MONSTER TRUST FORMED.
London PaDer Says Rockefeller,

London July 3O.-ln its issue Of
this morning the Daily Mail asserts
there is no longer any doubt that the
three monster oil interests of Rookie
Teller, Rothschild and Nobel have en-
tered into n working agreement.
"Thus,' says the paper without
any publicity the greatest trust the
world has ever seen has sprung into
being"
This combination, says the paper,
has been limited at in messages from
Batoum and Moscow, and it has been
more clearly shown in the offers
made to Russian oil exporters by
representatives of the Nobel and
Rothschild's interests for the absorp-
tion of the whole Of their output
The exporters have been forbidden
to sell through the agencies of these
interests at q price arranged by
them, or TO fight the combined forces
of the three oil giants. This offer
was made openly and with the idea
of maintaining prices, and it has
been refused, the Russian exporters
preferring to fight, It was doubtless
this combine, continues the Daily
Mail, which induced the Russian gov
eminent to issue invitations to an
antitrust conference The spokes-
men Of the great combine declare it
means fight TO the death, and that
