OHIO COURTS AGAIN
CENTER OFF|GHT TO
GUST STANDARD OIL
Suits Begun by Wade Ellis
Due for Hearing
Tomorrow.

FINDLAY. Ohio. Nav S.-Unless an
other postponement is agreed upon, the
legal proceedings by which the State OF
Ohio has been endeavoring for some
years to oust the Standard Oil Com
pany from this state will be aired In
the circuit court hero tomorrow. The
custer suits are directed against the
Buckeye Pipe Line, the Solar Refining
and Ohio Fuel companies, which the
State declares are controlled by the
Standard Oil Company, in violation Of
the Ohio antitrust laws.
The suits were originally begun by
Wade Fl. Ellis. when lie was attorney
general of Ohio. When Mr.. Ellis re-
tired from office. his successor, L. G.
Denman. took up the prosecution of the
suits. ATTORNEY General Denman's ef-
forts were temporarily blocked by a
court decision directing the State to
make the Standard OIL corporation a
party defendant.
As the Standard had no office or legal
representatives in Ohio, the attorney
general caused the papers TO be served
on the three constituent companies,
contending thev were the agents of the
parent corporation. The Standard there
upon filed motion to have this service
declared irregular. and it Is this motion
that is docketed for argument in the
circuit court here tomorrow.

HUCKST[RS' CRIES

Warm Weather Here, So
Anti-Noise Law Will Be
Strictly Enforced.

That the peace and quiet of the Ma
tional Capital may not be disturbed by
the rasping voices of hucksters and ped
dlers, orders were issued at Police
Headquarters today to promptly arrest
any of them who attempt to cry their
wares.
This is the time of the year when
pushcart men and hucksters spring up
like mushrooms, but life is not easy or
pleasant in Washington for the mer-
chant who has his shop on wheels. In
the first place. 1t is a violation Of law
for the pushcart men in Seventh street
northwest to stop on the street except
when making a sale. They must keep
moving all the time, and just to show
that they are on the job the police
round up a dozen or SO every week, and
make them leave from 81 to so col
lateral for their appearance in the Po-
lice Court the following day.
1t Is also against the regulations for
in alleys. or in apartment house cor
ridors.
Now that the warm weather is here"
the order issued today reads. land per-
sons who work at night must get their
rest during the day, and for other rea-
sons, including the fact that there Is a
law against it, necessitates this order"
So the majestic silence that hangs
over a smokeless city will not be blasted

HOUSE INQUIRIES
. TO PILE UP WORK IN.
PRINTING OFFICE
Democratic Revelations Will
Make Thousands of
Printed Pages.

The Government Printing Office will
see one of the busiest summers in its
| history If the Democratic House carries
| out it's present investigation program.
Fourteen investigating committees. each
with printing to be done, are expected
| to be in full swing by the end Of this
| week, and resolutions have been intro
duced asking for as many more in
| quiries.
As pointed out by Representative
Rodenberg, who developed into a House
jokesmith by introducing a resolution
to investigate the great national game
of baseball, the Democrats have decided
upon probes of nearly everything under
the sun.
Mr.. Rodenberg recalled that no in
quiry had been ordered into the batting
averages Of Ty Cobb, Nap Lajoie. or
Hans Wagner. nor had Congress taken
official notice of the pitching feats OF
Walter Johnson or Chr1sty Mathewson,
so he demanded that the Committee on
Education proceed with such an investl-
cation forthwith. Daily sessions are to
be held in the baseball park grandstand,
if the committee is authorized.
The Rodenberg resolution, introduc-
ed in all solemnity, serves mainly to
direct attention to the comprehensive
scheme of inquiry now atoot on the
Lart of the Democratic House. Nine
investigating committees are at work
on a yrobe of the expenditures in as
many Government departments. The
civil service is under fire by another
committee.
In addition, there are resolutions in
asking for Investigations OF the Steel
trust. the Wool trust, the Sugar trust,
the Five Civilized Tribes. the Gov
ernment Hospital for the Insane, the
Health Department of the District.
the Attorney General, Government
commissions and boards, the condi-
tions in Mexico, the political ma
chine" of the Postoffice Department,
the Taylor system of shop manage
ment, the telephone service in the Dis
trict, and what not.
The printed reports of these inves-
tigating committees will require
thousands of pages. but the Demo
Gratis think the revelations Will be
worth while.

Explosion of Grain Dust Causes Fire
Which Destroys Elevator and En-

Milwaukee.-An explosion of grain
dust in elevator B, operated by the
Rialto elevator company, caused a
fire that destroyed the building and
damaged the contents to the extent
of 100000. The burned building
was 80x200 feet and six stories in
height.
Cinders and burning brands were
carried over the city by the wind, en-
dangering millions of dollars worth
of property. So intense was the
heat that the firemen were prevented
from approaching close enough to
the burning elevator to do effective
work and they confined their efforts
to surrounding buildings, which were
continually catching fire. Four fire.
men narrowly escaped death when a
second explosion of grain dust oc-
Cured. Freight boats in the river
were unable to pass the burning
structure for several hours, until the
flames had spent their force.

from two to six inches long. They
are very peculiar in appearance and
are sometimes called Praying Mantis,
Soothsayers and the Prophet Bugs.
1t is said the Chinese tell their for
tunes from the actions of the insects.
The name Praying Mantis comes from
the fact that the insects hold their two
front legs, which are very short, in q
praying position, and often work them
rapidly back and forth. The most
peculiar parts Of the bug are its eyes
and long neck. The eyes are like
miniature shoe buttons on the outside
of the Insects head. and in proportion
to it's size are very large. The neck
shoots out from the body and forms
about one-third the length Of the bug,
ranging from one to two inches. The
mantis can fly, has green wings, a
brown glossy back and long feelers
protruding from its head. All to-

TAFT MAY NAME WlNsLoW
Wisconsin Jurist Is Possible Success
sor to the Late u. s. Supreme
Court Justice Harlan.

lwaukee.-Among the distin-
gulshed judges and lawyers men
toned as possible successors to
Justice John Marshall Harlan, of the
United States Supreme court. who
died recently, is Chief Justice John
B. Winslow, of the Wisconsin SUI
preme court. Justice Winslow was ON
the presidents slate for appointment
year ago and it is understood
would then have been chosen for
the high honor had it not been for
the opposition of the senior United
States senator from Wisconsin.
Chief Justice Winslow was born
at Funda, Livingston county New
York, October 4, 1851, hence has
just passed his sixtieth birthday. He
was graduated from Racine college
in 1871, and from the law depart
ment of the University of Wisconsin
in 1875.
For several years he was city at
torney of Racine and in 1883 was
elected circuit Judge of the First
circuit. He was reelected and was
serving in that capacity when he
was called to the Supreme court in
1891 to fill the seat made vacant
by the death of Justice David Tay-
lor. He was elected for the unex-
p1red term in 1892 and since elected
for two terms of ten years each.
