cess OF Hunt and says All Are well.
Glenwood Springs. Col, April "a
Details of the killing Of four bears by
the presidents party Thursday have
not come in. Late yesterday Secretary
Loeb received telephone message
from a ranchhouse two miles from the
camp. The message was dictated by
the president and was read to Mr..
Loeb by Mr.. Chapman, the courier. 1t
said:
I'VE got four bears yesterday. We
are all we'll"
There was more to the message
touching upon government affairs but
the rumor that the president had been
i'll was proven unfounded.
1t has not been determined when the
party will move to it's new location,
about sixteen miles from Glenwood
Springs. The sport on the West Divide
creek has been SO good that the presi-
dent dislikes to leave. At the same
time it is believed the change pro-
posed will result in the killing of griz-
zlies which variety has been particu-
larly scarce. Brown bears have been
found in plenty, but the grizzly and
the silver tip appear to be too willy for
the hunter.

PHILADELPHIA AIR
 SEEMS ID BE BAD Serious Charges Against AS- siStant U. s. Treasurer TOO ACTIVE IN POLITICS Alleged That He Has Created Public Scandal By His Activities In Po-
 litical Matters in Schuyl-
 kill County.
TOO ACTIVE IN POLITICS

Philadelphia. September 13.-The charges against William R. Leib, assistant United States treasurer here, have been for warded to President Roosevelt. It was reported today that MT. Leibs resigna- ton had been demanded but this was not correct.
 The charges against MT. Leib were pre- ferred by the civil service reform associa- tion of this city. MT Leib is chairman of the Schuykill county republican com mittee. The charges which were investi- gated by George F. Wales, chief clerk of the appointments division of the civil service commission, and Robert D. Jenks, secretary of the civil service reform association, were:
 First, that MT Leib violated the ordes of President Roosevelt prohibiting federal office holders from taking part in pol- tics; second, that Mr. Leib had created public scandal by his activity in political matters in Schuylkil county.
 Asked to Contribute.
 There are about thirty subordinates in the sub-treasury here and at the vari- ous hearings held by MT. Wales, testi- mony was presented to show that these or some of them had been asked by MT. Leib to contribute to campaign funds. Only few of the employees in MT. Leib's department are from Schuyllkill county, where he is the recognized organization republican leader. Hearings were held here, Pottsville, Schuylklll. Haven and several other towns in Schuylkill county. At the hearing at Pottsville a letter was produced, signed by the republican execu- tive committee federal office holders for campaign contributions w. A. Womer, Q member of the committee, testified that no person had ever been directed on behalf of the committee to send out let ters requesting contributions.
 The charges were denied by MT. Leb.
 MT. Leib admitted activity in politics and said that occasionally department employees contributed to state county, and ward committees but declared that he had never asked them 10 do so.
 Resignation Not Demanded.
 With reference to the rumored demand for his resignation MT. Leib, who came here from his home in Pottsville, today said that he had not resigned nor had his resignation been demanded
 There will be a hearing in my case,'' he said, but I do not know what the charges are upon which the present ac- ton is based, nor do I know by whom they were preferred. Charges of perni- clous activity in politics, contrary to civil service rules, were preferred against me some time ago by the civil service com mission. l had a hearing at that time and although I did not receive official notice upon the subject, l was given to understand that the charges had been gatlgfaPtOrilU apSwprpd ad1 I charges were made by the civil service commission that l had collected campae<h contributions from governmental em- ployes. also answered these. as I had not heard any more about the case, I thought the matter had been dropped"
