HEARING AT DEs MONIES
Says That Former Employees Of stan
dard Oil Company Can Give More
Valuable Information Than Rookie
feIler or Rogers.

Des Moines, Feb. Ia. - No further
effort is made to question John D.
or H.. H. Rogers by At
torney General Hadley of Missouri in
the present effort to show that the
Standard OIL company has violated the
antitrust laws of Missouri.
Such in substance is the informa-
ton given out here yesterday by At
torney General Lake. The reason as
signed for this decision is that in Had
ley's opinion neither Rockefeller nor
Rogers possesses any information as
to the details of the operations of the
WatersIPierce, Republic and Standard
Oil companies in Missouri While
they have no doubt any longer of their
ability to force Mr.. Rogers to answer
their questions, so far as he Is inform
ed, they do not believe anything can
be gained by pursuing him further.
Enough to VIM" Says HadIey.
We have reached the conclusion" :"
said Mr.. Hadley, that the former en-
ployes of the Standard Oil company,
such as we have examined here in Des
Moines, can give us more valuable in
formation than Rogers or Rockefeller.
we already possess enough and more
than enough testimony to convince any
court that our contention Is correct.
y AS to Mr.. Rockefeller, am utter
ly unable to say where he Is. Our ef-
forts to locate him have been baffled
at every turn. We would doubtless
have succeeded in getting service on
Mr.. Rockefeller in New York, when
we first went after him, had not the
methods in vogue in that state render
ed 1t possible for news Of our inten-
tions to reach Mr.. Rockefeller long be-
fore our process servers could find
him.,
Frank Northrup and F. e ELayman of
this city testified at the special hear
Ing regarding the Missouri case. Mr..
Hadley said their testimony practical
ly concluded his sgcase and that he was
confident Of winning.
