TOW LAWSON TELS STORY OF OPRER AND lL First Instalment of His Revelations About the Amalgamated Concern Just Made Public in a Magazine Article, Despite Standard Oil Magnates. The first installment of Thomas W. Lawson's story of Amalgamated Bopper has just been made publi ia Everybody's Magazine, | It deals almost entirely with Standard Oil's connection with the gigantic sombination in which the public lost a hundred million dollars, and in the pollapse of which followed a train of ruin and death. There are many things bf interest in this first article, which the publishers have declared from UUme to time al! the Influence of the Standard Ol] magnates and others {o- volved was exerted to suppress.
