She said that suit was brought against
the Standard Oil company Of Ohio to drive
them out of the territory or out Of the

In response 10 a request by Mr Hadley
for a statement of the history Of that liti-

The first witness today was Mrs. Ida NJ.
Butts OF Marietta, o. When the examina-
tion of Mrs. Butts was begun the type
writer began his work. but Frank Hager-
man, for the Standard Oil company, de-
manded that the operator repeat each ques-

Mr.. Hadley agreed to this.
Mrs Butts said she was a stepdaughter
of the late George Rice OF Marietta and
had been employed in his Office. Mr.. Rice
was an Independent oil operator and was
engaged in litigation with the Standard
oil company almost constantly for more
than twenty years up TO the time Of his
death. about a year ago.
When Mr. Hadey asked the witness IL
Rice was ever connected with the Standard
Oil company, counsel for all the oil COM
panies represented objected, but the wit
ness said ''If holding a certificate is a
membership. he was = member OF the
Standard Oil trust"
Were those certificates issued by the
Standard OIL trust?'
Yes"
Counsel also objected to this question and
answer.

TESTIMONY OF MRS. IDA NJ. BUTTS
once EmpIoye of Man Who Fought
Octopus for Twenty Years Tells
of Manipulation of
stocks.

NEW YORK. Jan. 6.-It developed from
the questions asked by Attorney General
Herbert S. Hadley of Missouri of Henry
H Rogers. vice president and director Of
the Standard Oil company OF New Jersey,
that one of Mr.. Hadley's chief purposes in
conducting an examination of officers of
that company in this city is TO find out
whether that company owns controlling
interest in the Standard oil company of
Indiana, the Waters-Pierce OIL company
Of Missouri and the Republic OIL company
This, Mr. Hadley said tonight, he regards
as a step in the direction of excluding the
three latter companies from doing business
in Missouri
To most OF the important questions asked
by Mr.. Hadley bearing directly on the
question of stock ownership Mr. RoG"
declined to give any answer "on the gd-
vice Of counsel" and Mr.. Hadley reques t"d
Commissioner Frederick II. Sanborn 70
certify the questions and Mr.. Rogers re-
fusal to the supreme court of this state for
a determination as to whether or not Mr..
Rogers must answer them or he sdjudged
in contempt.
Mr.. Rogers declined to reply to ques-
tions as to whether he controls any stock
in the Waters Pierce oil company. whether
NJ Van Buren, Of New York holds con-
trolling interest in that company for the
Standard oil company OF New Jersey.
whether the New Jersey company con-
trolls the Standard Oil company of Indiana
or the Waters Pierce company or whether
two-thirds Of the dividends Of the Waters
Pierce company are not paid to II. NJ. Til
ford. whom. Mr. Rogers said tonight, had
an office at 26 Broadway.
Omaha daily bee., 1906-01-07


The attorney tonight declared he would
take all these questions To the supreme
court Of New York TO secure order for
Mr. Rogers 10 show cause why he shall
not answer them.
Mr. Rogers did say that he never heard
OF an agreement between the Standard Oil
company OF Indiana and the Waters Pierce
company TO divide the !rade of Missouri
and he did not believe it was ever made
Mr. Hadley said afterward that he had an
Injunction against such division. but he
was unable in Missouri TO show uS tie Of
ficers of the companies that they were
owned by the same parties. This is what
he is aiming to show by the New York
hearing.
Mr.. Rogers today declined to answer the
question whether he had a transaction
with II. Clay Pierce in 1904 by which Mr..
Rogers secured all or part OF the Waters
Pierce oil companys stock for the Stand
ard oil company of New Jersey OF for the
Indiana company. Mr.. Rogers was stlll on
until Monday.
The installation OF a typewriting machine
and operator in the hearing room before
today's session opened by order of Mr..
Hadley. indicated an effort on his part to
save the commissioner from the necessity
OF writing down in longhand the words of
the questioner and witnesses, which was
insisted upon yesterday by counsel for the
Standard oil company.
