TEXAS AFTER ROCKEFELLER
EGOrt Made to EStrudtte standard OIL
Magnatc from state OF
New York.

ALBANY. y. Y. Oct 11.-There was
quite n coed deal OF a miX-up here today
over an attempt to strais h,on out the po-
stion OF the requisltion Of Gov,rn,r
Sayers of Texas for the person Of WiI-
liam Rockefeller and other members Of
the board of directors Of the Standard
OH company Several statements were
given out, variously alleging that Gov
eiror Roosevelt or Acting Governor Wood
run had taken final action in the matter,
but tonight 1t is ascertained that the only
action taken IN the case was by Judge
Bryce, the governors pardon clerk. who
gave to Governor Sayers' counsel an opin-
ion that unless his papers Of requIsition
could state that the persons wanted had
been in the state Of Texas and had com
mtted a crime there they could not be
taken from this state. Judge Bryce gave
this opinion to Cullen Bryan Of Governor
Sayers' counsel two weeks ago, when that
gentleman came here looking for the gov
ernor, and it was given on the grounds
Of a decision Of Governor Flower made In
1895 in the same case as now. Governor
Flower had refused extradition asked by
Governor Hogg on the decision of the
United States supreme court, Judge Har-
Ian, that person could not be taken tc
state for trial unless having committed
crime in that state in person.
AS far as Governor Roosevelt is concerned
he has not acted in the matter because o
absence from the state. The position Of Mr.
Woodruff, Who is governor In Mr. Roose
velts absence, is explained In the folowinl
statement by him tonight; Il have not rem
dered any decision in the matter. II wa
presented to me informally three weeks agt
by interested persona and then said tha
It did not seem proper for me, as actin
governor, TO dispose OF such an importan
case, but, inasmuch as but a few weeks a
the most would espse before Governo
Roosevelt's return to the state, thought /
should be submitted to him. However a
II has run now over a period OF sil
years, three weeks delay. to my mind, woul
have but little effect.
