Standard Oil Caces Soon
to be Prosecuted
in Chicago.
WILL BE EXTENSIVE
Dtfftrtrt Attorn 81 ma to Preparing
Proof Judge Lnndls Will rob
My Preside at the Trial Monop
oly - of the Boathec Meld it
Charged.
Washington, June 4. Penalties
nay be Imposed upon the Standard
Oil Company that will make the
iwenty-nlne million dollar fine of
recent memory appear paltry when
jlans under way by tne Department
f Justice are carried out. Prepar
ttlons are being made now In Chi
cago by District Attorney Sims, act
ing under directions from Attorney
general Bonaparte, for tho begln
alng of new prosecution that may
40Bt the big corporation $63,000,
400 If the maximum One Is Imposed,
ft is understood that the prelimi
nary work of arranging evidence Is
almost completed.
The last fine was imposed foV
1,402 cases of rebating. Tho new
case will Involve over 3,400 counts.
The Department of Justice docllnei
to divulge the name of the JuJce
before whom It will bring the ease.
It Is generally believed, however,
that Judge La lulls will be chosen,
partly because of his disposition to
punish severely, but largely became
of the Intimate knowledge of the
subject gained at the previous trial.
It Is known that District Attor
ney Sims has jeen investigating
ilosely the entire question of ship
ments from the corporations big
.eflnery at Whiting, Ind., near Chl
;ago, and has dlscoverod that there
iave been an astonishing number of
rebates. As a result of this system
the Standard OH Company has been
enabled to enter the Southern field
And control It. It has even driven
.'he Independent companies In Kan
fas and Oklahoma out of business
n their own States.
This control of the Southern mar
ret is said to have been accompllsh
id by secret rates from Whiting to
Sast St. Louis, from Whiting to
iSvansvllIe, Ind., and by way of
Jrand Junction, Tenn. Control of
the St. Louis market gives the cor
toratlon complete domination of the
Mississippi Valley, and is Bald that
evidence now is In the hands of the
Jovornmeiits showing the existence
of Illegal rates extending as far as
iouslana.
Millions Mu'le Honestly.
Detroit, June 2. Charles M,
"fchwab startled the delegates to the
Jollermakers Convention by declar-
'ng that American millionaires have
jiade their money honesty.
"There Is not a dishonest man
among all of them that I know of,"
ieclareu Mr. Schwab, with consldei
ftnphasis. "I can name you a great
ttany that have made their money
y, speculation, some In purchasing
re lands In the North with an antici
pation of increasing values and otb
ra by dabbling in stocks. There la
not much difference In either deal,
as both are speculation. A large
yart of money getting Is speculation
inyway, no matter tow you get It,
mt all of my millionaire friends are
ionest even though they are specula
Jars." Made HLs Wife Skip the Rope.

TAKT ISSUES STATEMEJ?T.
Oncoming HH Memorial Day Kpwh
at Grants Tomb.
Washington, June 4. Secretary of
War William H. Taft, whru appr'ned
that comment had been caused by
his reference In hit Memorial Day
addrcsk in New Tork to Grant't m
Ignatlor from the army before the
Civil War made the following state
ment tc the Associated Press:
"I am very much distressed that
anything I hare said should be con
strued to be an attack upon General
Grant's memory. I yield to no maa
In my admiration for General Grant,
in my high estimate of hit re
markable qualities and character
and of the great debt that the nation
owes him. In my memorial addreet
I attributed hit resignation from the
army .n 1864 to hU weakness for
SEC. WILLIAM H. TAFT.
strong drink, because, from Mr Cnr
land's life of General Grant and the
evdence he cites and from other h's
torles, I supposed It was undoubted
ly true
"I referred to the matter only be
cause It seemed to me it was one ct
the great victories of his life that he
ehsequently overcame the weakness.
The wonder of his life was that, with
all the discouragements that he en
countered befor.t the Civil War, In
cluding this he became he nation's
chief instrument in suppressing the
rebellion. I venture to say that no
impartial main can read my Memorial
Day address and say that I did not
give to General Grant a place In his
tory as high as that given h'm by any
of his historians or his admirers.
"The lives of our great men be
long to the country. If facts are
told showing that they had weak
nesses which they overcame, the
force of their successful example Is
greater to lift the youth of the coun
try up to emulate them than If they
were painted as perfect, without
temptation and without weakness."
Banker Attacks Bryan.
Chicago, June 2. David R. For
gan, President of the National City
Bank of Chicago, believes that W. J.
Bryan docs not know what a bank
account Is, despite the fact that the
Democratic leader has spoken many
times recently on banking problems.
Mr. Forgan addressed students of the
University of Chicago and swerved
for a moment from his general topic,
"The Dignity of Commercial Life,"
by taking a rap at Mr. xiryan.
"I heard Mr. Bryan speak for an
hour the other night on banking
problems," he said. Mr. Bryan Is
effective as an orator and forceful,
but all the time he spoke I could find
nothing In his talk to Indicate that
he had the slightest concoptton of
what a bank deposit is. And yet Mr.
Bryan is going about giving advice
on how to stop or prevent a panic."
Qnake Shakes Allentown.
A'.lentown, Penn., June 2. All Al
lentown was thrown Into a state of
excitement by what is believed to
have ueen an earthquake snock. The
shock was severe enough to rock
buildings, rattle windows, , clatter
crockery, tumble down two or three
shaky chimneys, and upset small
children. Rumor spread that a pow
der mill five miles from Allentown

various manufacturing plants had
exploded. But all these reports were
false, leaving the sole conclusion that
It was an earthquake. This section

ance on a Sunday twenty-four years

he had answered It sufficiently to con
vince the examiners that he knew
his profession.
