ROCKEFELLERS CENSURED FOR STRIKEJERROR Colorado Tragedies Blamed on Operators and Agents in Industrial Relations Committee Report. POINTS OUT INCIDENTS

I CHICAGO, Aug. 27. The Rocketellers are blamed (or the miner' strike : in Colorado In 1912 and 1914 and the ; disorder, murder and arson that ao- ' companled tbe disturbances, In a fortypace abstract made public today by i George P. West of the United States commission on Industrial relatives, of I bis report of tbe causes and effect of the mining trouble. I The responsibility for the strike is placed on the operators and Colorado Fuel and Iron company, immediately controlled by John D. Rockefeller and John D. Rockeferrer, Jr., is declared to have been the leader in formulating and carrying out strike policies. Endorse Violence. The Rockefellers are charge with the selection of incompetent and reactionary agents and with giving their heartfelt endorsement and support to these officials after they had taken action that precipitated the worst of the trouble. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Is charged with having ignored the will of the president of the United States and with having approved measures to coerce tbe state of Colarado. The abstract in part save:

"During all the seven tragic and bitter months that precede' Ludlow, Mr. Rockefeller wrote lett- sr letter in enthusiastic praise ol i . ..; whose acts during this period a.d precipttbated a reign of terror and bloodshed. It was only when the massacre of Lvldlow filled the press of the nation with editorial denunciation, when mourners In black silently paraded before the New York office, wbon cartoon In the conservative press plllored him and his father before an angry public, that at last complacency gave way to concern in bis letters and telegrams to Denver. Denounces Rockefeller. "Mr. Rockefeller's responsibility has a significance beyond even the sinister results of bis policy in Colorado. The perversion of and contempt for government, the disregard of public welfare and tbe defiance of public opinion during the Colorado strike must be considered as only one manifestation of the autocratic and antisocial spirit, a man whose enormouse wealth gives him Infinite opportunity to act In similar fashion in broader fields." Every Important statement of fact contained in the report, it Is said, is established by quotation from the correspondence or testimony of responsible officials of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company, or Mr. Rockefeller and members of his personal staff. Quotes Letters. Tbe report gives this quotation from

a letter from Mr. Rockefeller to Mr. Bowers: "You are fighting a good fight which Is . not only in the interest of your own company, but of the other companies of Colorado and of business interests of the entire country." To which Mr. Bowers is said to have replied in letter after letter, picturing the growth of trade unionism as a menace. Mr. Bowers is unsparing in criticism of a president who would tolerate a former official of a labor union in his cabinet. Discussing the company's rejection of President Wilson's plan for a settlement of the strike, the report says: "Mr. Rockefeller not only rebuffed the president by denying bis earnest request, tut if the letters of his agent6 may fce iclied upon, he apparently dethe president and the public by means of the company's letter of rejection." 1 The report then gives extracts from the letters written by President J. F. Welborn and Ivy L. Lee of the Rockefeller staff.

ASSEMBLY TO SHOW

INCREASED RECEIPTS DESPITE THE WEATHER

Even if another spell of inclement weather should ' prevent large .attendances Saturday and Sun day, he said, he would not be surprised to see the receipts equal to an amount sufficient to cover mil losses caused by the rain, last week. To date there is a difference of $1.560 in paid admissions, exclusive of season tickets, between the receipts this year and those of last season. There have been almost as many season tickets sold this year as last. Every pleasant day since Chautauqua opened, the admission receipts have been greater than those of the

corresponding days of last year. The

talent this year cost almost the same as last year and tbe concession stands are paying tbe same amount for privileges as those of specified contracts last year. All of the Chautauqua managers are optimistic regarding the financial outcome of the 1915 season. -

COOK'S FIGURES ON AUTO TAXES REPORTED WRONG

- What is presumed to- have been a clever scheme to fool the taxpayers of Indiana into believing that the office of Secretary of State Cook has been run ' much more economically than any of bis predecessors have run it, has been discovered by the state board of accounts and the facts have been made known. . 8everal days ago there appeared in One of the state papers a report from the secretary of state relative to the collections of automobile licenses. County Treasurer Chamness Immediately wrote a letter to the state board of accounts telling of the discrepancy that existed between tbe report as published and the report sent to him as a county official. The reply to this Inquiry was received this morning by Mr. Chamness an.dthe statement of the secretary of state is corrected. Instead of gross receipts of $538,290.92, which are the official figures. Secretary Cook had published the gross receipts . to be 1636,960.04, which in reality are the gross receipts less the rebates. In his reported office expenses he makes public through the' newspapers $29,600.83, stating that this is a Saving of $7,2-.67 over last year. In reality, according to the figures of the state board of accounts, the office expenses were 336,634.00. Secretary Cook merely omitted his expenses for postage and printing, which ought to be included in his expense account.
