Our Commander in Chief has. ac-
cepted the invitation from the City

nual reunion there, and General
Orders No. s. from genreal headquart.

the commanders and adjutants of
the subdivisions Of our central organi-
zation rests the life of the Confederate
organizations the keeping alive the
camps and all that concerns the well
fare Of the smaller units. We there
fore appeal to the division, brigade
and camp commanders and their adj
jutants to stimulate interest in our
organization, to the end that the at
tendance at our approaching conven-
s tion may be full one; and that this,
our thirty-first reunion, may be mark
ed by q degree of enthusiasm and fra
ternal affection of comrade for COM
rade- second to none in the history
Of our great gatherings.
Every year marks the passing of the
Confederat Veterans. Our numbers
are growing less, but the bonds of
comradship should grow stronger
and warmer, at each recurring re-
union, with those who survive.
The City. of Chattanooga will be
our host and its richly-merited repu-
tation for unstinted hospitality, we
are assured, will this year be CON
spicuously maintained.
The mountains and valleys sur
rounding this historic city are all
hallowed by the blood of our com
rades, 50 freely poured out there in
the sixties, and sacred memories will
greet the eye Of the old soldier on
every side.
The railroad systems have granted
the usual one cent rate per mile rate,
and other Accommodations heretofore
accorded our organization Camp
commaders should see that the
agent at different stations are duly
notified and have on hand tickets to
accommodate the reunion. Many, in the
past, have been inconvenienced and
put to unnecessary expense on ac-
count Of station agents failing to sup
ply rate-tickets in time

Southern people today is the preser.

Syndicate Violations.

The violations OF the terms of the syn
dcate distributing the Burlington plan
bonds have been so numerous and so
flagrant as to cause its managers to
send out last night telegram Of warn
ing TO syndicate participants. In one
way or another. directly or indirectly,
some inexperienced members Of the syn
dicate contrived to offer more than par
and interest for the maturing BurlinS-
Ton Joint As as an inducement to get In
vestors 10 subscribe to the new joint

stances the following telegram signed

I'VE desire TO emphasize that any par
ticipant in the Burlington syndicate who
accepts Burlington joint As in payment
for new 6I3s and allows his customers
either directly or indirectly more than
par and interest TO date or delivery is
thereby specifically violating the terms
Of the syndicate. In response to general
inquiry we confirm the fact that the

STANDARD BIDS FOR
DUTCH OIL RIGHTS
+. ID. Asche Seeks Concession
in Djambi District, Island
Of Sumatra.

r. u. Asche vice-president OF the
Standard oi! Company OF New Jersey. IS
IN Europe negotiating with the Dutch
Government TO obtain oil concessions IN
Djambi Island OF sumatra. This was
learned yesterday in the offices OF the
company 26 Broadway, confirming recent
cable despatches chat chronicied Discus
sions ii the Dutcl Parliament of 4 bid
made by standard oil interests by those
concessions.
Since 1900 the standard has been
cndeavoring 10 participate in the devel-
opment OF oil fields in the Dutch East
Indies and at one time had concluded
an agreement TO buy a Dutch company
which 1t purposed to rcorganize as a
Standard subsidiary. This was blocked
by the Minister OF Colonies. who said
his Government probably would not per-
NIT the transfer. Later the sale to the
Royal Dutch interests was approved.
In 1910 the Standard associated -
self with a group Of Dutch capitalists In
the organization OF 4 Dutch company
called the Kolonlale. with view 70
obtaining and working concessions un-
der the law IN territory not previously
disposed of By the Colonial Government

bidding until three years later when
several companies made tenders. The
koloniale bid was onjected 10 hy the
Governor General on the ground that
it was made by company In which
was foreign capital.
Representations were made Ivy the
Department of State TO the Dutch Gov
ernment that as the ROYAL Dutch Com
pany had obtained holdings in the United
States American capital should be al
lowed equal opportunities with Royal
Dutch in Sumatra. A bill was recently
introduced in the Dutch Parliament pro-
posing TO give to the Royal Dutch sub
sidiary. the Batavia oil Company, an
exclusive concession In the Djambi fields.
The Standard has now asked for half
OF the Djambi concessions on the same
terms Offered - the Royal Dutch in
