POOR OLD ROCKEFELER BUSINESS MEHTOPROTEST
WORTH BUT $300,000,000
ARE OPPOSED TO MEASURE
If the Statement as to his Wealth by His Business Agent Is True the Head of Standard Is Indeed in Hard Lines.
Publishers' Press. New York, Feb. 22. The magnitude of John D. Rockefeller's fortune was developed in an Inquiry here.-In reply to a question, Frederick TV Gates, Mr. Rockefeller's business representative fiaid: "There have been a great many amusing misstatements on this sub
ject. Several years ago Senator Hoar, in the senate, credited Mr. Rockefeller with a fortune of $1,000,000,000. Quite recently a statement has been made and published widely throughout the country that his annual income exceeds $100,000,000. ; "Now, the facts are that Mr. Rockefeller has at various times himself authorized a statement that his fortune can: not exceed $250,000,000 to $300,000,000. Furthermore, his income, instead of being $100,000,000, or anything like it, can not, in his most prosperous year, have exceeded $15,000,000 to $20,000,000. "The public generally is under the impression that he owns a majority
of the Standard Oil stock. The facts are -that Mr. Rockefeller's holdings of Standard Oil stock are about 20 per cent."

Sandford has fought against saloons 'for years. Yesterday afternoon a search warrant was procured from Judge Piety, under the new "blind tiger" law, and deputy sheriffs raided the quart shop
of Henry McDonald and took twentyfive cases of beer. " No whiskey was found. A saloon license had been refused McDonald and after an appeal
to the pircuit court a change of venue
was taken, to the Vermillion court,
where Judge Rheuby decided against
him.
Warrant Issued for McDonald. ' Mr. Shickel said that neither he
nor his partner had been especially
active in opposition to the quart shop.
but that the whole community were
opposing it. The damage to the Shickel store building, which was one
story, will amount to several hund
red dollars, but Mr. Shickel will make no estimate to the damage to the stock.
McDonald ' went to Sandford about
two years ago from Fontanet, where he had been in the saloon business.
He is married and is thirty-two years old.

the raid yesterday was not sworn to by any, one of the residents of Sandford, but by Prosecutor Cooper. The prosecutor this morning also caused

strong, beginning, according to witnesses, with threats he made not only to destroy property, but to take life. A witness also says he saw McDonald running, to his house from the direction of the two stores a minute or two before the explosion. ; When Sheriff Horseley went to McDonald's house this morning two hours after the explosion, he found McDonald In bed, under the covers, but with his clothes on. McDonald was formerly a coal miner and knows how to use dynamite. The information on which the McDonald place was raided yesterday was furnished by Channing Ryan, who lives in Fayette township and who is a member of the present grand jury. The latter body has been excused for ten days, because a member has become seriously ill. McDonald a Desperate Man. It is asserted that McDonald is a recklessly desperate man. He laid himself liable to severe punishment by Judge Piety by taking some of the beer after the sheriff's deputies had piled the cases on the sWewalk. He
can be charged with theft of the beer or with contempt of court in violating the order of Judge Piety to search the premises and confiscate any liquor or beer found there. Even af
