ROCKEFELLER Is
NOT ALARMED

Cleveland. O., November s0.-without
guard, John D. Rockefeller and his party
drove from his Forest Hill home to the
railway station this afternoon and took
train for New York.
Following the story of the plot to
sassinate the president OF the Standard
Oil company, told TO the police today by
Sawyer Smith of Minerva. O., the Cleve-
land police stood ready to furnish an es-
cort if demanded by Rockefeller. Fol-
lowing his usual custom IN Cleveland,
however Mr.. Rockefeller alighted at the
railway station. mingled with the crowd
that had gathered and appeared devoid OF
anxiety over his safety. The only I'M
usual move he made was to direct his
chauffeur to take a circuttous route to
the station, approaching it from the side
opposite that on which his home is To-
Gated.
The police chiefs in Cleveland and East
Cleveland are endeavoring to trace the
alleged plotters, whose descriptions were
given by the Minerva man. The Rookie
Teller home was under guard all Monday
night, but today. under the direction Of
Rockefeller, the guard was withdrawn.
The story told by Smith in brief is
that while in Alliance Sunday night he
heard two discussing a plan TO kill the
oil magnate.
I'VE might as we'll get our money for
killing old John D., one OF them said, as
cording TO Smith, for we will get what
is coming to us whether we kill or kid
nap him. Bill and the other fellow will
have plenty Of money and are willing to
pay well for putting him out of the way"
Smith reported the matter to the Can
ton chief of police, and on his recommen-
dalton called on Chief Stamberger of East
Cleveland, with whom he went to see

groups of both the ants and the amenders
have been congregated ON the streets all

prising result.
The biggest surprise In the entire coun-

of the fact that their city slate was en-
tirely cleaned up by o'clock. 1t being
reported that this is the only time slate
was ever completely exhausted in any
