Washington, June 2S.-Attorney General
Moody, Assistant Attorney General Purdy and
Charles B. Morrison and Frank NJ Kellogg the
special counsel employed by the Department of
Justice to investigate the advisability OF insti-
tuting criminal proceedings against the Standard
OIL Company for violating the federal Antitrust
law. called at the White House this afternoon
and had long conference with President Roose-
Welt The ground thoroughly gone over and
a satisfactory understanding was reached. but
1t was said that matters have not Yet come TO
a point where any further announcement can be
made. The Attorney General in his statement
issued several days ago was careful TO say that
Messrs, Kellogg and Morrison were employed

against the Oil Trust. and did not, as some take
il for granted. announce that the Attorney Cen
eral had made UP his mind TO begin criminal
proceedings If after the special counsel have
collected and examined all the evidence that can
be gathered by the Department of Justice and
have given the Attorney General their advice,
Mr. Moody believes that criminal cases against
the Standard Oil men can be sustained. proceed
ings will be begun at once and pushed with all
the vigor at the adninisration's command II,
on the other hand, il is found that sufficient
proof OF wrongdoing is not available, the affair
will be held in abeyance until cases can be es-
ablished.
The district attorneys who were here to con-
fer with the Attorney General regarding the In
stitution Of proceedings against violarors OF the
Interstate Commerce law have gone nome with
a complete understanding of the departments s
orders Although no statement has been made,
or viii in all probability, be made, until IN

ear7e net Il is taken for granted that in every
case where an illegal concession was granted an
