st. Louis, April eff combinations
to continue unchecked, in time Am
erican citizens will be excluded from
engaging in any enterprise. and all of
your children will be wage earners,
and mere employees of corporations
controlled by few" declared Trust
buster Kellogg today in resuming
argument in the governments suit for
dissolution OF the Standard oil.
Kellogg analyzed the Sherman act,
saying 1t prohibited the formation of
such companies as the Standard oil.
The Standard oil attorneys today
filed their brief outlining the conten-
tions of the defense.
The brief declares that size does
not constitute monopoly, even If 1t in
wolves exclusive control, unless such
control Is the result OF conspiracy or
combination in the restraint Of trade,
and. says there is no similarity be-
tween the present case and that Of
Northern Securities company or Am
erican tobacco company which are
cited by the government, which sets
forth those cases were instances of
combination of diverse interests
while the Standard oil is a combi-
nation Of previously similar interests.
Large Profits of Standard Oil.
Mr.. Kellogg told of the wonderful
profits of the Standard. For the ten
years ending with 1906 the concern
had earned. he asserted, the comfort
able sum of 59S,226,525 upon a cap
italization of $97,25O,0OO,
The Standard trust and the stand
ard OIL company had paid dividends
of s54S,436,446 between 1882 and
1906.
"And yet" exclaimed Mr.. Kellogg,
"Mr. Rockefeller, while on the wit
ness stand, talked of the hazard of
the business
That the defendants profits had
averaged about cents a gallon for
10 years was another Of Mr. Kellogg's
assertions.
Independent Companies.
Inc only place Wnere OIL is Cnedp
is where Independents sell it," said
Mr.. Kellogg "and II this court gives
the Standard OIL company carte |
blanche to do as 1t pleases. there
would not be an Independent COM
pany in this country in two years"
The state line terminals between
New York. Pennsylvania and New |
Jersey, Mr.. Kellogg insisted. had been !
so arranged that common carriage
by independent shippers was impos-
sible. One pipe line was cited which |
cost according to the Standard OIL
company's books, $4,000 to construct
and II was earning an annual divi-
dent OF a million and a quarter dol
lars.
Facts Against Standard Oil.
Kellogg said that the only remedy
for the evil IL the dissolution of the
combination. He declared that the
rebates 10 more than any other cause
may be attributed the growth of
Standard Oil. Attorney Morrison, as
sisting Kellogg, laid upon the table
bundle of papers, explaining that
they were reports Of railroads show
ing shipments Of oil by independents,
illustrating the manner in which the
trust checks up the business of its
competitors.

Arlington, April GA link was cut
out Of the main line of the O. r. & N.
road this morning by burning
bridge spanning deep gulch below
the depot here. The Cheyenne train,
due at Portland at 1920 this morning
and the Spokane flyer were both de-
layed. The flyer is close to the bridge
and the other train behind it. All
told five hundred passengers on both
trains are gazing at the wreck. 1t Is
doubtful if they reach Portland to-
night. Although the supertsructure
of the bridge remains, the long sup
ports reaching to the depths of the
gulch are charred and tottering.
Some supports are still burning,
which is due to the fact that the grav-
ity water system of the volunteer fire
sure to reach the burning timbers.
The fire was caused by a hobo in a
box car. While the volunteers were
fighting the flames word was sent to
head off the two approaching trains.
j. B. Eddy, the right of way superin-
tendent of the railroad who was on
the train took charge of affairs. He
has sent,in all directions for new sup
ports.
Total Damage of Fire.
The fire entailing a loss of several
thousand dollars and destroying, in
all, a large warehouse, two small
railroad bridges and three box cars.
The traffic to Portland will be delayed
for several hours. It is probable
however, that the evening local and
No. 2 will be able to come through
about on time.
General Superintendent Buckley
and Division Superintendent Camp
bell were both in their private car,
attached to No. and eastward bound
when they heard of the fire. At that
time they were between Umatilla and
Pendleton and upon reaching this city
they ordered their car set out and at
tached to the engine for the Portland
local which took them to Umatilla
and there another engine took them
on to Arlington where they are to-
day, personally supervising the tenn
porary repairs and the opening of the
track. The engine was late in re-
turning to Pendleton causing the To-
cal to be late in leaving on its regu-
lar run for Portland.

Fooled in his attempt to secure
$1,000 from his uncle on a fake kill
naping scheme which he had worked
up with himself as the alleged vic
tim, L. A. Raup, aged 20 years and
a member of one Of Milton's most
highly respected families, is now held
in the county Jail. The uncle whom
he sought to blackmail is S. A. Mil
Ter, president Of the Milton nursery
company and former mayor of Mil
ton.
Raup failed to get the money as
planned simply because he lost his
nerve, as the uncle was about to COM
ply with the demands of the myster-
ious letter he had received. 1t is not
believed however that the young man
would have been able to make his es-
cape with the money, even though he
had secured it.

The character in question is not. however. the person generally depicted with cloven hoof, horns and tail. but a four-Iegged one cap tured in Tasmania.

New York. July 12-(Special Cor respondence of The Republican, Whether the removal of Police Com missioner Bingham was the result of a political plot or merely of per sOnal feeling against him on the part of the mayor and whether or not it will result in making the doughty army officer the anti-Tammany can didate for the city's chief executive office at the coming election, are questions that are still being debated. One result of the upheaval in the city's police department has become evident imediately That is a retro gression toward the wide-open con- ditions of other days. Gamblers who had not been seen in their accustom- ed haunts for many moons have sud denly appeared along the Great White Way, coming from no one knows where. Pool rooms and gambling houses. the doors of which havo been tightly barred for d long time. have resumed operations with scarcely an attempt at concealment Three-card monte men and other sharks of the "tin-horn' variety have piled their craft wherever crowds have gathered.

While the lost and found articles reported from different parts of the city aggregate millions of dollars yearly and include almost every con ccivable kind of property from babies to grand pianos, a new record in this direction was established this week with the discovery in Harlem of vagrant street car line for which no owner can be located.

Apparently it's construc- tion never was authorized by the city authorities. Those who have tried to trace the history of this orphaned street railway in the heart of Greater New York believe that it was built by the old Sixth avenue railroad to prevent a rival line from obtaining a cross town outlet. The Sixth avenue road iS now part of tn" Metropolitan surface system. but the officers of the latter disClaim all responsibility for the parentlcss line.

That the disappearance of Wall street, termed by its critics as the greatest gambling center in the world, is only a question of time, is the prediction of experts, who base their claim on a careful study of existing conditions While they admit that the speculative operations with which Wall Street is identified may con tinue undisturbed indefinitely, these experts assert that the time is not far distant when Wall street will be as far out of the real city as was liar lem one hundred years ago, when that locality was regarded as an up state community. Very naturally New York cannot expand to the south, east or west, unless the bay or the river be filled in as was suggested by Thomas A. Edison some years ago. and for this reason it has been stead fly growing nOrthward until it's cen ter, once at the extreme southern limit of the city, is now at Forty fourth street and travelling on at the rate of three city blocks a year, or a mile in every three years.

against her husband, Charles Benjamin
L. Knott recommending that absolute
divorce be granted Mrs, Knott, together
with the custody of the child, Alice Flo

married in Newark on December 20,
1895, and Immediately took up residence
in this city. They lived together seven
years, when, in April, 1902, after series
of quarrels they separated. Mrs. Knott
