Mr.. Milburn interposed and said
that he did not recognize that the
Corsicana Company was a competing
company. ~
Mr.. Tilford was closely pressed by
Mr.. Kellogg as to whether tbs Stand

any interests in Texas or received
any dividends from any company op-
Grating there. Mr.. Tilford said that
to his knowledge the Standard did
