YOUNG ROCKEFELLER

"A mass of correspondence will prove

former hearing.

"In one of the letters, written to
Rockefeller, by L. NJ Bower, chairman
of the Executive Committee of the Col

made, we usually control the lead in

"Mr. Rockefeller on the stand said his
company could not control the Colorado

ITALY CLOSES SOURCES
OF OFFICIAL NEWS
Admit Important Negotiations
Are Going On, But Refuse to
Give Out Statements.

ROME, April -.
Foreign Minister Sonnino today ordered
the Press Information Bureau of the For
eign Office closed "for the time being"
1t probably will not reopen.
Officials of the foreign office consider
most offensive the reports that Italy's in
telvcntion in the war is only matter of
concessions refused or granted While
they admit that negotiations with Aus
tria are going on, they maintain that
Italy will fight her own war regardless
OF the interests of others
Reports in Paris and London that Italy
is negotiating with Powers of the Triple
Entente are declared here to be baseless
Surprising developments are expected.
Tommaso Tittoni the Italian Ambassa-
dor to France, held another extended con-
ference with the King and the Premier
that he would return to Paris tomorrow
The Foreign Office refuses to comment on
his visit or to say whether he carries with
him any documents for the French Gov
ernment.
The only official admission is that Italy
has been in conference with both the
Triple Entente and Germany and .lustr y
in an effort to determine just what her
future prospects are. The Government
has decided on the territorial expansion
necessary for a Greater Italy and will
take such steps as are necessary 10 carry
out that expansion whether that means
participation in the war or not.

Twice attacked within SO hours by
French aerial squadrons the Zeppelin

Ings there are reported today to be in
flames. a dispatch from Bregenz states
that damage amounting to fully $i,OO0OO0
has been suffered by the plant which has
been working day and night to turn out
airships for grand attack on England.
Five airships are said to have been de-
stroyed or set on fire by bombs thrown
by the French avlators, who made their
first attack Tuesday and their second
Wednesday afternoon, They succeeded
in flying directly over the plant though
under heavy fire from anti-aircraft guns
mounted at several places in Friedrich
shafen
The French aviators on their return
flight to Belfort circed over Metz, the
great German fortress in Lorraine; Halt
ingen and Lorach, dropping bombs and
steel arrows. At Haltingen they wrecked
the railway station and damaged cars
and engines. Several buildings at Lor-
rach were set on fire.
BERLIN, April %.
The French air raid on Friedrichshaven
resulted in no great damage being done,
according to the official report. SIX
bombs were dropped by the single raider
but the result was the woundng of only
enc man. As the raider flew away his
machine faltered, and it is believed he
had been hit by the fire of the high
angle guns.
