TRIUMPH FOR AMERICANS
German Campaign of Slander Against
the Deutsche Vacuum OIL
Company Falls.

Berlin.-The long and venomous
campaign waged by German newspa-
pers and rival industrial interests
against one of the German branches
of the Standard Oil company-the
Deutsche Vacuum Oil company-has
just been brought to a victorious end
for the Americans involved.
A well-known Hamburg newspaper
for months printed such a series of
attacks on the American graft meth
DDS" alleged to have been practisod
by the vacuum company in the con-
duct of Its German business that the
public prosecutor of Hamburg felt
constrained to make an official inves-
tigation with view to eventual in
dictments. The prosecutor has now
concluded his investigation, especially
OF the work of E. L. Quarles, Ameri-
can manager of the German COM
pany's sales department, and an
nounces that no necessity exists for
pursuing the inquiry further.
No evidence of anything warranting
prosecution was found against Mr..
Quarles, and the costs of the entire in
qulry will be borne by the state.
The result of the investigation con-
st1tutes a notable triumph for Amer
lean interests in Germany.
1t Is not the first time that Germans,
finding themselves unable to compete
With Americans on ordinary terms.
have resorted to slander.

CLEAN SWEEP FOR HARVARD
Crews Defeat Yale Boats in Three
Shell Races on Thames
River.

New LondOn.-Harvard's day of vic
tory on the Thames Thursday culmi-
mated with success in the varsity
eight
With her stroke oar all but col
lapsed, Yale crossed the line at the
New London bridge four lengths be-
hind the Cambridge crew.
For three and half miles the shells
sped down the river almost abreast,
first one and then another forging
slightly ahead. Harvard was nearly a
length ahead at the two-mile point
and her bow showed in front for the
greater part of the way, but time and
again gallant squirt brought the New
Haven she'll on even terms. Not until
the boats entered the final quarter
mile stretch did the Crimson look like
a winner.
Harvards victories were the most
decisive that ever marked the open
ing of her annual rowing regatta with
Yale. The Crimson freshman eight
Dared crew beat the youngsters from
New Haven by three lengths, and the
Harvard varsity four bettered this
performance a little later by rowing
away from Yale in the last eighth
mile of a surprising race and finish
ing four lengths in the lead.

RAILROADS GAIN A VICTORY
Commerce Commission Grant Permis-
sion to Advance Grain Rates East
of Buffalo.

Washington.-Ann was
made by the interstate commerce com
mission Thursday that it will not sus-
pend official classification Sc, involving
more than 5000 items, which was filed
to become effective July 1. This is
regarded as victory for the rail
roads.
Permission was granted by the COM
mission to railroads operating out of
Buffalo to advance rates on -four and
other wheat products one cent a hun.
dred pounds to eastern destinations.
For nearly month the commission
has been overwhelmed with protests
against the proposed new classified.
ton, many shippers seemed to believe
that the Encouragement of freight clas
sificatication would result in largely
increased rGtes. The subject was con.
sidered carefully by the commission,
a thorough and comprehensive check
being prepared on the entire classifi-
cation. In the items and ratings in
volved there are only fifty-eight
changes, of which twenty-eight are re-
ductions and thirty advances, the lat
ter including twelve increases in car
load weights.

MANY DIE IN CLOUDBURST
Three Kentucky Counties Are Swept
by Storm and FIood-Deaths
May Reach Forty.

Saylersville, Ky.-Fifteen people
are known to be dead, fifteen addition
al are reported as having died and
fully forty are missing as the result
of a cloudburst in Magoffin, Floyd
and Knott counties, KY, late Tuesday.
Twelve bodies of the known dead
have been secured by the workmen in
Saylersville and the towns affected by
the terrible cloudburst. When late
reports came in from sections lying
near Saylersville, it was estimated
by the people here that fully forty
have been killed in the foods and that
forty are missing from their homes.
Saylersville is the county seat of
Magoffin county which is in eastern
Kentucky. There are no railroads
running to the town and little else
than farming is done in this vicinity.
Floyd and Knott counties lie adjacent
to this county and have several small
towns lying directly on the Licking
river and large creeks which were af-
fected greatly by the downpour. 1t
has been raining in this section for
three days and the rivers and streams
were all full of water when the down
pour from the cloudburst broke over
this section. Instantly many houses
in this section were carried from their
foundations and were swept into the
streams.
Many of the people in these three
counties are homeless. The property
damage is estimated to be fully $780,
900 and the losses in stocks and grains
will go to even higher figures.

SENATOR J. ". DANIEL DEAD
OLDEST DEMOCRAT IN SENATE
DIES AT LYNCHBURG.
Has Third ParaIytic Stroke, but Cause
of Death Was Cerebral
Hemorrhage.

Lynchburg, Va. John w. Dan
iel, senior senator from Virginia, died
at the Lynchburg sanitarium Wednes-
day night, his death being due to a
recurrence of paralysis. The immedi-
ate cause Of his death was cerebral
hemorrhage.
This was Senator Daniels third
paralytic stroke. He suffered the first
last fall while in Philadelphia and the
second in Daytona, Fla, during the
winter, having gone to Florida to re-
cuperate. He had not been in Wash
ington for several months. Senator
Daniel was sixty-seven years old.
With Senator Daniel were his wife
and his son, Edward NJ. Daniel, and
his daughter, Mrs. Fred Harper, whose
husband, also here, is Senator Daniels
law partner.
The death Of Senator John Warwick
Daniel removes the oldest of the
Democratic senators in point of serv-
ice. Of the entire list he was the only
one who could be said to belong to
the old regime. And, as he was the
Oldest in service, he was one of the
most conspicuous in popular favor.
New Orleans.-Samuel Douglas Nc
Emery, United States senator from
Louisiana, suddenly expired at his
home here Tuesday from an attack of
acute indigestion.
The senator arrived here Monday
from Washington. He was seventy
three years old, and death was super
induced by old age.
The senator is survived by his wife,
who was before marriage Miss Eliza
beth Phillips of Monroe, Pa; his
daughter, Mrs. Warren B. Parker, and
his two sons, Charles P. McEnery and
DR.. Douglas w. McEnery of Wash
ington.
In all probability Gov. Jared Y.
Sanders will be chosen by the Louis
lana legislature, now in session, as
Senator McEnery's successor. 1t is
thought that the leading figures in
state politics have figured upon the
aged senator's passing for some time,
but it was not anticipated exactly at
this juncture.

DEMANDS MILLION DAMAGES
Ida Won cIaussen Files Suit Against
Roosevelt and Others Charging
SIander and Conspiracy.

New York-Ida Won Claussen, once
the wife of DR.. William Francis
Honan, whose coming to America to
sue Theodore Roosevelt and other
notables was announced from Paris
a few weeks ago, appeared in the
county house Tuesday with a COM
plant which she insisted on filing in
the county clerks office.
Her complaint charges Theodore
Roosevelt, Robert Bacon, ambassador
to France; Charles Graves, minister
to Sweden, and Mrs. Alice Wright G.
Graves, his wife, with slander and
conspiracy. She declares that through
the Vaccinations of these distin-
guished persons she was deprived of
royal marriage with Prince Eugene of
Sweden as the bridegroom.
Wherefore she demands $1,000, 900
damages.

Oyster Bay.-Robert NJ. La Toilette.
United States senator from Wiscon-
sin, spent two hours talking politics
with Theodore Roosevelt. He left
Oyster Bay wearing a broad smile.
Senator LaFollette arrived with G.
E. Roe, New York lawyer, who was
formerly his law partner. Colonel
Roosevelt's chauffeur was waiting for
them, and whisked them away to Sag.
amore Hill. The senator had pulled
his hat down over his eyes and tried
to escape unseen. But he was caught
fairly at 1t by a group of newspaper
men. They tackled him on suspicion,
although nobody recognized him, for
his hat hid his famous pompadour.
Not a word" he said I'm going
II Sycamore Hill, but l don't want a
word said about it."
When he returned, just in time to
catch a train for New York, he was
smiling his most expansive, persuasive
smile. ITS all right, boys, he cried
jovially. "The colonel says / may talk
WIN you.
Did we talk politics." he replied
to the first question. I'VE did.
I'VE talked of the legislation of the
present session of congress, from the
attitude of those members of the Re-
publican party whom the newspapers
are pleased to call insurgents"
Can you go into details?"
No; l prefer that they come from
Sycamore Hill. am very much pleased
with the result of my visit with
Colonel Roosevelt. very much pleased,
indeed"
The senator paused for a moment.
Suddenly the smile left his face for
the first time and he said impressively:
Il want to tell you that Colonel
Roosevelt is the great living Ameri.
can, and," he added slowly and sig
nificantly, "he is in fighting trim"

RAIL RATES ARE LOWERED
interstate Commerce Commission
Takes Action In Gases Affect
ing the Entire Country.

Observation-Disclosures in class
and commodities on all shipments
west from Chicago to the Pacific
coast were ordered Wednesday by the
interstate commerce commission.
The commission decided that the cap
ital invested in railroad property and
betterments did not justify the ad-
vance in rates to the point marked in
the new schedules filed by the rail-
roads.
The decisions are in what are
known popularity as the Pacific coast
cases. These cases were heard last
autumn by the commission on its six
weeks trip to the Pacific coast and
intermountain territory and had been
under consideration ever since then.
In every instance reductions in the
existing rates were made.

HEAT FAVORS TRADE
Hct Spell Has Stimulated Retail Dis
tribution, Though Demand Is Be-
low Earlier Antieip eipatlons.
New York.-Bradstreet's says:

|
Trade and crop reports are still ir-
regular, but weather conditions favor
distribution, and, except in few sec
tions, as. for instance, the southwest
and parts of the south, crops have
made satisfactory progress in the di-
rection of large yields.
Hot summer weather has stimulat-
ed retail distribution of seasonable
goods. though demand is still report
ed below earlier anticipation.
Jobing trade for fall is irregular,
being quiet as whole, but improving
in the southwest while being checked
in the northwest.
| Some cancellations of fall orders
are reported in the spring wheat
states, though in some cases these are
reperted no more numerous than nor
NAL.
Mid-year influences have added to
the rathe r quiet tone characterizing
some leading lines Of industry.
Rather more activity is noted in pig
iron, though at the expense of prices
Finished lines seem to show more
oaiet, some of which is undoubtedly
due to mid summer influences.
Textile industry shows from 25 to
40 per cent of curtailment proceeding,
and jewelry, coal mining and some
other lines are quiet.
Production of tin plate in June was
of record proportion, and mills are be-
hind on shipments of steel bar. Old
material is quiet, but the undertone
as to fall business has improved.
Copper is easier though business
has come out in a relatively fair way.
Apparently consumers have covered
their immediate requirements, and on
that account quiet conditions are an
ticipated, at least until the appear
ance, of the next statement as to
stocks, production and deliveries.

Meeting Between Present and Former
Executives Characterized by Old

Beverly, Mass.-A smile spread over
the face of President Taft Thursday
afternoon as he hurriedly left his work
in the library of the Burgess Point
cottage and rushed to the veranda
when the Lodge limousine drove up,
the ''honk honk" of which was an
nouncing the arrival of former Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
They met just outside the door and
simultaneously Taft clapped hand on
the Roosevelt shoulder as Roosevelt
seized the presidents hand in strong
grip.
"Mr. President" exclaimed the one;
and Theodore" cried the other.

Thus, after a separation of sixteen
months, Taft and Roosevelt met again,
at the Taft cottage here in Beverly,
with only Senator Lodge and Secre-
tary Norton present, all the rest Of
the world being barred out.

say it was characterized by all the
old-time cordiality of relations be.
tween the two-that there was the
best of feeling displayed-and that
the hearty bursts of laughter that pro-
ceeded first from the president and
then from Roosevelt as they sat on
the veranda and chatted for two hours
and half, was strongly reminiscent
of the old White House days.
AS to the talk between them-it
covered wide range of topics and
there was period when the president
and Roosevelt drew aside from the rest
of the party and conversed in low
tones. What was said must remain a
secret, however, between them, for
Taft declined to make any statement
after the colonel had departed and
Roosevelt would say only that he had
had most delightful time.

The ex-Shah of Persia appears to
have settled for himself at least the
problem of what to do with deposed
monarchs. He is studying medicine
and hopes soon to become a practising
physician. And that is a much more
honorable and commendable proceed
ing than dwelling apart in sullen idle
ness or plotting revolutions against
his country. Some other "exes"
might initiate his example with much
credit to themselves.

"Readjustment" the Trade Slogan.

ReauJ uJuStmenL' the ITduS oIo9du'
New York.-R. G. Dun & Co. S week.
ly review of trade says:
Conflicting crop news and severe de.
clines in security prices have dOmi'
mated the situation during the last
week. The record of the half year
just ended is summed up in the word
REIMBURSEMENT" in the prices of COM
modities and of securities, and in the
last week of the half year the process
i'll the latter has made rapid prog.
ress.
With the opening of the second half
OF the year the future in iron and steel
remains somewhat obscure, although
an appreciable change for the better
with the advent of fall is expected.
Recent curtailment of output by pig
iron furnaces failed to reduce accumu.
lated stocks, but there are now signs
Of more active demand for pig iron
in certain districts. Sales at this city
during June are placed in excess, in
some instances, of the record of any
previous month this year, although
prices suffered at the expense of or
ders. Buying by the railroads is not
heavy, yet fairly good orders are con-
Stantly received and cancellations
have not appeared. Business in struc-
tural shapes and in plates is not brisk
although sufficient to provide mills
with work at fairly satisfactory rate.
Retailers report a more seasonabIe
trade in wash fabrics and white goods,
and there is better tone manifested
in ordering for early spring delivery
in lines of finer cottons and certain
lines of dress ginghams. Southern
Colorado cottons are in moderate de-
mand for export to miscellaneous
ports, and shipments to Europe are
large enough to attract attention, but
China trade is dull. CurtailmeEt of
production in nearly all textile lines
is the noteworthy feature, attention
having been directed to its increasing
volume in consequence of the desire
to close week or 10 days during the
holiday period.
In addition to the lack of demand
the inability of mills to continue pro.
duction profitably because Of high
costs of raw materials and lower
prices for goods presents a very un-
usual situation.
The boot and shoe trade continues
slow and featureless. New England
manufacturers anticipate some revival
this month, and that jobbers through.
out the country will again operate
freely about the middle of July. The
leather trade is dull and prices weak,
especially on poor tanned stock, with
which the market is, heavily supplied
Country hides show a somewhat
firmer tone on account of improved
quality Of present receipts, but packer
hides are still weak.

1t is early in the year for crop esti.
mates to have much significance ex.
cept as to winter wheat. The govern
ment's May 1 report of winter wheat
conditions represented by 821 shows a
distinct improvement since a month
ago, when the figure was SOS. The
area under cultivation IS 25 per cent
in excess of that which contributed to
the winter wheat harvest of 1909.
These are encouraging statistics, after
the exaggerated proclamations of
widespread damage caused by the
April blizzard.
