January 9.--In a reply to a telegram from Attorney General Hadley asking him to give any information in his possession regarding the relationship between the Standard Oil company of Indiana and two other oil-producing cor porations. Thomas w. Lawson of this city tonight sent a lengthy telegram to MT. Hadley. Mir Lawson informs the attorney general that he personally knew nothing of the relations between the Standard oil company of Indiana the Republic Oil company and the Waters Pierce oil company, and that while he was aware of certain actions of the Standard Oil monopoly" he could not fairly come within the wise restrictions of Mir. Hadley's telegram"
 While l have no personal knowledge of the three things of which your tele- gram treats" continued MT. Lawson, T have sufficient general knowledge of the subject matter of your investigation 10 make appear farcical to me, that you with the power of the great state of Missouri at your back, should want the testimony of another than the band of conspirators at 26 Broadway, and their hirelings, to prove any case in which the name Standard Oil' appears"

HardcastIe on Stand.

H. c. Hardcastle was recalled. He said that while in the employ of the Standard oil company he was transferred into the Anglo-Amercan oil company in England by direction of w. P. Cutler, then mana ger of the Albany office of the Standard oil company. When he went to Cleve- land for the Standard Oil company, he said Mr Terrell told him that the price paid for the business of Schofield Schur- mer & Teagle was $1,3OO,000 in cash and notes. That firm he said, had refinery at Cleveland, part of which was disman- tied as the Republic oil company took possession of the property.
 Frank Hagerman, counsel for the Stand ard oil company, took up the cross ex- animation. Witness said he came from England fourteen or fifteen years ago under the name of H. c. Houghton and located at Syracuse, N. Y He continued under that name for six or seven months, when he took teh name of Hardcastle, which was his right name. After a few months he came to New York as a bill clerk of the Standard oil company.
 The witness said that R. P. Tinsley was agent of the Standard Oil company of New Jersey. the Standard oil company of New York, the Standard Oil company of Ohio and the Standard Oil company of Indiana
 Counsel moved to exclude the witness evidence that MT. Tinsley was agent of the companies. It was overruled. To- Mr. Hadley he said that when he came to America he used the name Houghton be- cause he was running away from home and did not want hls parents to know where he was.
 Witness said the Troy oil works of Troy and Electric Light Oil company of Camden, N. l., were operating as inde- pendent companies of the Standard oil company. but in reality were controlled by it.
