A GREAT OIL TRUST
Rockefeller, Rothschild and
Nobel Have Combined.
ACCORDING TO THE DAILY MAIL
"The Tliree Interests Enter Into
Working Combination, to Con
trol the .World's Market
, tor Petroleum.
LONDON., July 30. In its issuo of this
morning, the Dally Mall -asserts that there
la no longer "any doubt that tho -three mon
ster oil Interests of Rockefeller, Rothschild
and Nobel have entered into a working
agreement.
."Thus," says tho -paper, "without any
publicity the greatest trust the world has
ever seen has sprung Into being."
This combination, the paper says, has
been hinted at in messages from Batoum
and Moscow and It has been more clearly
Bhown in the offers made to Russian oil
exporters by representatives of the Nobel
and Rothschild Interests for the absorp
tion of the whole of their output. The
exporters have been forbidden to sell
through the interests of their agency ex
cept at a price arranged by them or to
fight tho combined forces of the three oil
giants. This offer was made openly
and with the idea of maintaining prices,
and it has been refused, Russian export
ers preferring to fight. It was doubt
less this combine, continues the Dally
Mall, which Induced the Russian Gov
ernment to Issue invitations to an anti
trust conference. The spokesman of
the- great combine declare it means a
fight to the death and that the indepen
dent exporters cannot hope to win.
EMANCIPATION OP RUSSIANS.
Campaign
Begun by
an Exile at
Stuttgart.
ST. PETERSBURG. July 13. Peter
von Strove, the noted Marxist, who
went abroad in IflOL when forbidden to
live In St. Petersburg, has begun the
publication in Stuttgart of a Russian
periodical under the title "Oswobozh
denle" (Emancipation). In his prospectus,
Von Strove proclaims the extreme of his
paper to be emancipation of the Russian
people from police oppression, and the
attainment of individual and social lib
erty. In his prospectus he says:
"The social reaction which followed the
murder of Alexander II has completely
disappeared and the political reaction is
constantly being strengthened. The gov
ernment is making its last desperate ef
forts to perpetuate an antiquated order of
things. We shall defend the necessity of
granting to all classes equal rights to
tmtrammeled development and we insist
upon an Immense change.
"Emancipation Tvill not be the work of
one class, party or doctrine. We shall
Illumine all sides of Russian life; the
intelligence, especially of tho youths in
schools, the position of the organs of
local self-government and of the press
and the struggle for religious liberty. We
shall criticise the acts of the govern
ment, thus supplementing the oppressed
press in Russia.
"We shall show that economic improve- A
ment can come only through participation
of the people in tho government by elec
toral representation and shall expose the
exploitation of tho peasantry by high pro
tective duties and excessive taxation. Wo
ehali not be moderate. Let emancipation
he openly proclaimed by the common ac
tion of revolutionists and moderates. The
oppressors of the people cannot meet
euch a challenge squarely given."
This Journal will be circulated In Russia
by sealed letter-post. It recalls the fam
ous "Kolokol" (Bell) of Herzen, which
was the organ of emancipation during the
early years of Alexander II's reign. It
found Its way regularly onto the desk of
the then Emperor and was read by him
eagerly, though strictly forbidden for cir
culation in Russia. The influence of this
journal with Alexander II was at one
time very great.
Ten thousand three hundred of the
22,409 Finnish youth "who were
called upon to take the military
oath had complied with the order
July 6 and only 1D6 had expressed a
wish to serve. The greatest percentage of
compliance, 73 per cent, was in Abo
Blorneborg, where the Bishop of Abo's
conciliatory Influence was most effective.
The average percentage of compliance
-was 4G.G. The predominantly Finnish
Provinces have proved rather more stub
born than thoso with a mixed Swedish
population.
KITCHENERS FINAL DISPATCH.
"Warmly Praises Milner and the Co
lonial Governments.
LONDON, July 29. Many pages of tho
Gazette today are filled with Lord Kitch
ener's final dispatch on the Boer War
and his mention of officers and men who
distinguished themselves while he was
in command In South Africa. Tho s.ame
Issue announces the General's new title
as "Viscount Kitchener of Khartoum,
and of tho Vaal, and of Asphalt, in
County Suffolk."
In his last dispatch, Lord Kitchener said
of Lord Milner. the British High Com
missioner: "In many difficult situations it
was the greatest relief to me to feel that
I could always rely on his unfailing sym
pathy and assistance."
Referring to the deep obligation of the
army to the colonies, he said no request of
his had ever been refused by tho colonial
governments, and their consideration and
generosity only equaled the character and
quality of the troops they sent to South
Africa or raised in the country. Lieutenant-Colonel
Girouard, a Canadian officer,
is warmly praised. Lord Kitchener saying
"he is an officer of brilliant ability, and
I wish him all success In his new capacity
as head of a great civil department."
Almost all the leading Generals were
commended, including the writer's broth
er. General Fred Kitchener, who was de
scribed as an exceptionally keen and en
ergetic officer. General Lord Methuen.
Lord Kitchener said, had done more than
most officers toward maintaining the high
standard of personal courage, modesty
and humanity which characterize the Brit
ish army. "I chare his own deep regret,"
said the dispatch, "that his wounds pre
vented him from remaining In the field
until the conclusion of peace."
MARRIED BELOW HIS HANK.
Compulsory Retirement of a German
Privy Councillor.
BERLIN, July 29. The marriage of
Privy Councillor Leohnlng to the daugh
ter of an ex-Sergeant in the German
Army has caused Herr Leohnlng's com
pulsory retirement from the chief director
ship of taxes for the Province of Posen.
Herr Leohnlng, who was also Finance
Councillor, and who was a man of wealth,
has been circulating a pamphlet among
his friends explaining his acceptance of a
pension July 1 at the instance of Herr
von Rheibenbaben, the Prussian Minister
of Finance. The publication of this
pamyhlet in today's papers has caused
much comment, both socially and politi
cally. In this pamphlet Herr Leohnlng
prints the interchange of communications
between Berlin and the highest adminis
trative officials of the Province of Posen.
The Ober-Presldent of Posen told him. he
Toad nothing to say again his fiancee, but
that it was Impossible for him to consent
to 'the marriage of one of the highest of
ficials in the province with a daughter of
an ex-Sergeant; 'that it was as if the
Colonel of a regiment proposed to do such
a -thing. A Ministerial Councillor or a
superior government Councillor might pos
sibly marry a Sergeant's daughter, but a
Privy and Finance Councillor could not.
Tho Ober-Presldent said also that the
commanding General and the police presi
dent shared his views on the matter. The
father of Herr Leohning's wife is now a
secretary in one of the government offices
at Posen.
Some -weeks after his marriage the Fi
nance Ministry at Berlin asked Herr
Leohnlng to retire, which he did. Herr
Leohnlng affirms that his opinions in the
matter of the 'Ministry's Polish policy had
nothing to do with his retirement from
office, but notwithstanding thl3 it is be
lieved the opinions probably did have
somethng to do with the Councillor's re
tirement. Herr Leohnlng affirms also that most of
the high Prussian officials of the province
of Posen condemn the government's

MINEORKERS MAY ASK
FEDERAL JUDGE JOHN JAY JACKSON.
The United Mln Workers may try to obtain the impeachment of Federal
Judge John Jay Jackson, of Went Virginia, who restrained them from holding
meetings to Induce men to quit work and Imprisoned a number of the orfanlxers
for violating an injunction. The plan of action Is not definitely outlined, but It is
probable that the Impeachment proceedings will be begun soon, it Judge Jackson,
After a final hearing, refutes to dissolve the Injunction. Secretary Wilson admits
that the miners contemplate this course, and a complete transcript of the case,
including the complaints and Judge Jackson's decision, will be prepared for sub
mission to President KooMvelt and the Senate. The miners also Intend to give to
tho public the evidence In the case. Wilton says that the miners will not ask tho
President to Interfere with the Injunction, as he says they realize that the Pres
ident Is without power as to Injunctions; but if the habea.8 corpus proceedings fall
to release the organizers the President will be asked to pardon them. The habeas
corpus proceedings will be begun as soon as the papers can be made out.
A-
velllance of Polish societies. Herr Loeh
nlng, although favoring measures, to Ger
manize Poland, is of the opinion that this
should be carried out lees ostentatiously.
The pamphlet Is th subject of noticeable
editorial articles In the Liberal news
papers today, which predict attacks upon
the government in the diet. The Vos
slscho Zettung says It is Impossible to
write about the matter coolly, and that it
reads like the time's preceding the battle
of Jena, when Prussian aristocracy
reached the acme of class Insolence.
A Liberal Victory.
LONDON, July 29. The bye-election for
members of the House of Commons to
represent North Leeds resulted in the elec
tion of Rowland Barren, Liberal. Mr.
Barren received 753S votes .to 6761 cast for
Sir Arthur Lawson. Conservative. This
seat also was vacant by the elevation to
the peerage of William T. Jaakson, Con
servative, who had sat for North Leeds
since 1S90.
Tho loss of the state for North Leeds
In tho House of Commons has filled tho
supporters of the new Balfour Adminis
tration with dismay. The utmost inge
nuity of tho editorial writers of the Con
servative press is quite Ineffectual In ex
plaining away the conversion of the Tory
majority to a Liberal majority. The
Morning Post, which is the frankest Con
servative critic, admits candidly that out
side of the Birmingham area, which it
says is a "Chamberlainlto". preserve,
thero is seemingly no seat in the House
on whose loyalty the present government
can absolutely rely.
Lieutenants "Will Be Cashiered.
LONDON. July 29. A military court
of Inquiry called to investigate the scan
dal caused by the alleged persecution
of Second Lieutenant Gregson, of the
Second Life Guards, has held av secret ses
sion at Windsor. Lieutenant Gregson and
two officers testified. The evidence showed
that Lieutenant Gregson's carpet had been
torn up, his kit damaged and his uniform
ruined. Much interest has been excited,
by tho episode, -which has already been
tho subject of Parliamentary questions.
It Is said at tho barracks that two Lieu
tenants will probably be cashiered as a
result of the escapade.
London Fire Horror Xnqnent.
LONDON, July 29. Tho inquest Into the

in which nine young girls were burned
to death, was concluded today, after
having occupied tho attention of the press
and public for several weeks and having
subjected tho London fire department to
much unfavorable comment. The Jury
found that the General Electric Com
pany was guilty of gross neglect and of
evasion of the factory acts. Chief Wells'
explanation that tho fire department had
adequate equipment was characterized as
unsatisfactory.

ROME, July 29. King Victor Emmanuel
and tho Dowager Queen, Margaret, to

months' discussion the scope of tho arbi
tration in regard to the disputed house
tax question has been settled, says a To,

XO FOUNDATION FOR SINISTER RU
MORS ABOUT HIS CONDITION.
Preparations for the Coronation
Continue Future Movements of
the Royal Fatally.
LONDON, July 23. The latest and moat
reliable information indicates that King
Edward's doctors were not mistaken In
fixing August 9 as the date upon which
His Majcety could be crowned. Tho sin
ister rumors which have pervaded all
classes for the last few days now appear
to have lost that semblance of probability
which made even the members of the
Cabinet nervous lest another postpone
ment of the coronation might be necessi-
gen-jtatcd. The apprehension that King Bd
ward would be unable to stand the strain
of the coronation ceremony has been
FOR HIS REMOVAL.
greatly lessened by the announcement
that His Majesty Is now permitted to
use his feet and, with the aid of a stick,
has done a little walking.
A late telegram from Cowcs, saying
that nearly all the restrictions upon the
King's diot have been withdrawn, has
beea welcomed as evidence that the re
cent ominous deductions were drawn
without due allowance for the doctors'
extreme caution. While the King was
testing his ability to walk, two Jackles
stood at his side. After this experiment,
which boded well for his fulfilling the
necessary coronation ceremony nt West
minster Abbey, King Edward sat on the
deck of the royal yacht and watched the
races of the small yachto off Cowes.
According to the present arrangements.
King Edward and Queen Alexandra will
leave Cowes either August 6 or 8 for
Buckingham Palace and will return, to
tho royal yacht August IS, when the en
tire fleet will pass before King Edward
and salute him, thus making a second
naval review. After his return to the
yacht, tho King Is expected to take an
extended cruise to the northward and
subsequently to spend some weeks at
Balmoral, where preparations for the ar
rival of Their Majesties have beeh com
menced. Sir Joseph C. DImsdale, Lord Mayor of
London, expects King Edward to visit
tho City of London the week ending
October 11. when a great luncheon will be
held in the Guild Hall, which Is to be
followed by a royal procession through
the South of London.
HERO "WORSHIP AT THE CAPE.
Ovations to Generals Botha, Delarey
anu Dewet. ,
CAPE TOWN, July 29. Generals Delarey
and Botha were given an ovation yester
day at Stellenbosch. They were driven
to the Town Hall and each of the car
riages wero drawn by GO students. At a
luncheon which followed, the students
acted as waiters. General Botha, in a
feeling address, said the day of sur
render was the most painful of his 'Ate,
but now that it had been done he prayed
earnestly that his hearers should con
sider it God's will. Although Afrikander
nationality, in a manner, had been buried,
it would remain the most important fac
tor in the social life of South Africa.
General Botha paid a tribute to ex
Prosident Steyn's abilities as a s fate
man. "Now let us stop bothering our
selves about politics," said the General,
"and try to make ourselves happy in
South Africa, because wo have no home
elsewhere."
The hero worship of tho Boer command
ers was strikingly illustrated at the mar
riage of General Delarey's daughter to
his secretary, Ferreria, at the Dutch Re
formed Church. Tho approaches to tho
edifice were packed, and the congregation
cheered Generate Botha, Dewet and De
larey as they entered tho church. Dewet
was carried from tho church on the shoul
ders of his more enthusiastic admirers.
When the bridal party appeared, the con
gregation arose and cheered until the min
ister threatened to stop the ceremony or
clear the church.

AGITATION IN FRANCE ABATING.
Peaceful Solution of Catholic School
Question Is Expected.
PARIS. July 29. The agitation in con
nection with the circular issued by Pre
mier Combes with regard to the closing of
the unauthorized congregatlonall3t schools
has abated greatly, even In Brittnny, ow
ing to the circumstances that none of the
recalcitrant schools will be forcibly closed
until special decrees to this end have been
signed for each department. In many de
partments such action will not be neces
sary, as the congreeallons have submitted,
and, moreover, the decision of the gov
ernment not to close thoso schools for
which authorization was not asked, owing
to misinterpretation of the law, has had
something of a quieting effect. The lead
ers of the agitation still talk of organ
izing popular protests, but tho life seems
to be out of the movement, so far as
Paris is concerned. The Socialists have de
termined upon counter-demonstrations to
every clerical meetln. Some disturbances
in the proxinces, especlallj' in Finlsterra,
are' probable when the police close the
schools; but there is evidently a lull in the
excitement for the moment.
The only incident reported today was
that a group of women at Rodez, in the
Department of Aveyron, attacked a lay
teacher and compelled him to take refuge
in tho. communal schools. The teacher
was followed by a crowd shouting "Down
with Combes." The arrival of the gen
Oarmes prevented further mischief.
German Pig-iron Tariff.
BERLIN, July 20. The Government
succeeded In getting the plg-lron clauses
of the tariff bill adopted by the tariff
committee of the Reichstag today with
out amendment, but only after strenuous
opposition and long debate. Count von
Posadowskl-Wehner, the Imperial Secre
tary of State for the Interior, opposed a
plea to prohibit importation based on
alleged attempts of the American trust
to unload Its goods In Germany at ruin
ous prices.
He declared that such prohibition would
Injure other German industries. In con
clusion ho said that without the protec
tive tariff of 1S79, the revival of German
trade would have been Impossible and
that It would be a criminal mistake to
abandon It now while foreign countries
were combining to form a great protec
tionist union.
French Admiral Disciplined.
PARIS, July 29. Two distinguished
naval officers. Vlce-Admlral Beaumont,
Maritime Prefect of Toulon, and Rear
Admlral Sevran, commanding the Atlantic
division, hae been summarily relieved of
their commands by order of President
Loubet. Rear-Admiral Sevran's downfall
Is attributed to sensational developments
which led i.p to the recent suicide of Com
mander BarrjV who shot himself In the
cabin of the cruiser Tage while off Mar
tinique. Rear-Admiral Sevran was aboard
the Tage at the time. De Beaumont's
disciplining is said to be due to a recently

TUNIS, July 29. The trial of the assas

ment. The Public Prosecutor, in closing
his speech, reviewed the allegations
brought in behajf of Mme. de Mores, that
local functionaries had been Implicated,
and declared that the evidence submitted
to that effect had failed to prove any col
lusion. -Seventeen others accused of the
assassination of the Marquis do Mores
were sentenced in default, six to death and
11 to hard labor.
