SA9O,315,D34 i'm Seven Years.
The hearing before Special Federal
Referee Terriss of Missouri in the gov
ernment suit to dissolve the great oil com
bination was hegun at New York, with
Attorney Frank Il. Kellogg representing
the government and John G.. Milburn and
Others as counsel for the Standard Oil
Company. Mr.. Kellogg submitted in evil
dence statistics compiled by the STANDARD
Oil o~9icials, showing that tho Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey had earned
profits in the last seven years aggregat-
ing $490,315,934. and that during the
same time dividends had been paid to the
amount of $30S, 359,4o3. These profits
came from the plants owned by the parent
company. as well as from those of the
subsidiaries controlled by it. This was
the first time in the history of the oil
trust that a record of it's earnings entire
had been made public. Acting Controller
Fay of the Standard said there were
nineteen subsidiary companies, and gave
their names. The evidence Is being taken
for use in the Circuit Court at St. Louis,
where the dissolution suit, under the
antitrust law. is TO be prosecuted. Mr.
Kellogg, among other things, wanted the
company TO produce the minutes of the
various meetings at which the absorption
of smaller companies was arranged, but
the counse for the company was inclined
to resist.
The examination Of Charles NJ. Pratt.
secretary of the trust, brought out tina
fact that the parent company had trans
ferred its $4,000, 900 holdings in the
Waters-P Pierce Oil Company of Texas to
a son-in-law of Vice President Archbold
from 1904 to 1907, during the custer pro-
ceedings brought against the subsidiary
| By the State Of Texas, and that only
$l25,00O in cash was paid for the stocks,
the remainder beng in the form of a note
which was never fully taken up, the prof
its of the Waters-Pierce company going
toward the payment of the note. Mfr.
Pratt admitted that this transaction did
| not appear on the books of the Standard.
the accounts being kept under the title,
{. Nj. Pratt Investment" Mr.. Pratt
explained that by this arrangement he
held the stocks for the trust merely as a
convenience, and when asked If it WAS
not done to avoid the antitrust laws of
Texas he replied, Not that I know Of"
Tabulations were also verified showing
enormous earnings of subsidiaries, among
which those of the Standard Oil Company
of Indiana appeared most remarkable.
This corporation on q capitalization Of
81, 100000 made profits in 1906 amount
ing to S1O,51G, OS2, and last year paid to
the parent company $4,495,50O. This
amounted for at least one year to the re-
%markablc profit of 1000 per cent. Mr..
Kellogg also brought out evidence show
ing how the New York branch had been
Systematically drained by saddling upon
it enormous liabilities at the same time
that it's assets were. greatly increased.
Counsel Milburn disclosed one line Of de-
Tense by giving notice that the trust
would object to any testimony bearing
upon acts committed prior to July 2,
1890, when the Sherman law went into
effect.

BACON AND Eaas a FAvcR1rE.

Food Expert. On IayestigatinS, Also
Efnas Demand for Cheese.
Tel me what Il man eats said
Goethe, land | win tell you what he
So This is true as well of nations.
Food plays such a prominent role in
human life and is such Il mighty fac
tor in human existence that the views
of q. G. Notter, an expert in ma: SIS
of food, on the favorite dishes OF New
Workers are interesting, says the New
YORK World. Mr.. Notter is ut present
preparing IL report for the government
en- the cheese industry liz the United
States and it is his o~lsinion that the
Americans. next to the French and the
Swiss, will becoin9 The greatest cheese
manufacturers AMI cheese caters in the
| world.
IN a great cosmopolitan city like
New York said MIR. Notter, every
home has its own cuisine-American,
Frepch, German. Italian or Hungarian,
as the case may be. But in no other
city of the United States do foreigners
become 50 quickly Americanized; and
American ideas are quickly absorbed
and assimilated in every home what
ever the original nationality may be.
The most favored dishes of New York
ers | find are cereals, vegetables, ham,
bacon. eggs. fruit and cheese. Poul-
try and game. while popular, cannot
always be afforded by the masses, ex-
cept occasionally on a Sunday or holt
day, when chicken or turkey will APP
pear on the table. If l were to pick
out one favorite dish ! would give the
preference to bacon and eggs.
"Iu the big hotels and restaurants it
is different, however. Nearly every ho-
tel and restaurant has It's specially,
which is the combined work of the
chefs and stewards. who are always
trying to find something different. 1
remember some time ago when Mr..
Won Arnim was the steward of the Wal
Gorf-Astoria. he spoke to me about a
dinner party that he had to prepare,
and he did not have the least idea of
where he was going to get all the spe-
cialties which Oscar Tschirky had put
on the elaborate menu. 1t was in Feb
uary. and among the dishes on the
menu was Argeneil asparagus. MI.
Tscilirky eabled to Paris for this yege-
table ana it was received in time for
the banquet.
Another dish which is becoming very
popular is e;:=:ar, but fresh caviar is
very expensive and only prominent ho-
tells and restaurants will serve it at
prices varying from 81 to $1.5O a por-
ton.
Cheese. especially creamy cheese,
has become a most favorite food with
the masses. because people have be-
gt,a TO recognize its %nourishing quail
ties.
Among the vegetables the potato Is
still king. and will no doubt remain so
for j long time. Peas. string beans,
turnips. rice and artichokes are also
fayorites. and endive, a Belgian vege-
fable much used IS q salad. Is also
coming to the front. This vegetable
WAS practically unknown here UP to a
few years ago
Mr. Notter added that while Paris,
London. Berlin and Vienna have some
excellent restaurants, New York Is the
place to get a square meal, and, as for
cooking and service, this city stands
unsurpassed.
