time past. and it was in defiance of ply
sicans warnings that he had been carry
ing practically alone the entire burden of
the Standard Oil executive work.
His Friends Alarmed.
The seizure, coming so quickly after Mr.
Rogers return from a trip which he took
to Europe this summer for the sake of his
health, makes the illness appear serious
to his friends So serious was his condi-
ton after the stroke that it was found
necessary to administer oxygen to him.
His heart action was alarmingly weak
and his trip to Fair Haven was a period of
anxiety for his attendants.
Mr. Rogers was told by his physician a
year ago that it was vitality necessary for
him to cut down his business cares. He
was warned that he could not live two
years at his present pace. But he eas ID
up very little. For several years, ever
since the retirement of John D. Rockefeller,
William Rockefeller and Mr.. Rogers have
been in sole charge of the vast interests
of Standard Oil
Recently William Rockefeller was obliged
to take an extended vacation for his health
and the entire responsibility fell upon Mr..
Rogers. In addition came the Lawson at
tack. closely followed by the Missouri in
vestigation of Standard Oil affairs, in which
Mr.. Rogers was the star witness. Other
investigations have followed, making his
duties unusually arduous.
When Mr. Rogers started for Europe two
months ago 1T was said that the trip was
necessary for the health of Mrs Rogers,
but friends of the millionaire believed il
had been order ed by the physicians for Mr..
Rogers sake. He had been straining every
nerve to carry out his plans regarding the
Virginia railroad, his pet project, and the
effort had exhausted him.
Stricken at His Desk.
1t was while busy at his desk that Mr..
Rogers was stricken. physician was
quickly called and the oil man was assisted
to the street to an automobile, which car
red him to his yacht Kanawah, off East
31st street.
Upon the yacht he became very i'll and it
was necessary to administer oxygen during
the trip to Fairhaven, which was made in
record time, for the yacht is the fastest Of
the New York Yacht Clubs fleet.
Inquiry at Mr.. Rogers Office regarding his
condition met with non-comnlittal replies.
All that could be learned was that he had
been taken i'll and had gone to his home for
brief rest. Any idea that the illness was
serious was pooh -poohed. 1t was stated that
his son heard from him each day and that
Mr.. Rogers. ST., was completely recovered
and would soon be able to resume his
duties.
When definite statement as to the ma
ture of his attack was asked for 1t was
finally admitted that Mr.. Rogers had been
made III by the heat.

CLUBMAN ARRESTED.
Friends Declare It a Case Of Mistaken
Identity.

BAKERSFIELD, Cal, July 2e.-George
McKeowns, local manager of Fairbanks
Morse & Co.. society leader, clubman and
automobilist, was arrested last night on
advices received from Webster City, Iowa,
where man of the same name is wanted
on indictments charging embezzlement and
arson. McEeowns arrest caused con-
sternation among his friends, who declare
that the case Is one of mistaken identity
Mckeowns was placed in the county jail to
await requisition papers from Iowa.
According to information from Webster
City, a man representing himself to be
George Mckeowns, went to Webster City
in 1900 as manager of the Western Felt
Shoe Company. He had been foreman of a
similar establishment in New York and
drew much attention to his apparently sue
cessful management of the Webster City
concern. The stockholders and directors,
however. found fault with the manager s
use Of the company's funds in purchasing
goods in the east, and the manager was
asked to resign A week afterward the
factory building was destroyed by fire Nc
Mrs McKeowns away. An investigation
followed the disappearance of McKeowns
and he was indicted on several counts for
embezZlement and arson. 1t was charged
that an invoice of supplies purchased in
the east by Mckeowns showed that the
bills Of sale had been padded.
