engaged in- the refining "of oil which was
V)ld In this country and abroad.
' "What waa the next change?'
"1 think that three, years later, In 1870,
the Standard Oil company of Ohio organised
with a capital .of SJMHO.OtXh snd; we enlisted
much capital In theftoopupany.", ,
He looked to Ohio to obtain the crude oil
and the refining plants ot the company
were at Cleveland, Pittsburg, Parkersburg,
Baltimore and New York. -
"The Standard Oil company put up all
the. refineries possible,' 'but In general,-the
bu,idlngs were not up to the average of
those In Cleveland."
'..'Was Mr, Andrews a practical refiner?"
v'"That waa the reason he was given a
par In the business," said Mr. Rockefeller,
"jfljj waa-a, practical ffiflnvr of oil and It
gave him an, excellent opportunity to asso
ciate himself In the business In this way."
"Now tell us of the advantages and' dis
advantages of. Cleveland as a refining
ptf'lit." said Mr. MUburn.
."I ahould say that Cleveland was the best
distributing point to obtain the domestic
trade," replied Mr. ' Rockefeller.
"t, suppose. (t, had. natural advantages.
Wt always bud', the-, trade that we could
supply by. the Jukes.. Many railroads led
Into the west, and to the eastward we had
several. The disadvantage of Cleveland was
that we had a long haul to the seaboard
tor the export trade. We also had to haul
the crude pli Jo Cleveland."
Improvement and Economy.
"Were niMiy Improvements noted In the
businesa?"
'Yes, many Improvements were made,"
said Mr. -Rockefeller. "We Improved ma
chinery1' and made our own barrels. We
had bJtigh't the birrels, which held about
forty-four gallons, front the coopers, and
we thought' we. were paying a high
price fit about ' $!.W . apiece. Some of
these barrels ' were made of green wood
and often the Insldes were damp. This
caused a shrinkage after the barrels were
filled. We then bought the wood ourselves
and dried It In our own kilns In the forest.
Thus we had dry wood. We made our own
barrels, which not only were satisfactory
because they reduced leakage, but they
were Increased In size. Increasing the ca
pacity by nearly five gallons. These bar
rels cost us when we manufactured them
about hulf'the price, ' S2.60. which we for
merly paid for them."
"Let me ask you about the house which
you established here," said Mr. Milburn.
Ten, t-hat waa an advantage. It gave
us sn opportunity to learn of the foreign
markets and the export trade. We were
constantly' In need of Increasing capital' aa
our business developed and In New York
we were enabled to secure larger sums of
money at lower rates than In the west. We
were always able to obtain large sums of
money and 1 am thankful to say we always
had good credit. We always kept our cove
nants and paid our bills. Our ability to
secure large loans was of great advantage
to us. Thus wo extended our facilities with
New York bankers with whom We kept
our deposits and we got our money at the
cheapest rates in the cheapest money mar
ket In the world."

expenses the company found it profitable
to transport Its own oil from the oars to
the warehouses In this city.
. Always Aboalntrly Fair.
When asked If coercive measures were
employe In acquiring, the stock, of other
oil companies In Ohio, Mr.- Rockefeller re
plied, "none wliataver." lie continued:
"For myself, I can say that the methods
were always absolutely fair." -
"Did you have negotiation BUer the or
ganization of the Standard Oil Company
of Ohio with other 'Interests looking to their
purchase?" Mr. Rockefeller was asked.
"Yes,: In the last part of 1871. We con
summated negotiations for the, the) .firm of
Clark, Payne & Co. This company was a
very considerable, refining .company, next
to us In size. The members were Colore!
Oliver H. Payne, James II. Clark arjd Jalin
Huntington. '
"The next one w bought," If I atn right,
was the Alexander Bchofleld & Co. They
were next In Importance In the business."
"Did these negotiations result In control
ling Clark, Payne & Co.?"
"Yes."
"Were there other negotiations?"
"Yes, there were other refining', concerns
having lesser Importance which we pur
chased." Mr. Rockefeller said to cope, with the
changing conditions it was necessary to ob
tain capital and purchase the Cleveland
companies, which the witness sakt enabled
the Standard to borrow large sums of
money by having associated with It many
of its recognized friends.
"We realized," said Mr. Rockefeller, "that
the larger company decreased the cost of
production and Increased the volume of
business. The companies were purchased
part In cash and part In stock of the Stand
ard company."
So Coercion Whatever.
"Did you use any coercive means to
secure these companies?"
"None whatever," said Mr. Rockefeller.
"They were all fair negotiations. I may
say for myself that they were the kind
of negotiations I have always used. .1 have
used no other."
Mr. Rockefeller then was asked about the
payments made for the companies.
"I do not know what portion was cash
or stock, possibly half of cash and half
stock," said Mr. Rockefeller.
Regarding the South Improvement com
pany, Mr. Rockefeller said that while tha
Standard took a little Interest in It they
had little to do with It.
"We did not entertain the 'vie. ws of those
in charge of It and' we were not in 'sym
pathy wtlh It," he sdded. ' lie gave the
names 'of those Identified with" the 'South
Improvement company," stating' that they
were Identified with trie .Pennsylvania oil
fi;!d. They were hauling their oil over
the Pennsylvania railroad," said Mr. Rocke
feller. "These gentlemen were active In
the Pennsylvania oil field. One of them.
Mr. Peter Wataon, was Identified with Mr.
Scott, president ot the Pennsylvania rail
road."
"Did you ever negotiate for the charter
bf the South Improvement company?"
"I never did," said Mr. Rockefeller. "We
did not share their view and we frankly
told them so more than ones. It waa not a
m
scheme which we ourelveS would car for."
"Why did you tske an Internal In It?"
"It should be remembered that Mr. Brott
n a potent factor In the, Pennsylvania
railroad, who waa not to be disregarded
by the railroad or shippers. We did hot
wish to break wtlh these gentlemen, espe
cially wtlh Mr. Scott. We only had a
minority Interest. "
The scheme of the South Improvement
company, he declared, was a failure and
never went Into operation. It having
aroused great opposition among the oH
Interests In Pennsylvania.
"It did not take very long for our frlemia,
the producers down there to make opposi
tion to It, they having the characteristics
of miners the world over," said Mr. Rock
efeller, who waa about to tell of the forma
tion of the Producers' union, when on re
quest of the Standard counsel, an adjourn
ment waa taken until tomorrow:
Mr. Rockefeller Interrupted the motion,
stating that he was willing to rem.tln as
long as desired, but nodded assent to
counsel when his lawyers ahookj their
heads.

B0NI STILL ON HELIE'S TRAIL
Former Haahand of Prince's
rashes Action to Secnre
Ills Children.
Wife
PARIS, Nov. 18. The hearing of the suit
brought by Count Bonl De Castellane
against Princess Hclte De Sagan for the
custody of his three children was today
postponed until November 25. This action
was taken at the request of Albert Clemen
ceau, counsel for the princess, who an
nounced that he had just entered the case
and that It was consequently Impossible
for him to proceed today.
Princess De Sagan was Anna Oould of
New York, before she married Count Bonl
De Castellane. She secured a divorce from
him, after which she married Prince Ilelle
De Sagan.
M. Bonnett, Count De Castellane's lswyer,
did not oppose the request of M. Clemen
ceau for postponment, but he formally
petitioned the court to place the children
In the care of the Marquise De Castellane,
mother of Count Bonl, pending a settlement
of the case, on the ground that they were
uncomfortable and 111 In the house of their
mother, the princess, and because It was
desirable that they should escape the at
mosphere, unhealthful both morally and
physically, which, he alleged, prevaded the
home of the mother.. The court ruled that
It could not pass upon this question today
and the entire matter went over for one
week.
Count De Castellane was present In court
and listened attentively as M. Bonnett set
forth that the count was unable to see his
children on account of their illness and that
the doctor had been forbidden to send him
any news of them. "The children have
need of that calm and peace which they
111 find In the home of their grand
mother," M. - Bonnett declared. He then
said that he had agreed to numerous post
ponements already because he understood
that the prmress had decided to seek a sep
aration from her husband, but Inasmuch as
the princess had denied this report he
could see no reason why the suit should
not proceed. The court, however, granted
the postponement.
MIKADO REVIEWS HIS FLEET
Entire Fighting- Strength of Japan's
Navy Passes Before the
Emperor.
KOBE, Japan, Nov. 18. The fighting craft
of Japan, comprising 110 vessels, exclusive
of submarines, psssed In review before the
emperor today. The weather waa perfect
and the occasion was one long to ba re
membered. "Notwithstanding the recent plague scare,
the emperor and his attendants arrived at
Kobe as early as 9 o'clock this morning on
his way to the harbor front, drove through
the streets, crowded with their silent thou,
sands and rendered gorgeous by the array
of magnificent decorations In his honor.
Embarking on the battleship Asama, the
emperor was welcomed by Admiral- Togo
and the other admirals of the fleet. As
dozens of guns volleyed their salute the
sun emerged from behind a cloud, trans
figuring the great array of ships with
their flying banners and plainly outlining
on a distant hillside the outline of an
anchor composed of pines, planted by
school children In 1903. The Asama, with
Admiral Togo on the bridge, steamed
slowly between the lines of warships and
auxiliaries, with every band playing the
national anthem. Togo, at the emperor's
side, detailed the strength and equipment
of each vessel, pointing out the ships cap
tured from Russia during the Russian
Japanese wsr.
The review waa concluded shortly before
noon snd the officers took tiffin on the
Asama. As the emperor left the flagship
the entire fleet united In a thunderous sa
lute. Prior to his departure for the shore
the emperor congrstulated the navy upon
a great Improvement due to the energies of
the officers snd men. At Kobe tonight the
scene Is a magnificent one. The entire
fleet Is outlined In electric lights and the
city Is swarming with enthusiastic crowds.

RATES ON LUMBER REDUCED
Southern Pacific to Cat on Shipments
Originating in California.
NEW TARIFF IN PREPARATION
It Will Knakl Mill In onth Pacific
Territory to Meet f nmpetltlna
of Washington and Ore
on Mill.
WASHINGTON. Nov. IK One of the
most Important railroad tariff reducing
rates filed In the past year with the Inter
stale Commerce commission will be ttwit
for which special permission has been
granted hy the commission to the South
ern Pacific company and Its connections.
It is a direct result of the order In the
north Pacific lumber cases, wherein the
freight rates on lumber and lumber prod
ucts were ordered to be reduced from
points in Washington and Oregon to des
tlnmtlons In the east, particularly Mis
souri river crossings. The Southern Pa
cific tariff now Is In preparation and when
completed will he filed and become effec
tive on three days' notice. It provides for
reduced rates on all lumber. Including tim
ber, poles, shingles and building materials
In csrloads from points In California, Ne
vada and t'tali to destinations In Canada
and that part of the United States east of
the Missouri river and north of Tennessee
and North Carolina and also to points In
Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas,
Arkansas and Texas. The rates will be
substantially In line with those fixed by
the commission from north Pacific points.
They will provide for a reduction of from
5 to 10 cents per hundred pounds on rough
lumber, lath and general lumber from
points of origin to Chicago. To points east
of Chicago as far as New York the general
rate will be about 15 cents less per hun
dred pounds than It now Is. All Intermedi
ate points between the south Pacific coast
territory and the Atlantic seaboard will be
affected by the new rates. The commis
sion granted permission that these be put
Into effect In order that the south Pacific
lumber producers and manufacturers might
be able to compete for the eastern trade
with the north Pacific producers.

SHORT SUPPLY0F ENGINEERS
Branch of Army that la Over-worked
Rivera and Harbors Ktl
matea Made.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 18.-In his
first annual report Oeneral W. L. Marshall,
Chief of Engineers, United States army,
mnkes a strong appeal for an Increase In
the corps of engineers. The present au
thorized engineer corps, he states, consists
of 189 officers. He recommends an In
crease of 132 officers, sixty to be employed
on miliary and civil works of construction,
fifty-seven to be 'employed In tliree addi
tional battalions and fifteen for regimental
organization.
Oeneral Marshall comments at consider
able length upon the Increasing duties of
the corps of engineers. At present he
says only forty-four officers, or above one
fourth of the corps,, are left uncjer full con
trol of the department to attend to the
important construction works, fortifica
tions, . river .and .JUafbor and other - duties
devolving by law upon the corps of en
gineers. Ife says that while the number
of officers Is decreasing the reverse Is true
of the work. River and harbor Improve
ments are now going on under appropria
tions of a size previously unknown, fortifi
cation and construction has been extended
to island possessions and a large share of
the Panama canal work has been entrusted
to officers of the corps. He recommends
an Increase In the number of engineer
battalions from three to six and states that
during the early part of 1907, nine out of a
total number of twelve engineer companies
were given work In the tropics, a much
greater proportion than In the case of any
other branch of the service.
For river and harbor work the following
estimates are submitted for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1908: under continuing con
tracts, S3,47(,057; rivers and harbors (gen
eral. Including examinations, surveys and
contingencies), $21,464,141, under California
debris commission, $15,000; prevention of
deposits In " New York. $156,280; enlarge
ment of Oovernor's Island, New York,
$75,000. In addition to the above the Mis
sissippi river commission submits an esti
mate amounting to $3,000,000, reduced by the
chief of engineers to $2,000,000.
Among Improvements of rivers snd har
bors for which an estimate Is made for the
next fiscal year are the following: Harbor
of Refuge, Sandy Bay, Cape Ann, Massa
chuaettes, $575,000; Boston, Mass., $1,400,000;
Provlncetown, $135,000; New Bedford and
