Great Crush in Court Room to Hear
Evidence of Star Witness in Mur-
der Trial-Women Join Thronss to
Hear and See Mrs. Rice-Attorn.y.
Get Into WransIe.

Omaha, Dec. 3.-When the noon adj
journment was taken in the trial of
Charles e. Davis, for the murder Of
DR.. Rustin, it was necessary for four
retired, so great was the crush. No less
than 100 women edged their way into
the room during the morning session.
They were present to see and hear
Mrs. Abbie Rice, the star witness for
the prosecution, and were rewarded for
their effort when the state placed her
on the stand. Her testimony was given
in the frank manner which heretofore
characterized her effort to tell the story
of her acquaintance with the dead
physician. She never faltered in telling
of the thrilling events of their six
months of almost constant companion
ship.
Mrs. Rice, on assuming the stand,
at once went into the history of her
early life and quickly came to the point
where she formed Rustin's acquaint-
ance.
She told of calling him to the public
house of Grace Walton to perform an
operation for organic disease, which
was her first acquaintance with him.
Following her recovery she left the
! Walton house and went to a hotel
where, she testified, Rustin paid her
expenses.
"I was at Rustins office nearly every
day." said Mrs. Rice" and many cred
| itors called to collect their bills which
he usually was unable to meet"
! Thirty days prior to the shooting OF
Rustin did you observe any marked
change in his condition, his demeanor
! or in his habit?' inquired DR.. Eng
/ lish. The question was objected to and
the court recessed until 2 o'clock when
each side was given a haf-hour to-
/ present its authorities.

New York, Dec. 3.-When the hear.
ing in the governments suit to dissolve
the Standard Oil company was re-
sumed today, John D. Archbold, vice
president of the company testified that
the STANDARD purchased the Pacific
Coast Oil company of California, in
1900, for s761,OOO. After that its capt.
talization was increased by successive
stages to $4,000, 900 in 1906, when it
changed to the Standard Oil company
of California.
Archbold said as far as he knew the
Texas Oil company was not owned or
controlled by the Standard. The Texas
company sold some of its output, wit
ness said. to the Standard. Archbolds
attention was called to the cost the
refineries put into thei trust in 1sS2
which was $l70O0,00O This was the in
ventory value. said Archbold, who was
then asked II the exhibits of defense
showing Gle COSl Ol lIle TellueTleS III
1906 to be S7ooo,ooo were not gross
costs insteadof costs less depreciation.
Archbold said it might have been an
error in bookkeeping, whereupon ac-
countants for both sides began an ex-
animation of the exhibit.
kellogg requested Archbold to make
an examination Of the exhibits at some
time today and have the question of
the cost of refineries cleared up. Kel-
logg desired to know if it was not a
fact that in 1871. before the Standard
was formed, ths percentage of export
of refined oil to crude productions was
not greater thar today, when it is only
1S per cent.

bold said the .uties in Russia were

them. Kellogg asked what were the

"All this talk of favoritism to the
Standard by the ,ariff is bosh."

HEARING ON WOOL
Prominent Representatives of National
Wool Growers Association Before
House Ways and Means Committee
to Araue for Protective Duty.

Washington, Dec. 3.-The hearing on
wool and wool products, was continued
before the house ways and means COM
mittee today. Representatives of the
National Wool Growers association,
which it is claimed includes seventy
five per cent of the wool growers of the
United States, addressed the commit
tee. The organization has been prom
inently identified with the movement
for a protective duty, and while its rep
resentatives did not ask for an increase
in the duties on wool, they requested
continuation of the present sched-
| ule.
Representatives of the wool
pulling industry appeared ana
asked for an increase OIL loui
cents in the differential IN duties
on wool, fleece and wool on the SKIN
The former now pays a tariff OF eleven
cents per pound, and the latter ten. l'ne
first advocate of a reduction in the tar
iff on wool was Andrew j. Lois, an I'M
porter commission merchant OF Bos-
ton. He said that the purpose OF the
protective tariff is that of increasing
production, not prices. "Under tne
Dinelev law" he says, wool produc-
ton has decreased, and this law IS
therefore a failure so far as protsuc-
fion is concerned. Are we prote"sAkIis
labor against foreign labor cost, or are
we protecting the wool manufacturer,
pocketbook?" Lolis claimed that ne
knew of the existence of a 'wooleh
trust" and said the duty was too great
on the finished product of wool he
decided that reduction of three cents
per pound on wool was sane COM
pensatory reduction on manufactured
articles Of wool.
