SUMMARY OF THE TESTIMONY
States Main Witness Fails to Know an
Important Fact.


John O'Brien, superintendent of the
Buckeye Pipe Line company, and f.
Il. Curtain, superintendent of the Man
haitian Oil company, both took the ''im-
Dlunity bath before testifying in the
case. With the exception of the last
witness the evidence put in by the
state was from officers of the alleged
constituent companies of the Standard
including the Buckeye Pipe line, the
Manhattan Oil company, the Ohio Oil
company and the Solar Refining COM
pany. 1t was testified by officers Of
the Buckeye Pipe line and the Ohio Oil
company that the Standard Oil Com
pany of New Jersey owned practically
oil of the stock of these companies.
The last witness, Willis B. Ulsh, a
local grocer, was proceeding to tell the
jury that when he first went into bust
ness several years ago he purchased
oil from the National Refining COM
pany, a local independent concern, but
that two or three years ago he was Wis
tied by an agent of the Standard, since
which time he had bought oil of that
company. He had no means of know
ing that the supposed agent Of the
Standard was such agent.
Attorney Phelps stated that he
wished to show that this agent had
offered and paid secret rebate to the
witness since his visit, and that the
witness had bought all his oil of the
Standard since that time, but he said
the state could net prove that the
Standard had given the agent authori
4 ty to offer the rebate, and the evidence
/ was thereby cut short.
