July 17.-Ai a result of the conferences held here yesterday, by United SUtei District Attorney Henry L. Stiuson with Attorney-General Moody and former United Stte District Attorney Charles B. Morrison of Chicago, now special counsel to the government in the prosecution of the Standard Oil Company for rebating, it is understood, says a morning papers that an investi gation will soon be instituted here. The paper adds: The conferences are direct results of the hearing now going on be fore the grand jury at Cleveland.- Al though that hearing was again resumed yesterday after a recess of several days, it is known that the federal authorities haw practically given up hope of secur ing indictments against the Standard at Cleveland, it having been shown that the federal court there bad no jurisdic tion, the alleged violation of the Elkins law having taken place, if at all, not in Ohio, but in New York City. The arrangements made here went into effect not only at Cleveland but in other parts of the country. This led to the conference yesterday. The assertion that the rebating arrange ments charged up against the Standard by Commissioner Garfield were made here will be investigated. It is expected that this will develop into a regular grand jury Inquiry such as resulted in indictments in the cases of both the sugar and the tobacco trusts. It has been xpected. from the first at Washington that the Standard Oil inquiry would have to finish in Xew York. But as Commissioner Garfield's chief instanced of discrimination in freight rates were from Western New York, and the Middle West, grand jury investigations were begun at Cleveland and Jamestown. Mr. Morrison has been in general charge of the prosecutions. The investigation at Cleveland, where it was charged that the Standard had se cured extensive rebates from the Lake Shoreon oil shipments to southern ter rietoty, came to a sudden lull on July 11. The semi-official announcement was made that the government had given up all hopes of obtaining indictments in Cleveland against the officers of either corporation. United States District Attorney Sul livan of Cleveland went to Boston and there conferred with Mr. Moody on Friday. Yesterday the inquiry at Cleve land was started up again with the understood object of showing that the arrangements for the alleged rebates had not been made in Cleveland, but in New York. With that object the prin cipal witness called before the grand jury at Cleveland yesterday was F. H. Wackerman, the Cleveland agent of the Union Tank Line Company, a carrying branch of the Standard.

CLEVELAND, July 17.-The federal grand jury, which has been investigating the alleged violations of the interstate commerce and autl-rebate laws, adjourn ed this afternoon without bringing in- dirtinents. The investigations were di rected particularly towards'the Standard Oil Company, and the Lake Shore Rail road. Failure to return indictments it is oHlcially stated is due to the fact that the investigation developed the fact that the court is without jurisdiction over the alleged offenses upon which evidence was given and the evidence is to be trans ferred to federal officials at Chicago. where coxes will be prosecuted.
