A SHORT HEARING
Judge Lands Learned ALI BE Wished
of Standard Oil Officials In
Two Hours.
ROCKEFELLER KNEW LITTLE
From other Witnesses the Judge Go,
the Information He Needed-A
Conference Of Trust Officers
Mo Decision.

Chicago, July, S.-The inquiry by
Judge Lands Of the United States
district court into the financial con-
dition and resources Of the Standard
Oil company was begun and finished
Saturday inside of two hours. The
courts object was to utilize this in
formation in determining the amounts
Of fines to be imposed on the Stand
ard Oil company of Indiana for viola
lions of laws governing freight rat
ing, and rebating. The chief witness
was John d. Rockefeller president OF
the Standard OIL company of New
Jersey. Very little information Was
derived from him. He declared that
he had not been in active business for
IL years and said that he had not
been in the offices OF the Standard Oil
company for eight years. He de-
clared that the capital stock Of the
Standard Oil company Of New Jersey
was about 800, 100000 and that its
business was the refining of oil. He
said that he did not know that the
company had any other business and
that II the Standard Oil company OF
New Jersey was interested in the
ownership or operation of any re-
fineries outside of the state OF New
Jersey he knew nothing of it.
From other witnesses Judge Lands
derived the information that the
Standard Oil company of New Jersey
Is the owner of large proportion OF
the stock of the Standard Oil COM
pany of Indiana and that 1t also
owns a large share of the Unich
Tank line.
All the officials of the Standard Oil
company, with the exception of John
d. and william Rockefeller, who were
subpoenaed as witnesses in the case
before Judge Lands, will hold con-
ference Monday morning at 8 O'Clock
with the attorneys for the corpora
ton. Just what the object Of the
meeting is was not given out, but the
general belief is that the conference
was arranged to consider what &C
ton shall be taken by the attorneys
for the oil company when court opens
at 10 o'clock. At the conclusion OF
the taking of testimony Saturday and
after Judge Lands had notified all
the witnesses that they were dis
missed, he offered the attorneys fol
the company the opportunity to ex
plain to the court Monday that the
Standard Oil company of New Jersey
never violated a federal law The
representatives of the company will
have the opportunity to prove this
Monday If they care to accept it.
When asked Sunday night. what &C.
ton would be taken in the matter,
the counsel for the defendant company
declared that they did not know.

TELEGRAPH LINES SUED
New York Attorney General Alleges
Postal and Western Have
Formed Trust.
REFEREE TO TAKE EVIDENCE APPOINTED
Combination Has Already Increased
Prices of Messages 20 Per Cent,
II is Characterization is Brought
by State Under Antitrust Law
of 1899.

New York, July 9.-Acting on a pc
tition filed by Attorney General VII
liam S. Jackson, Justice NJ. ". Plat
eek, in the supreme court Monday APP
pointed r. Burnham Moffatt, an at
torney, to take evidence based on the
attorney generals allegations that
the Postal Telegraph and Cable
company and the Western Union Tel
egraph company have formed an il
legal combination to increase rates
in New York and other states Mr..
Moffatt announced Monday night that
the first hearing in the matter will
be held a his office on Wall street
July 16.
The action of the attorney general
Is under state antitrust law of
1899. He alleges that the combina-
tion he seeks to break was made in
January last, and that as result the
tolls on messages between New York
and points in this state were raised
about five cents per message of ten
words, also that the effect of the al
legged combination has been to in
crease the rates on messages between
this city and other cities throughout
the country in many instances 20 pc,
cent over the rates previously exist
ing.
The attorney general charges also
that the two companies have agreed
to establish at various places in this
state common offices and to dividc
the profits and business received al
these offices. He declares that when
this was done in certain New York
hotels the telegraph companies agreed
to divide the gross proceeds Of the
business equally.
