Steel Workers, said:
we are satisfied with the results
of today. We have made progress.
There have been no disturbances. and
the Amalgamated men who are max

There have been many accessions to

General Superintendent ". 3. Cory,
of the Homestead plant, had this to
say:
I'VE arc operating our plants with
the usual forces. There are as many
men at work in the mills as there usu-
ally are on Sunday night. The men

In Which lie Was NJ ado To Dcnouncc
the Administration Was IL rurc Fnb-
rication.
Detroit, July 3.-Governor Pingree
last night dispatched Il letter to Sec
rotary Alger, brought out by criti-
rslns of Tie secretary concerning the
agreement made by the governor to
rupport Secretary Alger in his CAM
pasn for the United States senator
ship. The letter declares:
81 have been receiving large num-
bers OF clippings from newspapers pub
lishcl in every part of the country
containing what purports to be an in.
tcrview with me. in which criticisms
of the present administration are put
in my mouth. 1t did not seem to me
necessary to deny the interview, and
| would not now give it any thought
whatever were il not for the fact that
il is made the basis Of petty ana
mean spirited attack upon you. The
interview to which | have referred is Il
pure fabrication. There is not
single sentence in it which was
spoken by me. 1t is the invention OF
a reporter who inay or may not have
been acting upon instructions from his
chief.
II have at different times expressed
my opinion of the necessity for the
war in the Philippines. have, in
common with thousands of others i'll
the country. dsapproved of it, and
have had no hesitation in giving my
views whenever have been asked for
them. voted for Mckinley, and |
have had no cause whatever to regret
it. If he is IL candidate again will
take pleasure in giving him my sup
port.
Il am well satisfied that the attack
upon the war department is nothing
but a cunningly conceived plot to
create a vacancy to he filled by New
York politician. Already the New
York newspapers are discussing the
distribution of the patronage OF the
department The other papers in the
country have simply repeated what the
New York newspapers have said. Or
course. it is not surprising that Sena-
tor McMilin and his me too. Senator
Burrows. have joined in the con-
tcmptible scheme to discrcdit and de-
fame the war department.
In so far as the alleged alliance
with you is concerned, ! can freely
and frankly say that none has been
made. In common with thousands OF
other Michigan people | merely Of
fered to assist you If anything. have
prolted by it politically, because the
American people detest cowardly
methods of fighting.
THE language which is attributed
to me in the false interview. in which
| aIn made to criticize and abuse the
administration. should have con-
dcnmned the interview as fabrica-
ton ut once But even more absurd
is the statement made by the press
| that ! am candidate for the Repub-
lican nomination for president, that
YOU have made an alliance with me,
and that therefore you have practically
declared your opposition to Presiden;
Mckinley, and should retire from his
cabinet. ! have not. and never did
entertain the rcmotest intention of be-
coming candidate for the presidency.
The story is only another invention OF
Michigan newspapers.
