EIGHT PER CENT

The monthly report of the U. s.
Bureau of mines shows that domes-
tic demand for motor fuel was 8
percent greater in August of this
year than in August. 1895. hut be-
low the demand in July. Domestic
demand was 100000 barrels daily.
Exports of motor fuel increased
to S,771.000 barrels, the highest
since May, 1882. Withdrawal from
gssoline stocks. 3.589,OOO barrels,
was less than normal.
Production passed consumption in
August. with 3.712 500 barrels per
day. which was 21 per cent greater
than year ago. This resulted in
adding 2.257,O0O barrels of crude
to storage as against withdrawal of
storage oil in July.
Crude imports totaled 2.661OOO
barrels, which accounts for the
excess Of production over consump-
ton, since imported crude displaced

MRS. GAILLARD'
Widow of Canal Expert
Dies at Home Here

Mrs. Katherine Davis Gaillard,
widow of Col. Davis Dubose Gail
lard, builder of Culebra Cut in the
Panama Canal Zone. died yesteT-
day of a heart attack at her resi-
dence, 1861 Crescent Pd. N. w. She
was 70.
Mrs. Gaillard was the daughter
of Col. Henry C. Davis of Ridge
way, S. c., an officer in the Con-
federate army. Of an old South
ern family, she was born on her
fathers plantation in Ridgeway.

in Johns Hopkins Hospital In
Baltimore upon his return to the
States. Culebra Cut has since
been renamed Gaillard Cut by
presidential order.
Mrs. Gaillard was a lover of
flowers, and during the years she
passed in Panama she made a
notable collection of orchids. One
orchid, the "Phylocactus Gail.
lard" was named in her honor.
Although inactive in club af-
fairs in recent years due to failing
health, Mrs. Gaillard was a former
member of the board Of trustees
of the House of Mercy, Columbia
