Chicago Grand Jury Spends
Little Time in Form
ing Opinion,
STORAGE CHARGE NOT PAID
Nineteen Counts for Receiving Re
bate From Lake Shore Railroad
Mean $380,000 Maximum
Fine More Indictments,
CHICAGO, Aug. 8. An Indictment
charging- the Standard Oil Company
with receiving rebates In the form of
nonpayment of storage charges to cer
tain railroad companies was returned
by the Federal grand Jury before Judge
S. H. petti ea this afternoon. The Indict
ment camo as a surprise, Inasmuch as
the errand Jury had Just begun the In
vestlgatlon today. The Standard Oil
Company Is the only defendant, no of
ficials of the company being named.
The bond of the defendant was fixed by
Judge Bethea at 125,000.
This is the case investigated by the
grand Jury In Cleveland, O., where It
was found that the grand Jury had no
Jurisdiction. The testimony taken there
was transferred to Chicago, and tne
documents In evidence were Identified
by witnesses who testified In Cleveland.
Jt was on this testimony and evidence
that today's indictment was returned
eo quickly.
Possible Fine Is $380,000.
The Indictment contains 19 counts,
each count constituting a separate
charge. The true bills come under the
Elklns law, which provides a fine of
from $1000 to $20,000 for each violation.
Under this indictment, should the Gov
ernment procure a conviction on the
trial of the issues, a fine of $380,000 as
a maximum under the Elklns law may
be assessed.
Did Not Pay Storage.

pany certain concessions the oil com
pany benefited to the extent of $8507
,4rlng a period of time from August,
tn Vphrnarv ThA indictment.
as explained by the Government attor
neys, means that in 19 instances cer
tain consignments of oil for the Stand
ard Oil Company were stored by the
Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Rail
road Company and that the railroad
Company received no payment of 3
cents per ton per day-from the oil com
pany for such storage, but that Its
competitors were compelled to pay
this amount. This Is equivalent to
granting a concession, it is charged,
the nonpayment of the storage charges
being practically a rebate In favor of
the oil company. Each count sets up a
discrimination of from $300 to $500 a
month in favor of the oil company.
It will be necessary for officials of
the Standard Oil Company to appear In
court and present bonds of $25,000 for

fied. Mr. Roberts was given a large
number of tariff schedules of various
railroads handling Standard Oil busi
ness, which were taken before the

WILL FIGHT FOB CONTROL
EXCITING MEETING OF WELLS-

Surplus, Which Stockholders
Want Distributed.
NEW YORK, Aug. 8 (Special.) The
annual meeting of the Wells-Fargo Ex
press Company, which is to be held at
10 o'clock Thursday, promises to be one
of the most exciting and at the same

held by rich corporations, excluding In
surance organizations, during the last five
years. A fight ffcr control, the first In
its existence, is to be made and on it
hinges the distribution of the surplus,
which is alleged to be very large.
For years, certain stockholders of the
Wells-Fargo Company have complained
that the affairs of that corporation were
run more for the benefit of certain in
siders than for the stockholders general
ly. The assertion has been freely made
that figures have been "juggled," so that
they did not show at a casual glance the
enormous surplus which is to the credit
of the company, , and which certain
stockholders believe should be paid out
to the shareholders, either in added divi
dends or legal grants.

T
AND LOSES GIRL
Mormon Elder's Severity With
Scotch Convert Proves
His Undoing.
FAIR PROMISES NOT KEPT
Was to Have Good Home at Shelley,
Idaho, but Got Two "Lather-
ings" on the Voyage
to Boston.
' OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Aug. 8. Commissioner-General
Sargent of the Immigration Bureau to
day received the report on the case of
Susan Henry, the 11-year-old Scotch, girl
deported after being brought to this
country by Elder Emanuel Bachman, of
Shelley, Idaho. The report shows that
Bachman had not legally adopted the
girl, but attempted to bring her In under
bogus adoption papers. Her parents are
Mormons and Bachman says they have
written consent that he bring their
daughter to this country, though he had
known them only two months.
The girl, when first landed, said she
came here willingly, but, when cross
Questioned alone, cried to be taken back
to her home, saying her father had al
ways supported her and could Jo so still.
She said Bachman "lathered" her twice
on the voyage across, entering her state
room one morning to whip her as she
was putting on her stockings.
When Bachman first took charge of the
girl, he promised to give her a good home
and educational advantages and promised
to let her play on his "fine" $100 piano,
but his cruelty began when they boarded
the ship and continued clear to Boston.
After investigation, the immigration
officers ordered the girl sent home- be
cause she was not legally adopted, be
cause it was evident that Bachman would
ill-treat her and because in her tender
years she would be better off with her
parents. Technically she was returned
because "likely to become a public
charge."
Mr. Sargent says the Mormons have
been operating extensively through
Northern Europe and in the British Isles
and have made many converts. They
have been bringing these people here in
parties of 50. many men, but more par
ticularly attractive, buxom grown girls
and women. The mere fact that these
proselytes are Mormons is not sufficient
ground to debar them and, unless it can
be shown that they are polygamous or
liable to become public charges, they
must be admitted.

Supreme Court Rulings.
OLTMPLV, Wash., Aug. 8.-;(SpecIal.)
s
The Supreme Court today handed down
decisions in the following cases:
State of Washington, respondent, vs.
Clinton Buchanan, appellant, from Walla
Walla County, affirmed. Appellant was
convicted of embezzlement. He was
charged with accepting $280 to pay for
erecting a windmill end pump and then
converting the money to his own use
without performing the work.
Gwin H. Imhoof, appellant, vs. North
western Lumber Company, respondent,
from Chehalis Connty, affirmed. This was
a personal injury case. The plaintiff's
attorney, in his statement to the Jury,
offered to prove that the transfer dock
of the company's mill on which plain
tiff was Injured was negligently and im
properly constructed. This proof was
ruled out on the ground that there was
no allegation of the kind la the complaint-William
Smith, respondent, vs. Michi
gan Lumber Company, appellant, Cheha
lis County, affirmed. This was a personal
injury case, in which the respondent waa
employed as a mill hand in the appel
lant's mill, was awarded $3375. Appeal
was based principally on the ground that
the lower court refused to give certain
Instructions asked for on behalf of ap
pellant. The Supreme Court finds that
Instructions covering the same ground
were given by the court, although not In
the language requested. This, says the
higher court, is sufficient.

DXJXNE PARTS FROM HEARST
Defeat of Independent at Primaries
Stiffens Chicago Democrats.
CHICAGO, Aug. 8. (Special.) Mayor
Edward F. Dunne reached the parting of
the ways with William R. Hearst in Chi
cago politics today. He sent his repre
sentative Into the camp of the Sullivan
Loeffler forces, whjch will control the
county Democratic convention tomorrow.
and declared his Intention to support the
entire slate. Thomas Carey, chairman of
the county committee, who has borne the
brunt of the battle for the harmony sup
ported by Hearst, through his representa
tives, announced he was beaten and
would abide by the result.
The Democratic leaders declare that
they are not afraid of the Hearst 'inde
pendent ticket and, unless Hearst, who is
expected in Chicago this week, overrides
his lieutenants, he will In effect be read
out of the Democratic party in Chicago.
Behind the move of the Mayor the
Mayoralty election of next Spring looms
up as the controlling factor. It was today
said that Hearst has already prepared to
throw over Dunne for Clarence R. Dar
row. In the possibility of a three-cornered
fight among Harrison, Darrow and
Dunne, the Mayor Is reported to have
seen a great light, and to have made up
his mind to do politics for himself In the
future. All fear of the Influence of Hearst
seems to have vanished.

ANXIOUS FOR RAGE
Al Pape, Champion Oarsman,
Wants Match With Gloss.
WOULD ACCEPT CHALLENGE
Calif ornlan Says He Will Quit the
Business if He Fails to Make
Portlander Look Like 15
Cents Points to Record.
AL Pape, the San Francisco oarsman
who holds the title of champion single
sculler of the Pacific Coast, writes to a
friend in the city that he Is ready and
willing to meet Ed Gloss, of the Port
land Rowing? Club, but he Intimates that
since he holds the tlUe It Is not befitting
In him to be to anxious to arrange a
match. Pape Intimates that whenever
Gloss makes B direct challenge he will
enter negotiations for a match race.
"Gloss was never ahead of me In any
match we rowed," writes Pape, "and his
statement that he was leading me when
we rounded the turn In the Lewis and
Clark contest for the championship of
the Pacific Northwest Is all bosh, as any
of his friends and the public generally
know. Coach Murphy, who trained Gloss,
even remained away from the race be
cause he did not want to see him defeat
ed, as he knew well enough he would be.
"I simply played with Gloss upon that
occasion, and If I ever get Into another
race with him I will make him look like
16 cents or quit the business.
"Under the circumstances of having
rowed for the championship of the Pa
cific Northwest at the Lewis and Clark
Fair last year and since the contest was
so designated and open to all under those
conditions, I think it is the height of Im
pudence for a person who was never any
nearer to me In a race than the start to
be continually claiming the champion
ship." Pape does not designate any conditions
under which he will row the Portland
man. He has offered to meet Gloss on
the Oakland estuary in December for a
side bet, but Gloss refuses to row under
any condition which might prejudice his
amateur standing and further claims that
he will be unable to get Into condition in
the Winter time. He wants to meet the
San Franciscan at the Astoria regatta,
but while Pape has never formally re
plied to this proposition, he -In all prob
ability would claim that he could not get
Into condiUon so soon.
It looks very much as If both men
were beating around the bush consider
ably when the whole question could be
brought to a heaT ij Gloss would but
make a direct challenge to Pape and se
cure either an acceptance or a refusal.

day, "I was perfectly assured of the crim

say as yet precisely how far the frauds
operated by Stensland have been carried,
but It la to a great length that Is proved
by papers already brought to light."
Mr. Jones confirmed that the frauds
amount to over $1,000,000.

consist of nearly 200 Items, ranging from
$1000 to $15,000 each. The names forged
are those of directors and stockholders in
the bank and of persons associated with
Stensland, in other business ventures.

Stensland may lead to his arrest. For
five years he has been a severe sufferer
from bronchial diseases. This almost
caused his death one Winter. Since then
he has been forbidden by his physician to
go out at night. Stensland's condiUon is
