No t'Master Mind" Heads the Standard
OiI--TeIIs Where Rockefeller
Can BE Found.


New York, March 81. John d.
Archbold, vice president of the Stand
ard Oil company, was the principal
witness in the hearing conducted by
Attorney General Hadley of Missouri,
before United States Commissioner
Sanborn. In response to Hadley's df-
rect question:: "Who is the active head
Of the Standard Oil company?" Arch
bold replied that there was mo master
mind" in the Standard Oil, that it con-
sisted of IAN aggregation of individ-
uals," a i experts within several de-
partments.
Archbold also volunteered the state
ment that John d. Rockefeller had no
desire to evade any questions; that
Rockefeller knew nothing about the
matters concerned in the present suit,
but that if Hadley wished to go to
Lakewood and question him he would
find Rockefeller willing to answer any
questions. Hadley interrupted this
statement with the remark: 'There is
only one way to examine witnesses
here"
Wade Hampton, general auditor Of
the Standard Oil company, testified
that he had on various occasions sent
men from his office in New York to
st. Louis to audit the accounts of the
Waters-Pierce Oil company, and that
while so employed the men were on
the pay roll of the latter company. The
same course was pursued in auditing
the books of the Standard Oil company

MINERS WILL HAVE A RAISE
Nothing Else Will Satisfy Them or
Will Be Considered.
Lewis CIinches the Demand, and Says
the Miners Will Stand Pat
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Re.
tire to Think II
Over.

indianapolis, March 27.-The United
Mine Workers, through John Mitchell,
president; 7. l.. Lewis, vice president,
and Herman G. Perry, president OF the
Illinois miners, presented to the coal
operators in the executive session of
the joint scale committee of the CEN
trail competitive district their ultima
tum on the dispute over the wage
stated in the ultimatum, is for a re-
StOratiOn of the wage scale Of 1903,
which is an increase of 800 per cent
The operators were given to under
stand that the miners would not con-
slider any proposition that does not
concede the rate.
Operators Want TO Think 1t Over.
Upon the receipt Of the ultimatum
the operators secured an adjournment
of the committee until this morning,
when it is expected that a definite an
swer to the miners will be given. 1t
is anticipated that this reply will be a
refusal by the operators and the com
mittee will report a disagreement to
the Joint conference Of miners and OPP
orators. The fight in that case will be
continued on the floor Of the joint con-
vention. There is as little prospect for
an agreement being reached as there
has been at any time.
Nothing Less Than the 1908 Scale.
The morning session of the commit
tee was without result. After the noon
adjournment John Mitchell took the
floor and said he had been Informed
on reliable authority that there were
runiors that the operators believed that
if they would stand firmly by their
position and prolong the sessions of the
joint scale committee the miners would
agree to sign the present scale and re-
cede from their demand for an in
crease in wages. He said he wanted
to explain to the operators that there
would be under no circumstances an
agreement at less than the scale of
1903, unless after a disagreement the
operators could enforce less terms, and
he did not believe they could.

LEWIS PUTS 1T STRONGER
Says There Will BE No Breakdown by
the Miners At All.

the Miners At All.
T. l.. Lewis, vice president of the
United Mine Workers, followed Mitch
ell. He said he was surprised to learn
at the present stage Of the proceedings
that such rumOrS We're aflOat and con-
tinuing, said: Il want to say more
than President Mitchell has said. We
will be divided neither in this scale
conference, out of this scale confer
ence, in the convention, or anywhere
else, so far as | am concerned. If we
have got to such a point in these de-
alterations where it is a case of wait
to see who is going to be able to d.
vide the forces on either side then
believe we are considering a very dam
gerous proposition
Herman c. Perry, president OF the
Illinois miners, said he had heard II
rumOred that different interests had
been attempting to use their influences
to bring about strike, notably the
small operators and the coal dealers
who, he had been informed, were sup
porting lobby in the hope of intiu-
enciDg the operators to force a dis
agreement. He minated that other
interests We're using the same means
To this he added that there positively
would be no division of the Illinois
miners, and no mine would be allowed
to run even with an advance in wages
unless all the union mines in Illinois
were given the same advance. There
was a short discussion, conducted in a
friendly vein, and a motion to adjourn
the committee until this morning was
unanimously adopted.
