March 24—Counsel for the Standard Oil Company at the in- vestigation being conducted by Attor- ney General Hadley of Missouri, agreed today to have moted on the ecords of the hearing an admission that the stoek of the Republic Oil Company and the Waters-Pierce 0il Company and the Standard Oil Company of Indiana was held in trust by the Standard Oil Com- | pany of New Jersey. It is expected that when the hearing | is resumed next week Attorney General | Hadley will commence his efforts to | prove the second portion of his case— namely, that the management of the Waters-Pierce Company and the Re- public Ofl Company, as well as the Standard Oil.Company, is under the su* pervision of the officers of the Standard 0Oil Company. At the conelusion of today’s hearing | Assistant Attorney General Rushlake | served upon Lawyer Hagerman, repre- senting the defense, an order requiring BRODERICK. | kis clients to produce on Monday next more than a hundred letters that are |saia to have passed befween the Tre- | spondent companies in.the West and 26 Broadway. These letters, it is un- derstood, are .expected to disclose the controk of the-two conrpanies operating in Missouri by the Standard Oil and | show that even. the detall of the man- agement is directed from 26 Broadway, DOES NOT ADMIT DEFEAT. Lawyer Hagerman of the Standard 0il Company said at the conclusion of the hearing today that he felt rather pleased at the result of the first day's work. Speaking of the admissions made as to the stock ownership of the two com- panies, he called attention to the’fact that they had not been made subject to exceptions as to their materiality, a point for the higher courts yet to pass | upon. While Attorney General Hadley | seemed to think that he had practically proved his case, Lawyer Hagerman and bthers of the Standard’s attorneys said | there w Stable Employes’ of Peruns. the use Iy keer e the bot medicine in ¢ 1ext morn- ly as good for their now that for kidney the whole | | Dike v effects ‘of s, It is certainly true that in the earlier | stages of Bright's Disease, Peruna is an effective remedy. te s on this point vond all doubt.

Hadley then read a question asked at the previous hearing, which charged that the Waters-Pierce Company and the Republic Oil Company and the Standard Oil Company of Indiana were { doing business in Missour1 in violation of that State's anti-trust law. “Is it not a faet that the stock of these three companies is held by the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey or by some person or, persons in trust for it for a combination, trust, con- federation or agreement?” the Attorney General asked. “My knowledge is extremely limited as to such details,” answered Rogers. ADMITS TRUST OWNERSHIP, Judge Johnsen, one of the attorneys for the Standard Oil Company, then had it noted on the record that the Standard Oil Company would admit that the stock of the Republic Oil Company and the Waters-Pierce Oil Company and the Standard Oil Company of Indiana was held in trust by the Standard Ofl Com- pany of New Jersey. Judge Johnson added that the admis- sion was made for the purpose of the present litigation. Judge Priest, also counsel for the Standard Oil Company, said the stock showing ‘on the stock book of the Wat- ers-Pierce Company as standing in the name of M. M. Van Buren was held in the interests of the Standard Oil Com- pany of New Jersey and that they made that admission for the purpose of this litigation. “I don't suppose the stock is held for the purpose of this litigation,” observed Attorney General Hadley. “No, the admission is made for the purposé of this litigation,” replied Judge Priest. The Standard Oil attormgys had the admissions noted on the yecord and Judge Priest said it was un@lerstood, of course, that these admissions were made subject to an exception as to their materiality, to Le passed: upea by tle higher: courts. * Atterney General Hadley then said he wished it understood that these admis- slons of stock ownership covered the period of time named in the informa- tion. The trust attorneys agreed to this and made a new. ,_“ r the purpose of thiglith 3 13, ould be admitted hat a’ majority of the | stock of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana and 21l the stock of the Re- public Oil Company was held in the interests of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey. % HADLEY CHANGES THE WORDING. “Strike out the word ‘interests,’” de- manded Hadley, “and make it read ‘held for the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey." " “Very well,” replied Judge Priest, with a smile, “make it read that way. And we also admit, for the purpose of this litigation only, subjéct to excep- tion, that all the stock of the Waters- Pierce Oil Company standing in the name of M. M. Van Buren is held in the interests of the Standard Oil Com- pany of New Jersey.” rike out that word ‘interests, again interrupted the Attorney General, and make it read ‘held for the Stand- ard Oil Company of New Jersey,’ and also I want the, admission to read that the stock is now held as admitted and was also 80 held during the time named in the information and complaint.” The change and admission were recorded as Hadley asked. “Mr. Rogers,” resumed Hadley, “have hat we can gain our ter- | mina1 condemnation proceedi | controlled and managed by oth- case it is finally adjudged tha L ern Pacific owns the land in qu “Yes, the detail work is.” Condemnation proceedings a jur We will have to prove o of greater public interest that | ds than. the Southern v a transcontinental terminal never b seeking have the lands in occupied by | | question | the Southern Pacific, and as the latter has already the Oakland and Alameda for terminals, it is difficult to imagine fair-minded jury that will | not find occupation by us more to the * interest inan occupation by the Southern Pacific.” —_——— e 1 Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey.

Hood Co., Lowell, Mass. “Gentlemen:—I have many times told my friends what Hood's Sarsaparilla has done for me, and think it only proper that I should make this public statement. Just before I became seventy years of age I was much disturbed by an eruption on my face, a little below mvy right eye. I was told that it was a cancer and was warned not to touch it. However I disturbed it some- times when I slept. For this reason, with the primary cause, impure blood, it kept spreading and enlarging, and I. fully believed I should die from cancer. Just at that time my wife happened to be taking Hood’s Sarsapa- rilla for weakness resulting from chronic diarrhoea, and bad condition of her stomach. It did her so much good that I thought I would try the medicine myself. It was remarkable how much it did for me.

I think the cause was removed, my blood became purified and all idea of cancer was dispelled. One of the doctors who had pronounced it cancer freely said he thought he must be mistaken, and with me be- lieved that the cure was due to the blood-purifying ef- fects of Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I trust this testimonial will lead all who need a blood purifier and a first-class spring medicine to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla.” Joha M.

Senator Depew decided this In a letter to Timothy Woodruf?, president of the club. He gave Il health as his excuse for not attending such a dinner. The Depew dinner has been an event in Brooklyn, and has been held on the Saturday night following April 23, the Senator's birthday. He has always been the only speaker and the Montauk dinners have always had a wide circu- lation. After the recemt insurance in- vestigation there wi a feeling in the club that this dinner would have to be abandoned, as many" members sald they would never attend another one. Senator Depew, in his letter, which was given out by Woodruff yesterday, referred to his poor health and con- tinued: “I have delayed answering your let- ter, hoping that this would pass away, so that your dinner would be one of the old kind, #nd I equal to its require- ments, its hilarity and its spirit. “Unhappily I am afraid that, for the first time In fifteen years, the Montauk dinner is to be omitted.
