fits and that it maintained a high
schedule of tariffs to prevent ship
ments of oil by independent oil pro
ducers, i
Mr. Chesbro testified that the In
diana company transported practic
ally only the oil of the Standard com
pany. The counsel for the govern
ment allege that It will be shown that

posed there vfas some legal reason for
building these receiving stations on
the state lines of New York and New
Jersey, Pennsylvania and New Jersey
and Pennsylvania and Maryland, when
John G. Mllburn, chief of the defend
ant's counsel, Interposed and said he
gave the advice.

The Anglo-Russian Convention.
The comment at St. Petersburg
recently -on the Anglo-Russian con
vention Is marked by an underlying
conviction that the most dangerous
antagonist of Russia, as well as Great
Britain, is Germany, with which coun
try a decisive struggle is alleged to be
Impending. Writers characterize the
treaty as a guarantee of the safety of
Russia's and Great Britain's rear, Rus
sia renoucing the far east and middle
east In favor of an active policy In
the near east, from which Germany
had been skillfully deflecting her, and
Great Britain reassuring the safety
of her frontiers In India in order to
be able to use her full strength in op
position to Germany's aggressions.

statement to this effect, and even if

from many sections of the country
there are coming requests that the
president allow his name to be pre
sented to our next national conven
tion, but his will not be the case. He
will not be a candidate.'

PHYSICIAN A BURGLAR
Dr. Samuel E. Bolin Arrested
at New Rochelle.
A Newcomer In an Exclusive Section,
Woman Who Had Suffered From
Burglars Furnished the Information
Which Led to Dr. Bolin's Arrest,
How He Fooled the Police.
j
New Rochelle, X. Y., Oct. 1. Early
yesterday morning Dr. Samuel E. Bo
Jin of 16 Summit avenue, New Ro
chelle, was arrestd on a charge of
burglary by Detective Scott and Po
licemen Devenaugh and Chenowlth.
The arrest was made as the physician
stepped from a trolley car from New
"York. He was locked up In the New
Rochelle police station and later was
held in $3,000 ball by Justice Vanauk
en, before whom he was arraigned.
The arrest surprised the residents of
the Highland Park district, where Dr.
Bolln has recently bought an expens
ive bouse. The doctor was supposed
to have come from the Bronx, where,
according to his story, he owns valu
able property.
Mrs. Haug, who lives In Huguenot
street, furnished the Information
which caused Dr. Bolin's arrest. Her
apartments were entered recently by
a burglar who got away with several
hundred dollars worth of Jewelry, clo
thing and silverware. Mrs. Haug has
been worrying a great deal about burg
lars ever since and soon after 7 o'clock
last Wednesday morning she heard
some one working away on the door
of a hardware store at 4 Machouri
street, in the rear of her apartments.
She sent her husband after the po
lice, who arrived in time to see the man
run from the store and Jump over a
fence., They flred several shots af
ter the supposed burglar, but he dis
appeared. Then they started to search
the neighborhood, thinking that the
man might have hidden rear by. As
they were entering the - apartment
house In which Mrs. Haug lives the po
lice were confront by a hatless and
coatless man, who demanded to know
what all the shooting was about and
who they were anyway. He seemed
very much Interested when told that
a burglar bunt was on and offered to
assist.
Suggesting that perhaps the polLce
might have been mistaken In suppos
ing that their man had been the one
seen running and that the real thief
might be still hiding in the hardware
store, the stranger led the way into
the basement of the store building.
While the police were searching the
dark corners they lost sight of their
helper. They could find no one In
the apartment house who knew any
one corresponding to the man in shirt
sleeves, and they were very much puz
zled to account for his strange ap
pearance and disappearance until Dr.
Bolin was arested.
One of 'e policemen who took part
In last Wednesday's burglar hunt Is
certain that the doctor Is the kind
man who offered to help them find the
thief. Th police believe that Bolln
ran into the apartment house after
leaving the hardware store in the
rear and then coolly presented him
self as an Indignant householder who
had been disturbed by the shooting.
Bolln denies that he was In the neigh
borhood of the hardware store at the
time. He Insists that he Is the vic
tim of mistaken Identity. ,
Dr. Bolin told his captors that he
was connected with the staff of the Mt.
Sinai hospital, but the hospital au
thorities deny that they know him.
No one In New Rochelle knows any
thing about the doctor except that he
moved there recently with his wife
and hung out hfs physician's sign. The
police are looking up his record.
. SENATOR BORAH'S TRIAL.'
Prosecution Confronted by Task of
Connecting Senator Witu Fraud.
Boise, Idaho, Oct. 1. The second
week of the trial of Senator Borah,
charged with complicity in the Idaho
land frauds, began yesterday before
Federal Judge Whitson, with the gov
ernment attorneys still confronted by
the task of connecting the defendant
with the alleged unlawful combina
tion. During the first six days of the trial
the name of Senator Borah was sel
dom heard, and the evidence adduced
In behalf of the government had to do
mainly -with the activities of former
Governor Steunenberg.
U seems to be the policy of the de
fense to admit for the purpose of Sen
ator Borah's case that conspiracy did
exist, but to contend that Senator
Borah know nothing of its formation
or existence and that he acted In good
faith as attorney In handling land mat
ters. Senator Borah continues to ex
press confidence that he will be com
pletely exonerated.

the freight had left. Just as he hung
up the receiver he heard the crash.

unnecessary, as the cause of the
wreck was explained by the officials.

the wreckage dead. Three died In
the Boone hospital at Bellalre shortly
ntfer their removal there, and another,
an unidentified man, died later. He

BIG COPPER USERS ESCAPED
Westlnghouse and General Electric
Said to Have Bought Two Years'
Supply at 16.
PlttBburg, Oct. 1. What is alleged
to have been a scheme on the part of
the copper Interests to squeeze both
the Westlnghouse Interests and the
General Electric is hinted at in an offi
cial statement made by one of the
Westlnghouse board.
The Westlnghouse and General Elec
tric people are the heaviest users at
copper In the world. "That the recent
jump in coper prices was aimed at
these big consumers Is alleged, but It
Is said that both hud got beyond
range of trouble.
The Westlnghouse interests have
caused it to be announced that they
have not purchased an ounce of cop
per this year nor need they purchase
any to fill their contracts within the
present year. One year ago the West
lnghouse people got a tip that a
squeeze was coming and they bought
heavily at 1C cents, laying in a sup
ply for almost two years before the
prices were shot up to 20 cents. It Is
understood that the General Electric
company did the same. The dropping
of rates to 15 cents recently caused
the statement to be Issued here. It
is said here that copper is to be re
turned to 25 cents.

CZAR ASKED SCHWAB'S AID.
Friends Say Russian Government
Want to Americanize Shipbuild
ing Workt.
Pittsburg, Oct. 1. The announce
ment from St. Petersburg to the ef
fect that the Russian admiralty is en
gaged In plans for the reconstruction
of Its navy has caused a renewal of
the reports here that Charles M.
Schwab has been requested by the
Russian government to lend a helping
hand in reorganizing the Bteel works
of Russia, so as to enable the admiral
ty to construct a fleet In Russia.
It is said that Mr. Schwab has been
asked to aid in financing the reorgan
ized Russian steel plants with Amer
ican capital and to engage sufficient
(American skilled labor to hustle the
work along, which the Russians seem
unable to do themselves.
Last year Mr. Schwab visited Rus
sia, ostensibly for the purpose of get
ting orders for guns and ships. Mr.
Schwab's friends here say, however,
that he was requested to visit Russia
in an advisory capacity and to as
sume the financial management of the
rehabilitation of the Uhor steel plant.
Within the last few days It has
been announced from St. Petersburg
that the latter concern and other
shipbuilding plants to be constructed
are to be managed as outBide corpora
tions, but that the Russian admiralty
would stand back of these plants as
stockholders. It was shown to the
Russian government by Mr. Schwab,
It Is said, that more headway could be
made by contract work than by hav
ing the ships built by the government.
