SAYS HE WAS MISQUOTED.
Building Inspector Ashford Disclaims
Remarks Attributed to Him.

z. J. Gibbs. manager Of The Gibbs
Fire Escape Company, who made pub
lie statement last week to the effect
that Snowden Ashford, District building
Inspector. was promoting a fire escape
which he patented, and that he was
using his official position to advance
the interests of this device and 10 shut
out competition, has given out another
statement in which he declares he will
compel Mr.. Ashford to specify in what
manner he (Gibbs) made false ACCUSE
tions. Mr.. Gibbs also intimates that
Capt. Jay J. Morrow lis a fit subject for
an Investigation
Capt. Morrow had not returned from
Philadelphia at 1 o'clock today, but it
is authoritatively stated he will issue a
statement Immediately upon his return,
in which he will explain why he should
have "chastised'' Mr.. Gibbs.
Inspector Ashford said today that he
is preparing a statement which he will
make public tomorrow, in which he says
he will be able to prove what he said
about the falsity of Gibbs accusations.
Mr.. Ashford will also make public GER
lain correspondence which he claims will
verify everything he has said and which
will set him in the proper light before
the public.
1t is said that Commissioners Macfar-
land and West resent Mr.. Ashford's state
nent that the Commissioners had sand
bagged'' him, and that he considered as
unjust their action in causing him to
abandon his commercial pusuits. 1t Is
not known. however whether or not they
will call upon Mr.. Ashford to explain.
These two Commissioners are very gu ct
upon this subject, and are apparently
leaving it entirely to Commissioner Nor
row and Mr.. Ashford to straighten out.
Mr.. Ashford says he never used the
words .sandbagged. and that he was
misquoted. What | did say was that
had been knocked out Of $500, the cost OF
ny patent" he said.
Mr.. Ashford had patents for an alarm
escape" and disappearing escape. and
he has a patent pending for an improved
alarm attachment.

At THE WHITE HOUSE
Financial Legislation to Be
Settled by Congress.

Cnmistakable hints have been dropped
by republican leaders who have paid
calls or respect upon the President that
hnanc1aI and currency Legislation will be
shaped and rounded into form by Con-
gres and not by the administration.
Anything like an attempt to force
through any currency measure under the
guise that it is supported by the admin
istration will result, it is declared. in
the utter and dismal failure of that bill.
The leaders will give respectful atten-
ton to the recommendations of the
White House and the Secretary of the
Treasury, but will not consent to con-
ferences which put them in the position
Of following the leadership of the. White
House.
1t Is pointed out that the necessity for
currency legislation does not arise from
any great popular demand like that for
railroad rate legislation, when the leaders
were whipped into line for what the adj
nin'stration wanted.
There are so far no evidences that the
President will desire an administration
currency measure considered by Cong. ess.
Outside of his recommendations for postal
saving banks, which he Warmly favors, i
Is not thought that he is committed to any
particular project
The leaders Of the Senate and House are
DESTROYS of avoiding what looks like ad-
ministration pressure for this or that
proposition, and they have SO far kept
away from conferences with the President
and Mr.. Cortelyou. In the Senate Mr..
.Aldrich prefers to be unfettered, and in
the House Speaker Cannon will use his
influence for the enactment of certain
views he entertains. White House and
Treasury opinions will be accepted as
parts of the contributions to an important
subject, but there is a distinct undertow
for bill that represents the thoughts of
Congress and of Congress only.

President Against Exclusion.

President Roosevelt strongly deprecates
the pushing of q bill to exclude Japanes
laborers from this country at the present
time, and so informed Representatives
Hayes and Kahn today. Despite th.s
opinion Of the President the California
and Pacific coast senators and representa-
tives will go forward with their plant
to try to have Congress enact a law pac.
ing the Japanese upon the same basis as
the Chinese, and shut the door of tn
United States to him entirely.
1t was significant that in three minutes
after the President had expressed himself
to the two California representative Am
into the executive offices for conferenr,:
with the President.
