SKELETON LOOSE AGAIN

CLEVELAND, Aug. 20.--A bitter
feud, war to the knife between
John d. Rockefeller and his
youngest brother, Frank Rookie
Teller. with VIM. A. Rockefeller, the
middle. brother, in the background,
ann alongside Of him young John
d. and his 3 sisters, all Of whom
have married into wealthy families
such is the feud now raging be-
tween the famous Cleveland broth
ers, with the wealth of the richest
man in the world as the object of
attack.
The story came out through the
alleged statement of Frank Rookie
Teller a few days ago that John D..
Rockefeller is keeping his aged
father, VIM. A. Rockefeller ST. in
hiding. The reason was not clear,
but it was supposed to connect the
fact that the life of the elder Rock
efeller in and aronud Owego, N. ",
was not all that so pious man as
John D. would desire.
AS outlined by Ida Tarbell in her
famous history of Standard OIL, the
life of the elder Rockefeller was

other coal squeeze Is coming.
The coal barons of Pennsylvania,

will, on Sept. l, compel the public
to pay rs cents ton more for the
product of their mines.
The size of the ton is the same,
the quality the same, wages and ex-

vastly different.
Defying the power of the govern
ment to convict 1t of being a COM
bination In restraint Of trade, in
the face of pending suits in the fed

showed up the price of coal a good
notch, enough to net to itself a

1t was when the directors Of a

that they spied Ketchel. He was
practically an unknown, all his
fighting having been done in the

Thomas had signed up with the
Marysville people to box any per-
