r.. II. Hartman Thursday made the
following statement relative to the re-
cent exchange OF correspondence be-
tween himself and President Roose-
welt:
Il do not intend to continue this
controversy. You gentlemen (mean-
ing the reporters) must try to help me
and not ask me to answer questions
h answers to which are self-evident.
Everybody knows the contest for
h senatorship in 1904 was between
Black and Depew and there could not
possibly have been any other candi-
date. There was no bargain whereby
money was to be raised in considera-
ton Of having Depew appointed as
ambassador to France or made sena-
tor, and my letter to Webster does not
so state. That part of the agreement
was for the purpose of ~harmonizing
the Black-Depew forces If it became
necessary"

O. G Mason. of Aberdeen, nepheW
of the late James Henry Smith, the
New York multi-millionaire who died
recently in Japan while on his we'd
ding trip. enies emphatically that ne
has received word to the effect that
he was left a legacy Of ~s5'ooo'oVo.
While 1t is true Mr.. Mason was named
as one of the executors in a Will rhaoe
by the deceased some time ago, moth
ing whatever is known in America OF
the terms Of the new will made in
London last fall, shortly after MI.
Smith marriage to Mrs. Rh1nelander
Stewart. There is no reason TO sup
pose that Mr.. Mason Is not stlll one
Of the executors and that he has peen
remembered in the will. but all re-
ports of legacies are untrue Tor the
reason that the terms OF the Will are
known only to one solicitor in London.
A cable has been sent to him for a
copy of the will and it is expected in
New York in about another week,
when Mr.. Mason will leave for the
east to attend a meeting of the heirs.
Besides his widow and daughter, Mr..
Smith had a large number of charities
and charges which will doubtless be
literally remembered.
The deceased was we'll known in
Aberdeen and 1t was principally due
to his efforts that Aberdeen was Sc
lected as q division point on the Mill
waukee railroads extension to the
coast. Mr.. Smith vas one Of the
largest holders Of Milwaukee stock in
the board of directors of that road.
