Man Appears Mysteriously in
His Sweetheart's Photograph.

Threatening Her Life Apparently. fit so
Frightens The Young Lady That She
Bresks Her Engagement, and
the Young Man la Much
Wort led.
A letter from Lo ^don, Eng. says
one of tlie weidest phononaena In the
history of photography has caused
Miss Gl&dy's Manning, a beautiful
Southampton girl, to break her engagement
with L'eut. G rdon Waters,
now on service in India.
11 every one of a dcz ;n photographs
the camera revealed & ghoitlv figure
with dagger in hand hovering over
her. Soe recognized the figu'e as her
fiance ar.d immediately broke t .1 engagement,
believing tn&t it w*s
warning of what would bsppm
should she become ids bride.
The course of true love ran smooth
for this couple until Lieutenant Waters
was called to India. He expected
to return to return to E:i gland on a
furlough In a year and take his bride
back to India with him for the remainder
of his service.
Letters were t xohanged with regularity
during six months and the
preparations for the wedding had
been commerced. Then one day an
old friend, an unsuccessful rival of the
Indian cUlcer, paid a parting cah. II
was on his way to America in a few
days and begged for a pbut< graph.

to call at a well known puutographers
studio.
Two days later, Instead of th? expeeled
proofs, came a short letter of
apology. Would she please make
soother appointment?an accident

Her Loudou trips were very frequent
just then. She sat again without a
murmur. Again a letter of apology
instead of proofs. This time the lot
ter was lv)Lg?r and sp)!o vaguely ol
strau^o action of the light.
\ The photographers r? quest for s
c third sitting was granted with the
mildly expreased hope that nothing
1 would happen this time. S?vera
strangers were about the studio dur
i-. log the third attempt. Miss Manning

As easiness was further increased whei

begged her to come to his studio a

de&vor to explain why it was lmpossl

Mr>. Manning and her daughtei
.took the next train to the metropol s
The photographer led them Into a
private room and produbed a handfu
of plates.
Before showing the plates to tht
mvbtitied women, ha a*kcd of Misi
Manning: Do you you happen toknow
a very tall young lieutenant with darb
skin and light hair?"
'Why, yes, I do." answered Mis*
Manning, glancing at her mother.
Well perhaps you cau account foi

anything like this happen to me but

in each ca>e her picture was clcai

f 'J-here was no qucstioi* of identity.

frowning and ilnster. Sometimes the

4 . otwetimes on the right of his fiancee,
^)ut more of ton behind her. in every
folate the dogger was held close to
(.'Alis> Manning. Three plates s owed
J him holding it point downward just
above her head. Ia others it was at
her throat and breast. The poise ol
the mysterious tigure showed that it
was not In the act of striking a blow,
but held itself balanced In readiness
to stab.
" So ominous and threatening was
the t fTact that the two women were
Quite overoome.
"What do you think it means?"
tbey asked.
Were you thinking or worrying
very bard about him?" be asked in
reply.
Miss Manning was quite sure that
during the first two sittings her mind
w?s full of shopping, and at the third
her thoughts were trylug to account
for the curiosit y she was Inspiring.
"I hoped It might jhave been
thought transference from' your mind
t-o the plate," he said. "1 have
of this happening often to other pho- |
tographers, but It happened to jade
only onoe." t/w*
Pressed for details of thlB one previous
case, the photographer reluctantly
gave them. They were fir from
reassuring.
A man just befoie Ms wedding had
sat for his picture. The figure of a
woman appeared on every p*ate- She
too, was slnster ?and had a^revolver
instead of & dagger in her hand. The
man rechgnized her as one who believed
abe had & claim on his affection
was much disturbed by the plates and
insisted on destroying them,
He was married, and soon after
set out with his bride for Sydney,
Australia.
And what happened?" asked Miss
Manning when the narrative paused
at this point.
"He committed Euioide and was
burled at aea," he answered. That is
all I know.
Hut he did know more. There w*s
d' uM. as to whoever It was a cu?e of
suicide or murder. The woman who
j * -
nan appeared mysteriously on toe
plates had been a passenger on the
steamer, and the youhg widow had
stated that It was her oplulon that
she wan Implicated even If she had
not done the shooting herself.
The photographer, wishing to test
the phenooieua more throughly, had
brought several witnesses to observe
Miss Manning's third shtlog. One i f
these witnesses had made a sep\ra<e
exp )su-? simult-neouslv with one of
the regular camera's pictures. This
p'ate showed the ghostly visitor standing
behind the girl, with the dagger
above her head. The large camera revealed
him In the same position,
though In one case It was a rrout view
and In the other a pre tile.
Miss Mannihg is not a student of
psychology or metaphgs'cs. If she
has any theory for the explanation of
her strange pictures It must be gue-is
ed at, fur she will not discuss the
sub loot,
Hut der mental processes, whatever
they were, resulted In speedy tc ion.
Not twenty-four hours after examining
the plates a letter was on its wa>
to Lieutenant Waters notifying turn
that he might consider himself a free
man. It Is said that she frankly
admitted the photographs were the
cause.
Lieutenant Waters has by no means

FLAYS OIL TRUST
In Message to Congress Presi
dent Roosevelt Brands as
COLOSSAL ROBBERS
The Standard Oil Combines. Which He
Says Has Enriched Itself by Crimes.
Commissioner Garfield's Proof
of Monopoly's Guilt the
Basis of Charts.
President Roosevelt, in a message
to Congress Friday indulged In a sevor^
denunciation of the Stand vd Oil
monopoly, charging Hand the railroads
of toe Cjuutry with ail manner of of
fenses against, the Interstate Commerce
and Antl R?bate laws. The c large*
against this vicltus monopoly were
timed psychologically with the approaching
vote in the Senate on the
raiir' ad rate bill, the P'es'dent's pet
measure, which he U determin? d shall
go on the Federal statute books. B it
Ltiis belated laying bare of the Hi/rant
and persistent violation of the. law by
the Riokefeller monoply is two years
behind the times.
In 1904 the same cha-g-\s against
the O.l combine were made by Congressman
William Randolph Hearst
in all bis newspapers, and in Decom
ber of last year he proposed a remedy
In the shape of a bill to Increase the
powers of the Interstate Commerce
Commission and to or ate an Interstate
Commerce Court, whleti would
have made impossible a continuation
of such defiance of the United StaUs
laws.
The hill served as a model for the
Esch-Townserid hill, and was killed by
it e Administration. For jetrs the
Goverum nt has paid no attention to
ti e repealed accusations against the
Standard O.l Company, whose crimes
are calmly enumerated by the President
and Commissioner Garftild today.
Despite the suoerlatlveness of the
denunciatory adjectives used by tlie
President and Commissioner Gaifield,
which accuse the Standard Oil monop
oly of divers and sundry offenses
against Federal laws, the Department
of Justice, In almost the same breath,
announces that It will try to prosecute
only under tho Anti-Rebate law, of
whicn the maximum penalty for conviction
is only a fine of a sum. Which
at most would be considered paltry by
the millionaire defendants.
In other words, should all the
C t n t?fln ?/1 /til t ill / I n In nil # . \ n vit (1 *aa /I
OL'AiiiiAiii v/ti on iiii: i c* 11' ur\i i
chiefs of the country be convicted,
they would merdy have 10 Boraten
their pens across the bottom of chicks
for suras Infinitesimal as compared
with the prodts secured from toe ille
gal and secret rates and rebates,
and go on committing the same
crimes against the laws of the land
Then, by putting the screws under
the price-list anew and tacking a cent
or two on to the rate for oil, the trust
would get all Its money back .vith
enormous interest.
Commissioner Garfield's lnvestiga
tlons unearthed undeniable proof of
the guilt of the Oil Trust and the
ral'roads, and his specific charges
formed the basis for the President's
message and recommendations to Congress.

lie accused the oftlsials of the company
of criminal methods and strip
ped the fabric of their boasted organi/itlon
bare; showed It to oe a mass
of corruption; a comblnatinn delimit
of every law of the land, aud even of
decent business amenities; a heartless
and wynton destroyer of competitors
and a menai.C3 to the country.
Thr revelations in the report of
Commissioner G.irlield ai-e almost asrounding.
They expose, so fir as the
Standard O 1 Company is corcirned,
exactly the same methods that Wil
llam R. Hearst has urovereiln the
coal roads trust and the alliance between
the S'K'ar Trust and fie great
railroads. It is significant to note
that Commissioner Garflold'B exposure
illuminates the situation with examples
of precisely the Hame kinds of
rebates, r^fone's and other ll)p?al fav
or as the coal c ises and toe si gir oa^s
have dcvJopvd.
Inotherwords.lt tends to prove
what Congressman Hearst and many
writers and investigators have con
tended for a long time?that the
Standard created the system ami pi rfected
it and the coal roads and the
Sugar Trust and the other trusts are
only imltoturs und followers of the
mos gigantic trust of them all.
Seldom has organized capital been
so ruthiesSiy plltoried. Oimmisston*
er Gartield presents an array of facts
and figures that would convince the
most skepptlcal and he does It with a
clearness that a child could understand.
He nos only convicts the *011 Trust
of ilagrant and persistent violations
of the law, but accuses lis officials of
deliberate lying. He says that at
the beginning of the investigation the
officials of the Standard Oil said the
company had not obtained and was
then not obtaining secret rebates
from tne railroad*. Ht then prooeeds
to Bbow tl at the com par y has habitually
received aud is still reoeivlrg ,
suoh rebatef, and he oitee case after
case Id proof.
Probably no more opportune time
oould have been elected by the Preei
dent to send the report to Congress 1
Just as the Senate is about to begin 1
voting on the railroad rate bill. The 1
President believes the factf revealed 1
by Commissioner Gartield constitute
toe best argument yet presented that 1
the ynly effective remedy for secret 1
rebating and open preferential ratings I
Is through government regulation, <
with only such restrictions as arc neo- <
ces^ry under the Constitution. I
Oae of the mostslgnlticant features i
of the report is that when the attention
of the railroads was called to
certain spec!tie Instances of rebating 1
discovered by Mr. Gartt Id, uhey discontinued
the practice thereby ac- 1
knowledglng their guilt. 1
The President's only reoommenda 1
ttons in his message are that the lm- 1
munlty law be corrected, that the
free alcohol bill be passed, which
would be a set-back for the Standard <
and that the further by
the trusts of coal and oil land* owned
by the Government be prevented.
Alread/ the Department of Jus
Mre bas taken up the matter of pros
rout Jons of the Standard Oil Company
and the various railroads involved, on
the f-ots learned by Commls*ton?r
Gartield. In this connection It should 1

Purify tUe State Dispei sary
System x
S mator Tillman is greatly pleased
with the result in the ccuity coven
lions throughout South Carolina, says
the Washington correspondent of the
Columbia Utcord. Ho has been so
busy with railroad rate legislation he
has not had much time to analj /r the
situation county by county, but there
was an expression of satisfaction
throughout.
Naturally he Is pleased with the
strong endorsement given him in
many counties and the evident lack
of anything like opposition to h'm
among the people of the state.
yonu this, however, he is greatly
natistied with the showing made by
the dispensary people In all directions
lie Is more tirmly convinced now than
ever, he says, that in the c junties
where the dispensary was voted out
there was tu real expression of a ma
jorlty of the people. He predicts that
practioahy every county in the s ate
wih, as quickly as possible, desert the
prohibition farce it lias in v Jgue and
return to the control of the whiskey
trulllc uDdar the dispensary system.
Senator Tillman said that it was
plainly evident that the wave of
opposition to the dispensary that ran
through the state for awhile is petering
out and he believes that the in
stitutlon, under promise cf better
management and laws that will pre
vent corruption and fraud, will be
sustained by a larger majority than
over before known in the state. The
senator renews his promise to lead a
tight that will mean rurifl:aiion of
the dispensary system and the enaction
of laws that will prevent a re
turn to corruption. II* belle v ?s that
the people have wisely concluded that
it is uot the system that is at fault,
but the lack of proper laws and the
administration of the business by
enemies of the institution. With
stricter laws and lu the bands of its
friends in the future there ought not
to bo a recurrence of the things that
j i. ? *
disgusted many people fer a locg
time.
The moral effect of the results of
thecmnty conventions will be good
throughout, the state, it is believed
by the senator. It demonstrates the
strength of the dispensary fotoas and
sho/vs to them that if they will turn
out at ti e primaries they have the
votes to forever settle the question in
the right way. Senator Tiliin&n believes
that ? very friend of the dispensary
system should unhesitatingly
insist on candidates for the legislature
answering direct!), without evasion,
Questions showing how they slaad 01
the dispensary question. If they do

will be in a bad way. That there is j
