STUART, Iowa, March 13-Relatives
of Ernest Montgomery, who grew to
manhood on a farm near here, have
been advised that he has sold his
Death Valley mine, the Montgomery
Shoshone, for $6,OOO,OOO Indirectly
Montgomery owed his fortune to
calamty-the drowning of his father
in Middle river twenty years ago.
The young man was compelled to
strike out for himself. Though pen
niless he determined to make for the
gold fields, and spent five years in
Idaho prospecting, during which time
he made barely enough to support
himself. Then he went down into the
mining regions of Nevada, Arizona and
New Mexico, and for twelve years
searched for mine to make him rich.
At last, two or three years ago, he
and his partner named Shoshone
struck gold in Death Valley and start
ed a small camp.
Montgomery bought his partners in
terest and now he retires from the
mining business with $6,0000O0 which
he received for his property.

CHICAGO, March 13.-Following the
supreme court decision of yesterday,
Chicago Traction stocks suffered
a tremendous slump today, the losses
on New York and Chicago exchanges
aggregating $1O,SOOOOO. This is on
stocks alone and takes no account of
bonds. Hundreds of small fortunes
have been wiped out. 1t is estimated
there are at least two hundred persons
whose entire fortunes were invested
in Union Traction stock and they are
left penniless
The Yerkes estate will also suffer
heavily, as it is understood that more
dated bonds, branch of the Union
Traction company and dependent en-
tirely upon it for success or failure.
Under a mistaken Interpretation Of
the decision yesterday hundreds of
people loaded up with stocks, only to
see their investments swept away this
morning when the exchanges opened
and the real meaning of the decision
was understood.
The City Railway fares somewhat
better than the Union Traction COM
pany, as it still possesses some eleven
year rights.
1t is estimated by local financiers
that the decision of the supreme court
has wiped out franchises belonging to
the Union Traction company valued at
anywhere from $60,00O,00O to $S5,OOO,O00.

STANDARD WILL NOT DIVULGE
Attorney General HadIey Advised That
Company Will Not Give Informal
tion Unless Compelled
By Associated Press.

by Associated
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, March 13.-The
Standard Oil company, through Alfred
D. Eddy of Chicago, its general western
attorney, has in effect notified Herbert
s. Hadley, attorney general of Missouri,
who was in Kansas City today, that it
will give him no more information in
his suit to oust the Standard and it's
allied companies from the state of
Missouri than it is compelled to make.
Mr.. Hadley said today:
"A week ago today when the testi-
mony of II. Clay Pierce was to have
been taken before Commissioner r. A.
Anthony in st. Louis, Mr.. Eddy, attor-
ney for the Standard Oil company,
stated to me there would be no further
resistance on the part of witnesses al
ready subpoenaed in New York in an
swering the question they had pre-
viously refused to answer. 1 then sug-
gested to Mr.. Eddy that if he would
produce H. M. and w. H. Tilford and
w. H. Banburne before Commissioner
Frederick Sanborn in New York, March
"a, l would not as a matter of
convenience, file an application in the
supreme court to bring them to Mis-
souri,
"Mr. Eddy promised to give answer
to this suggestion as soon as he could
has informed me he did not feel author
ized to make this arrangement. Con-
sequently if service on them is not Sc
cured at the time the taking of depo-
sltions is resumed in New York, 1 will
apply to the supreme court for an Or
der to compel their appearance in Mis-
souri,"
What about John D. Rockefeller"
Mr.. Hadley was asked. WAS there
any discussion pertaining to him?"
1.-THE question of subpoenaing John
D. Rockefeller did not enter into the
discussion with Mr.. Eddy. We have
been and are still endeavoring to Sc
cure service on him, but there are
other witnesses whose presence 1 am
more anxious to secure. They know
more about the facts in the case. What
1 have wanted is persons who could
give testimony. not those whose pres
ence would lend a sensational inter-
est to the litigation"

STATEHOOD FOR THESE
TERRITORIES IN DOUBT
OKLAHOMA AND INDIAN FEAR DE-
FEAT OF BILL
Indications Are That Measure viii Be
Referred to Committee on Terri
tories, Which May Prevent Its
Passage
By Associated Press


WASHINGTON, March 13. - There
are indications that the statehood bill
may be referred by Speaker Cannon
to the committee on territories. This
action. the friends of statehood for
Indian Territory and Oklahoma fear,
will entirely defeat the measure.
The committee can retain the bill
indefinitely and should it appear that
there were insurgents votes enough
to concur with the senate, the bill
would not, they say, be brought into
the house. Under the rules of the
house a senate amendment to a house
bill which changes the charge on the
treasury sends the bill to committee
automatically.
The amendment in question is one
granting lieu lands to the new state
for school purposes in case sections 13
and SO reserved in each township
proved to be mineral land.
On account of the reception here to-
morrow night to Governor Pennypacker
of Pennsylvania, the Republican state
hood caucus has been postponed until
Thursday afternoon at o'clock. The
call for the caucus will be issued today.

lawyers for the commission, j. T..
Marchand and Charles Mum, and the
lawyers for the independent oil pro-
ducers, Frank S. Monett, Clifford
Thorne and S. w. Brookhart, had been
trying hard to get from Mayer an ad-
mission that there was any connection
between the Standard Oil company, the
Union Tank Line company, the Repub-
lie Oil company, the WatersPierce Oil
company and other companies.
To all questions Mr.. Mayer answered
Il do not know although he had
been a manager of the Standard Oil
company for twenty-eight years.

Cockrell asked him: Tell this commits
sion, are the Republic Oil company and

II do not know, SIR
What is your best impression about
it?"
Il have none"
Don't you feel and know in your
heart that they are all part and parcel
of the same company"
81 do not know"
Don't you feel in your heart it is
so?"
II don't know, SIR
Then the veteran senator slapped
the desk with his fist and said, Sc
Verely:
II am tired and sick of this effort
made by Standard Oil people to conceal
this fact when every man, woman and
child knows it is so. Now everybody
wants the truth told here and why
don't you tell it? Every tub ought to
stand upon it's own bottom, and you
folks ought not to dodge this question
further
Several witnesses testified today to
discrimination by railroads against in
dependent producers.
The hearing will be concluded to-
morrow.
