H. C. Folgor, Jr., Secretary of tl.

ment of Negotiations For Lord
Cowdray's Oil Interests.
New York, Sept. 10.-n. C. Folper
Jr., secretary of the Standard Oil coai
puny, in reply tn a Washington ill.'
patch saying that Standard Oil was
negotiating to take over the oil hoM
Ings of Lord Cowdray In Mexico, alsc
intimating that John W. Gates had
previously acted as the Standard's
agent in this matter and that the
Standard had helped finance the
Mexican revolution, made this state
ment:
"In tho course of the late revolt
tion in Mexico tho Standard Oil com
pany had occasion to deny fully and
emphatically that it had ever contrib
uted In any way to tho revolutionary
cause. Now, In the face of recent re
iterations, it wishes to repeat its de
nial. In being revived tho Btory has
had an additional misstatement
tagged to it, .namely, that the Texas
company (an oil corporation identified
with the late John W. Gates) is a sub
sidlary of and owned and controlled
by the Standard Oil company. That
is absolutely untrue. Tho Standard
Oil company has no interest In the
Texas company, and any negotiations
Lord Cowdray may have had with .Mr.
Gates in respect to tho Pearson prop
ertles was of no concern to the Stand
ard Oil company.
The statement leaves unanswered
the report that negotiations between
the Standard Oil and Lord Cowdray
are now In progress for the taking
over of the Pearson .holdings in Mex
ico by the Standard Oil company.

PROTECT GUNNERS' EARS.
Navy Looking For Guard to Soften
Terrific Concussion.
An exhaustive study is being mc.de
by tho medical corps of the navy to
devise means of protecting the hearing
of American sailors from the disas
trous effects of gunfire. Ear safe
guards used in foreign navies aro be
ing compared with similar devices now
supplied to American seamen, and It Is
expected that n protector shortly will
bo evolved that will adequately resist
tho terrific concussion of the big guns.
Tho oubject is being Investigated by
Dr. E. M. Shlpp of the naval medi
cal corps.
Tho oar protectors now used aro fill
ed with cotton. Tho great shock from
one of tho mammoth guns is likely
to rupture an eardrum and produce
deafness at once unless tho dellcato
organ ia properly protected; also It
ta feared that tho constant firing of
tho small arms, such as tho servlco
rifle, may gradually produco tho same
effect.
