 Your declination is placed upon what you must have known if you are familiar with the public prints, was an impossible condition. You must have known that when that letter was writ ten that had stated in public speeches repeatedly that I had been employed by H. Clay Pierce in many transactions, as his attorney, for which services ne paid me, and you, therefore, imposed condition which you know was impos- sible of performance.
 T had hoped that you did not wish to descend from the exalted position which you hold to engage In political warfare against me and believed that you would afford me an opportunity to examine papers supposed to be in your possession which I had denounced as forgeries at a time when every effort of interruptions and designing enemies is being concentrated to blacken my character and reputation
 ''If it be your purpose to use that power of your official position in an effort to destroy me by use of papers which l know to be forgeries, If they reflect what I am informed through your questions, the public print and otherwise, they purport to reflect then as a manly man you should meet the issue squarely and no longer rrate about being filled with shame and sor- row concerning the existence of papers which l denounce to be spurious and which you refuse to let me see.
 Before concluding the reference to your letters want to state to you and to Sthe public. that your assump- tion that have had an opportunity to ascertain If any sums of money are charged on the books of the Waters Pierce oil Company as expended, in- cured with reference to the Texas antitrust cases. or otherwise, is who'll ly gratuitous.

SENATOR GIVES ATTORNEY GEN.

Austin, Tex, Dec 6.-5enator Bai- ley, who is here from Washington to answer charges made by Attorney General Davidson of Texas, to the ef- feet that Senator Bailey received money from both the Waters Pierce and Stan dard oil Companies, through President H. c. Pierce of the former company, for securing the readmission of the waters-Pierce Company .n his State. after having been busted 7ix years ago. under. the antitrust laws and which company is again defending itself from busting proceedings gave out lengthy statement tonight most exhaustive of the matter under discussion.
 While Senator Bailey admits receiv- ing money from President Pierce of the waters-Pierce oil Company to the amount of some s15 900, as harged by Attorney General G. F. Davidson, he says that 1t was in the nature of a loan and he returned it and that he is pre- pared to prove his statements to that effect.
 He admits having received several sums of money from Mir. Pierce. among the number specified being 2 loan of ys,000 which he made with MT. Pierce at one time when he needed sonne money In a hurry and which he returned in season. He says that Mir. Pierce was never able to find his 1ote when he went to settle 1t. but that he i've him an acknowledgement in vr,ting and that he now holds that acknowledge ment, that these matters arc of docu- mentary evidence which should prove .onclusively that there vas nothing underhanded about any of his actions 1s has been intimated.
 He asked Attorney Davidson today to furnish him with all the records that gentleman holds concerning drafts, etc, that showed that he (Bailey) had received money from Pierce, or the Waters Pierce oil Company. This the Attorney General declined to do, saying that Mir. Bailey know whether he had received any money from these oil in- terests and Mir.

It has now been found that perfect records may be secured by means of a new device known as the telegraphone. The records for this machine, which is designed primarily for correspondence dictation and to take down converse tion over the telephone, are made by magnetic impressions on a steel wire or disk These are practically inde- structible.
 It is said that the records made by the telegraphone are so perfect that they can hardly be distinguished from the original voice. Once a record is made it can be transferred any num- Der of times, and these duplicate rec ords will reproduce perfectly, while one photograph record can not be made from another successfully. Cne telegraphone has already reproduced over 1000 times a record which shows no signs of having lost any of it's or iginai strength and clearness.
 Scientists and philologists are there- fore giving much attention to the tel eEraphone as a means of preserving the only records that will exist in the future of characteristic dialects, which are gradually disappearing.
