ROCKEFELLER SENDS MESSAGSE
Head of Standard Oil Company Telegraphs Senators
to Stop Antitrust Legislation.

He did not remain long. When he
formed, a bit CURLY, that his presence
here vas undesirable and he left with
an intimation that it would be better
for him to return to New York.
During the afternoon information
concerning the receipt of messages
leaked out and became the subject Of
some quiet cloak room discussions at
the senate. The news also reached
the house, some of the prominent rep
resentatives learning for the first
time that the Standard Oil company
through it's attorney, had attempted to
influence legislation at this session.
Attorneys, it was said, had opposed
the adoption of amendments to the
measure suggested by Attorney Gen
eral Knox to the house judiciary COM
mittee. Subsequently when what is
known as the Littlefield bill was re-
ported to the house it can be said on
the best of authority, that the Stand
ard Oil company's counsel began to
devote their opposition particularly
to the Nelson amendment to section
6 of the department of commerce
bill-the amendment which contains
practically the publicity features of
the Knox antitrust bill. They did
not want that incorporated in the
measure and it is said used their ut
most efforts to prevent it's favorable
consideration. They were, u%nsuccess-
full as, the bill with that amendment
was adopted unanimously, by on
ferees of both branches of congress.
The action of the c%onferees approved,
it is understood, with satisfaction by
officials of the administration as it is
regarded as a long and essential step
toward antitrust legislation that both
the president and the attorney gener-
al believe will be effective. 1t is this
legislation particularly that the Stand
ard Oil company so vigorously object
ed to and which it hoped might be
headed off or emasculated through ap.
peals made to senators before it

CAUSED BY COCAINE VICE
TO USE OF THE DRUG.
Five Chicago Druggists Indicted by
the Grand Jury for Its Un-
lawful Sale.

Chicago, Feb. 2.-The use of CO.
caine-held by leading physicians
and others to be the greatest vice I'M
der which Chicago is now struggling
is to be curtailed by law.
Already five druggists who are al
legged to have sold the brain-destroy-
ing drug in violation of the law, have
been indicted by the grand jury.

gun his Investigations
The use of the drug is not limited
to any class, physicians say, as the
sale of small walls and boxes of the
product of the cocoa leaves testifies
to its grasp on residents of fashion
able hotels and houses on the boule-
wards.
Wilhelm Rodemann, treasurer of
the state board of pharmacy, testified
before the grand jury that in his
opinion the many wrecks On the rail
roads could be traced to the use of
cocaine by the employees of these
companies, and out of this statement
grew the investigation that has re-
vealed the widespread use of the drug.
Many letters written by wives who
pleaded with druggists to refuse CO.

under this law the grand jury and
the states attorney are acting.

Washington, Feb. Sit can be stat
ed by authority that unless antitrust
legislation, at least reasonably salts
factory to the administration, is leg
islated at the present session, the
president, on the 9Th of March, will
call ar extra session of the Fifty
eighth congress. The president has
told members of congress of his de-
sire and of his determination in this
regard.
1t is further stated that the determ-
ination of the president was reached
only after careful consideration that
strenuous efforts are being made to
defeat any antitrust legislation by
congress. These efforts have covered
a wide range. They were characterize
ed today by one republican leader, to
quote him direct, as 'the most re-
markable of which l have personal
knowledge during my past public life"
These efforts eliminated during the
past sc hours, it is now declared, in di-
rect appeals from the Standard Oil
company, through it's president, MI.
John D. Rockefeller, to members of
the senate, not to enact any antitrust
legislation at this time. No less than
six United States senators have re-
ceived kilograms signed John D.
Rockefeller" urging that no antitrust
legislation be enacted. 1t has not been
possible to obtain a copy of these dis
patches, which, it IAN be stated, are
practically identical. Substantially
they read as follows:
I'VE are opposed to any antitrust
legislation. Our counsel, Mr.. -,
will see you. It must be stopped"
AS stated, these telegrams-and
it must be clear that only the sub
stance and not the exact wording is
here given-were signed John D.
Rockefeller"
Yesterday morning one of the
sci of the Standard Oil company ar
rived in Washington and called i'm
mediately upon members of the SEN
ate, as indicated in the kilograms.

reached the stage of actual passage.
1t is said by authority that the adj
ministration hopes that the Elkins
rebate bill which was passed by the
senate this week will be passed by
the house. While this measure is
opposed also by those who are in
favor of no ANTITRUST legislation, the
special opposition to it does not come
from the Standard Oil company be-
cause it is explained that corporation
has grown beyond any effects the en-
forcement of such legislation might
have upon it. The president. it is un-
dersood, regards the Elkins bill as es-
sential to the rounding out of the adj
m~inistration's plan for antitrust leg
islation and it is believed by those
in close touch with him and with the
forces in congress that it may yet be
enacted into law.
Tonight the efforts being made to
defeat or emasculate the pending
antitrust legislation formed the SUBJ
ject of animated conferences. Indeed
the subject is likely to be developed
into some detail in congress. The re-
ceivers of one of the kilograms sign
ed by John D. Rockefeller" said that

LOW STOCKS CAUSE MARKET TO
REMAIN FIRM.
SEASONS CLIP SOLD
Wyoming Concern Discounts Future
and Sells 1908 Clip for Fair Price
Territories Remain Strong.

The sales OF wool on the Boston
market for the week ending February
5 amounted to a total of 3,465, 900
pounds. OF this aggregate 1850, 900
pounds was territory, which sold at
from IA to 10 cents a pound.
The market is decidedly quieter,
says the American Wool and Cotton
Reporter. A few fair-sized lines of
territory, amounting individually to
between n and two hundred thou
sands, have been moved the past
week, but the only other classes of
stock which have shown any decided
life, have been pulled woods and Aus
tralians.
Manufacturers are not manifesting
the interest in domestic woods which
they were, but, on the other hand,
while holders of stock are naturally
DESTROYS of clearing their lofts be-
tween now and clip time, there is as
yet no disposition to force wool upon
consumers.
One element of strength in the sit
uation is the fact that stocks here
are light, and it would not require
a very long continuance of a good
is available here. Prices therefore
are steadily maintained notwith-
standing the quietness prevailing, al
though even a slight concession on
the part of those who have any siz-
able stock to sell would have resulted
the past week in moving a consider
able amount of wool. Some of the
buyers coming into the market are
not willing to pay full prices today,
and for hat reason, on some lines
the buyer and seller are apart
The Goods Market.
The clothing trade continue to buy
heavyweight goods very conserva-

lines. In a number Of cases mill men
report that they are we'll sold up, but
taking the heavyweight goods, as a
whole, it cannot be said that they
have moved very rapidly. Woolens
have sold comparatively better than
worsteds. The business which has
been placed, however, possesses a
stability which has been lacking in
some previous seasons. The develop
ments of the goods season have not
been of a character thus far to create
anything like a hurrah in the trade
and consumers, as a whole, are Qper-
ating in the wool market with great
conservatism and care, taking only
such stock as they absolutely need.
The result of this cautious procedure
on the part of the manufacturers is
reflected in somewhat reduced sales
from January l to date, az compared
with those of the corresponding time
in 1902. The heavyweight goods sea-
