ROOMIER TO TAKE THE STAND KELLOGG WILL ASK OIL KING'S BROTHER TO THROW LIGHT ON LOANS. SHOWS UP Oil TRUST TRICKS METHOD BY WHICH TRUST EVAD ED ORDER OF OHIO COURTS IS SHOWN. New York. Oct. It. — The method through which the- trustees of the Standard Oil trust liquidated the com pany in order to comply with the or der of the Ohio courts was further un folded yesterday when Wesley H. Til ford, treasurer of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, was recalled to the witness stand in the federal suit against the so-called trust. State ments compiled from stock books ol the various subsidiary companies dur ing the trust liquidation were placed on the records and from these and from Mr. Tilford, the government's counsel, Frank Ft. Kellogg of St. Paul says that the government's charge that only a pseudo liquidation was ef fected and that the trust continued as an entity and under the same con trol as at the time of its inception in 1882 has been proved. Brought Out by Kellogg. Mr. Kellogg was able to develop that the liquidating trustees and their associates liquidated only enough trust certificates to give them a ma jority of the stocks of tlie twenty subsidiary companies, and that they voted these stocks as individuals and maintained a constant control over the integral companies. The dividends declared on the stocks of these com panies were paid directly to those holders who had liquidated the trust certificates and to the trustees who held the stocks against the unliqui dated certificates of the trust. Mr Kellogg showed that the trustees and one or two associates were the only certificate holders who liquidated their shares in the old Standard Oil trust. Cleared Up by Tilford. Mr. Tilforl testified that the cross town pipe line under Central Park whose ownership lias caused consider able perplexity to the federal counsel when it did not appear on the books of the Standard Oil Company of New York after )206. was still owned by the New Y-j k company. Mr. Kellogg again tried to find out the reasons for the large loans, amounting to several millions, given to P. S. Trainer by the Southern Pipe Line company. Efforts to ascertain the nature of these loans at a previous hearing failed. To Call W. G. Rockefeller. That the Standard Company of New York was a lender of millions of its surplus was testified to yesterday by Mr. Tilford. It was developed that over $:i2.uo0.fi00 was loaned last year to "interests other than the Stand ard." What these interests were and the nar.'ie of tlie loans Mr. Tilford was unable to say. Mr. Kellogg said he would call William G. Rockefeller, treasurer of the company to throw light on these loans. MANY ARE INDICTED. Selling Liqucr to Indians Is Charge in Numerous Cases. La Crosse.

CHICAGO DEFEATS DETROII SECOND GAME OF THE WORLD'S CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES GOES TO THE CUBS. Chicago, Oct. 11. -The Chicago Na tional league team defeated the De troit pennant winners of the \mericar league in the second game of the so rios for the world's championship yes terday afternoon. The score was 2, tc 1. Slow pitching and several slight accidents caused the contest to drag over two hours, the delays trying tI k patience of tho big crowd which again filled almost every inch of seating root,). Both teams played more stead ily than on tho opening day. After the first four and a-half innings had drag ged through an hour ami thirty-five minutes some sparkling fielding ant? sharp hitting and base running hasten ed the contest to an end. Mnllin and Pflester were the pitch, ers. and Payne went behind the bal in place of Schmidt. Otherwise the teams lined up as on the preceding day. Schmidt's retirement was due primarily to his inaccurate throwing, but in this respect the change brought small improvement, as the five stolen bases credited to the local team tes tlt'y. Playing conditions were improved for the second game, the crowd mini boring 21,901. as against over 24,000 Tuesday, while warm sunshine and tlie absence of the chill breeze of tho first day kept the spectators and players in more comfort.

While it is true 2,000,000 bushels more grain have been received since Sept. 1 than for the same period last year, the dealers are again worrying because of the sudden falling off o| wheat which was shown by the re ports for yesterday. Other grains art; beating wheat into the city, and tho movement of more important grain is thus checked. Another shortage of cars similar tc that, of last fall :« feared despite the fact that the railroads are in much better condition to handle the traffic One thing that will probably help the movement of grain this year is th^ fear which was instilled into the coa? users of the Northwest by their oxpe lienee of last season.

As soot) as these cars are unloaded they cap be utilized for shipping grain back to Minneapolis or farther east and thus relieve the situation somewhat. NEW SANATORIUM READY.

A writer in Pall Mall Magazine say* that a well known American warder said to him: "I have been in prisons! for men and in prisons for women. Discipline in the former is child's play compared with the latter. As soon as a man realizes there is no use in re -1 sisting he gives in. But the women, even when we put them in straight-! jackets, always manage to extricate at least one finger and to agitate that in a rebellious manner!" In the matter of conduct toward husbands and consideration due to ths "better half" there is an especial code of honor. It has the stability that sanction by women of all countries gives it, but it does not resemble any code that a man would observe toward another man, nor which a woman would employ toward any human—ex cept her husband. This code includes the right to search pockets, consult notebooks, open letters, read those al ready opened. It includes the right to confound household and personal ac counts, to use on self the money in tended by the master of the house foi paying bills. This system is not fre quently practiced, perhaps, and less frequently admitted, no doubt, yet wa remember one newly married woman who announced as a little triumph: "When I buy myself something I don't like I just sell it to the house!" The peculiar indulgence which th» conjugal state seems to call for as re gards the weaker sex in matters oi honor more or less delicate was thus strikingly summarized by a philan thropist accustomed to all sorts and conditions of people. Among the poor whom she visited there was a woman .who in a fit of rage or Jealousy had killed a man. In relating to me tho case the philanthropist concluded sad ly: "Yes, she killed him, and ho wasn't her husband!" TRANSFORMATIONS. Curious Results When Coffee Drinking Is Abandoned. It is almost as hard for an old coffee toper to quit the use of coffee as it is for a whisky or tobacco fiend to break off, except that the coffee user can quit coffee and take up Postum with out any feeling of a loss of the morn ing beverage, for when Postum is well boiled and served with cream, it is really better in point of flavor than most of the coffee served nowadays, and to the taste of the connoisseur it is like the flavor of fine, mild Java. A great transformation takes place in the body within ten days or two weeks after coffee is left off and Postum used, for the reason that the poison to the nerves— caffeine—has been discontinued, and in its place ie taken a liquid food that contains the most powerful elements of nourish ment. It is easy to make this test and prove these statements by c h a n g in g from coffee to Postum. Rend "The Road to WeUville," in pkgs.
