 est Citizen When All Facts Are Known,
 NEW YORK, Aug. 12.--The World as Iserts thatiJohn D. Rockefellers father Is alive. It states that for eighteen months it has hunted the country for him in vain and concludes he is in hiding. When the article by Miss Ida Tarbell on John D.'s father appeared in McClures Magazine a year and a half ago, Frank Rockefeller, accord ing to the. World, told a World report CT that the story was an outrageous libel and that he wanted the papers ''to leave'his father alone"
 MT. Rockefeller was assured that if he would consent to reveal the where abouts of his father the story should be published in his own words.
 If consent to give the facts to the World for publication when the right time comes, will the World agree to publish nothing until that time?" he asked.
 The promise was given with an add ed provision that when the time should come to publish the facts the proof sheets of the article should be submitted to Mir. Rockefeller for final approval.
 These terms and conditions were re- ported to the World office that night and were at once ratified in letter to MT. Rockefeller.
 Now. the World alleges, Frank Rock efeller has broken the contract by de- nying the existence of it and by threatening if his interview was pub lished to brand 1t as a lie.' Accord ingly the World considers itself ab- solved from its promise to MT. Rock efeller and publishes an interview ob- tained from him in Cleveland, it claims. eighteen months ago. The in- terview follows;
 My father is alive and well,' said Mir. Rockefeller. He is dependent upon no man. He would scorn the proffer of financial aid from John D. and would not take it from me. He has means of his own, ample for all his needs. But there Is reason why I cannot at this. time tell you where he is. In a few weeks or months will be ready to tell story that will amaze and horrify the whole world.
 No one yet knows that am writ ing the story, the real history of John D.'s life. finished ii secretly. here in my office several months ago, but there were imperfections in the work and am doing 1t all over again. Rest assured that 1t will be right this time. When l make John p.'s true life his- i tory public and explain the facts about father, this country will be too warm for Its richest citizen.
 Go ask John D. where our father is; tell him that sent you and that dare him to answer But the time will soon come when I can safely speak. Then it will not De safe for John D. to: Appear upon the streets of any American city. He would be stoned by the people. Nothing but flight from the country to some foreign land will save his life when the whole monstrous truth is known. Strange talk for a brother isn't it?" asked Frank Rockefeller .pausihg. Terrible talk from one brother about another, but what I say is literally true. John D. is not a human being. He is a monster; merciless in his greed. pitt less in his cold. inhuman passions.
 "Behind his mask of piety and kind ness be laughs at all humanity. He is literally madman who believes that he is a god who cannot sin"
