ST. LOUIS, Jan. 7. Hearing In the

Waters-Pierce Oil companies was resumed
today before Special Commissioner An

A surprise was sprung by the defense as
soon as the hearing was convened, when
John P. Johnson, cqunsel for the Waters
Pierce Oil company, offered the minute
book of the Waters-Pierce company with
the statement that the respondents would
rest their case provided the commissioner
would, If convenient to himself and court'

over the record. This formal tender in
evidence of the records of the proceedings
of the directors and stockholders of the
Waters-Pierce company from May 29, 1900,
to June 22, 1906, being the joint act of the
attorneys representing the Standard Oil
company of Indiana, the Waters-Pierce Oil
company of St. Louis and the Republic
Oil company of Ohio, practically closed the
defense to the ouster proceedings. '
Commissioner Anthony gave the attor

to decide whether they will offer any mora
testimony and the Informants until Feb

Notwithstanding the action rtf that nrkii naaol
for the defendant oomna niea In nrantlfnllv
resting the defense. Attorney General Had-
ley put u. webster, an Independent re
finer of Humboldt. Kan., nn th. ln,l w
was called to contradict testimony given by
Mr. Mofflt of the Standard Oil company
during a previous hearlnar tn the efr. t iht
the actual cost of refining oil, not Including
any otner expense, was 114 to hi cents
per galfon. Mr. Webster testified today
that Vi cent a gallon was the outside cost
01 renning even the heaviest quality of
crude oil. He said that refined nil nni.i
tie produced in Kansas City, including cost
01 cruae on anq refining expenses, at not
over 1 cents per gallon. He gave figures
to show the exact cost of producing refined
oil and said that while the price of refined
oil In practically all other states Is from
11 to U cents a gallon, the same oil is sold
In Kansas for 7V4 cents.
"I sell to the St. Louis Oil
C cents a 'gallon, delivered lucre," said the
witness. "I have to pay a 17-cent freight
rata from Humboldt to St. Louis. If I
could get the -cent rate that the standard
guts from Whiting, Ind., to St. Louis I
could sell refined oil here for 5 cents a gal
lon and get a satisfactory profit."
The Indications now are that the case
will, be heard by the supreme court at the
April term. This cuse will have the prece
dence over all other cases at the first sit
ting of the court en bane at the April
term, provided Commissioner Anthony gets
lnils report. In that event a decision may
bo handed down early in the summer.

Hears Confession and
OlTes Absolatlen.
NEW YORK, Jan. 7.-The search for the
three firemen who went down with the
ruins when Hill's paper house was burned
last night, was suddenly halted tonight as
the sound of some one rapping on a timber
from" within the debris was heard. A voice
from beneath the charred pile, recognised
as that of John Beufert was faintly audible.
Suefert said. "I am alive and so la Camp
bell. We CAh't sea anything. The debris
Is all about us. Get us out as quickly aa
you csn."
The firemen redoubled their efforts until
warned that over eagerness might defeat
their purpose. Mors coutlonsly they pro
cteded. ' '
The men were caught among the timbers
about midway between the second and
third floors, when the five stories building
went down. The third rnai, Thomas Len
non, was probably Instantly killed. His
body was found burled In a tangle of de
bris and could riot be released until tons
of timber and steel had been cleared away.
At that time It -was not believed possible
that the other two men had survived;
The work of the diggers was perilous as
the walls In the rear of the building con
tinually sagged. For several hours It. was
necessary to stop the digging until bracing
timbers were put It. :
Two women rushed tlw fire lines at dawn
today. Both were sdbblng hysterically.
They were controlled with difficulty, both
wanting to rush into-' the still burning
building and search for their husbands. .
Men Go Down With Floors. -
Lennon, Campbell and Beufert, all mem
bers of Engine No. 32, with J. J. Qutnn
were on the fourth floor, when the floors
buckled In from all corners. The men In
the center of the floor were carried down
with the falling timbers; Qutnn was half
burned in bricks and tlmben, but was re
moved with difficulty. When he regained
consciousness, Qulnn cried out "Where Is
Dan Campbell." "Dan, Dan, where are
you?" "Here's Campbell No. 82." Tho
voice was faint and far down under the
debris. Qulnn recognised it and urged the
other firemen' to the resoue. Battalion
Chief Duffy was badly Injured in trying to
dig down to the man.. Battalion Chief
O'Conner wss overcome by smoke.
Then It became .evident that every man
who was working to rescue the three Im
prisoned men wss 'In danger of. death.
Acting Chief Blnns ordered them out of
the building.
When the fire was under control It was
found that Firemen Thomas Lennon,
Daniel J. Campbell and John Beufert were
missing. A search for them was at once
begun, but tl was soon believed positively
that all were dead., Hours afterwards
Iennon's body was found, and then It was
that the startling communication from Beu
fert was recognised....' '!
Priests Grnnt' Absolution.
As quickly as possible after Seufert'S
voice was heard an ambulance was called.
A rubber tube with a funnel arrangement
was Insetted Into a hole In the debris andf
lowered so'that Beufert1 could ' apply 'his
mouth to It. Through 'this he was given a
stimulant and afterwards some hot coffee.
Beufert then sard h 'could await until his
rescuers got him out.1" Father Rafferty of
St. James church an A'' Father Smith, fire
department ' chkplaln.'Vere caUfd to the
building Soon afttfr'BHrTert's voice was
henrtl. Through the tube the buried fire
man made his act-of contrition and was
given absolution.' The confession, with tha
questions of the priest and the answors
of the desperately situated' man took about
ten minutes, during which ' the ' rescuers
stood with bowed heads.' In spite of the
hopes of rescuing the mart, the situation
was so bad that the priest deemed it fitting
to 'hear Seufert's. confession.
Work on the debris, then was resumed.
Fire Commissioner Lantry also had a talk
with the greman. Beufert ' told the com
missioner he thought Oarnpbejl was lying
eight or ten feet away, but he had heard
nothing from him since they were over
whelmed In the falling floors Sunday night.
Tlie rescuers went on with their work,
but It is a delicate and. dangerous task.
