Washington, MAY 1.-THE sensa-
ti0nal rate bill incident in the senate
Saturday, in which Senator T1l'man,
on authority of former Senator Chan
der. made statements regarding the
pres, dents course in connection with
with the pending rate legislation,
which statements were denied by
Senator Lodge on behalf Of the presi-
dent, had its sequel this evening when
an Official staement was issued from
The White House, giving an account
ii the subject on the part Of the presi-
dent and Attorney General Moody.
The statement was composed OF
two letters. one from the president to
Senator Allison and the other from
Moody 10 the president. Both were
dated today. The president says: '1n
no case, either to Mr.. Chandler or any
one else, was the slightest opportunity
for any honest miscOnception Of my at
titude or any belief that pledged my
self specifically to one and only one
amendment, or set of amendments, or
that ! would not be satisfied with any
amendment which preserved the es-
seRtial features Of the Hepburn bill
as it came from the house. AS to
none of the amendments did I ever say
10 Chandler, or any one else, that
would insist on having them in the
bin as a condition Of my approval"
On the contrary the president said
he was careful TO state that he was
not trying to dictate any particular
program Of action. The president
said his statements TO Mr. Chandler
were the same as those made by him
10 Senator Allison and other senators
Of both parties. The president SAYS
he suggested IL was impossible to use
m as an Intermediary to advantage
and that they communicate with Sen
at9r Allison. whose views were "iden-
tical' with his own.
The attorney generals letter to the
president, gave at the presidents re
guest, the conferences which Mr.
Moody had, BY the presidents direc-
lion, with Senators Tllman and Bal
ley.
