20,000. He had very little to offer i'm
the way of security, the writer said,
but he pledged his word that if the loan
was made it should be returned with
interest.
The audacity of the request interest
ed the banks head, and he sent a trust
ed agent TO find out about the man
Frick. When the agent made his re-
port the bank decided to make the loan.
That $1,000 was the foundation of
the colossal fortune of Henry Clay

cipal with interest. but the business
which he subsequently gave the Mellon
bank vas worth II hundred times the

Many people look upon paint buying
as 81 lottery and so it is. the way they
do it. 1t is not necessarily so, how
yer Pure White Lead and linseed
oil are the essential elements Of good

nothing was ordered. Muir talked and
talked. md in between he would reach
ove and break off a piece of bread
from a French loaf on the table. This
he did a good many times. The story
reminded him of another, ii SO he
talked and ate bread, until his COM

Well. what shall order for you,

JOHN D. TO TESTIFY
VII BE UitneSs for Defence at
Hearing an This City.

John d. Rockefeller, president of the STANDARD
oil Company will testify witness in the
Standard oil hearing now being held in this
city. Mr. Rockefeller will probably be called to
the stand some day this week. He has already
been served with subpoena by one OF United
States Marshal Henkels deputies.
Mr.. Rockefeller has been summoned as wit
ness by and for the defence and not by the gov
ernment. Moritz RosenthaI senior counsel for
the Standard Oil Company in the present nti-
cation with the government. admitted yesterday
that the "oil king" had been summoned to take
the stand
I'VE have summoned Mr.. Rockefeller" said
Mr.. Rosenthal, 'and / presume he was formally
served to-day. AS to just when he will be called
l cannot say. as we have not yet determined
that point. but he will appear and testify some
day before the close of side of the case
There are several matters ALLEGED by the govern
ment that Mr.. Rockefeller alone clear up.
and it is concerning these matters that he is to
be called"
As the taking of testimony for the defence will
close on December /. Mr.. Rockefeller will have
to take the stand some time this month. The
lawyers in the case have an agreement to fur
nish to the other side the names of all witnesses
to be called so that preparations for cross-exam-
inatlon may be made.
The fact that Mr.. Rockefeller intends to take
the witness stand is said to explain his recent
visits TO the Standard Oil Companys offices. at
No 26 Broadway. For the last six years he has
rarely been seen at the company's offices. Be
ginning some weeks ago, however lie has made
half a dozen trips to the company's headquar-
ters.
1t was at first believed that Mr.. Rockefeuer's
presence at the companys offices had to do with
the rumored reorganization and recapltaiizatiOn
of the Standard Oil Company. director of the
company however. is authority for the state
ment that there will be capital changes until
the litigation at present pending against the
company is settled
Mr.. Rockefeller is probably more familiar with
the early history of the company which he
founded than are any Of the other officers or
directors, and his testimony will be of great in
terest William Rockefeller and John D. Arch
bold will also be called witnesses it is under

The Navor is a member of the monument commits
sion which until the nomination of Secretary Taft
as the Republican candidate for President con-
sisted of Mr.. Taft, Governor Hughes and Mayor
Mcclellan. 1t said at the City Han that
Mavor Mcclellan attended the Yale-Prnceton foot
ball game having arranged to go with party be-
fore he received Invitation to go TO the dedica-
ton There was a good deal OF speculation yes
terday about possible reasons for his absence, in
addition to the social engagement which took him
to the football game Friends OF the Mayor said
last night that since the signing of the mayoraty
recount bill Mayor Mcclellan had never willingly
attended n meeting or conference where he would
come into personal contact with Governor Hughes.
He is a great admrer of Mr.. Taft. having known
him in washington while a Congressman. Once or
twic the Mayor and the Governor have appeared
on the same platform within the last two years,
but on practically every occasion when the two
were scheduled to appear at meeting the Mayor
has either been absent or has been represented by
President MCGOWAN of the Board of Aldermen, as
