After some sparring Post said he thought George R. Bunker, the general manager, was in charge of the refinery of the National company. “Do you know whether that refinery cost $750,000?” “I think it cost nearer to $1,000,000.” “Is the Mollenhauer refinery running to its full capacity?” “No, to about one-half.” “Since when?” “Since November.” The chairman tried to get the witness to admit that his companies ran to their full capacity at the same time that the American refineries did. ,He said only that he should think both would be sub‘ ject to the same influences. ‘ “Do you know that the American com- pany produces 1,200,000 every year?” I ‘NO.

The witness, in answer to persistent questions, said the capacity of the two re- fineries represented by him was 230,000 or 240,000,tons and the actual output 200,000 tons a year. He expressed doubt that the American company had made 9 per cent and accumulated a large surplus last year, but in such guarded terms that Senator Lexow said: “Assemblyman War- ner calls my attention to the fact that you are side tracking the thing again. Is it be- cause the business which you represent has not made a quarter-of a cent a pound profit that you doubt the profit of the American company?” “Yes, sir.” "Is that because there is an underlying agreement that the profits shall be the same?” “ There is no agreement.” , He said that the demand of his com- panies and the American did not fix the price of sugar, which was fixed by the whole world. Sometimes sugar was ship- ped here and then shipped abroad again.~ A very slight fluctuation was sufficient to cause this, one-sixteenth of ' one-eighth cent a pound, which often took place in the two weeks or a. month for which stock was carried. “Did the various refineries run to their full capacities prior to the formation of the to better protect depositors We deem it ad visable to order a. suspension of business for a time. ’-’ , A Present to Yale.

Owing to over-crowding and bad ventil- ation, the air of the schoolroom is often close and impure, and teachers and pupils fre- quently sufler from lung and throat trou- bles.

The laborious work of the protracted and exciting Presidential canvass 'of 1896 had a most injurious effect on many of the active participants, and al- ready there have been three deaths of conspicuous public men, accelerated by labors in the campaign—John ‘1.

In the Treasury Department at Washington has recently been found the original warrant, dated 1825, which directs the Treasurer of the United States to pay to Gen. Lafayette the sum of $200,000 for his services in the Revolutionary War. The document is badly torn, as well as much faded, and bears the indorsement: “Received Payment, Jan. 11, 1825.

In Colorado and Utah no distinction of sex is made in compiling the returns, but in_\Vyom- ing the female vote is given separately.
