New York, Nov. 16.-John d. Rookie
feller is expected to go on the witness
stand shortly in the hearing in the
government suit to dissolve the
Standard Oil company and tell the
story of that gigantic corporation. 1t
is said that Mr.. Rockefeller will be a
willing witness and that for some time
he has been desirous of clearing up
certain matters concerning the COM
pany.
For some time the announcement
that Mr.. Rockefeller would be sub
poenaed as a witness in the Standard
Oil case caused some confusion in
Wall street, it being assumed that he
was ordered subpoenaed to appear In
behalf of the government. Later. how.
ever, it was learned that the whole
movement was at the instance of the
Standard Oil company itself and that
he will appear as a witness for the
defense.
At the Office of the Standard Oil
company it was stated that the com
pany will subpoena Mr.. Rockefeller
John ID. Archbold, the vice president
of the Standard Oil company, and ],
A. Moffet, a director of the STANDARD
Oil company, as witnesses for the
company in the hearing now proceed
ing. 1t is expected that Mr.. Archbold
and Mr.. Moffet will follow Mr.. Rookie

Declares That II the People of the
State, 40 Represented by the Legis
lators, Desire His Services He Will
Respond to Their caIl-Depew's
Pointed Utterances on the Situa.
tion in New York.

POINTED Otterances on the Situa'
tion in New York.
Washington, Nov. 17.-Secretary
Root has made the following state
ment regarding the senatorial situa.
tion in New York:
II think the Republicans in New
York who have expressed a wish to
bring about my election as senator
are entitled to a definite statement Of
my position.
Il am not seeking the Office of SEN
ator. do not think that great Office
ought to be given to any one because
he wants it; but IL the legislature of
New York, representing the people of
the state, feel that can render useful
service to the state and the country
in the senate and call upon me to rem
der that service I shall respond to
their call and accept the Office"
When Senator Chauncey NJ. Depew
of New York left the White House he
made some pointed utterances on the
senatorial situation in his state. He
was asked If he had come to Wash
ington to see the men whom he had
recently said were electing the next
senator from New York in Washing
ton.
well, the man who thinks he is
electing the senator has gone to Hot
Springs" said Senator Depew, refer
ring to National Committeeman Will

There are three or four New York
men who spend much of their time
down here telling he president who
shall be appointed ambassadors

devoted to electing our senators.
Il desire to say that the next legis-
lature will choose senator. The 201
members who compose that body are

neither be driven, hoodwinked nor
bulldozed."

the Atlantic seaboard of the United
States. More than 200 associations
are banded together to promote the
movement.
The president of the Deeper Water
ways association is Congressman J..
Hampton Moore of Philadelphia, who
delivered the address welcoming the
delegates and outlining the objects of
the association. He predicted a sue
cessful outcome of the associations
work, declaring it to be one in which
the entire American people are vitality
interested.
Scope Of she Associations Work.
In speaking of the associations
work Mr. Moore said:
''If the opening of waterway from
the north side Of Cape Cod to Long
Island sound means the saving of a
single life employed in the shipping
trade why should we not strive for
the completion of it?
When We know as a matter of rec
ord that hundreds of human lives are
lost upon the shoals of Cape Cod and
that millions of dollars worth of val
liable property is wrecked because
there is no inside passage why should
we hesitate to put our engineers at
work and make short cut inland that
will provide a safe harbor for ship
ping and a haven for the men who
are engaged in that important occu-
patton?
If the deepening Of an inland chan
mel between the Delaware river and
the Chesapeake bay will give to Amer

stores in times of peace or in times
of war and will save an outside sail.
ing distance of hundreds of miles,
with all its perils. why should great
nation like this hesitate to provide
such deeper channel.
'lf, again, and | regard this as of
greater concern to the common peo-
pie, the deepening of such a water
way between any such ports along
the Atlantic coast or from any point
of production to any point of ship
ment will enable the farmers or the
manufacturers to do more business
than they hitherto have done or will
provide facilities that will attract
trade and encourage the development
of American shipping why should we
not provide such waterways and thus
strengthen the hands of the bread
winners OF our country?"
