CRITICISES
ROOSEVELT
TiIlman Alleges Bad Faith on The
Part of the President.
MAKES FURTHER STATEMENT

claims one OF the Most Valuable and
Essential Features of the Rate Bill
Has Been Lost by the Chief Exeeu-
tlve's Action--South Carolina Mans
Speech to the Senate.
Washington, May Ex-senator Till
man made a further explanation in
the senate concerning his negotiations
with the president and had former
Senator Chandler's memoranda read,
The presidents letter to Senator Ali
son was also read at the instance OF
the Iowa senator. Mr.. Tillman said:
There are only two points in the
presidents letter which deem worthy
of notice. His attempted explanation
is ingenious, but not ingenious. lie
calls in question the integrity of pur-
pose and utterance of Mr.. Chandler by
declaring he was asked to see eX-
Senator Chandler as representing Mr..
Tillman, who was in charge of the
bill. He stated to me the views OF
Mr.. Tillman with seeming authority.
Mr.. Chandler has declared most posi-
lively in written statement that the
president sent for him for the purpose
of getting into communication with
Senator Bailey and myself, and he has
produced the letter of Mr.. Loeb.
declare most emphatically that to
no human being have | ever given au-
thority or even expressed wish to
Roosevelt in regard to the bill now un-
der consideration. On the contrary, l
have expressed the opinion in more
than one public interview that he had
nothing to do with it and that it was
the business of the senate, and while
l did, at his request, enter into nego-
tiations with the attorney general, it
is well known to every senator on this
floor what my attitude and feelings
have been, and it is most remarkable
while the president sent for Democrat
after Democrat to confer with him
about this measure that he should un
dertake under the circumstances to
assert that l sent an agent to him to
begin negotiations. The statement is
absurd on it's face.
THE other point to which | shall
refer is the cavalier way in which Mr..
Moody discusses the idea of the presi-
dent not being bound. While contra
dieting in no instance, however slight,
my statement of what occurred, the
attorney general seems TO think that
the code of honor among gentlemen is
not binding upon the executive and
his cabinet. The president asked him
to see Mr.. Bailey and myself, We met
by appointment made by Senator
Chandler, and talked over the vital
question He wrote and sent to Mr..
Bailey his understanding of our views,
and when we met subsequently we
reached an absolute agreement, both
as to the form and the substance OF a
the president would assent and help
get votes for. The president was not
bound not to change, but he was
bound under such circumstances to
give notice, and this was not done.
Even the attorney general himself was
not notified The charge | made and
still make is that the president is
guilty of bad faith, and that the rate
bill which will be enacted into law,
much better and stronger measure
than we had hoped to get, has been
emasculated of one of its most valu.
able and essential features by the
presidents action"

To Probe Monnett's Record.

Bucyrus, o., May 15.-Judge Tobias
in charging the grand jury asked for
an investigation of the record OF
Frank S. Monnett and former Prosecu-
tor Charles Gallinger of this county,
on the rumor that in a case against
several railroads several years ago
they received $4,000 more than was
authorized by the court, which extra
amount, it is alleged, has never been
accounted for Monnett is at present
engaged as special counsel for the
government in the investigation of the
relations of the railroads with the iron
and coal industries. The case was one
in which suit was brought by Monnett
and Gallinger against the Ohio Cen
trial and Hooking Valley railways, en-
deavoring to GUST them as a trust.
The case was finally settled, the court
authorizing a payment of $4,000 by
the railway companies.

Cleveland, o., May 1j-At a meet
ing here, coal operators of the middle
district of Ohio decided to support the
aggressive policy of the Pittsburg
Vein Operators association to force a
settlement of the coal strike in Ohio.
The two districts that have declared
for this change of policy represent the
major portion of the coal mining in
dustry of Ohio. Both groups OF oper-
ators are following out the general
policy adopted at the joint state meet
ing in Chicago last week. Members
of the two groups say that although
they are perfectly willing to treat with
the miners and submit their differ
ences to arbitration, they will grant
the miners but comparatively short
time to accept. At the expiration OF
that period. which will be probably
next week. several operators of the
eastern district expect to begin run
ming their mines with whatever labor
they can get, so they announce.

brought into the limelight, showing
that when a market had been obtained
at Chicago at 80 per cent better prices
than offered by the Standard the roads
charged excessive freight rates on
crude, which prevented independents
from shipping to the Chicago markets.
The Standard at the same time sent
the price of Lima oils down to 15
cents barrel and bought millions Of
barrels. Today that 15-cent oil is re-
fined. 1t is taken as required from

ducers will attempt to show that the

900 reputable business men take
and carry 100 bales each &c scatter
ing cotton that IS now going on the
market. not interfering. of course,
with cotton already pledged 10 the
Cotton Association. This will make
one million bales vi rtually retired
from the market. The price OF this
cotton IS to be settled on by the assO-
citation and in addition 10 TINS / pro-
pose that if the above is not feasible,
then i've thousand take 200 bales
each. You can count on me for eth
er proposition. If we intend to do
anything with Wall street gamblers
we Will have TO buy the cotton our
selves and thus take iC off the mar
l<er I have already written Presi-
dent c. G.. Moore, of our State AssO-
Ciation, as to this. What do you think
of this suggestion.
".Please Let me know how many
bales reported to be held and would
thank YOU TO give me the number of
bales in stock in New York. There is
very little cotton moving i'll this sec
ton. Farmers are holding well. |
will thank YOU to- let me hear from

Concluding let me say L saw in

The work done, was prompted by
hearts within men VINO are grossly in

say that Wake county farmers are
