STANDARD OIL TO
BE INVESTIGATED
RELATIONS WITH RAILROADS
WILL BE SHOWN UP
Russia's National Assembly to Con.
van* May 10— General Newt
Forecast for the Present
Week
By Associated Preis.
■■■ WASHINGTON, D. C, May «.— The
Interstate commerce commission on
May 10 will begin ono of the most
thorough Inquiries that has ever been
Instituted Into the relations between
the railroads and the Standard Oil com
pany.
Special counsel has been engaged nnrl
hundreds of subpoenas issued. Inde
pendent oil refiners have been sum
moned and the commission will make
as drastlo An Investigation as possible.
The ecclesiastical court which tried
Dr. Algernon 8. Crapsey of Rochester,
N. V., for heresy, will reassemble In
executive session at the Parish house
of. St. Jamea church, Batavla, May 9,
to examine the evidence and decide on
a verdict.
The following day the court will
transmit their findings to Bishop
Walker, upon whom rests the respon
sibility of deciding what punishment, If
any, shall be meted out.
' Russia's National Assembly
The national assembly of Russia, to
which so many hopes for the future of
that country are pinned, will be con
vened at the Taurlde palace in St
Fetersburg on Thursday, May 10.
The national assembly, or douma,
was granted by the emperor August
19, 1005, and, according to the official
announcement, "Is established for the
preliminary study and definition of
legislative propositions, which, accord
ing 'to the fundamental laws, go up
through the council of the empire to
the- supreme autocratic authority."
„ The composition of the council of the
empire, .or upper house, one-half ap
pointed .by the emperor and one-half
selected from the nobility and clergy,
would seem sufficiently probable to
deadlock the douma should there be
any opposition to the crown.
Manifesto Look* Innocent
' ,Th» manifesto Issued on March 6,
1906, was an Innocent looking provision,
placing beyond the Jurisdiction of par
liament and consigning for considera
tion to commissions of the council of
the empire, the reports of the minister
of finance, charges of malfeasance
against officials of the government, the
establishment of stock companies with
especial privileges and relating to en
tailed estates of nobility, etc.
The government retains the power to
promulgate "temporary" laws during
the recesses of parliament, and as the
parliament is subject to dissolution by
imperial ukase the government is in a
position in time of stress to rid. itself
of any obnoxious legislature and pro
claim such laws as it deems necessary.
Three hundred and seventy-one mem
bers have been elected to the assembly
of which the constitutional Democrats
have a clear working majority.
Agrarian .. Problem \ A
■ ■■; The first and all Important matter to
,come up will be the Agrarian problem
and recent dispatches from St. Peters
burg seem to indicate that the govern
ment will work in accord with the
assembly In this matter by proposing
the formation of a parliamentary com
mission- to elaborate plans for an
Agrarian project. This will practically
mean the acceptance of tho decision of
the constitutional Democrats.
I Practfcally all the members of the
United States senate agree In predict
ing that the present week will see the
end of the discussion on the railroad
rate bill. The fact that this provision
is accepted by the conservative sena
torial leaders on the one hand and by
the president on the other renders It
practically certain that the amendment'
will in the end be accepted as a party
measure and that It will receive most,
if not all, of the votes of Republican
senators.
The consideration of the bill will pro
ceed in accordance with the unanimous
agreement, the measure being consid
ered section by section and each section
disposed of in order.
| The proceedings last Friday, the only
day on. which the senate has been in
(session under the agreement, Indicated
that there is little prospect of any gen
eral change in the measure.
It seems probable that changes may
be made favoring giving the commis
sion power to compel trunk lines to
make connection with other lines, and
prohibiting the transportation com
panies from engaging in the produc
tion of commodities.

Exact Data In Doubt
Opinion* differ as to the lenitth of
time that may be required for the
conclusion of the work on the bill, nnd
th» pstlnmtp.q vary all the way from
Wednesday until Saturday.
The principal debate will be nn the
question of court , review, which will
probably be reached by Tuesday. After
that la disposed of there will be little
heart left for anything else, and what
ever may be offered will most likely be
acted upon after comparatively little
dI.TUSSInn. .'
There are as yet no plans for taking
up other measures nfter the railroad
bill shall have been disposed of, but It
Is expected that some of the appropria
tion bills will be ready for consideration
by that time.
Will Complete Naval Bill
The discussion of the nomination of
Mr. Barnes, ntmlstant secretary to the
president, as postmaster of Washing
ton will also proceed when opportunity
affords.
The national house of representatives
will complete the naval appropriation
bill this week. If the foreign affairs
committee can Ret the diplomatic and
consular appropriation bill ready In
time action also may be taken on that
measure.
The rending of the naval bill Is ex
pected to occupy the house Tuesday,
Wednesdny and Thursday. Should
there be any unoccupied time, however,
thero arc two special orders alrendy
on the calendar, and the Immigration
bill Is to constitute the third, If the
present plnn succeeds to give It that
status by the passage of a resolution
today. Pure food legislation has the
right of way nfter appropriation bills,

LOS ANGELES HERALD : MONDAY MORNING, MAY 7, lsoß.
NOTABLES FLOCK
TO ST. PETERSBURG
THOUSANDS EAGERLY AWAIT
INAUGURATION V
Feara That Government Will Attempt
to Dissolve Parliament Are Van.
Ishlng— Democrats Hold Ex.
tremliti In Check
By Associated Press.
ST. PETERSHURO, May «.— The
members of the rational parliament
and the council of the empire are ar
riving here on every train. Quite ! a
number of distinguished foreign vis
itors and Journalists already have
reached St. Petersburg to witness
Thursday's great historic event— the In
auguration of the Russian parliament.
The fears that the government will
attempt to dissolve the parliament be
forn It has the opportunity of accom
plishing anything are. vanishing, and
despite the bomb outrage at Moscow
today nnd the continued Irreconcilable
attitude of the extreme revolutionists
there is a more hopeful feeling thnt
Russia may enter smoothly Into parlia
mentary life.
Would Avoid Conflict
This Is due not only to tho moderate
attitude of the Democratic majority,
whose leaders with admirable restraint
are holding the extremists among them
In check, but the manifest desire of the
government to avoid a conflict.
The new cabinet hns announced a
policy of hands off, practically saying
that the parliament shall have carte
blanche, and so long as It does not at
tempt to meddle with the fundamental
laws of the empire the parliament will
be allowed to offer Its own solution of
the crying Agrarian problem.
"With this attitude of the government,
If it is sincerely carried out, the consti
tutional Democrats for the present are
content, They will wait for final vic
tory, when the emperor will be forced
to grant a constitution which time
they believe is not far off.
M. Nabokoff Makes Statement
The Associated Press today talked
with M. Nabokoff, the leader of the
constitutional Democrats, who said
frankly that his party had no desire at
present to have a premier and cabinet,
even if it could. Such responsibility
would place It upon the defensive, while
by remaining In opposition with the
country behind it the chances of forc
ing a complete surrender were In
creased Instead of being diminished.
Socialists Do Not Show Hand
The little group of socialists of the
extreme left has not • yet shown its
hand, but with the constitutional demo
crats, who have a clear working ma
jority, It will be powerless to force a
conflict.
The Octoberists In the center are a
negligible quantity, and with the pres
ent temper at Tsarskoe-Selo this small
group of reactionists in the parliament
sings low. The ceremonies at the win
ter palace here, when the emperor will
deliver tho speech from the throne,
have been arranged with all the glitter
and pomp of a state function.
The Idea of an informal opening In
order to diminish the Importance of
the position of the parliament has been
abandoned. • ...
Notables Will Attend
The entire Imperial family, with the
Indies and gentlemen of the court, the
former in the. national Russian cos
tumes and the latter, In court dress,
aid de camps, ministers, generals and
officers of the guard regiments, mar
shals of the nobility and such governors
general and military commanders of
the army corps as are in St. Petersburg,
the mayors and city councils of St.
Petersburg and Moscow and members
of the holy eynod are commanded to
attend.
The chiefs of missions were invited
by an Imperial order which was Issued
today, i
Will March in State
■' The" "members of the parliament will
assemble in the beautiful St. Nicholas
hall, the council of the empire at the
Hermitage pavilion and the others at
the '"Af mortal," field marshals at other
halls and march in state to the great
hall of St. George, a magnificent pil
lared chamber fifty yards long and
twenty-five yards wide, where the em
peror from the throne will address the
parliament and council of the empire,
which will return respectively to the
Taurlde palace and the Hall of Nobles,
where the formal openings of the par
liament will take place.

FEW CHANGES IN
FRENCH DEPUTIES
MANY FORMER MEMBERS ARE
RE-ELECTED
Second Ballot Necessary in Paris to
Determine - Results — Much Ex
citement, but Day Passes
• Without Incident
By. Associated Press.
PARIS, May 6.— Results thus far an
nounced In the general parliamentary
electlona t whlch were held today show
few changes In the chamber, most of
the former deputies being re-elected,
but an extraordinary number of sec
ond ballots will be necessary In Paris.
The present ballot gives the oppo
sition a majority, but the second bal
lot, which will be taken May 20, Is
expected to reproduce the results of
the 1902 election, when the representa
tion of the capital was equally divid
ed. Nevertheless the government has
gained one seat. It is estimated that
there was a record poll of votes.
Police Guard Polls
Owing to the excitement caused by
tne recent strike and the disorders
occasioned by taking inventories of
church property, the polling booths
were guarded by military und police,
but the day passed practically with
out incident. Intervention by the
authorities wns unnecessary.
Great crowds have surrounded the
hotel, the ministry of the interior and
the newspaper offices, where the re
sults of the voting were posted,
cheering or hooting when the returns
of popular candidates were announced.
Returns Greeted With Cheers
The success of prominent men, such
as M. Brland, Pressense, Miller, Lock
roy, Millevoya and Admiral Uienaime
were greeted with enthusiasm. Mar
cel Habert, director of the League of
Patriots was defeated.
Provincial returns display an unex
pectedly favorable tendency toward
the government, whose supporters have
captured no fewer than eighteen seats
against a loss of only two. Including
Paris, 411 results are known. Of those
the government raptured 188 seats and
the opposition 112, whlljß 111 will re
quire the second ballot*. The net gain
to the government Is 16 seats.
M. Doumer, president of the cham
ber of deputies; Clementet, former
minister of the colonies; Lelgues, min
ister of the colonies In the Sarrlen
cabinet; Lasles, the antl-semlte leader;
Poumergue, minister of commerce;
Prlletan, former minister of marine;
Brlsson, former president of the
chamber, and the duke de Brlogll were
all re-elected.

ESCAPES IN A BARREL
Countrymen Hide Italian From Police.
Makes Way to Naples
and Safety
Special to Tho Herald.
ASBUIIY PARK, N. J., May 6.— A
story of how the Italian murderer, Mi
chael do Lauro, fooled the police of
Neptune township and escaped In a
beer barrel, Is the latest phase of the
love tragedy of last summer, in which
Frank Ilozzo wus the victim of a Jeal
ous rival's bullet.
All tho evidence at the time pointed
to de Lauro as the murderer. Detec
tives and posses were sent In search of
him, but the man dropped out of sight.
It appears from a statement obtained
by one of the township officials that de
Lauro was, on the night of the murder,
secreted by his countrymen.
For several days he was hid in the
sandhills, being supplied with food and
water. On tho seventh day he was
Shoved into a barrel, which was closed
at the top. The barrel was loaded in a
beer ark and taken to New York In a
steamship. On arrival at the pier It
was transported, with de Lauro inside,
to an outgoing Italian steamer, bound
for Naples. After the boat passed
Sandy Hook de Lauro was released.

SPORTS CHASE STAKEHOLDER
Paid $2.50 Each to See Prize Fight
That End» in the First
Round
Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK. May 6.— About thirty
fportß from various parts of Essex
county, New Jersey, were given a taste
of the bunco game recently, when they
paid $2.50 each to witness what waft
advertised to be a finish fight between
Kid Ilannon of Newark and Joe Bate
man of Uellevllle In an old barn on the
outskirts of the Falrvlew section of
Hloomfield. The fight ended when
Uutemun was knocked out, after a
minute of fighting, in the first round.
Thero were cries of "Fake!" from the
fipectators and a general clamor for the
return of their mpney, which was fol
lowed by a chase across swamps ana
over hills after Harry Schneider of
Orango, said to bo the promoter of the
fight, who succeeded In: eluding; the
angry pursuers and getting away with
the 150 purse. '
The ring wa» pitched In a hayloft,
two oil lamp* furnishing Hint. Bate
man seemed a trifle too heavy, for. the
contest. He claimed that he had been
drugged. Just before he shook hands
with Bannon he took a drink from a
bottle which was handed to him by one
of his antagonist's followers.
Jack Taylor of Bioomfleld acted as
referee, Joe Rock of Belleville was In
Bateman's corner, and Al Peto of New
ark looked after Bannon. The fighters
used three-ounce gloves.
In the general rush to get away the
farmer who rented his barn for the
fight was forgotten. He wanted his
pay, and, hurrying Into the house, se
cured a shotgun, with which he threat
ened the sports. He pursued some of
them for quite a distance, but they got
away. '
