Philip DobIin Retracts His Allega.

Charges Foul Plot to
Ruin Him.

Washington. Jan. e. Philip Doblin,
who testified before the house commit
tee on naval affairs on Saturday that
he had approached Representative Les-
sier Of New York with an offer Of
money to influence Lessler's vote on the
sumbarine bill, made the astounding
statement before the committee today
that-he made statements on Saturday
which were not true. and that he
wanted to retract his statement that
Qulgg had rendered brlbe to him.
Members of the committee looked at
each other in amazement as Doblin
went on with his statement.
Doblin was rlgidly cross-examined by
every member of the committee, but
he persisted in saying that he was tel
ling the truth, and adhered to his de-
malls. When Dobin left the stand the
coinmittee's program. which conten-
plated calling DR.. W. B. Kerr to the
stand, was abandoned, and it went into
secret session. Some of the members,
In view Of the remarkable development, |
favored dropping the investigation. but
others urged that it be continued.
II is understood that Lessler asked |
that he be permitted to make a state
ment. and said that he had another
witness he would call, whereupon the
committee decided TO meet again at
1880 In the morning.
Representative Lessler was present
in the committee room when Doblin
gave his testimony. He expressed
surprise at Dobln's retraction, but
would say nothing.
Delaney Nicoll, attorney for Mr..
Quigg, when interrupted in the cross
examination Of Doblin, said
