Oil trust inquiry probes Archbold in New York
Federal counsel Kellogg grilled John D Archbold in a cross examination over Standard Oil influence in owners of Manhattan Oil Company and other units. He pressed questions on loans to James McDonald, Anglo-American ties, and whether the General Industrial Syndicates held Manhattan Oil through the Standard. Archbold denied knowledge of many connections and offered to consult counsel, while confirming limited awareness of specific ownership details and refinery purchases.
