HEARST Makes REPLY.
Has Complete Confidence in League
Representatives, He Says.

Ogdensburg, N Y, Oct. 1S.-w. R. Hearst
saw tonight an Associated Press dispatch
which stated that Charles T. Murphy had said
that certain representatives of the Independence
League had demanded money for the with
drawal Of league candidates. Mr. Hearst said:
About as much weight should be given to this
similar statement by Woodruff. In many in
stances the league has indorsed Democratic
candidates. On the other hand, in many places
the league had nominated independent candt-
dates for the Senate and Assembly and In some
places for Congress 1t has made independent
nominations where the Democratic candidates
did not appear to be of character to carry out
the principles to which the league is pledged,
and In some other cases to give adequate repre-
sentation to labor. the Importance OF which
neither of the other parties has sufficiently
recognized Where these independent candi-
OATS are in the field they likely to be elected
and consequently 1t is natural that the managers
Of either one of the old parties should seek to
oppose them by every campaign trick or dis
creditable method
For instance, Fitzgerald the letter carrier who
is running for Congress in Brooklyn on the Inde-
pendence League ticket, has been informed by
the administration that he must retire or be dis
charged from position that he has occupied for
years and in which he has won many service
stripes for long and faithful work. / imagine
Murphys vague charge is a campaign roorback-
II he has any reasons to sustain such charge,
ii is his duty. of all American citizens, to adj
minister the most stinging rebuSe possible at the
nolIs tn the guilty parties. But If he has such
evidence the statement is unworthy of belief and
should react upon It's author
sincerely hope the grand Jury VIII investigate
fully so that complete justice may be done, and
either the guilty disgraced or the innocent vim
dicated. I have complete confidence in the in
teerttv of the representatives OF the Indepen-
dence League, and consider this attack stu
pid campaign falsehood.
