D. Elliott, United States marshal, In
q letter to John Worthington, the chief
lobbyist for the Standard Oil comps
ny, was commenced before the legisla-
tive investigating committee today.
The letter of Marshal Elliott in
wolves Governor-elect Dawson, Sssse
tary of State-elect Swisher, Attorney
General-elect C. w. May and almost all
the members Of the legislature in
scheme to defeat gas and oil measure
pending before the assembly.
The measure, in its provisions, is det-
rimental to the interests Of the Stand
by, including Speaker Of the House
Grosscup, has been opposing the pas
sage of the bill. The same measure
was introduced in both houses. The
senate measure was killed last week,
Notwithstanding the publication Of the
Elliott letter. The house bill is still
Enacted upon.
The source by which the letter was
secured by the newspapers was adduced
in evidence before the committee.
Charles Brooke Smith testified that he
had found the letter in his room in a
hotel and handed copy of it to
newspaper man, after. which the COM
mittee adjourned until tomorrow, when
the original letter will be produced.
This is considered the opening gun
of an exposure of Standard Oil " graft !"
involving high officials of West Vir-

Before the labors Of the COMMITTEES
are completed, it is thought that Thorn

tell what he knows Of Standard Oil
and West Virginia politics. Some cor
respondence has been passed between
the Boston broker and the special in.
