moneys due the state and pay all of Its
debts.
Liquor Men Start Suit.
At the time the suits were instituted
about JS.iO.ouo had been collected, and there
was still about ISO0.0CO due. Bills for
Bomethinsr over J600.000 were presented by
the liquor dealers, and when the Commis
sion declined to pay them as promptly as
the creditors considered it desirable, they
brought suits for their collection.
In their petitions in the Circuit Court
they alleced that the members of the
ommisslon had entered into a conspiracy
to hold the funds for their own selfish
purpose; In support of which assertion
they declared the money was deposited
In banks in which members of the Com
mission were officers or stockholders.
Commissioners Alleged Plot.
On the other hand, the Commifwloners
RlleRed a coalition amonB the creditors to
collect excessive sums and asserted they

of any liabilities that niljtht be Justly due.

PARIS. April 6. T3ie newspapers of
Paris show genuine aJarm todav at the
violent character of the speeches deliv
ery at tly worklngmen s meetings held in
this city' yesterday under the auspices of
the revolutionary latoor organizations, to
formulate a plan of campaign against the

the agreement of a large section of the
state employes to make common cause
with the trades unionists and the appoint
ment of a secret committee empowered
to call strikes.
Public opinion is rapidly becoming ter
rified, the papers declare, at the belief
that a bloody insurrection Is imminent
and the statements of some of the speak

fight nor work i--ihe event of a war is
regarded as a particularly alarming pre

lars. History of Company Told.
The brief filed by Kellogg reviews the
history of the company and declares the
testimony shows that various defendants
have pursued a system of unfair competi
tion whereby independent companies sell
ing and marketing petroleum have either
been driven out of business or so re
stricted that the Standard has practically
controlled the prices and monopolized
commerce in petroleum products.
The Standard. Oil Company, the brief
alleges, is particularly able to carry on
this competition for the reason that it
does not sell its product at central mar
kets or through ordinary channels as do
uinci oruinary manufacturers. It
markets its products to the retailer In
every village and community in the
United States and it sells directly to the
consumers. It is also held that the tes
timony taken in Standard prosecutions
shows that the company, through the
Galena Signal Oil Company also controls
aoout 97V, per cent of the lubrication
oils and that it sells to most railroads
at enormous profits. This is evidenced by
the net earnings of the company which
in 1906 were about 132 per cent on the
capital stock actually paid in and about
105 per cent on a liberal valuation of the
capital used.
It is also charged the prices to most
railroads are substantially double the
prices charged to a few favored lines,
notably the Pennsylvania. For instance,'
the brief says, the New York Central Raill
road for 10 years has paid about 100 per
cent per gallon more than the Pennsyl
vania. It is also stated that wherever the
Standard can do so. it has made contracts
whereby it has either marketed a part or
all of the product of the independent re
fineries or has limited the output.
One of the evidences of monopoly, it 13
charged. Is the company's enormous earn
ings, summarized as follows:
Tremendous Profits Shown.
"The Standard Oil Trust and the Stan
dard Oil Company on an Investment of
169.024.480 had earned up to the end of
1906. S38.7S3.7S3. Adding the estimated
profits 'of 1907 and 190S, we .have substan
tially a billion dollars earned by this
company in 27 years with an original In
vestment of about $9,000,000."
Further on the brief says:
"It has usually been claimed for large
corporations in this country that they
have increased business and decreased the
cost to the consumer, but in the case of
the Standard it has during the 10 or 15
years actually raised the price to the re
tailer and this is a good deal more than
tne prices or other products, although the
price of its raw material and cost; of man
ufacture and sale during these years has
increased very little if any."
It is said that from 1874 to 1SS2 the
Standard obtained control of practically
all of the pipe lines then existing and
brought them together under the control
of the National Transit Company, and
ever since it has sought to prevent or de
stroy pipe line competition. It first sought
to control the Tidewater Pipe Company,
then the only pipe line to the seaboard
and succeeded in getting an agreement
for division of the business. Through this
and other agreements the Standard, it is
alleged, has at the present time control
of about 95 per cent of the transportation
of crude oil to the Atlantic seaboard,
which gives it a tremendous advantage!
Recognizing the importance to the Stan
dard of railway transportation, its offi
cials and their associates during the last
10 years, it Is said, have become ulrectors
in many of the leading railroad systems
of the United States. For instance, the
Standard interests have In Chicago,' Mil
waukee & St. Paul four directors: Union
and Southern Pacific and Santa Pe. two
each; New York, New Haven & Hartford.
New York Central and allied lines. Mis
souri Pacific. Boston & Maine, Wisconsin
Central. Rutland Railroad and others, one
each.
Not Discouraging Enterprlso-
The brief says that "tbe Government
does not wish to be understood as discour
aging enterprises or as taking a position
against legitimate competition, but if the
Sherman act means anything. It means a
monopoly acquired by such methods of
oompetition as are pursued by the Stand
ard Oil Company. Unless It is enforced.
tne small corporation or industry wish
ing to pnzaffp in htiRlnps, will Ka..A aK
lutely no opportunity. The testimony Is
vaiuame as showing the intention of the
Standard Oil Company to monopolize the
commerce In oil. In many districts it has
an absolute monopoly. We mean by ab
solute monopoly that in those districts it
does all the himineea anil Vi i d r. 1 i . 1 ....... ,1

Standard dictates and confine themselves
to a small percentage of the trade."
The brief covers with much detail the
history of the company from its organiza
tion to the present time, and asserts that
Its methods have been in gross violation
of law, and asks the court to annul the
contracts, under which the Standard Oil
Company operates and dissolve the cor
poration. NAPLES GIVES WELCOME

pecially touched by this and. In ex
pressing thanks for the gracious' thought
he said: , '
"In a year from now you will be in a
position to see whether I deserve such a
wish."
Mr. Roosevelt told the American Am
bassador later that he should assuredly
go to the Vatican -to see the Pope It he
visited Rome.
Three hours elapsed between the ar
rival of the Hamburg and the landing
of the ex-President, as Mr. Roosevelt
wished personally to superintend the
handling- of the baggage, of which he
had a very large quantity. Meanwhile
he was the object of a continual ova
tion from Italian immigrants. who
cheered every time they caught a glimpse
or him from the moment the Hamburg
anchored.
As the vessel steamed Into the harbor,
the Italian men-of-war. several German
ships and a large contingent of yachts
and various craft ran up their bunting,
which fluttered in the high wind. The
bands on the ship struck up the Amer
ican National anthem and. as Mr. Roose
velt stood on the bridge and watched the
scene, he remarked that It was some
what ear-splitting, but picturesque and
magnificent.
Great Roar From Crowd.
The great crowd ashore, which had
been waiting for hours to see the ex
President, became exceedingly impatient
at the delay, but even when the Scor
pion's launch, with Mr. Roosevelt aboard,
did come ashore, they were ignorant of
the fact, and the distinguished visitor
reached the landing stage virtually un
discovered. When, however, he appeared
in an automobile, a great roar broke
from the crowd and he was cheered con
tinuously. The ovation moved Mr. Roose
velt to remark:
"It seems that the Italians can make
as much noise as the Americans, after
all."
Arriving at the hotel. Mr. Roosevelt
received with the greatest cordiality
those who had gathered to welcome him.
He talked with Guglielmo Ferrero, the
historian, who returned recently from
an extended visit to the United States
and whom Mr. Roosevelt recognized im
mediately. Luncheon was served in the hotel,
among those at the table with the ex
President being his son Kermlt. Ambas
sador Grlscom. Consul Crowninshield and
Mrs. Crowninshield. Lieutenant-Com
mander Logan. John W. Garrett, first
secretary or the embassy; Winthrop
Chandler, Mrs. Garrett and Miss Cart

or neaun ana spirits, and expressed him
self as looking forward impatiently t
his arrival at Mombassa.
After the luncheon Mr. Roosevelt pro
ceeded In a motorcar with Mr. Griscom
to Capodimonte to meet the Duke and
oi Aosia at their palace, whicl
is the most magnificent In the Neaooll
tan province. Mr. Roosevelt admitted
that this visit was int
to him, not only because of his desire
iu uiCTi ine mine and Duchess person
any, but because of the official nature
of the meeting, the Duke representing
'r icior r.mmanuel.
Mr. Roosevelt was welcomed at th
palace entrance and the Duke received
him in private, the la-n .-...-i-

The good impression was mutual, as
while Mr. Roosevelt was charmed with
the Duchess, .the latter said he was the
most Interesting American she had ever
met she might almost say the most in

The party went to the museum, where
Mr. Roosevelt said he would like to pass
hours. The bronzes especially attracted
him and he said:
"I shall now get an idea of what I want
to see when I return. Such a museum
deserves days of study; it has been en
tirely transformed since I was here be

Warming Resid
We are sometimes asked whether hot water or steam
is a better method of heating than warm air. As we sell
all three system-, for residences the warm-air method is '
recommended by us as being: the most desirable
First Because heat can be obtained ijuicker. In a
U inter climate such as is enjoyed by Portland and the
I aoific Northwest it is hardly necessary to keep the fire
burning all the time, and consequently a method of ob
taining heat in 15 minutes is superior to a method which
requires an hour to get the same result.
Second Because it furnishes . adequate ventilation.
This cannot be accomplished by a direct steam or hot
. water heating plant. It is of the utmost importance to
health that clean, pure air be furnished in abundance,
and when this is supplied, warmed up io the rig-lit tem
perature, the ideal condition is getting within hailiii"
: distance. ' '
Third It is even more ' economical in its operation
than hot water. This speaks for itself. But it must be a
good furnace and it must be properly installed. We do it

a minute description of the "whimsical

"Theodore Roosevelt speaks French

He speaks simply and graciously of him
