they declare the development OF pipe
lines was in the face of violent hos
tiIity on the part of railroads which
naturally were pppcGed to the lntroduc-
tion of such means of transportation.
AS to the favoritism alleged to have
been shown the Standard OIL by the
ra lroads, the statement considers the
situation in New England, and says
| the company uses its own pipe lines
to the ccast and water transportation
thence to New England. Competitors
use the same water transportation, the
Standard OILS advantage being in its
own line

statement is correct
The statement considers at consider

ed and is steadily growing
The grief which the president ex-
presses in his message over the inabil-
Iity of railroads to combine and protect
Themselves from the shippers will
arouse amusement, says the state
ment. THE president says respecting
this investigation that the facts are
not in dispute, only differences are
disputed. The Standard Oil company
furnis he'd the facts, and a man with a
muck rate dug out such as under his
manipulation he felt would prove dam
aging.
"The Standard Oil company has been
investigated over and over again al
the instIgation of it's rivals, and 1t al
ways welcomes such investigation
when conducted In good faith and fair
ly. We are engeged in a large and
honorable business. We are conduct

New York. May AIN reply to the
presidents message and the Garfield
report, FL H. Rogers and John d.
Archbold OF the Standard Oil company
tonight made a statement to the Asso-
ciated Press In which they say In
part.
"In the presidents effort to secure a
bin enlarging the powers of the inter
state commerce commission and just
and equable railway rate, we have
precisely the same interest that any
good citizen has, no more, and no less.
Regarding his criticism upon the man
agement of railways or his structures
upon any acts of the interstate com
merce commission, we have neither
responsibility nor concern. When,
however, he or Commissioner Garfield
attacks the Standard Oil company and
uses it's methods Of doing business as
an object iescon for the purpose of
promoting his views, we protest. II
may be frankly stated at the outset
that the Stan'ard Oil company has at
all times, within the limits of fairness
and with due regard for law, sought
to secure the most advantageous
freight rates and routes possible.
There will be no denial of this fact
on our part The question is whether
we have at any point violated the
law or the proprietors."
They then tell of the origin of the
present inquiry and declare they vel
come the investigation and offered Gar
field free access to the books and the
full opportunity to ascertain their bust
ness methods They also say they re-
peatedly urged Garfield to make public
the conditions in Kansas, but he re-
fused assuring them his report would
present them fairly.
"One does not care to handy words
with the president of the United
States, they say, 1T Is not easy to diff
ferentiate between Roosevelt the pres
ident. and Roosevelt, the individual.
He has given of his advice most gener-
ously, ON every subject. from the s'ze
of our families to the mistakes of
federal judges and some error Is in
evitable now and then to the most con
servative man under such circum
stances.
"We say fatty that any assertion
that the Standard Oil company has
been or is now knowingly engaged In
practices which are unlawful is alike
untruthful and unjust"
The statement then discusses Gar
fields report. As to his statement thai
the development of pipe lines was the
result of agreement with railroads
