OUR WASHINGTON LETTER

(From Our Regular Correspondent
MR.. ED1ToR-The Senate Committee
which is looking into Panama Canal at
fairs has gotten itself into. bad tangle
at the very outset of its labors. 1t has
recalcitrant witness on it's hands in the
person of Mr.. Poutney Bigelow, maya
zine writer of some reputation. Mr..
Bigelow was college classmate of EN-
peror William of Germany and a close
friend of President Roosevelt beside be
ing traveller, good all round sports
man and writer of international repute
Mr.. Bigelow, it will be remembered some
time ago wrote magazine article saying
a number of unpleasant things about the
Panama situation. He was singled out
by Secretary Taft as the one writer
among great many who had been saying
unpleasant things about the canal, for a
spirited reply. The secretary alleged
that Mr.. Bigelow had only been on the
Isthmus % hours and knew nothing OF
what he was writing about. However,
that is more or less beside the mark.
Poultney Bigelow's article was no more
or less severe than good many others
b ad been but he was an author of some
reputation and therefore good man to
make an example of. The Senate com
m ittee undertook TO cross question him
as to his sources of Information and why
he should dare to write ANYTHING againsr
the canal. Now, being friend of tht
President, it is not likely that Mr.. Bige
low was actuated by any personal malice
in the things he wrote. And it has beer
proved a good many times that newspa
per and magazine writer's are not. given
to betraying their sources of information
under ccmpulsion. Toe Senate has beep
up against this sort of recalcitrance al
least once III the past few years in the
case of the Su ar Trust investigation
mere u bad W. T., wA.:an'r men, JoE;
onIlveI anu .Lai ts EuwaIus wnsm /
undertook to put ON the rack and force
to divulge the names Of their informants
in certain matters they had written about.
The writer's baked and claimed that TIT
things told them were as much privileged
as the statements made professionally to
priest or physician. The Senate certi
fed them in contempt and they were con-
structively convicted but their trial and
conviction was a farce and they never
saw the inside of a Jail. Whether they
were right or whether Mr.. Bigelow was
right in the things they published became
a minor question beside the larger one of
the right of congressional committee to
haul up any author and compel him to
divulge the ames of any people he has
talked with in gathering material for an
article. The committee has divided Oh
party lines, Senator German and Senator
Simmons holding that it is unwise to push
Mr.. Bigelo " to extremes, while Senate.
Knox and his colleages declare that hs
should be certified to the President of the
Senate and punished for contempt Sena
tor German has taken the common sense
view of the case whatever the law may
be. For to single Mr.. Bigelow out for
punishment would be to make martyr
of him before the public and to freeze up
