Hon. William Scallon,

non. William SCa41Ou, /.
Butte, Mont. ~:
MY Dear Mr.. scallon:
I note what you say concerning the
publication Of statement that was
connected with the Occur d'Alene mat
ter, and requested sending troops to
that place at the time Of the trouble.
Let me say, once for all, that any
statement connecting me in any way,
directly or indirectly, with the Occur
d'Alene affair, is a downright false
hood, and any statements directly or
indirectly connecting the Standard Oil
Company with the Occur d'Alene trou-
bles, are alike false. The committee Of
the industrial commission Investigated
the matter on the spot, and great
effort was made to connect the Stand
ard Oil Company or some Of its people
with the Bunker Hill or some other
mine. It was complete failure all
the way through, and if remember
correctly, Hon. Lee Mantle was on the
committee, and can be easily found.
I never owned share of stock, or
a piece Of ground, or had an interest
in any way, shape, or manner, in any
property in idaho.
Yours truly,
[signed] 81. II. ROGERS.

McCullagh tonight sent to the board of
police commissioners, the chief Of police
and other officials, communication
which he says he has received to the eff
feet that organized attempts will be
made in many of the election districts of
this city to interfere with and intimidate
voters on election day. Supt. McCul-
lagh says: II do not hesitate to state
that the element engaged in this contem-
plated violation of the law has been
greatly encouraged and fortified by the
open advocacy of violence at the polls
reported in the daily prints by persons
prominent in political activity. The in
reference with voters indicated in my
information will be the blocking of the
polls by organized gangs Immediately
after the opening thereof by forming a
line ostensibly of voters and applying for
ballots under fictitious naames and after
being rejected to reform again in the
rear of the line"
McCullagh says an open threat has
been made that his deputies will be as
saulted if they attempt 70 90 their duty.

That Coeur d'AIene Fake.

we spent about week examining wit
nesses and taking testimony referring
to the blowing up Of the Bunker Hill
and Sullivan mill and mine. We had
read and heard much to the effect that
the Standard Oil owned the Bunker
Hill and Sullivan property, and that
the soldiers were sent to the Coeur
d'Alenes at their request, ETC., etc.
Wishing to ascertain the truth or
falsity OF this charge, we went very
fully into this phase Of the subject,
at evidence was adduced tending to
show directly or indirectly that the
standard Oil Company, or any one con-
nected with 1t, including n. II. Rogers,
owned, or ever had owned, a single
share of stock in the Bunker Hill and
Sullivan property, or any other prop
ersy in that locality, or that they were
in any manner connected or concerned
with the troubles in any way what
ever. Mr.. j. r. Sovereign was himself
sworn, and under oath testified that
he had no knowledge upon the subject
except hearsay; nor did he attempt to
prove or sustain the charge. On the
coatrary, after his attention had been
called to the testimony, he said he
sheuld not again make the statement.
+ The entire testimony taken by the
commission showed conclusively that
the governor of Idaho, Mr.. Stuenen-
berg, was alone responsible for the
calling in of federal troops and the
existence of martial law, as we'll as
foT the wholesale arrests which fol-
lowed. And it is only fair to say
that Governor stuenenberg publicly
assumes the responsibility and in no
wise seeks to shirk or evade it.
The proceedings of the sub-commit-
tee, including the testimony taken, are
published.
