TOWER ASKS LEAVE

TO QUIT SERVICE! American Ambassador to Germany Would Quit the Diplomatic Corps. WOULD LIVE AT HOME. ASSIGNS AS A REASON FOR HIS REQUEST THAT HIS PERSONAL AFFAIRS ARE IN NEED OF ATTENTION. Berlin, Oct. 5. Ambassador Tower has written President Roosevelt asking that he be permitted to retire from the diplomatic service next spring. Mr. Tower's reasons are understood to be that, having been abroad for nearly eleven years, he desires again to live in his own country In order to have a home there for his sons, who are now nearly ready to go to Harvard university and to give his personal attention to his extensive financial, mining and railroad interests that have been left to the supervision of others during his long absence. "As the lease on Mr. Tower's home in Berlin does not expire until some time next spring, It Is presumed that he will remain as ambassador until after that time. Mr. and Mrs. Tower and two young daughters are at present in Baden-Baden. They intend to return here at the end of this month. Is Dean of the Service. Mr. Tower's retirement will remove from the diplomatic list one of the most experienced of the American representatives In Europe. He has been continually minister and ambassador longer than any other diplomat In the American service. In addition to the public questions with which Mr. Tower has dealt while at this post, such as assisting in the tariff negotiations and the opening recently of negotiations regarding the status of American citizens of German birth in Alsace-Loraine. Mr. Tower has had exceptionally agreeable relations with the American colony in Berlin. He was chiefly instrumental in placing the American association of commerce in proper relations with the German government and in obtaining for Ihe united business Interests represented by the association adequate recognition from the German authorities. Student of Foreign Politics. Mr. Tower's first experience in foreign affairs was as attache at the Spanish court thirty years ago, and during the long interval between that time and his appointment as American minister to Vienna in 1897, while actively concerned 1n railroads and the iron industry of Minnesota, he found time to give to the study of foreign politics. During this period the French government granted him especial facilities for the investigation of Lafayette's career in France, and 1 the results of these researches form part of his "Life of Lafayette." It was in recognition of this work that the French government bestowed on Mr. Tower the dignity of grand officer of the Legion of Honor. "Had dyspepsia or indigestion for years. No appetite, and what I did eat distressed me terribly. Burdock Blood Bitters cured me." J. H. Walker, Sunbury, Ohio.

EFFORT BEING MADE TO FREE JAS. SHOOK

Friends Active in Behalf of the Man Who Killed James Ryan. A PETITION CIRCULATED. IT IS BELIEVED SEVERAL MEMBERS OF THE JURY AND OTHERS IN WESTERN WAYNE WILL SIGN THE PAPER. James Shook, the young man vttio shot and killed Jack Ryan in a saloon!:. at Cambridge City about five years ago may be a free man if the efforts of his attorneys are successful. They are now going over the county visiting the jurymen who convicted Shook, asking them for their signatures to a request for a parole to be sent to Governor Hanly. a large number of people in Western Wayne county have also signed the petition. Each member of the jury, it is believed, will sign the request when it is presented to them, for since the trial there has been considerable doubt arising in the minds of many, as to whether or not he should have loen convicted. David Hoover, a member of the jury, said in regard to the case: "Yes, I signed the petition and I firmly believe that Shook should be paroled. The evidence plainly showed that both young men were under the infill ence of liquor at the time the shoot ing took place and l thiiiK it was an accident, as no ill feeling existed between them." The murder of Ryan at the hands of I Shook created considerable interest in Western Wayne county. Attracted I by the signs of a free lunch in front of a saloon tne aay neiore nnsimas, the young men entered and there they remained until both became intoxicated. Shook, who was carrying a gun, drew the weapon and shot. The ball hit Ryan, killing him instantly. Although Shook maintained his innocence of any intentional wrong doing he was convicted.

A popular novelist described at a dinner in New York the difference between realism and romanticism in Action. "To make my meaning clearer," said the author, "I will take the case of a young man and a girl sweethearts. The young man. a romanticist, said passionately to his girl, 'Darling, it shall be my life's one purpose to surround you with every comfort and to anticipate and gratify your every wish.' The girl, n realist, smiled faintly as she answered, 'Oh, Jack, how good of you, and all on $9 a week too!' " Marrylnn nn Opera Company.

SEIZES ALL MARKETS THROUGH REBATE SYSTEM Methods of the Standard Oil Are Further Shown.

New York. Oct. 5 Not content with driving its competitors out of the field by merciless slashing of prices that ! has brought many of the weaker com panies to ruin, as testified to by one witness in the governmetn's suit to dissolve the Standard Oil Company, the big monopoly has, according to the terms of a contract placed in evidence by another witness, secured by its favorite rebate system practical control of markets beyond the seas. This fact was brought out when Philip Harrison manager of the New York Lubricating Oil company, testified that his company was forced to pay a rate on oil shipped to Delagoa Bay ia South Africa two and one-half times as great as that paid by the Standard. While the Standard pays a rate of 17 shillings per ton, Mr. Harrison testified that his company was forced to pay A'Z shillings and 0 pence. Not only has the big Rockefeller concern thus secured the Delagoa Bay field for itself but an omnibus contract was placed in evidence whereby the Standard-Oil company obtains from every steamship company operating beween New York and all parts in Afri ca, a rate or one-tnira or one-nair wnat its competitors are forced to pay. And all this, said Mr. Harrison, was done in spite of the Independent companies which had repeatedly attempted without success to get better treatment from the steamship lines.
