIL"
The commissioner shows the profits
on Illuminating Oil to have advanced
per gallon as follows: September, 1897,
to December, 1890, $40 cents; from
1900 to 1902, cents; from 1908 to
June, 1905, 6 $40 cents.
This was an increase in profit Of
l $40 cents per gallon in eight years.
when it is remembered says the
| commissioner, "that from seven-tenths
OF cent to cent per gallon const1-
tutes a good profit, the meaning of an
increase of / $40 cents is evident"
A much greater increase in profits, he
shows, has taken place in the case of
the Standards byproducts, such as gas
oline, lnbricating oil and paraffin wax.
Averaging them up into illuminating
oil, the net increase in the profit per
gallon from 1897 to June, 1905, was
$40 cents.
Enormous Profits.
The tremendous Importance of these
increases in the margins is appreciat-
ed only after considering the enormous
output of the Standard. For instance,
an increase in margin of 2 cents gal
Ion, such as took place from 1898 to
1904, meant, even after allowing an
