"Nr. Dndd says that Standard oil

for whom the phrase Standard OH is
an accurate and convenient synonym,
do not own any railroad stock or CON

Allegations Of Ministers Are False


Defends Great OIL nasnase-says
Allegations Of Ministers Are False
and Vile.
New York. April IS. C. T. Dodd.
Company. gave out 4 statement yester-
day with reference to the recent dis
cussion as to the acceptance o. = sitt
OF 100000 offered by John d. Rocke-
feller for missionary work.
Mr.. Dodd declares that the state.
ment that Mr.. Rockefeller made his
money dishonesty lis false. is vile
and. being made by ministers in the
pretended interest OF morality. is
doubly vile"
Mr.. Dodd then says that the Stan
dard OIL Company does not own a
share OF stock In any railway; does
not control any railroad company. and
that since the enactment OF the Inter
state commerce law. has not received
lower rates than other shippers by re-
bates. arrangements. devices or plans
OF any character.
The testimony OF Howard Page.
freight agent OF the Standard OIL
Company. before the Industrial Com
mission. is quoted in this connection.
With reference TO gas and copper
companies. Mr.. Dodd says:
No doubt many have been preju.
diced against Mr.. Rockefeller by SEN
satIonal writer's. whose articles. &C
companied by portraits and carica'
lures. are intended to create the i'm
preston tn, Mr.. Rockefeller was prin.
cipal In the affairs relating TO the or.
ranizatIon OF the gas and copper com
panIes. although no fact showing such
connection is stated. The Standard OIL
Company has already denied that Il
had any Connection or interest. directly
or Indirectly. In the organization OF
these corporations. and on the best au'
thority the same denial Is now made
for John d. Rockefeller. He had no
connection with nor interest In. direct.
ly or indirectly. tho organization Of
these corporations"

In his statement Mr.. Dodd says:
There may well be n difference OF
opinion on the abstract question
whether the board OF missions should
receive gifts unless satisfied that tho
gIyer Is honest: but all will agree that
II he who would bring his sift TO the
altar must come with clean hands. st!ll
more should he who ministers At the
altar and receives the Gift be free
from stain. There Is no excuse Tor
those who make money dishonesty.
and s;ill less excuse for those who. In
the name OF religion. falsely accuse
their fellow men"
