While engaged in this desper-
ate and strenuous effort to still the
public agitation that so seriously
endangered his reelection to the
Senate the attorney general OF
the state in order to secure evil
dence that the Waters-Pierce
Company. which had been pre-
viouly ousted from doing bust
ness in Texas as a corporation
barred by law, and which had
been reinstated through fraud,
was delving into methods employ
ed by that concern to re.enter
Texas. In the prosecution of
this task Senator Bailey's rela.
tons with that corporation and
the character of the services he
had rendered it were disclosed.

whether or not the disclosure will
have the effect of causing Senator
Bailey to walk with a chastened
air. that it spells the beginning
of the end of his political career
in Texas. It also means that the
Waters-P Pierce Oil Company will
again be compelled to seek other
fields in which to do business.

vember %, 1900: $500 on date
not specified and $3.50 on March
%. 1901. A total of $3.50. Aside
from this a demand is made to
bring into court the voucher
showing a loan of $4,000 made to
Senator Bailey by H. G. Pierce
during March. 1901, together
with all the correspondence be-
tween Senator Bailey and the Of
fcers and attorneys of the Wa
ters-Pierce Oil Company.
Attorney General Davidson has
served notice that in the failure
of the attorneys of the Waters
Pierce Oil Company to produce
the letters and records demanded
by the State of Texas he will in
troduce secondary evidence to
prove the contents of the de.
mands. This statement is as
sumed to mean that the attorney
general has in his possession pho
tographs of the vouchers and
checks upon which moneys were
paid to Senator Bailey. This
assumption is no doubt a correct
one, for in the demands the mum.
bers of the checks are specified
and there is also specific refer
ence to the fact. that certain
checks drawn in favor of Senator
Bailey were audited by the audi.
tor of the Standard Oil Company
of New Jersey.
The truth is the record of Sen
ator Bailcy's relations as a SER
want of the Waters-P Pierce Oil Co.
and it's parent organization, the
Standard Oil Trust, seems to be
made so clear and complete that
it is difficult to see what purpose
can be served by an attempt to
challenge it.
Heretofore Senator Bailey has
met the charges that he has made
use of his Office as United States
Senator to promote the interests
of corporations of notorious pre-
datory character by indulging in
violent attacks upon those who
dared to think there was any
truth in the accusations. Accom-

and the managing director of the
Amalgamated Copper company, last

"The name Of the new company
which will acquire the various Heinze

majority of interests will be friendly to
the Amalgamated Copper company and
will be IN a position to arrange all mat
