Nj Harrison May Return.
Miss Katherine Harrison, who Is
being sought by agents of the Pujo
committee because of information
she is believed to have acquired
while confidential secretary to tho
late Henry H. Rogers, is In Mon
treai. She has written to friends In
New York that her enforced exile Is
irksome and that she may return
any day is there is the least chance
of eluding the investigators.
The first intimation that she
might be required as witness be-
! fore the committee came to her
shortly before Christmas. She kept
indoors after that, but or January
3 decided to give the sleuths the
slip. Leaving her home in New
York By back door, she passed
through the house of neighbor and
was taken to the Brand Central Sta
: tion In an automobile.
At the Brand Central Station Miss
Harrison took train for Boston,
where she remained only long
enough to make connections with a
train speeding northward.
1t is reported that when she left
Miss Harrison took with her certain
books and papers which the commit
tee expected William Rockefeller to
produce. Her presence before the
committee was suggested by Samuel
Untermyer, who believes she can
greatly illumine the Rogers-Rocke-
feller oil-copper-railroad transac-
tions. She is said to be worth $3,-
s 100000 one-third of which is Stand
ard OIL securities. Subpoena servers
are also seeking Miss Anne Watson,
a confidential employe of William
Rockefeller.
