immense number represents the dis
bursement Of S310,2O6.11 in actual cash
among the 20 advertisers who partici-
pated in the Refund Bargain Page
plan This amounts to $4,000 a week
or over $4,000 a day over the whole
term Of the 10 weeks campaign
The advertisements were very small,
and were inserted only twice a week,
on Mondays and Fridays only Some
Of the advertised lines were not OF
sort that could be expected to produce
any great drive Of selling Yet these
20 advertisers received over $4,000
cash in the 10 weeks as a direct result
Of this special advertising in The Her
aid Nothing but cash was counted IN
the contest. No statement Of goods
bought was counted unless II bore the
paid" stamp Of the store
It IS interesting to note that in order
20 produce this $4,000 worth OF cash
business in ten weeks the 20 adver-
tisers participating invested exactly
S122L96 in advertising space in The
Herald This means that they spent
Just two-fifths Of 1 cent TO produce
each dollar OF cash business enjoyed
as result Of the special advertising
The return to the merchants on the
advertising was thus $256 for every
cent invested in the special advertising

N!LSQN SURPRISED
at Lack OF Responses of Bust
ness to Invitations for Sug-
gestions on Legislation.
az Aasee1Aren rnEssl

WASHINGTON Feb. 2.-Presi dent
Wilson is surprised At the lack OF re-
Spouse from business men to the invi-
tation fer suggestions on pending
trust legislation and that 50 few have
accepted the invitation to appear at
congressional hearings. The presl-
dent does not know whether the bust
ness men Of the country approve the
tentative measures as drawn or
whether they have not yet taken no
tice of the hearings. When il was
suggested to the president today that
business men might fear being brand
ed as lobby lists if they came 10 Wash
ington in that connection, Mr.. Wilson
Iaughi1gIy remarked that no one
could be regarded as a lobbyist who
came by invitation.

OPPOSE INCREA Sc
In Freiqnt Rates Railroads of
the Country Ask the Com
mission to Grant Them.
esv AseeeIArEe eREss,

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2. Shippers
of bituminous coal had their innings
today before the Interstate Commerce
Commission opposing the five per cent
increase in freight rates being sought
by the eastern railroads. The commits
sion has set aside three days for hear
ing the coal shippers.
Frank Lyon, representing the
Pittsburg Coal Company, protested
that the shippers could not be com-
PEELED to put in their case until the
railroad had finished theirs. He de-
clared that to grant the Increase
asked would be Practically to annull
all of the orders for Reasonable rates,
the commission had issued in recent
years Mr.. Lyon developed that tho
railroads opera ting from the Pitts
burg district to the great lakes did
not keep separate account of costs of
moving passenger and freight traffic
and asked the commission to direct
that separate figures as to the charg-
es of moving coal be presented.
Commissioner Harlan took the re-
quest under advisement and indicat-
ed that if granted the figures would
be prepared by an examiner of the
commission.
DR.. Edward Mead was called as
the first witness for the coal shippers.
He is professor of finance in the Uni.
versity of Pennsylvania.

FLF TBEN79H YEAR
OF OGDEN STORE
Is Celebrated with Big Sale All
Week and 1t Marks Very
Remarkable Growth.

The fifteenth anniversary sale at
tho y. NJ. Ogden Company store was
started this morning and 1t will con-
tinue all week. The sale is a general
one in all departments of the store
with liberal reductions on all goods.
February 2, 1899, Mr.. Ogden OPP
9ned his first store in this city, in the
old Traders. Hotel building where his
present store now is. At that time
Mr.. Ogden had one floor, with 1000
square feet of floor space and en-
ployed four girls. From that small
start in 1899 the store has had a
rapid growth until today it is one of
lie leading department stores of the
city In comparison with the single
rcom with 1000 feet of floor space in
1899, the company today has three
large well lighted floors, covering
3,500 square feet of floor space and
ne employs seventeen sales girls.
IN 1911 the store was destroyed by
fire when the Traders hotel was burn
ed. The company opened store in
the McCarty building on the corner
of Fifth and Main streets shortly at
ter the fire and occupied that stand
for #5aVenteen months when it remov-
ed to its present location.
In the month of December, 1913,
the store did q fourth more business
than in the entire year of 1899, show
ing remarkable growth. This season
the store will make the largest show
ing in its history in ready-to-wear
garments, dress goods and HOUSEHOLD
furnishings.
The growth of this store is due
largely to the untiring efforts and
hard work of Mr. Ogden, it's man
ager, who is one of the city's leading
business men, as well as to the enter
prise OF the members of the other
company. leading business men of the
community.
