REPUBLICS TO FIGHT

TRIAL AMERICAN REPUBLICS.
GUATEMALA IS TO TAKE The LEAD

Nicaragua Within
Few Days.

Mexico City-According to reports
received in government circles here,
wal involving four of the Central
American republics will begin with
gin with a very short time. Guatemala
is expected to open hostilities with an
attack on the armies of Nicaragua.
When the fighting becomes general
Salvador and Guatemala will be ar
rayed against Honduras and Nicara-
gau.
This is regarded as the first overt
act in the movement headed by Presi-
dent Cabrera of Guatemala to form
a federation Of Central American
states. This movement is backed by
President Escalon Of Salvador, and
Is said to have the moral support of
the United States government.
The plan contemplated includes the
elevation of Cabrera to the presidency
of the federation and originally in
cluded the retention of the presidents
of the other republics as governors of
the different states. 1t is now
thought that should the federation be
formed, the loss of prestige suffered

had to be done. Our largest COMPETE
tor was II. b. Payne. We got togeth-
err and brought other interests in oil
together. We put the business on a
solid formation. We never squeezed
out n single soul. We ooh them all

Only Confidence Necessary.
How mas the Standard Oil pros
pered? What has been the secret Of
the marvellous cohesive force Of the
company? Nothing but absolute con
fdence in each other. Nothing but
confidence in the men who directed
the policies of the company. 1t could
not have lasted had there been any Of
this browbeating and crushing.
"Since 1870 we have always pursued
the same policy. We have not dew
ated from it in one instance. We have
never b~rowbeaten or crushed anyone.
81 believ, they are beginning to see
now" he continued, that there Is
nothing wrong in us. A vast enter
prise has been built up by economy
and attention to detail. Systematiza-
ton has brought all out Of chaos"
Mr.. Rockefeller stated that he had
not been IN his office in New York in
ten years, yet he admitted he has kept
closely in touch with what was being
done, through his son and his personal
representatives. He was strong in his
praise of Mr.. Taft, who is a prospect

ing that he believed Mr.. Taft a con-

Referring to Mr.. Smith, the oil mag.

to appreciate the fact that Standard
Oil is not over-capitalized. Its assets
are many times greater than $780,

attitude of the administration. With
Indictments in the courts, following

by President Bonilla of Honduras and
President Zelaya of Nicaragua, will
result in their overthrow.
1t has been generally supposed that
the people of all four of the republics
are in favor of the establishing of the
federation. Should this be true, the
disloyalty of the armies of Nicaragua
and Honduras may greatly handicap
the presidents of those countries and
make the overthrow of the govern
ments an easy matter for the COM
bined opposing forces.
The struggle threatens to be the
fiercest the Central American states
have seen in years.
The immediate cause Of the strained
relations is an old boundary dispute
between Nicaragua and Guatemala.
Mutual charges are also made of the
harboring of political refugees.

ing interview on the present financial

Our farms produce more than So
800, 600, 900 per annum, and the pros.

is not much to that policy excepting
to make a good investment better.
"Why did you not answer the ques-
ton put to you by the interstate COM
merce commission? Will you answer
them when the proceedings brought
by the department of justice force you
to appear for the second time?"

the questions put to me dealt with

piled. Some of them I would not
answer any more than you would, If
asked from whom you bought your
~suspenders, or how much you paid
for your shirt. I could not, to be
specific, answer all the questions in
justice to my associates in the pur.
chase.
But now that The proceedings have
been started to get these replies, !
will probable not refuse again. In
quiries directed at me in connection
with the Chicago & Alton case will
perhaps result in the answers desired
by the interstate commerce commits
sion. 1t was a business principle in,

In closing the interview, Mr.. Harri
man declared that in the future the

JOACHIM, NOTED vIoLINIsT, DIES.
Author Of Famous Compositions
Passes Away In Berlin.

Berln--Joseph Joachim, the cele-
brated violinist and conductor, died
In this city of asthma. He was 76
years old. He was born at Kittsee,
near Presburg, Hungary, and began
to study the violin when he was s
years old.
Joseph Joachim made his first public
appearance in a concert at the age OF
z years. In 1868, after having gained
fame throughout all Europe, he came
to Berlin, making this his home,
Among his most famous compositions
Is the Hungarian Concerto in d minor.
Although born in the Jewish faith,
Joachim embraced Christianity several
years ago.

"The railways earn more than 81
900, 600, 900, and they are all in sue
cessful operation. The payrolls of our
factories and railways aggregate ap-
proximately $4,000, 00O, 900 and the
scale of wages has not been reduced.
Wealth Not Affected.
I'm other words, the real sources
of the pople's wealth have not yet
been affected and the ability of indus.
trial concerns to pay dividends is not
measured by the market price of their
stocks.
Logical reasons for serious condi.
tons are therefore wanting. Psyche.
logical reasons are never wanting.
"If l Judge correctly, the people
will have exactly what they expect. II
those who have money in the banks
withdraw it and lock it up; If the
banks refuse to grant accommoda-
tons, and If the consuming public de-
clines to place orders, then we viii,
very soo1 witness the effects.
Let those who think that times Of
disaster follow each other at regular
intervals bear in mind that this coun-
try has never yet experienced a period
of severe depression that was not
traceable to financial or economic ag..
tation or legislation, and usually to
both.
Overwhelming Odds.
"In 1893, the redemption Of green
backs in silver instead of gold was
openly advocated; the party in power
was under promise to remove the pro
tective tariff from our industries and
the free coinage of silver at the ratio
of 16 to l was championed by proml
| nent members of both parties. The
| country might have survived any one
of these sources of alarm, bat it could
not survive all three.
"At this time no one questions oul
financial system, and the tariff will
not be touched for at least eighteen
months.
Some checks in the speed at which
We are going is most desirable, am
the checking process probably has be
gun. 1t will now require a fair meas
ure of confidence and courage to pre-
vent undue retardment in our indus
tries. Capital can not be forced int
activity, hut 1t a be forced out o
activity. / have never seen the TIM
when universal sanity was es
sential to our well-being."

Former Congressman Warner
Says That Oil King Errs

"Mr. Rockefeller, by his implied
threats, has simply made it impossible
for the president to recede from the
position he has taken, even if in some
things he is wrong. Should the presi.
dent back down now the nomination of
Bryan would certainly follow and votes
in great numbers would go to him."
The report from Wisconsin that a
young man had known and talked with
John d. Rockefeller's father not long
ago at Freeport, ILL.,. is not credited
here. The report said the old man was
known as DOC" Livingston in Illinois
towns, and that he was a peddler and
horse trader. Frank Rockefeller, since
the publication of his attack on his
brother at Cleveland, is maintaining a
discreet silence on the subject.

ond, a threat to shut off the supply of
money, throttle business and bring on

be able to produce panicky conditions
for a time, but the economic conditions
of this country and the world are not
conducive to a general fall of prices,

The letter, which was produced with

Haywood's letter to Mrs. Orchard
bore date Of Nov. 1909, when Or
chard and simpkins were at Cald-
well and it made the statement that
the last the writer had heard of Or
chard he was in Alaska Aside from
the word of Orchard, Haywood's let
ter stands alone, and there is no.
thing to show that he was not him
self deceived or that he was only
helping Orchard in the act of de-
ceiving Mrs. Orchard. In Orchard S
letter runs the suggestion that the
federation officers are keeping Mrs.
Orchard supplied with funds but
this, too. rests on Orchards words.
Haywood, Pettibone and Orchard
are located together on two or three
different occasions in Denver be-

and Orchard lived at Petitioners
house during the month of August,

Orchard testified that Pettibone
one Of HayWood's co-defendants,
wrote the letter without making any
request. and legal aid was extended
to Orchard within two days after
his arrest, through Attorney Fred
Miller of Spokane.
Four letters were sent to Mrs. Or
chard, the second, at Cripple Creek,
three by Orchard and one by Hay
wood at various times, and it is
claimed that they not only show
evidence of plan to conceal Or

alibi for him.
