Senator II. A. Cox of Kearney enjoys a distinction unique In the fact that he Is the only re publican on record who ever asked W. J. Bryan for an endorsement. Incidentally, he failed to gel It. When Bryan was campaigning at Holdrege last fall he made the h'tatement that if both candidates for the legislature in that district had signed statement No. 1 he would prefer the man who favored ecunty option. Cox. It seems, had not yet signed the statement, hut he sent the ' "Peerless" a note declaring tils willingness to sign and asking Bryan to endorse him In his speech. Rut the eloquence turned loose did not in clude Mr. Cox, for Bryan thought a promise to sign waa not enough, fox finally rose right up in meetin' and de manded that Mr. Bryan carry out his threat of endorsing a county option re publican, but Bryan sarcastically refused. Cox. however, has a seat In the house, and that Is what he was after. While the house committee on commit tees was meeting In the Lincoln hotel Tues day night the spectators In the lobby were amused at the frequency with which some member or other would come down In the elevator, trot over to the desk telephone and call up some adviser. The discussions over the phone were always in a low sen tentious tone and the face of the mem ber would always grow less worried and mora confident as ho talked. Usually the men who telephoned were drys and It was whispered about the lobby that one brother of the peerless leader, whose first name Is Charlie, was the man whose ad vice was being continually asked. Representative Gait, from Clay county, wants to put a serious stumbling block In the way of the Industrious and enterpris ing reporter. He has introduced a bill, house roll number 31, (authority for thla statement Is the Journal of tha thirty-second session of the Nebraska state legis lature, page three, for January 11. l'.Hl, which may be found by consulting Henry C. Richmond, chief clerk ot the house of representatives for said session, on the second floor, east end of the Nebraska state house, Lincoln, Lancaster county, Nebraska, V. S. A.) which bill provides (same authority as given for preceding statement of fact) that any reporter who shall publish or circulate either orally or In writing or printing any statement In re gard to the conduct In public or private of any public officer or candidate shall contain as an Integral 'part thereof full authority as here Illustrated.

' voted to discussion of the Moon bill for the codification of the laws relating to the judiciary. The ..bill was still under con sideration when the house adjourned. Both the senate and house will meet to morrow. Senator Gallinger in his address said In part : "This bill alms to break up this monopoly through the power of an Independent American competition In new high class steamships, built for the auxiliary naval service and operated under rigid contract with the government. The purpose of the bill has the express approval of President Taft. the State department, the Postofflce department, the Navy department and the Department of Commerce and Labor." When Mr. Gallinger had finished Sena tor Hale predicted that he measure would pass the senate without difficulty. Senator Rtone, while not so optimistic, declared ha would Interpose no objection to Its pas sage. The bill then went over without further action. Mr. Gallinger expressing no desire for an Immediate vote upon It, Barrows Itefnaea to nme Day. Responding to a request from Senator Albert J. Beverldge of Indiana. Senator Julius Caesar Burrows,, chairman of the committee on privileges and elections, today refused to permit the naming of a day for taking action on the case of Senator Lorl mer of Illinois. Mr. Beverldge urged early action because of the congested condition of the calendar. Mr. Burrows replied that while at the proper time he would not stand In the way of a vote he could not consent to naming a day now, when no senator supporting Mr. Ixirlmer liad Deen heard. That no testimony has been given that would In any way connect James F. Mc-M'-iriay, an. attorney of Oklahoma, with the charges of Irregularity made by Sen ator Gore in connection with Oklahoma, In dian land affairs, was the contention of Dennis Klynn, attorney for Mr. McMurray, In his cloalng arguments before the house Investigating committee today. He said the evidence of all witnesses examined tended to clear Mr. McMurray of all com plicity In any Irregular dealings that may have been under way. Senator Gore will be given an opportunity to present his final argument tomorrow. Tiie senate committee on naval affairs today authorized a favorable report on a bill to appropriate I13S.O00 for the com pletion of the crypt of the chupol at th naval academy at Annapolis as a perma nent resting place for the body of John Paul Jones.

FINAL STAND OF OIL COMBINE! Argument Begins in Supreme Court This Afternoon. millbuhn opens for defense History of Unit for DUsotnfloo of tne Dig Corporation Which "Marled In . l.nnU Konr Inn A . WASHINGTON. Jan. 11 The final fight of the Standard Oil company for Its very existence under the present tirganliation is expected to begin late today In the supreme court of the t'nited States. The argument In the tobacco dissolution suit is expected to be concluded about half an hour before court adjourns, according to the agreement entered into hy counsel last week. John O. Mllburn then will lay before the court the foundatkin for the, defense for the Standard against the proposed dissolu tion' under the Sherman anti trust law. The suit under the Sherman anti-trust law to dissolve' the Standard OH organisa tion waa Instituted In I'JOtJ in the circuit court of the United States for the eaatern district of Missouri. The proceedings were begun by the Department of Justice In the name of the United States against 114 corporations and seven Individuals. The principal corporation was the Stand ard OH company of New Jersey. From 18S2 to the present tjme this company Is said to have operated refineries Itself, but In 19 Its stock waa Increased to 1100.000,000 so aa to enable it to acquire the stock of nineteen other oil coompanies, which In turn owned a large number of companies, concerned In the oil business. The Standard Oil company of New Jer sey was designated as a holding company and Is similar to the American Tobacco company,' the organisation of which was considered by the court during the last few days. Seven Individuals nnird. The seven individuals named In the suit as defendants were: John D. Rockefeller. William Rockefeller, Henry N. Flagler. Henry H. Rogers, John D. Archbold, Oliver H. Payne and Charles M. Pratt. The part these men are said to have played in the alleged violation of the Sher man anti-trust lawjias been summarized by the government as follows: About 1870 the Rockefellers and Flagler conceived the purpose of controlling the petroleum trade, both domestic and ex iKjit, and obtaining a monopoly thereof. They entered Into a conspiracy to accom plish this purpose, which from time to time took the form of various combina tions. Shortly after 1S70 the Rockefellers and Flagler were Joined In the conspiracy by Rogers, Archbold, Tayne and Pratt. The fdrm which the alleged conspiracy took Is described by the government as being from 1870 to 1SS2, "a combination between a large number of manufacturers, who acted in harmony and whose stock Interests were pooled In the hands of three trustees in 1879." From 18.S2 to 18S9. the form of the alleged combination was that of a trust agreement wherehv the stock I of a large number of corporations was placed In. the hands of trustees, who man aged the property. From 1899 to the pres ent time, the combination is alleged to have taken the form of a holding com pany, the Standard OH company of New Jersey. Decree of Circnlt C'onrt. The four judges In the circuit court found that the; Standard OH was an Illegal com bination In restraint, of Interstate com merce and was also monopllzing the oil trade. A decree was entered enjoining the holding company from exercising any con trot over the subsidiary companies, and enjoining the .subsidiary companies from paying any dividends to the holding com pany. All were enjoined from engaging In Interstate commerce until the Illegal combination was discontinued. The court also found that the Standard Oil: Produced more than one-tenth of the crude oil obtained In this country.. Owned and' operated more than one- half of all the tank cars used to dta tilbute Its products. Manufactured more than three-quarters of all the crude oil refined In the t'nited States. Transplanted more than four-fifths of the petroleum derived from the Pennsyl vania and Indiana oil fields. Marketed more than four-fifths of all the illuminating oil sold In the United States. Kxported more than four-fifths of an the Illuminating oil sent forth from the United States. Sold more than four-fifths of all the naphtha sold In the United States. Sold inure than nine-tenths ot all the lubricating oil sold to the railroad com panies In the United States.
