gallon of I've sufficiently strong to
float an egg. Set the vessel in the sun,

work. The ordinary homemade soap
Is so strong in I've that it eats and

 Secretary Wilson discussed the bumper crops, the high cost of living, and the wide margin between the price obtained by the farmers and by the middle men distributors of the farm products.
 He said the solution lay in buying large quantities, in selling direct from the pro- ducer to the consumer, or some other such step to cut down the mddlemen profits.

WHITE PREACHERS
 ARE POORLY PAID

New York, November 14-White Meth- odist ministers of Southern conference are working at $230 year, according to Bishop William F. Anderson of Tennes- see, who made plea for large appropria- tions before the home mission board of the Methodist Episcopal church tonight. He added that upper Mississippi confer- ence, negro body, received s700 more than 1t asks and that the colored pastor in one district was doing so well that he was loaning out money at per cent in- terest
 After considerable debate $500 was taken from the upper Mississippi (negro) appropriation; $500 of it will go to the Italian mission at Yonkers. The remain ing $2O0 is--to be used in NewYorl. The southern conference, that formed the theme of Bishop Andersons plea, was left out.
 Bishop Charles w. Smith of Oregon, formerly of the south, argued against in- creasing the southern appropriation.
 ITO give more to those southern con- ferences," he said, lis simply spelling them. We are trying to get to the point where churches will be self-supporting. Some of the churches for which pleas are being made have been receiving aid from this mission board for 35 years and they are no better now than they were them

SECRET RATE ON O|[
 KNOWN 10 VERY FEW
Southern Railway Officials Dis
 claim Knowledge
VIOLATION OF THE LAW
Charges That Scheme Is Resorted to in order to Keep the Rate Secret

Jackson, Tenn, November 14.-If the Standard oil Company of Indiana, as has been testified, received the advantage of a 1s-cent rate on petroleum and products from Whiting, Ind, to Grand Junction, Tenn, 1t was without the knowledge of at least two of the general traffic officers of the Southern railway. according to their statements under oath today. In fact neither J. M. Cuip, at present vice president of the Southern, and Lincoln Green, freight traffic manager of the same system, knew of the Recent rate, they avowed, between the two points named.
 Again the witnesses contended that the Standard oil Company of Kentucky, the purchaser of the oil in question, and with whom the Southern dealt in connection with its trans-shipment to the southeast from Grand Junction, would not have been granted certain rates by the South ern had they known that less than the proportionate part of a joint Illinois Central-Southern tarinf4had been charged for the haul from Evansville to Grand Junction.
 It is the charge of the United States that the payment of the divisional part
 
 named was alleged. Also that scheme and device was resorted to to keep the 13-cent rate secret and that as whole Il was violation of the Ellkins law. The shipments testified to by MT. Culp and MT. Green form the basis for the govern ment's suit
 The much debated 13 cents tariff was a joint rate from Whiting to Grand Junc- tion promulgated by the Illinois Central and the Chicago and Eastern Illinois sys- tems, parties to the transportation. The two southern officials also repeated that part of their evidence given before the so-called Garfield inquiry at Washington several years ago applicable to the pres ent issue. MT. Culp especially empha- sized that he knew only the Standard oil company in general and not the corpor- ations of the different states. l.. 8. Hutts, assistant chief clerk in the office of the Illinois Central auditor at Chicago during the years 1903 to 1905, when the shipments were made. was an- other witness. He admitted that fre- quently waybills sent out "blind were returned to his office from the point of destination at the end of their line and rates inserted. He, too, denied personal knowledge of a Recent rate.
 At the start this morning the prose- cution suffered several rebuffs by adverse court rulings as to the scope of the testi- mony admissible.
