WASHINGTON, April ll.-Secretary lei
Ter Indignantly denies the truth Of the
paragraph which appeared in a Philadel-
phia paper this morning to the effect that
ex-senator Conkling had been trading
upon his influence 1t the Interior Depart
ment. The story was that Conkling had,
for the consideration Of Sc, 200, used his
personal influence to secure the Secre-
tary's signature to an important paper
which would not have been other wise
signed. "Of al the silly stories that get
into the newspapers" said Teller to-day,
ssyou fellows usually have something to
start with, and then enlarge upon it to the
extent Of your fancy. In this, however.
there is not even groundwork. There has
been nc such case before me. ] have
never been asked by Conkling to sign any
thing, and have never signed anything for
Conkling. 1t is simply a cold falsehood
from beginning to end. 1t is not worth
while to deny it. 1t p~resupposes Conk-
ling an unmitigated fool. Conkling has
appeared before me as an attorney to
argue cases. as he has appeared to-day,
and in 40 other capacity"
