Standard Oil Tricks
Exposed to the Light

The governments counsel further de-
veloped that the Unionville pipes OF
the National Transit Company carry
ing oil from Olean, N. Y, and other
western points, connected with the
pipe line Of the Standard Oil Com
pany Of New Jersey, and that at the
center of the bridge pipe line carry
ing oils of the Eureka Pipe Line
Company, the Buckeye Pipe Line
Company, the Southern Pennsyl
vania Pipe Line Company, and the
National Transit Company from
Lima, Ohio, to the seaboard, con-
meets with the pipe line of the Stand
ard Oil Company of New Jersey.
Payne said that as the lines of these
companies ended at Unionville and
the center of the bridge, tariff sched-
ules are all fixed for those points.
Kellogg sought to show that inde-
pendent companies could not send oil
to the seaboard over these lines be-
cause rates could not be obtained
from points to the seaboard Kel-
logg said the Standard would not
publish rates on its pipe lines
through New Jersey and as conse-
quence Independents were shut out
from tidewater.

FRIENDS READY TO
RELEASE MURDERER

CHICAGO, Sept. 25.-It is report
ed that if Frank J. Constantine,
murderer of Mrs. Louis e. Gentry
had been given the death penalty. he
would have been rescued by members
of secret society. This was the
startling revelation made by the po-
lice today to Judge Kavanagh Ac-
cording to the report, there were 200
members of this society in and near
the couft-room when the verdict was
read, and they were prepared to
make desperate attempt to over
power the deputy sheriffs and save
Constantine If the death penalty had
been imposed
This sensational discovery by the
police follows closely on the heels of
the escape of two men from jail. The
instruments by means of which the
escape was effected are believed to
have been for Constantine's use, but
the plot was frustrated by the pris-
oners removal to another cell
Acting on the advice of his at
torneys, Constantine will not insist
on new trial. being satisfied to let
well enough alone.

miner ENTOMBED
FOR five DAYS

NEVADA CITY, CAL, Sept. u.s.
For fve days aged John Chambers
lay entombed in a tunnel near
lleghapy, where he had dreamed of
liking il rich. He was rescued in
dying condition yesterday and ex-
pired soon after being removed to
the outer air. He was the victim of
"a stroke of paralysis.
Chambers disappeared FIVE days
ago. 1t was thought he had gone tic
Forest City. Yesterday, when it was
ascertained that he was not there.
John Crosetti made his way into the
tunnel and there found the prospec-
tor lying face downward in an un-
conscious condition. Help was
quickly summoned and the dying
man removed to the bright sunshine.
But he was past all earthly help and
soon died.
Chambers was one of the early
miners in the upper country. He was
born at the Bay of Fundy sixty-seven
years ago. After locating at the
mines he changed his name for some
unknown reason to John Nelson Dill
Ion, and it was by this name that he
was best known. Indeed, few knew
but that was his true name, He
made fortune and lost it in specu-
lating. At the time of his death he
owned several valuable claims. He

WRONGED MANS
HORRIBLE REvENGE.


ROME, Sept. 25.-The bell-ringer
of a small village named Mallabergo
has just taken a diabolical revenge
upon the betrayer of his wife. The
husband was proceeding to ring the
bell for the service as usual when in
the garrett in the belfry he came upon
his wife and her lover.
The lover was the parson of the
church.
The wife managed to escape, but
the parson was not SO fortunate.
Taking advantage OF his bewilder-
ment, the bell-ringer seized him and
tied him by the neck to the clapper
of the principal bell. Then the
wronged husband commenced to
chime the bell furiously with the re-
suit that almost every bone in the
parsons body was broken.
Just at this, time the congregation
commenced to enter the church and
the blood of the murdered man
streamed down upon them from the
belfry as they came in the door. \
Completely Mortified by the sight,
they rushed up stairs and found the
bell ringer still pursuing his fiendish
work.
The church was at once closed and
the murderer arrested.

BEAUTY DOCTOR
UP AGAINST SUIT

Los ANGELES, Sept. 25-Mrs. r.
c. Haywood. a wealthy woman who
spends her winters in Pasadena, and
who is now at her home in Berkeley.
invested $1O0 in beauty bandage,
which she claims destroyed her
beauty.
Mrs. Haywood has brought suit
against firm of Los Angeles der
matologists for $4,000 damages. The
defendants named in the suit are
Mrs. Ella Harris, her son, John T.
Harris, and her son-in-law and
daughter, Mr.. and Mrs. Lionel Hare.
Mrs. Harris and her SON have a place
of business on South Broadway.
Two years ago Mrs. Haywood
claims she had her face treated. The
price for removing her wrinkles was
fixed at 500.
The treatment was as follows:
Mrs. Harris bandaged her customers
face by passing the cloth over her
head and under her jaw. This was
drawn tight and massage was admin
istered. Mrs. Haywood's instructions
were to talk without moving the
lower jaw and to take nourishment
that did not require maxillary ac-
tion.
Mrs. Harris says she will be ready
to show that her customer disturbed
the bandage with much eating and
talking.

RoosEvELT's PRERoGATivE.

There IL a vast deal being said In
the press OF the country lately about
the Roosevelt influence In the matter
81 choosing his successor In the pres
idency. It is all stuff and nonsense 70
say that the President Is not profound
ly interested in the character and per-
sonality OF the man who shall take up
the exalted gift he may lay down. He
would not be the man we all know him
TO be II he were not only interested
but deeply anxious about II. He has
not run the gamut OF criticism and ex-
perience that has been his without
creating dear and jealous regard tor
the perpetuation of his own splendid
policies and plans. To expect less Is to
dispsrage the man: but. that he win so
out into the open and peremptorily
dictate the man, Is too un-American,
He may signify his desires at the pro-
pitious moment, and digniaedly de-
clare his preference as he has the un-
questioned right to do as citizen, and
as many a President has done before
him.
/ 1t goes without saying that his ad-
vice In so grave matter would be OF
immense value and would be received
with profound respect by the people
AZ large: but the American electorate
is jealous body and will yield none
Of its prerogatives to its president
nor any one else; and the nearest II
twill ever come to doing such t1ing,

cause, for the time being, he Is with

PAsco TO ASTORIA
1t has come to pass.

1t has come to pass.
The Astoria G. Columbia River Rail-
road has become Hill property, and
will soon be merged into the railway
system styled, (rather oddly), the
Portland g. Seattle Railway; though
for the time being 1t will maintain its
Independent character, with the presi-
dent of the last named company as
its president, Charles M. Levey, yes
trday invested with that office. The
main fact is that the A. & C. is part
and parcel Of big water-level trans
portation scheme stretching from the
mouth Of the Snake River at Pasco,
on the western marge of the vast grain
fields Of the Northwest, to the sea
gates at Astoria; and this fact Is the
vital impulse that is to make for the
commercial supremacy Of this port in
the grain carriage Of this tremendous
territory, for all time to come.

and he will see to its fufillment, all in
