"Inter-Ocean" Is very similar in spirit
and words. There is not much hope for
you increasing belief in your present
denial Of these ISLANDERS on the alleged
disagreement Of the reports Of your
speech In the Chicago papers. We have
to remember that we have here three
separate and distinct reports Of your
speech The "Tlmes" and Tribune"
agreeing verbatim, and the Inter
Oceans account agreeing In spirit and
substance. Was there q conspiracy on
the part OF all three papers 10 misrepre-
sent you and In the same way? It
would be difficult to think that the two
papers agreeing were not q verbatim

the reporters statement OF what he un-
derstood you to have said You may
think this an unkind view 10 take Of the
matter, but ] express this belief because
you seem TO attach some Importance
to the disagreement In the reports OF
your speech. In your letter 70 me YOU
say "The account in the Tribune
differed from those In the Times and

state that ! did not use the language

papers are quoted, The report IN the

ferent from both those quoted by Mr..

TO the fact that this disagreement Is on

is to be noted IN passing that neither
