Chicago. ILL.,, Sept. 19.-In face of the
assertion of Hearst at st. Louis, last
night, that an affidavit signed by F. S.
Monett, former attorney general of
Ohio, identifying Governor C. N. Has
kell of Oklahoma as having been a
party to the Standard Oil alleged e
tiations, Haskell today declared the
statements absolutely false.
False Assertions.
1.-THE assertions that | had anything
TO do with the Standard are absolutely
false" said Haskell. ION the day the
afidayits were said to have been
signed, SEPTEMBER IL, 1908, Monet was
in Oklahoma City, and on that day he
made a speech in which he %exonerated
me from all connections with the
Standard Oil matter.
Unbelievable Position.
1T is unbelievable that any man
would make such a speech and on the
same day sign an affidavit stating a
contrary thing. There is no truth in
the charges"
Hearst's Charge.
Hearst alleged that Haskell had been
in the employment of the Standard Oil.

MISSOURI SUFFERS
FROM LACK OF RAIN.

Hon. John H. Symons returned last
night from Missouri, having visited DIT
Springfield, Salem and Rolla, where
ne took some dispositions il cases in
which he is interested. Mr.. Symcns
says there is great need of rain in that
section of the state, the corn being
parched and threatened and many Of
the cisterns, upon which the iuhabi'
tants depend for water, being dry.
The fruit crop was injured by the
frosts, and the land Of the big red
APPLE Rolla and Springfield being in
the very heart of it, will produce a
greatly decreased crop this year. Mr..
Symons say he longed most for the
cool breezes Of the day and the cool
air Of the night. When he could get
a sheet to sleep under he suffered less
than when he had only wooden blank
