The wage-earners num- but 59,408, who receive $82,640,303 wages; These figures are impressive hutjnot more so than these which in- ‘dlcate the national consumption of to- Vbaoco. Figures for theloutput of 1006 cigars and 3433993322 cigarettes were manufactured in these United ‘ States in' 1904. Americans smoke fit lr own cigars and cigarettes, for while the annual value of cigars in .1905 was $108,186,382. only $59. 663 worth were exported, and the imports footed up to $4,028,107. With cigarettes the United States did a little better . in foreign trade, furnishing other na- tions with $2, 934, 376 out of the $16,- ‘ 354, 803 worth it manufactured.

' The rain was the result of a disturb. once over the lake region and not much of a fall could be expected, al- thought it rained with some determ- , luatlon nearly all the morning. it is about three months since rain of any amount fell, the last storm be« ing on June 6, although there were ‘showers on June 29 and 30. and in this section there was a mild eiectri. cal storm late in July and a suspicion of dampness a few days ago. General speaking, on authority of ‘ihe New Haven forecast observer, it has been three months of dryness. Not much rain is expected, although con- ditions are likely to be disagreeable. After one more session of tho Coll- Nnectlcut legislature people may have to take out a license to breathe. FANHIONI AND CULINARY.

The case is the suit in euqity brought by the government in St. Louis against the. Standard Oil Company ,by which the government seeks to dissolve the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey and to enjoin it from receiving rebates and discriminating rates. The deten deals are John D. Rockefeller, Wil- liam Rockefeller John D. Archbold H. H. Rogers, 0. M Pratt and seventy corporations of which the New Jersey Corporation is the holding company. This includes the Standard Oil Com- pany of lndlana ,whlch was recently fined-more than $29,000,000 by Judge Landis. Former Judge Franklin Ferries, ap- pointed by the United States Circuit. court of St. Louis will sit as master to hear the testimony that is to be to- . lien in this city. The government's chief‘lawyer is Frank B. Kellogg, of 'St; Paul, who has been appointed a deputy attorneysgeneral for the poo 'pose of conducting the examination of witnesses. He will be assisted by C. B. Morrison, ex-United States at- torney of Illinois. Many witnesses have been subpoenaed, and it is likely that some prominent men are includ- ed, but who the witnesses are will not be divulgd until the hearing is in pro- gross. The Standard Oil Company will be represented by a distinguished array of counsel. it was reported today thatvthey would ask for a postpone- ment on the plea that they had not had stimulant. time to prepare their case, but the government officials havo indicated that they would fight against an adjournment. The proceedings, it is said, will in- volve the very life of the Standard Oil Company. so that a royal battle is eltchtod. Hearings will be held in several cities, after the work here is over. The taking of testimony in the suit was postponed today until Thursday at the request of counsel for the de- feendant company. It was announced that the adjournment would really in- cilitate matters inasmuch as the op- posing attorneys are ill consultation as to matters of proof and various other matters which 'conld best be handled in their preliminary stages at least out of court. The attorneys for the government were ready to pro- ceed, when Judge Ferries took the bench today, but offered no opposition to the postponement requested by the defense. . The principal feature of the brief session today was the making public of a partial list of witnesses which in- dicated the wide scope of the testi- mony expected to be taken here. Head- lng the list is William G. Rockefel lcr, a director in most of the seventy affiliated oil companies named as de- fendants in the government's suit Second in prominence comes E. C. Benedict, the life-long friend of former President Cleveland, the head of E. C. Benedict and Company. bankers. Mr. Benedict was present today ill answer to a subpoena. CHARTER OAK RACES.
