DISASTER COMING
The OIL King in an Interview PrOpheses Great DECLINE
in Business and Lays the Blame for it all at the
Door of President Roosevelt

New York, Aug. i.-The New York
Word publishes an interview with
John u. Rockefeller, sent over the
long distance telephone from Cleve-
land by a staff correspondent. The in
Iteryiew, copyrighted by the Press
Publishing CO., follows:
John p. Rockefeller's answer to
President ROosevelt's antitrust liti-
cation campaign Is prophecy of
nnacial disaster that will sweep tEe
country from end to end
Mr.. Rockefeller had just finished
his game of golf Apparently he had
thought over very carefully every
thing he sand. He stood beneath the
shade of big beech tree. At no
time In his interview did he use the
name Of President Roosevelt He al
ways referred to him as "the admin
istration.
What, in your opinion, will be the
effect upon the country of the poll
icy Of the president toward great
business combinations?" Mr.. Rookie
llellef was asked
THE policy Of the present admin
Iistration," Mr. Rockefeller said earn
Iestly and deliberately, toward great
business combinations or all kinds,
can have only one result. 1t means
disaster to the country, financial de-
Ipression and financial chaos.
THE world already has fair dose
Iof this since the extreme penalty inn
posed on one corporation with a linz
ited number of shareholders, has
caused a loss of confidence, reflected
In falling stock market, tightening
Iof money aud a fear of the future.
IThe newspapers are full of this slump
land reflect the feeling of unrest. They
lascribe II 10 but one thing.
What will be the effect when SINH
Ian action is taken against corpora
tions with myriads of stockholders
scattered throughout the country, the
investors, the widows the orphans? Z?
There can be but one answer. The
present situation will be intensified
many fold. 1t does not require an
IeXpert to reason this out The most
superficial thinker can do it.
II will go further and say today
that because of the administration
with its reports every five minutes
OF new actions and of heavy fines,
the country Is already beginning to
drift otward the rocks of financial de-
preston.

]. ]. Hill is Believed to Have
Lost Control of the
Northern Pacific

st. Paul Mimi, Aug. IA. -
The controls which j. Y. Hill and
Great Northern stockholders have
held over the Northern Pacific
railway for some years has been
lost, according to current railroad
gossip. While it has been reported
for several weeks that the con
trol of the road has been lost at
first little credence was given TO
the gossip.
The reports have been so persis-
tent and so convincing, however
that they are now believed by nearly
all he railroad men in the city.
Mr.. Hill and his friends first be-
gan 10 lose control when the great
shrinkage in market values began
about u year ago. Great Northern
was then selling beyond the 300
mark and Northern Pacific near it.
In few weeks they siagged, and
now both stocks are quoted around
120. II is said Mr.. Hill borrowed
much money on his stocks and in
that way kept his controlling inter
ests. When the market values sag
ged so heavily however, it was nee
essary TO cGvtr and great amodnt
of money was used in paying collat-
eral on loans. Finally the strain
upon his resources, IL is said, came
TO the breaking point. and large
amount of stock was subscribed.
j. Pierpont Morgan, who sided
with Mr.. Hill in all his deals, is
also reported TO have lost very
heavily in the shrinkage and TO have
been forced 10 drop much of the
stock.
