reporter or officer.
"You should not hav been admitted.
She declared.
Miss Harrison has not been in the
employ of the Standard Oil Company

salary as "oracle'' for Rogers was esti-
mated at 10000 a year. From this
amount and through successful stock
deals, she is said to have accumulated
a fortune of $1,000,000 or more.
It was this woman, with the best un-
derstanding of 'fnside AFFAIRS" who sat
as sort Of guard to Rogers. She was
nearly as inaccessible as the great oil
man. but II visitor did get as
