Mr. Archbold continued on the witness stand this noriilng in the oil case but it was ex pected his testimony would be con cluded by this afternoon.

The processes through which the Standard Oil trust was liquidated and its thirty subsid iary companies brought under the con trol of the present Standard Oil com pany of New Jeisey were developed in interesting detail by John D. Arch- bold under cross-examination in the federal suit to dissolve the Standard Oil company. Mr. Archbold declared that the tivist had been liquidated In the period of years from 1892 to 1899 with all good taith to obey the man dates of the Ohio supreme court order ing the ( rust dissolved. There was no ulterior move in the fact that only about 51 per cent of the trust certifi cates were liquidated into the stocks of the subsidiary companies , said Mr. Archbold. Small holders declined to liquidate , preferring to retain their cer tificates , which had a market value , rather than to obtain inflnlteslmally small parts In the several minor com panies. Mr. Archbold made It plain under a series of questions from gov eminent counsel , that the Standard Oil company of New Jersey had been selected as the holding company be cause the laws of New Jersey were reasonable in their treatment of cor porations. All the holders of trust certificates , after obtaining their pro rata shares In the subsidiary compa nies , turned them Into the New Jersey company and received their proportionate tionate amount of stock. The Stand ard Oil company of New Jersey , the present holding company , Is the com bination which the government la seeking to dissolve. Mr. Kellogg , for the government , succeeded' In throwing light on the loans made to T. M. Darnsdale of Plttsburg , an Independent oil producer. Mr. Archbold testified that loans ag gregating $7,500,000 had been made to Mr. Darnsdale to enable him to con tinue his oil operations in various parts of the country. A part of the contract was that nil the crude oil produced by Mr. Barnsdale should bo carried in the Standard's pipe lines. Mr. Archbold testified that former Congressman Joseph C. Slbley of Pennsylvania was identified with the Galena Signal Oil company , a sub sidiary of the Standard. Jt was to Mr. Slbley that Mr. Archbold ad dressed many of his letters which were made public during the recent presidential campaign. Constitutional Debate In Reichstag. Herlln , Dee. 3.
