Washington, Nov. 11—In connec- tlon with the publication in New York of a story to the effect that the Outlook magazine, with which Pres- Ident Roosevelt had signed a contract to become an associate editor, is con- trolled by James H. Stillman, desig- nated as “the silent man of the Stand- ard Oil party, the trusted business associate of the malefactors of great wealth” and the friend, aide and ad- viser of E. H. Harriman, brought forth from the White House the fol- lowing official statement: concern with the question as to who are the stockholders of the Outlook. His concern.is with the general policy of the paper, which is and has been consistenty admirable in every re- spect. The president will be respon- sible only for what he himself writes and his probable future attitude must be judged by his action in the past.” OCCASIONS MUCH INTEREST Story That Stillman Controls the Outlook. New York, Nov. 1i—Much interest was occasioned here by the publica- tion of a report that James Stillman, president of the National City bank, popularly known as the “Standard Oil bank,” is controlling owner of the Outlook, of which President Roose- velt is to become a “contributing ed- itor” when he retires from office. Offi- cers of the Outlook company refuse to make public the name of any of the owners of its $150,000 capital stock. The published report credited Mr. Stillman with owning 1,000 of the total issue of 1,500 shares. “The company is not a public serv- ice corporation,”™ was the reply of William B. Howlands, treasurer and one of the directors of the Outlook company, when he was questioned re- garding the authenticity of the re- port. “It is under no obligation to give the names of its stockholders or other particulars regarding its affairs. It is a private business, but the names of its directors may be found in the manuals and the name of Mr. Still- man is not one of them. We can give no information regarding the identity or holdings of a single stockholder.” Woman in Critical Condition. Denver, Nov. 1lL—Weakened ‘ by disease and drugs Mrs. Allen F. Read, who threatened the life- of Mrs. Gen- evieve Chanler Phipps with dynamite last Monday, may never live to un- dergo the experiences of the prison.
