ROCKEFELLER DOES
No WORRYING.

CLEVELAND. July 29.-Neither the
proceedings of the Government nor
those of the State authorities against
the Standard Oil Company are worrying
John D. Rockefeller in the slightest.
This was the emphatic statement made
today by DIR, III. F. Biggar, physician
to and travelling companion of Rookie
feller. DR. Biggar left Rockefeller in
New York on Saturday after a six
weeks sojourn with his party IN
Northern France. He reached Clevc-
land today. When he left New York
the immediate plans of the Roekefellers
had not been settled.
Mr. Rockefeller and wife will be
at Forest Hill this week l am certain, .
said DIR. Biggar. They may come to-
morrow. and it may be Wednesday. II
1t has been reported that Mr.. Rookie
feller is disturbed over proceedings
against the Standard Oil Company and
the bringing in of his name in this con-
nection quite the contrary is true Mr..
Rockefeller has been having = few
weeks recreation and rest. He has not
been thinking about Standard Oil Com
pany affairs, And why should he. since
he has not been actively connected with
the business of the company for twelve
years?"
Asked If Rockefeller believed that
because he had been out of the active
life of the great corporation for years
this fact would render him immune
from any possible legal attack. DR.
Biggar replied:
THAT is matter l know nothing
about. Mr.. Rockefeller has never
talked on the subject so far as know
According to DR.. Biggar Rockefeller
was never in better health than at the
present time.
