Objection from Mr. Williams. Mr. Williams and Mr. De. Armond (Mo.) both antagonised the rule. Mr. Williams Insisted that If the amendments were sent to the conference In gross that. the house would be at the mercy of the confereee, and he desired to have a vote on some of the amendments. He admitted that the bill had come back from the senate to the house In better shape than when it left and he wanted to safeguard the measure and instruct the conferees on some amendments. He referred particu larly to the express company amendment and Insisted that the house should have a chance to go on record on those amend ments. Mr. De Armond followed in much the same Mraln. v . , Mr. Hepburn rone to explain his posi tion and said he stood with Mr. Williams, the minority leader1 lit presenting a solid front to tn senate; and that It was under stood between the leaders of the two sides of the house that here should be a non concurrence in gross.

CLEVELAND, May 26.-A total of nine teen witnesses Wjere called by Interstate Commissioners Prouty and Clements In the Standard Oil inquiry here today. Com missioners, x counsel . and everybody else connected with the Inquiry put In a hard day and the work of the seeslons were proliflc of Substantial results. The testi mony bordering on sensational was ob tained from several witnesses. That of George L. Lane of Mansfield, O., a former employe of the Standard Oil company, was regarded as particularly important. Ac cording to his evidence Lane was for about fourteen months In 1101 and 1902 employed by the Standardfor the particular purpose of driving all of the Independent oil ped dlers In a dosen or more of the principal cities and towns of Northern Ohio out of business. He said he was employed by C. M.. Lyons of the Cleveland office of the Standard Oil company to go to certain places and by every means, fair or foul, to force the independents to quit. He described the methods pursued in detail. "My instructions." he said, ."were to kill them, and I wae told that If I could not do the Job somebody would Jse sent to take. my place.

Vahey was en countered and despite everything we could do he held his trade. We gave oil away by the barrel and tank load, but It 'did no good. Vahey's customers threw It away." Miss Elisabeth Protsman, a stenographer and bookkeeper In the Dayton, O., office of the Standard Oil company, testified that Information concerning the oil shipment of rivals was brought into the office by dray men and that she made careful record of them and gave them to' her superior. Larse Telesrraph System. John O'Brien, general superintendent of the Lima division of the Buckeye Pipe Line company, a Standard concern, was asked particularly about the Standard's telegraph system, especially that part cob-1 nected with the pipe line company. The Inquiries succeeded tn establishing the gen eral fact that the Standard has an immense telegraph system of its own, extendlpg -to nearly eveVy part of the country, and that In carrying on Its great volume of trade It does not often require the use of the gen eral linea of the two big telegraph com panies. The company . has Its own wires leased or otherwise, operators, offices, regu lations, blanks end other stationery, and sometimes sends messages for persons not connected with the company. Tire witness denied that the company exchanged busi ness with the Western Union Telegraph company at points where One had an of' flee and the other did not. D. B. Byles, secretary and treasurer tf the Independent Refining company, limited, of Oil City, Pa., offered testimony concern ing the railroad rate discrimination again.it his company, especially by the Lake Shore and Pennsylvania roads, which had prac tically driven his company out of the en tire New England field, and that In order to hurt their business In Indiana the Standard's agents circulated reports to the effect that the Oil City company Was In reality a Standard Oil concern. Irregularities In Rates. Frank 3. Helmerich Of Bellevue. O., told how his Independent oil business wss all but ruined by the methods of the Standard. . W. 3. Cram Of Marietta, O., testified that ! . 1- , . M , . . , . . . iiiw oisnunra lor years nounaea nis com pany and that the company was Anally compelled to sell Its property at a low figure. W. E. Wall, president Of the Fred T. Clark company, oil dealers of Cleveland, pointed out on rate Sheeta the irregularities in rates to different points In the coun try, s F. M. Gibbs. a merchant of Tlpten, O., said he was compelled to handle the Standard's oil because the Standard's agents threatened to atart another store close by and aell every article he sold in competition. Charles A. Ricks ofClevelsnd. employed in the Cleveland office of the Standard Oil Mfmpany from 188ft to 1901, his laat position being that of assistant general manager, denied upon crosa-examinatlon that a large amount of Standard Oil litera ture was prepared In his office and offered to papera throughout Ohio at so much per column? Baralasr of Books Denied. Special Counsel Monnett had been In formed that books of the company had been recently burned In the works In this city and he subpoenaed F. W. Miller and George Bear to testify. Both denied that they had seen or heard of any such oc currence anJ they were speedily excused. Georse L. Lewis, a lubricating oil sales- msn of Chlcsgo, told how he lost a con tract with the Dayton A Troy traction line because the Standard agents promised enough freight to more than pay for the oil. C. B. Duffy, purchasing agent of the Hocking Valley railroad, was called to testify concerning the buying of lubricat ing oils. Asked If he had not said re cently that hla road would lose from $160. - COD to 1200,000 a year In freightage If he bought lubricating oils from any other eompsny than the Standard or Galena, he replied that he might have made such a remark, but he had no positive recollec tion of It. He said that he had no In structions from hi superiors to buy these oils from the Standard or Galena com panies. MORS rY DIRT I CO I, HEARING ill .r BrTrl7..Whlt rs.eer.

Testimony of a sensational character was given today by F. Albert Von Boyneburg, general manager of the Reakert Bros. Coal company, coal operators of this city. He stated that within the last two and one-half years his company's car supply had been so Inadequate that the business had been prac tlcally ruined. He declared that other companies had been favored in the dlstrl button of care and said he had no doubt that discrimination has been practiced against his company, because It had failed to make glfta of stock to the railroad offi cials. He gave It as his opinion that President A. J. Cassatt was responsible for the discriminations. Through railroad employee It was devel oped that, for a number of years and until recently the Berwlnd-Whlte company's coal was shipped to tidewater without be ing weighed. Instead the railroad esti mated the weight of each car by adding T per cent to the capacity figures stenciled on the car. It was also shown that the Sus quehanna Coal company, which ia owned by the Pennsylvania Railroad company, has the exclusive use of Greenville pier. New York harbor, and has a virtual monoploy of the sale of bunker coal to the tugs and small steamers. It was brought out that certain coal companies are given allowances for oper ating branch lines from their mines to the main lines and that the railroad made this allowance to the Latrobe-Connellsville com pany when the spur was operated by the railroad. dominations Coaltrmed.

It is hard to believe that coffee will put a person in such a condition as It did a woman of Apple Creek, O. She tells her own story: "I did not believe coffee caused my trou ble, and frequently said I liked it ao well I would not quit drinking it, even tf It took my life, but I waa a miserable eufTerer from heart trouble and nervous prostration for four years. "I waa scarcely able to be around at all Had no energy and did not care for any thing, was emaciated and had a constant pain around my heart until I thought could not endure It. For months I never went to bed expecting to get up in the morning. I felt aa though I waa liable to die any time during the night. "Frequently I had nervous chills and the least excitement would drive sleep away. and any little nolae would upsst me terribly, I was gradually getting worae until finally one day It came over me and I asked my self what Is the use of being sick all the time and buying medicine so that I could Indulge myself In coffee? "So I thought I would see If I could quit drinking coffee, and got some Poetum Food Coffee to help me quit. I made It Strictly according to directions and I want to tell you that change was the greatest step In my Ufa. It waa easy to quit coffee because I had the Poatum which I like better than 1 liked the old coffee. One by one the old troubles left, until now I am In splendid health, nerves steady, heart ail right and the pain all gone. Never have any more nervous chills, don't take any medicine, can do all my housework and have done a great deal besides. "My sister-in-law, who visited me thl summer, bad been an invalid for some time, much as I waa. I got her to quit coffee and drink Poetum. She gained Ave pounds In three weeks, and T nver sc such a change In anyone's health." There's a reason.'
