Peoria. Ill. May 12.-According to
a statement made today to the Asso-

requisition papers for the two indicted
Standard Oil officials, presented to the
governor recently, but the authorities
at Springfield, acting presumably on
the advice of the attorney generals
Office. refused to grant them on the
ground that as the alleged subornation
of perjury was committed in Ohio, the
men should be punished there.
Mr.. Schaefer, states attorney, says
that he does not believe that the gov
ernor ever saw the papers and that he
is going to lay the matter before him
personally.
Sheriff Clay of TazeweII county took
the papers to Springfield and they
were presented to the governors Sec
Fetary. Later they were returned to
him with the statement that they
would not be signed for the reasons
given above.
Mr.. Schaefer is now convinced that
a secret service man in the employ of
the Standard Oil company was present
during the session, of the grand jury
which convicted the two officials.
