At the order of the oonrt demandin

answer. Bridenoe was rrabseqaentl
procured by the attornfy g?nerai t
show that the book? had been boraed
The olllcer? maintained that this is n<
true, but Mr. Monnett said that it i
a reasonable supposition,|in riewof th
evidence introduced that the hoik
w??re destroyed. In Hpttukini/ ofa th
effect of th?? order of the court declar
ing it tobe doing business in violatni
of the trust law of the Stale, tin? wit
ness ?aid :
"The decree has no t bothered them
n ept in boiikceping. "
John D. Ki>ckefi?ller, the witMS
thought, controls alone tin? all aus i
thfl Standard Uli Company. Prou hit
trust rartlflrates Of the Standard I >i
Oompany of Ohio ho receive* an in
come of $191.700 a year, and as pr> -
Ideal of the company be receives |30
D0?> per year. His interests arc m di*
trihuted that he can control tin? atl.ur
of the trust without the aid of his con
federates. There are only seven share
of the Standard Oil Company's ?toi I
held by persons' outside of the com
bine.
Since 1SS2 the Standard I Ml ('unpini'
of Ohio hau discharged at least two
thirds of the men employed by it. The
r< fining plants at Marietta werepracti
cally dismantled. The plant of th?
Argnnd Heflniog Oompany, of Parkers
i-urg, W. Va., wan bought by the com
bino. By agreement the plant will rr
niiin idle for ten or twelve thonsan?
dollars a ypar. The power ol
the Standard Oil Oompany and other
corporations lies in their ability tc
control transporation. Although the
interstate laws forbid discrimination
in freight rates, the Standard has se?
cured rates from the Southemjshipping
points in Ohio to New Orleans which
are much lower than those granted to
independent producers.
The agreements with the railroad
companies are not direct, but an in?
direct contract is entered into, by
which the law is evaded.
The witness expressed himself very
strongly against the extortionate meth?
ods employed by tha Standard Oil Oom?
pany and other corporations. He re?
ferred In especially strong terms to the
use made by corporations of State and
national laws to impose upon the pub
lio. He thought it just as unlawful
for a corporation to make money by
oharging the public an exorbitant
price for an article as it is for a man
to make counteifeit coin and pass it
into circulation as genuine He thought
the extortion practiced by many trusts
is contrary to the fundamental princi?
ples of the Government. Mr. Monnett
expressed the belief that the trust
question should be settled by laws

children crept feet foremost, turned
their heads to the lire and slept snng
through all sorts of weather. Of cou-se
the logs were only for storms and sev?

whole family slept outdoors. It WM
presumably a happy family, and cer?
tainly a healthy one, though it went
barefoot the year round and never so
much a? heard of hygiene. The brood
grew up innocent of contact with doc?
tors, ministers or schoolmasters. As tin
owner of a Bummer cottage down the
valley said upon discovering them :
"The truth is, they don't know enough
ever to tie sick. "

1 had a little boy who was nearly
dead from an attack of whooping
cough. My neighbors recommended
Ohamherlain's Cough Remedy. I did
not think that any medicine would help

another well equipped exp?dition is
to start from Stockholm iin charge of
I i-ofessor A. (i. Noithorsf, a leading
Swedish scientist i in search of I'rufes
SOf Andr?e. The world is profoundly
interested in the fate of the intrepid
Arotto explorer, and it may bo assumed
that the virions Ffa-ching pxjx'ditions
alrendy organi/.ed will continue their
investigations until, as in the case of
Sir John Franklin, articles belonging
to Andr?e'? outfit shall be found. The
Norwegian and Swedish scientists,
however, have not yet abandoned the
hope of finding Professor Andr?e alive.
They indulge the hope that he landed
in N< rtheastern Oreenland, and that he
is making his way south along the east?
ern coast ?a journey which would re?
quire several years to complete. There
is a touch of patbes in this cherished
belief that Audree is still alive, and
the discoverer who shall solve the great
mystery will win worldwide renown.
A coffee house should make a men
rich, says thfr-New York Press. The
finest Santos can be bought for ID cents
a pound. Maracaibo for 25 and Mand
heling Java for ML One pound of berries
roasted and ground will make easily two
gallons of drink, and at 10 cents a cup
the profit is any where between $12.47
and $12 61 per pound or about 4,:><K)per
