Washington, May 3. Stnndnrd Oil
is about to go against something
stronger than tho state of Missouri.
Tho United States government has got
around to tho point at last whore it has
a caso against tho paront of all trusts,
and, loss all the ndvnnce reports aro
greatly cxaggorntod, magnate who havo
heretofore defied tho authorities and
the people will soon bo in. tho hardest
corner thnt has ever fallen to their lot.
Congress and tho country will know
all about it when Commissioner of Cor
porations Garfield's much-heralded re
port on his investigation of tho oil
combination is sent to tho senato and
house on Friday. It will bo submitted
by the President, who has received it
from tho commissioner, nnd it will be
accompanied by an executive) message.
Greatest Conspiracy on Earth.
The message in all probability will
havo for its objective tho clinching of
the effective rnllroad-rate regulation
which the administration is determined
to secure, as tho report Itself will show
how favoritism in rates nnd rebates
has built up the most stupendous polit-co-finnncifil
industrial institution in
tho world a power that not only con
trols the output nnd the price of the
commodity that gives its name, but
which, through a handful of men, domi
nates practically every branch of trade
and commerce in tho country, nnd hold
the transportation systems themselves
within its grasp.
Imprisonment for Somebody.
Ofllcials of tho Standnrd Oil Com
pany, moreover, have something more
in store to worry about than an ex
posure of tho rebates on which their
corporation has fattened at tho expense
of the vast multitude of shippers, who
have had to pay the freight on which
tho railroads in turn pay dividends.
Criminal prosecution for conspiracy un
der the provisions of tho Sherman anti
trust law stares them in the face.
Rebating, when tho offenders arc
caught at it nnd brought to justice,
means fines. Conspiracy, when appre
hended, means imprisonment for some
body, if duty is performed fully. It U
asserted on the best of authority that
Mr. Garfield, in the language thnt is
best understood, 'bas the goods" on
the Standard Oil Company, tne Mine
as he hnd them on the beef trust, with
the essential difference that immunity
baths havo not been administered in
j tho present instance.
o
Charges Dismissed.
New York, May 3. The board of re
view of the National Trotting Associa
tion dismissed tho charges mado by
Murray Howe, secretary of the Mem
phis Trottintr Association, that Lon
j Dillon had been tampered with jmt
prior to the raco for tho gold cup ut
, Memphis in October, 1904, when Majcr
Delinar defeated her.
And Situation in San Fran-
Cisco Grows Steadily
Better
jSan Francisco, May 3. With tho
rapid extension of tho street car ser
vice,nnd tho increase in tho number of
men at work in tho ruins, tho situation
grows stendily better. Each day sees
more lines in operation. Owing to tho
fact thnt the cnblo clots aro badly
twisted, tho -cable roads will bo nbol
isfied and overhead trolleys substituted
inj most cases. Tho commercial banks
opened at 10 o'clock this morning to
reecivo deposit, which will bo classed
n special, and subject to withdrawal
by! check in any amount. This plan will
bo followed until the vaults aro opened
nn'd regular business resumed. Owing
to the Influx of drunkards from Oak
land, where tho pnloonn arc open, tho
police authorities aro giving speedy
trial to offondiers, and putting thenv to
work on tho ruins tinder bnll and chain,
thero being no prison available.
