NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-Two prominent

for uneasiness
Sir William Van Horne, chairman OF

prevails throughout North America.
Business will go ahead, Wall street not

"Of course 1t is easy to predict any

of credit or because of the active con-
ditions, the great activity in trade. The
present tightness is caused by the latter

at is generally believed in the wes'
that the worst has been passed for this
season. An all important consideration
however is the crops. A few weeks more
of favorable weather and bumper corn
crop will be assured. The yield of other
cereals has been fair. Ample money to
move the corn crop seemsS to be forth
coming. Therefore, 1t may well be said
that there will be nothing like panic

BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 17.-Delving into
the financial workings of the Stand
ard Oil company of New Jersey, the new
holding company of all the subsidiary
organizations Of the so-called oil trust.
Frank B. Kellogg, conducting the fed
eral suit for the dissolution of the COM
pany. brought to public view today for
the first time the enormous profits made
by the company. In eight years, from
1899 to 1906 inclusive, the Standard Oil .
company by statement spread upon
records today was shown to have earned
profits of s49O,3l5934. or at the rate of
more than SCI 100000 year.
1t distributed to it's shareholders in the
same period SOS,359543. While the COM
pany was earning these vast sums, the
statements show that the assets of the
company grew from $780, 900, 900 to S31,-
534,531. The capital stock is s9S, 1928, 1892.
Financiers and those seeking knowledge
of the exact profits of Standard Oil have
striven vainly to obtain the figures
which Mr.. Kellogg succeeded today in
placing upon record of the court.
The hearing today brought out much
information which Mr.. Kellogg obtained
from the Standard Oil company.
Controls Seventy Companies
MI. hcilO6S oDtdlueQ d Stdtti1tIlt SlOW-
ing that the Standard Oil copany of New
Jersey controlled by stock ownership
over seventy companies engaged in the
refining and the transportation by pipe
line of oil on September IA, 1907.
The Standard Oil company has always
carefully guarded the list of it's subsidi-
airy companies and the amount Of its
shareholding. The list showed that the
Standard Oil company of New Jersey
owned S9990O0 of the total capital stock
of $100O,000 of the Standard Oil company
of Indiana, which was recently fined $780,
900 for rebating.
Mr.. Kellogg's efforts at today's hear
ing to obtain information of the rec
ords of the liquidating trustees who
had charge of the liquidation of the
Standard Oil trust and the changing of
the liquidation trust certificates for
the shares of the Standard Oil company
of New Jersey were not recorded.
Charles M. Pratt, secretary of the
Standard Oil company, who testified
that he had been liquidating trustee,
| said he did not know the whereabouts
| of the records and could recall little
regarding the liquidation of the Stand
ard Oil trust. Clarence Fay, assistant
| comptroller of the Standard Oil COM
tpany, the final witness, was also rn-
able to give the government inquisitor
| the information he desired, which
| caused Mr.. Kellogg to remark Just De-
fore the hearing closed that he thought
it strange that no one in the Standard
Oil company seemed to know where the
records of the liquidating trustees
could be found.
Astounding Figures
The following is the list of capital
stock, etc., of the Standard Oil COM
pany and securities of other companies
held by the Standard Oil company,
produced by MIR Kellogg, the lists
being furnished by officials of the COM
pany in response to subpoenas:
