STANDARD TRIED
TO AVOID LAW in
EASTERN STATES
Associated Press.

New York, September 25.-Interest-
ing evidence showing how the Stand
ard Oil Company avoided publishing
its tariffs under the Elkins law was
given today by Calvin NJ. Payne, vice
president of the National Transit
Company, and prominent character
in New York financial affairs. In
telling of the pipe line over which he
had supervision, Payne said that the
tariffs for transportation of oil were
fixed at Unionville on the state line
between New York and New Jersey
and at Center Beach, which is ON the
New Jersey and Pennsylvania state
line. MIR. Payne said that Unionville
came into existence in 1906 when the
Hepburn bill, which provides that
common carriers shall publish their
tariffs, became law.
1t also developed during the hear
ing that at these points several pipe
lines Of different companies-all con
trolled by the Standard Oil Company
had their meeting point.
The government sought to show in
its evidence today that the oil trust
had endeavored to avoid publishing
rates on its pipe lines in New Jersey.

Jackson, Miss, September 25.-
There were twelve bidders for the
100000 of waterworks bonds sold
today. The bonds were sold to Rol-
Inns & Son, of Chicago, for a pre-
MUM of $20,0SS. This is regarded as
one of the best bond sales made by
any city this year and beats the re-
cent sale of New York city securities.
Rollins & Son, Of Chicago, have
bought some school house and other
bonds of the city before and were
eager for this issue. There were two
bids in for $4,000 premium and only
one bid received was for below par.
The bonds are twenty year bonds and
will be used to purchase the water
works, which the city expects to take
over next month. The s20,0SS prem
ium will be used for improving the
plant.
