Premier Asquith was defeated by
the suffragettes today.
The premier was delivering an

The first move made by
the women was to send

WASHINGTON, d. c.. July 20.
Senator Jones from the state
of Washington has urged Cover
nor Hay of that state to call a
special election so that q successor
to the late Congressman Cushman
may be chosen without delay. The
senator notified the governor in a
telegram that the services of an
other representative from Wash
ington are badly needed.
While he points out the fact
that the new congressman could
not reach Washington before the
special session of the congress adj
journs, he declares there are other
matters demanding attention
through the summer which cannot
be cared for by Humphrey or
Poindexter, now that the state has
been divided into districts.

WASHINGTON, d. G

WASHINGTON, d. c.,
July 20.-In q years all
the coal oil in the United
States will be exhausted.
This is the startling pre-
diction of DR.. David T.
Day, petroleum expert of
the United States geolog-
ical survey, in a report to
the national conservation
commission.
It's based on facts
facts carefully gathered
by DIR. Day and a large
corps of expert assistants
through every state in the
Union.
It's the most conservative esti-
mate DR.. Day could arrive at. His
minimum figures would see the
last oil we'll in America cease to
spout nine years sooner.
And with oil going, going, go
ing, its last days inevitable as the
end of life, United States is ship
ping its oil away to foreign ma
tions as fast as it. can. Sixty-five
per cent of all the oil produced
in this country is sent to foreign
nations.
What will be the situation in
1896, when our wells run dry?
DIR. Days statements loom up
like the solemn warnings of a
prophet.
There are two other great sig
nificant facts in the situation.
One that the Standard Oil Co.
is now storing oil away In tanks
and reservoirs over the country at
the rate of 100000 barrels a
month. 1t already has close TO
100, 900 900 barrels, worth more
than $3.50, 900, 900 at today's mar
ket price.
The other fact is that the
Standard, the most powerful, the
most shrewdly managed, the best
hated monopoly of the world, is
deep in policy that has nothing
less than q corner of all the oil
in the world as its ultimate aim.
Already the Standard controls
the great Galatian fields in Rou-
mania, great holdings in Russia,
Germany and smaller fields over
the world. State Senator Emery
of Pennsylvania charged before
the house finance committee that
the Standard had effected an al
lance with the big Pearson syn
diacte in Mexico, which controls
the fields of that country from the
Ria Grande to Yucatan. In Japan
1t was all powerful until two years
ago, when the Japanese govern
ment took nominal ownership

HOW NEW YORK
COURT VIEWS
CORAL BETTING"

New York. Nov. 10.-In it's opinion
affirming the decision of the lower
court in regard to "oral betting" the
court OF appeals differentiated strongly
between gambling and betting. AS it
affected bookmaking and betting in
general the opinion said:
The ordinary bookmaker is a person
who follows the races and is enabled
to prepare a list of horses entered with
the odds SO arranged as to percentages
as to give him a profit whichever way
the winning horse may be. This Is the
evil which the legislature sought to
prevent by the enactment of the Hart
Agnew laws.
There has always been observed a
distinction between betting and gam
bling, or the maintaining Of house or
place to which people could resort to
gamble. The same distinction obtains
in this state, where oral betting has
never been a crime, while the keeping
Of gambling house has been subjected
to severe punishment. The laying of
odds standing alone does not, there
fore. constitute a crime
The vice Of bookmaking chiefly con-
sists in soliciting and in the inducing
the public to take chances in the care

the bookmakers. and this, in order to
be made profitable to him. REQUIRES
the writing out of the list of the odds
laid on some paper or material so that
it could be seen by those who were So
licited to invest"
