SATURDAY EVENING. JULY 6, 1857.

RAIL MAKERS claim an extra SO
ton for rails made according to certain
specifications, under which % per cent.
of the top of the iDgot would be cut off,
eliminating air bubbles and foreign mat
te-. One would infer from this thai
the requirement was new one, adding
an element of waste to the process OF
rail making. But no one suPposes that
the portion of the ingOt cut of would
be total waste. Only q few weeks ago,
vzben the discussion over rail breakings
began, one of the engineering periodicals
CHARGED that the rail makers we're not
cutting off as much from the top OF the
ingots as they had been, and it attributed
the increased breaksges to this dimlnu-
ton in the amount trimmed OF. A
change by the rail makers would account
for the fact that only within a year or a
year and q half have the breaksges become
numerous enough to attract much stten-
tim. The Philadelphia Record says
that the steel rail pool had better make
good rails for $2S or it may occur to the
railroad companies TO join other tariff
reformers in giving foreign rails chance
to get into this country.

Concord, N. H., July 6.-Two of the
most noted alienists in New England

into Mrs. Eddy's condition, as the re
suit Of the suit to force the managers Of
her property TO an accounting, Judge
Chamberlin decided that the inquest
would be more authoritative il conducted
from medical as we'll as a legal stand
point. For this reason he named today as

UPON the advice Of Attorney GeDeral
Bonaparte the President has instructed
the Secretary of Commerce and Labor,
Straus, to have the census bureau make
a special enumeration of the propose
state of Oklahoma, including the present
territory of Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory, for the purpose of determin-
ing the distribution of population among
the subdivisions into which the State
will be divided should the new constitu-
ton be approved at the polls. The ad-
ministration understands that this con-
stitution would be likely to gerrymander
the State favorably to the democrats.
This is amusing. Why there is not 3
State in the Union in which the repub-
leans have controlled in which they
have not resorttd TO the gerrymander
and they would do worse if they thought
it to their advantage.

The HAYWOOD Trial.

Boise, Idaho, July 6.-The Haywood
trial has been delayed today. DEPOSIT
lions on their way from San Francisco
by mail failed to arrive and Attorney
Dsuow, for the defense, sought recess
until Monday. The jurors groaued, bat
Judge Wood declared the request reason
able, and the court room is empty.
The dispositions, fifteen in number,
contradict Harry Orchards story that
he dynamited the Linforth flats with
bomb, either as the agent of the miners
federation or for personal reasons. 1t is
maintained that the explosion was due
to gas leak. The testimony is by
witnesses whom it was impossible to
bring TO Boise.
Attorneys for both prosecution and
defense are preparing motions to be
filed Monday and Tuesday, asking that
most of one another's testimony be
stricken out as improper. This con-
test will be fought out on technical
legal grounds and will be one Of the
bitterest of the trial, effecting, as 1t does,
the most vital issues of the case. Meyer
and Haywood will be witnesses for the
defense when court reconvenes Monday.
The will be the last of the Haywood
witnesses and the prosecution will next

even made by the Croasians.
Notable demonstrations against Hun

towns. The forty Orostisn deputies
WIN marched out of the lower house of
Parliament at Budapest when the rail-
road bill passed having been making @
tour of their native country, making
speeches, Violence has generally at
tended these demonstrations, Hungar-
iaDs officers being the objects of attack.
At Nova Cspella there was a hot
fight between rioters and Gendarmes.
Angry croatins attacked the railway
station intending to expel the Hungsr-
ian officials. The latter barricaded them
selves and held the place until Gendsr-
mes came to their rescue.

Rnnyan. the Ahsconder.

New York, July 6.-Absconding Tel
Ter Chester B. Runyan, of the Windsor
Trust Company, will BIO arraigned in the
Tombs police court today charged with
the theft of 800, 3l7 which disappeared
from the concerns vaults when he van
ished from his Office last Saturday after
noon. While Runysn and Mrs. Carter
are safely in the authorities hands,
where is $25, 900 or so, of the money?
The company's detectives have made a
diligent search of the fiat in which Run
yam WAS found, but not cent has
turned up and Runyan is held, of course,
on a grand larceny charge. From q
most afectionste couple Runyan and
Mrs. Garter have become bitter enemies.
Each accused the other of having hidden
the missing money.
The police found $54, 4l0 In his valise.
For the few odd hundreds he can't ac-
count. Mrs. Carter says Runysn gave
her only $4,000, and that she handed
this back when she learned his identity.
She did not know his name until she
recognized him from pictures in the
newspapers. Her story is that he threat.
ened to kill her when she told him Of
her discovery and that she gave him up
in fear for her life.
Runyan and Mfs, Garter were brought
from the west l25th station to police
headquarters together. They did not
speak to one another during the trip
through the subwsy and Mrs. Carter de-
clared, at headquarters, that she wouldn't
"stoop to talk to man who'd get her
into such trouble"
Runysn held his handkerchief before
his face to conceal his features from
newspaper photographers. Mrs. Carter
showed no such objection.
Both will be photographed by the
police and Runysn's measurement taken
before they are arraigned in court.
Mrs. Carter supplemented her earlier
statements to the police with a story to
the effect that she spent 500 given
her by Ruuyan before she knew the
money was stolen. When she learned |
the truth, she adds, she hesitated whether
to notify the police or Mrs. RunyaD, but
decided in favor of the former through |
fear of violence at the fugitiye's hands.
She processes to have had some money
Of her own in the bank before she met
Runyan and is fearful of its confscation
by the police on the preteuse that it is
he trust compsny's property. Her home,
The says, was formerly in Richmond,
Va.
Runyan, hsndcuffed to Detective Mar
on, sat at headquarters W it'll bowed head
ind refused even to notice questioners.

The Exposition.

Mr.. James NJ. Barr was formally
elected director-general of the James
town Exposition at a meeting of the
board Of directors held yesterday.
This followed The recommendation of
the special committee appointed to re-
port on the ACCESSIBILITY Of change in
the management OF the exposition. Mr.
Bars authority to appoint and remove
employees is absolute. This action of the
directors was expected, but the future
status of the board of governors was in
doubt. The board will be retained in an
advisory capacity only, it being shOrn of
all executive authority. Compensation
of ISIS members is yet uncertain, but it
will be merely nominal, if anything.
Director-General Barr is also given au-
thority to reorganize the departments of
the exposition under as many heads as
he may see fit. After the meeting OF
the directors the stockholders met and
ratified the proposition for the placing
of a second mortgage on the exposition
to secure a second bond issue OF 1926, 900.
This was the first bond issue of $780,
600, will meet all obligations of the ex-
position.
The first issue bonds are being held by
Norfolk banks to secure creditors of the
exposition. One hundred thousand dol
lars is TO be raised Immediately for the
completion of the exposition 10 all its de-
tails. Unpaid subscriptions to common
and preferred stock will be placed TO
secure this, trust company being will
ing to take it as security.

fue Of Sl5, 900 was imposed on the New
York Central Railroad Company in the
federal court, in accordance with tie
conviction of the company for failing TO
lie a tariff schedule as required by
the interstate commerce law. This fine
does the railway company but little harm
but it mulcted the stockholders, who are

EXnerlence of ExcnralOniSts.

Twenty coach loads OF Richmond PEG.
pie, including men, women and children
who went to West Point Thursday morn.
ing to spend the Fourth of July at the
Beach Park resort, got back TO Rich
mond at 4:1O O'Clock yesterday morning.
Three trains carried people to West
Point Thursday from Richmond and
points along the route.
One train of Is coaches left West
Point on the return at 1880 O'Clock
Thursday night. Another was scheduled
to leave for Richmond a. 1920. The
second train did not leave until o'clock
yesterday morning. /: Was not there,
and had to be sent down from Rich
mond.
The night was quite cool, and when il
was found that the second train would
be considerably delayed number of ex-
cursionists, in desperation, attacked
fences and started large bonfres. Around
these meD, women and children were
huddled. In number of instances the
men give up their coats to the women
and children, who wore, in majority of
cases, only their thin summer clothing.
The railroad claims that too many peo-
pie we're taken on at way stations Thurs
day morning, and that the compsDy's
plans were upset. Aha company also
claims that more people could have come
on the earlier train. The fact seems to
remain, however, that the company
failed to provide proper accommodations
for the return of those taken from Rich
mond in the morning.

Mr.. Rockefeller on the stand.

A

be is unable, except In general way,
to furnish the information the fedora
court desires in order 10 render fnal
judgment upon the Standard Oil Com
psny of Indiana, convicted Of criminsl

however, will not satisfy the court, al
1t is contemplated to PROFOUND number
OF questions to him.
To Publishers Press reporter who
got close to Mr.. Rockefeller today the
oil king was -committal when asked
il he was prepared to bare all the secrets
of the Standard Oil Company. III shall
testify along the lines my attorneys have
advised me-" said Mr.. Rockefeller.
"This is no place for an interview"
added Mr.. Rockefeller.
Promptly at 10 O'Clock Rockefeller
and the lesser lights walked across the
street to the Federal building. There
terrible jam of people in the corridors
struggled to gain an entrance to the
courtroom. 1t almost reached The pro-
portions of q riot. Twenty policemen
fought the mob back. The Rockefeller
party was taken into the room through a
private entrance and escaped the mob.
A number of questions we're PROFOUND
ed to Mr.. Rockefeller after he took the
stand, and there was considerable cross
firing among the lawyers. Among them
the following
"Mr. Rockefeller, what we're the div
idends of the Standard Oil Company OF
New Jersey in 1904 and 1902"
81 can't tell exactly"
"Do you know the net earnings 10
those two years?'
~ do not. Perhaps some Of the gen.
tlemen in the room-no doubt some OF
the gentlemen in the room can answer
that question:" said witness Rockefeller
as he swept his arm toward the direction
of the additional witnesses sitting near
by.
"Mr. Rockefeller, are you familiar
with the circumstances surrounding the
organization OF the Standard Oh Com
psny OF New Jersey?'
The court continuing: 81 don't care
for that"
Mr.. Rockefeller subsequently arose
from his seat and looked at his lawyers.
The conrt said "Thaps ALL" and he
oil king returned to the seat among the
lawyers and other officials OF the Stan
dard.
Mr.. O. NJ. Pratt, secretary of the Stan
dsrd Oil Company, OF New Jersey, was
then called to the stand.
John ID. Rockefeller and associates
having completed their testimony, we're
excused and the case continued until
Monday without the passing of sentence
when the defense will be permitted to in
troduce testimony in an effort to show
that the Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey does not control nor own the
Standard Oil Company of Indiana.
If the defense volunteers to put Rock
efeller on the stand Monday it may do so.
This is hardly probably, however. The
oil kings friends refuse TO discuss his
plans as to his further movements.

TO INVESTIGATE THE TROLLY
ACCIDENT,

Mr.. r. G. l.. Moncure, an attorney
for number OF patrons of the W., A..
& FAC. railroad, who we're Injured in
Wednesday accident, has written to the
commission asking that an investigation
be instituted at an early date.
He also requests that he commission
hold session at the Alexandra County
Court House, so that all persons interest
ed who have occasion to use the road
daily may have an opportunity to be
heard,
A meeting OF the officers of the rail-
road company was held yesterday after
noon, and suggestions for improvements
we're made 10 be laid before the board
of directors at a special meeting to be
held in the near future. Vice Presi-
dent Hubbell, general manager of the
railroad, stated that probably the only
change to be made in the signal system
of the company would be to substitute
written orders in place OF oral instruc-
ton.
Col. Joseph E. Willard, member of
the State Corporation Commission, was
asked last night 10 Richmond what ac-
ton the commission was liable to take
relative to the collision on Wednesday,
at which time George T. Waring, OF
Ballston, lost his life.
Col. Willard replied that Immediately
after the commission came into knowl.
edge that there had been an accident on
the road the officials of the Washington,
Arlington and Falls Church line were
requested by telegraph to forward to the
commission report OF the accident and
its causes. The commission will, Col.
Willard said, await the receipt Of this
report before deciding its action.
1t is probable, however, in view of
the fact that the coroner's jury which
investigated the accident blamed the
railroad for the death of Waring, that
an investigation will be made by the
commission.

The British Navy.

London, July 6.-EDglsnds navy is
demoralized. Skeltonized crews manning
huge vessels with insufiiciently trained
men and officers who are book-taught
are given as the reasons for the alarming
state of affairs which ia pictured today 10
Sensational article in the Spectator.
The fact that the Spectators article Is
believed to have been inspired by or at
least to echo the views of Admiral Lord
Beresford, coupled with the attention that
has been recently directed by the public
press to activity of the American navy,
has caused sensation through
out the British empire. The Spectator
described the British feet as fortuitous
concourse of naval atoms, and adds:
sour naval position today is such that
If there should be a sudden declaration
Of war against Germany the situation
would be one OF grave PERIL
Numerous accidents recently to war
ships offer basis for the charges of in
efficiency. Since July, 1906, ten battle
ships, two srmored cruisers, eight I'M
srmored cruisers, FIVE gunbosts, twenty
two tordedo bosts, and three submarines
have met with disasters. Most of the
accidents were collisions, due to the cul-
pable negligence or ineficiency OF Off
GERS and crews.
The policy of the admiralty 10 regu-
lating warships to hsrbor duty alone,
keeping only small crews aboard, 10
order TO cut down naval expenditures,
is blamed for the inefficiency. Neither
officers nor men get the proper training,
it is claimed.
The belief has been growing steadily,
too, that promotion goes by favor, and
the navy, EnglanPs reliance for de-
fence, is drifting into the same state
of consistency which has ruled in the
army. Euglishmen have loath TO believe
this but at last recognize that the boast
ed British navy, glori6ed SIS the greatest
in the world, is far inferior to its paper
pretentions.
So far the Spectator has been the
paper of independent position and it
hiss offered bitter pill for the public to
swallow.
