the correspondence Obtained from the State Depart
ment concerning the CONNECTION Of Minister Schenck

the correspondence is understood TO br contained in
two OF three letters which passed between Secretary

the Department his connection with the mining
company and defended it as a private business
Transaction, with which tie peOpe OF the United
States had no concern. After consultation with the
Pr sident Mr.. Fish replied that Gen. Scheneks IN
yestInent in Emma Mine stock was personal mat
ter but that his connection with the directory eI-
posed him 10 criticism which, whatever might br
