di5or SCRANTON TRIBUNE;
Enclosed fad letter from Humphrey B.
Chamberlain in answer TO letter written
him while abroad, which yOu will please
publish. IL was not written for publica-
iion as you will see by what i5 contains,
yet in a measure will somewhat contra
Dict the accusation made IN an article OF
Thursday, Feb. I, Of your paper. WIl
further state chat think that the Scran-
ton people have not now nor have been
interested In the Fort Worth property
but will say tnaJ tlsy were interested in
the Pueblo Consolidated Land company Of
Denver. Tle stock was sold in the mar
kst by one Lewis +. Newman, who mis-
represented the matter and the facts IN
regard 20 the company's business in every
respect, II the reports Of those who have
VisIlad the land since are true | would
also say that have had two conferences
with T. =. Chamberlain. and he states 10
me that he viii give n5 ell the Information
In his possession 4ld convince "a that on
the part OK their company 10 was an error
in judgment. ! ask all Of the Scranton
stockholders 10 suspend judgment until
present the Information that I now and
shall soou have, and if desired, have the
promise that Mr.. Chamberlain will meet
~ at Scrauton, and n he cannot then show
that the failure was unavoidable and not
brought on by their company for specula-
tive purposes I, for one, will join with
others TO bring him TO justice. / have no
confidence IN Lewis i. Newman, who is
now in Springfield, Mass, and hope to in
terview MIN in the near future in regard to
these matters, Very respectfully.
J. d. ST0CKER.
Jermyn, Pa, Feb 3, 1894
The letter from Mr.. Chamberlain is as
follows:

DEAR SIR ! got here Monday. Tuesday
the cruel and UNJUST raid was made on mo
by q dissatisfied customer and have been
in not water since and been obliged to
postpone consideration Of my acc1mu-
lated mail hope to get TO il first next
week.
Am accused Of selling stock in a COM
pany which had no title TO the land Ev-
cry dollar we received was paid 10 the
purchase Of the land and telegram from
Fort Worth confirms my statement that
we have always had possession and own
ership under a deed and declaration OF
