BIG JIM WORSE
IHfJBE RUEF
This the Theory of Ach,
, With Cross-Examination
Based Thereon.
fCnltcd Yraea Leued Wtre.
San Francisco, Nov. 24. With his
'cross-examination of "Big Jim" Galla
gher, the self-styled go-between of
Abraham Ruef and the Doodling board
of aupervisors, limited by Judge Lw
lr, Attorney Henry Ach endeavored to
day to show that Gallagher and not
Ruef was the corrupter of the supervis
orial morals.
Ach dwelt upon Gallagher's testimony
ei the first trial of Tlrey U Ford, chief
counsel of the United Railroads, to show
that Gallagher went to former Super
visor Furey before he was Inducted Into
office as a supervisor and asked Furey
to "stand in!" He also called up similar
testimony given by Gallagher to this
effect at the recent preliminary hearing
In the police court. Finally Ach com
pelled Gallagher to admit that although
he was a representative of Ruef to the
aupervlstors the board never made him
its confidential agent to Ruef.
Ach endeavored to bring in bits of
Gallagher's testimony before the grand
jury in an effort to show that Galla-
fher frequently reversed his statement,
his was not allowed by the court.
Ach exhaustively questioned Galla
gher regarding alleged conferences with
Attorney Ford regarding the framing
of a trolley ordinance, In an endeavor
to further tangle up the testimony of
the witness.

100 Per Cent Assesment on
Stock of Defunct La
Grande Bank.
La Grande, Or., Nov. 24. The share
holders of the defunct Farmers & Trad
ers National bank must stand an assess
ment of 100 per cent on their stock, ac
cording to an official notice from the
comptroller of the currency. In other
words, the shareholders must pay dol
lar for dollar of the amount of stock
which they held In the suspended insti
tution. The capital stock of the bank was
160,000, and as there are less than 25
shareholders, the average assessment
will be heavy. J. W. Scrlber was one
of the heaviest stockholders, and as he
is bankrupt, it is only natural to sup
pose that full payment will not be ..km

from Scrlber, it is said that every share
holder is - well capable of meeting the
assessment, though some of the smaller
ones will feel the loss of the money..
The announcement la expected to stir
up a considerable flurry, but it is only
what bas been 'expected all the time.
The payments on this assessment
must be met December 19.

, New Tork, Nov. 24. John D. Rocke
feller faced Frank B. Kellogg today for
his final grilling In the government
ult to dissolve the Standard Oil com
panay of New Jersey. The oil king
was primed for the closing ordeal and
seemed well satisfied with his perform
ance on the stand up to date.
It is expected that John D, Archbold
vice-president and active head of the
Standard Oil company, will be the5 next
witness. He will probably take up the
story where John D. left off. at th-
status of development in 1882, and
carry the narrative to the present time,
Kellogg will use the previous testi
mony of Archbold before the congres
sional committee and other bodies . :n
an effort to confuse him. as it al
ready has been shown that the memories
of Rockefeller and Archbold disagree
In regard to several ImDortant points.
Kellogg today took up the Investiga
tion of the system of stock distribu
tion and began bv asking Rockefeller
a number of Questions along that line
Rockefeller admitted that he did not
own all nf the 442.797 shares of Stan
dard stock accredited to "him on the
records of the corporation in 1899. He
could not remember just how much ho
aid own, ne saia.

eratlon of the policy of the Standard In
regulating tne proaucuon or cornpeuiur,
Bchurmer and Teagle. the operators of
a refinery in Cleveland. Replying to a
question, however, he said he remem
bered no contract made with them In
187a in which thev ssrreed not to handle
more than 85,000 barrels of crude oil
yearly and . that they would arrange
this amount so that about 42,000 would
be Handled each six months.
In return for the agreement, as ex
plained by Kellogg, the Schofleld, Schur-
mer & Teagle Iirm was guaranteed bji
Increase in receipts of 175,000 yearly,
and the Standard of Ohio was to re
ceive the excessof profits up to $0,000.
The additional profits were to be di
vided between Schofleld, Schurmer &
Teagle and the Standard.
Rockefeller said such a contract might
have been made, but he did not recall
It. .
Kellogg called the. attention of the
witness to an Injunction suit asking
Schofleld to comply with the conditions
of the contract. A3
"1 think we had some litigation with
them, but I can't recall the conditions,"
said Rockefeller.
When asked If he signed an affidavit
setting forth the conditions of the con
tract, he said: '
"If such an affidavit was made, I, as
the president of the Standard Oil com
pany, Vould be the person to sign It."
Theif -Rockefeller again took refuge
behind his failing memory and answered
that he could not recall a similar re
strictive contract with the Pioneer Oil
company, operating a refinery at Cleve-
laHesaid he did not recall Other affi
davits regarding the Schofleld contract.

Kellogg questioned the oil king about
tbe connection of the Standard officials
with railroads carrying Standard prod
ucts. The witness said he could speak
only for himself, but admitted that he
was a stockholder and bondholder In a
number of railroads.

Cooper No Longer Talks, As He Says
Others Now Do It For Him
The Immense sale of Cooper's medi
cine in New York continues to increase.
On Monday Cooper's headquarters was
packed with people all day watting to
talk with the young man or his assist
ants.
In speaking of his success in New
Tork, Cooper said: "It is this way
everywhere I go. As I have said before,
the stomach causes most of the ill
health of this generation. I am suc
cessful because Cooper's New Discovery
puts the digestive apparatus in shape,
then nature does the rest.
"I no longer have to make any claims
for the medicine. I let others do the

on the subject Nine out of 10 here to
day have been sent by friends who are
taking the medicine. , More people .are
now calling to thank me for the relief

The following la a sample of what

and would not get a wink of sleep.
"When I first heard of Cooper being
in New -York, I said, 'here's another
westerner who has come to get eastern
money; well, ho gets none of mine.'
After a while I heard of many people
who were being benefited, and I figured
that at. least I could do no harm to try
it, eo one day about a month ago I
stumbled in to see him, so weak I could
hardly stand up. I took the treatment
home and at the end of the first week
began to see some results. I continued,
and at the end of the third week I felt
actually like a dead man brought back

Before taking up the railroad phase
of the case Kellogg asked If the Stand

fineries in New York. Pennsylvania and

state of affairs was not likely.
He said his memory was not trust

Tangles John 9. and Archbold.
Kellogg asked Rockefeller In the late
afternoon yesterday whether the Acme
Oil oompatw was organized by the
Standard Oil interests. He admitted
that it was. Kellogg then road from
the testimony of John V. Archbold be
f orethe congressional eomrriittce in
which he said the Acme was not organ
ised bv or connected with the Standard.
In spite of objections, Rockefeller was
forced to answer:
"I suppose Mr. Archbold's testimony
was correct. While mv mind is not
perfectly clear on the matter I should
sav the same people owned stock In
both companies, but I don't remember
that the Standard controlled the Acme
then."
Sow Purchases Were Blade.
Kellogg then Interrogated Rockefel
ler concerning the methods of the ap
propriation of stock certificates of the
Standard among fourteen subsidiary
companies. The witness unwilingly ad
mitted that the stock ef , the" acquired
companies was exchanged for equal val
ues of Standard Oil stock.
Kellogg asked where the stock books
were, and Rockefeller said he had never
been custodian of them.
- Then the prosecutor asked If Rocke

stock books and produce them In court.
