Rockefeller Says Best Way to
Help Laboring Man Is Give
Him Good Wages

New York, Feb. 6.-Within a space
of two hours yesterday afternoon the
two richest men in the world, John ID.
Rockefeller. Sr., and Andrew Carne-
gle, took the public into their conf
dence at the hearing before the United
States Commission on Industrial Rela-
tions. in the assembly room of the
Metropolitan Building.
Mr.. Carnegie proudly and enthusiast
tically related how his foundations
and gifts already amounted to s324.-
657.390, and Mr.. Rockefeller, with
more restraint, but equal satisfaction,
explained how his gifts, estimated at
$3.50, 100000, are being diverted to
public use.
Il believe the best way to help the
laboring man." Mr.. Rockefeller said,
lis to give him good wages rather
than have him become the object of
charity.
Offers TO Share
l would be only too happy" Mr..
Rockefeller said in answer to a ques-
tion, Ito surrender my holdings in
whole or in part if the workers could
come into the board of directors and
get the profits. | would be very hap
py to think that the laborers were my
partners"
Mr.. Rockefeller said he had thought
of many plans by which stock and
ownership could be transferred to the
workers
AS for Colorado, he said. he did not
go into the question of grievances or
other Details" He had not seen a
list of the grievances which the miners
addressed to the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company. nor had he ever been
advised of any of the claims of en-
ployes in the industries in which he
was interested
Il believe" said Mr.. Rockefeller,
that the employer should always
stand by his faithful employees"
After MT. Carnegie mad prepared to
read his statement he was asked what
mis- business was.
ny business" he replied lis to do
all the good in the world that [ can"
His statement was. in part, as fol-
lows:
Il never bought or sold shares on
the exchange; all my earnings were
from manufacturing. If 1t were nee
cssary for be to return to that calling
! should not consider the problem of
labor as at all difficult. on the con-
trary, | enjoyed conferences with our

Sore 'rllroal Con'ts.

When the children have sore throat,
don't blister their neaks with lamp oil.
Don't torture them with foul smelling
piece of fat meat. wrapped about the neck.
Don't imagine there is medical virtue in
an old sock or piece of red flannel. Don't
believe in anticuated superstitions.
A sore throat is serious matter and is
not to be healed by such maSe-belieye REM
edies. The use OF such methods is
simply putting the patient to need II

BRITAIN LOSES FIGHT
GENERAL HAWLEY AND 1000 MEN
KILLED BY DERVisHEs.
Al Prisoners Are Decapitated--RaiI-
roads and Telegraph Wires De-
stroyed in Sudan.

Berlin, Germany (by wireless to
Sayville. L. ~, March 20.--A German
merchant who has returned from
Egypt is authority for the declaration
that the whole of the Sudan, includ-
Ing Khartum and also part of Nubia,
is in possession of the dervishes.

nearly 1000 men, lost their lives.

the alleged uprising of the Senussi
tribesmen in November He declares
that they destroyed an Australian
camp near the pyramids November
10, killing 200 Australians and cap
turing guns and provisions.
Later. in large force not fewer than
10000, they overfowed the entire
province of Fayum and destroyed all
railroads, including the Carp Assuan
line. December / they destroyed the
Alexandria, Cairo railroad near Danlan-
hur.
Thousands of tribesmen responded
to the appeal Of the dervishes and
December 13, 10000 of them marched
in the direction of Fashoda, on the
White Nile, where General Hawley
opposed them with 5000 troops. OF
the men under Hawley all the native
soldiers deserted to the dervishes,
leaving them only 1000 men.
Most of this contingent was killed
and General Hawley and all his off,
GERS fell. Nabur-El-Asi, commanding
the dervishes. had all his prisoners
decapitated.
AS result of this victory all the
native chiefs joined the dervishes,
who, January /, took possession of
the important military post at Nasser,
in the district of Seminar.
The merchant also declares that the
dervishes destroyed all the telegraph
lines in lower Egypt. No word of the
conquest of the Sudan has been al
lowed to leak out.

AUSTRIAN sTRoNeHoLD-5o,-
600 ARE CAPTURED.
TOTAL LOSSES ARE 100000
sIays Enter City Without Firing Shot
Hunger and Disease Forces Sur
render-Grand Dlke and General
Decorated by the Gar.


London, March 24.-The white flag
was hoisted on the fortress of Pre-
mysl on Monday and the Russian
army entered the city without firing a
shot after a siege of six months to the
day that has few parallels in history.
Fifty thousand Austrian soldiers, 200
officers and nine generals threw down
their arms and surrendered, worn to
the last extremity by disease and
hunger. The fall of the fortress is re-
garded In Petrograd and London as
the greatest victory for Russian arms
since the beginning of the war.
Following up quickly the advantage
gained by the capture of the Austrian
stronghold, the Russian army has be-
gun a gigantic battle along the en-.
tire Carpathian front Reinforce
ments have been rushed into the
mountains In the expectation OF the
fall of Przemysl and everywhere the
Austrians are being attacked with
marked stubbornness.
The most violent conflicts are TAX
ing place in the vicinity of the Dukla,
Uszok and Lupkow passes, which are
the three principal passes nearest
Przemysl from which they are dis
tant only about fifty miles.
The official statement received from
Petrograd says:
I'm consequence of the joyful event
of the surrender of the fortress of
Przemysl, Generaiissimo the Grand
Duke Nicholas has been awarded the
st. Georges cross of the second de-
gree and General Seliwamoff, COM
mander of the army before Przemysl,
has been awarded the st. Georges
cross Of the third degree"
Austro-German losses in the at
tempted sortie from Przemysl and the
lighting south of Tarnow in the last
4S hours total more than forty thou
sand, according to semioficial state,
ment from the Russian war office. The
garrison originally numbered 100000
men. The Russian armies engaged in
the siege are now expected to ads
vance simultaneously to besiege the
fortress of Cracow and to aid in the
invasion of Hungary.
The news of the fall of the fortress
evoked the widest scenes in Petro-
grad since the beginning of the war.
Crowds massed in the street and be.
fore the government buildings. cheer
ing wildly.
Almost daily the Austrian garrison
has sailed forth to attack the Rus
sian outposts, which were steadily
drawing tighter ring about the in
ner forts. The Russian howitzers
finally wrecked all the outer forts and
the Russian war Office several days
ago made the significant announce
ment that Russian troops we're with
in rifle shot of the main defense.
For months the only means of COM
munication between Przemysl and the
outside world was by wireless teleg-
raphy and aeroplanes.
There have been indications recent
ly that hunger was an effective ally
of the Russians, for it was reported
that aeroplanes were making daily
flights TO Przemysl with cargoes of
provisions
