TILtNAA SPRINGS A SENSATION IN
COURSE Of A SPEECH ON CURRENCY
Roosevelt Alleged to Have Said if He Was Responsible for the
Panic He Was Glad of 1t.

Washington, Dec. 16.-In the course
OF a speech in the senate today, Sena-
tor Tiilman commented Characteristic
ally on financial affairs He said he
believed that President Roosevelt was
a patriot, and that while he had been
guilty of many indiscretions and said
many things which in cooler moments
he would have been willing to take out
of print, he did not believe that the
president felt any satisfaction what
ever in having been instrumental in
causing the present financial paraly
sis, as had been charged.
IF we are not in the midst of a
panic, 1--WE are in the midst of a chill
produced by danger of a panic" de-
clared Mr. Tillman.
Dahlman's Statement.
Speaking of a published interview
with the president by Mayor Dahlman
of Omaha. i'm which the president is
alleged to have said that if he was re-
sponsible for the panic he was glad of
it, as il had brought to view the rot
ten conditions of the cOuntry's fl
nances, he said:
Il fear that Mr.. Dahlman is in i'm
minent danger of Joining the Ananias
club. Perhaps somebody here will use
the telephone and find out about that"
he spoke of the manner in which the
financial stringency has operated,
And" he added, the president says
he is proud of it. At least Dahlman
says the president says he is proud of
it l cannot believe he said it. He has
said many things lacking discretion,
but I don't believe ne is SC. callOus as
to feel any pleasure in the condition
of paralysis which cOnfronts us. 1 be-
lieve he is a patriot, though he has
perhaps shown it badly at times"

The senator held aloft a clearing

on the senate to look at it.

Crack at ComptrolIers.
The comptrolIers of the currency, he
said, are so cOmplaisant and polite while
they are in office that almost every one
of them has graduated into the presi-
dency of a bank"
He named Mr.. Dawes as one of them,
and tried TO think of others.

The Walsh Failure.

He referred to a resolution he had in
trOduced in the senate a year ago for
an inquiry into the failure of the banks
of which John r. Walsh of Chicago was
the president, but year and half had
gone by before the trial had begun. As
Walsh is under trial he said he would
not comment further on the subject He
had on Saturday telegraphed the district
attorney in New York, asking about re-
cent bank failure, but that official re-
piled that he could not give out infor-
nation regarding the investigation that
is being made.
Il expected to be put off," declared
the speaker. THAT seems to be the pol
lev of the department of justice and the
treasury department"
Mr. Tillman said he only intended to
bring these matters before the commit
tee on finance as questions for them to
answer. When they should answer them
he said. he would ask more questions.

The League is representative.
1t invites and has the hearty CO.
operation of Independents, Demo
Gratis, Republicans, labor organiza-

A large number of college pres
ldents and instructors are "char-

affiliated relationship hundreds of
clergymen, and thousands of pro-
fessional business men throughout
the forty states and the several
territories.
UP to the present time the
League has keen supported by the
private contributions of a few pa
triotic citizens, but the work has
grown to such vast proportions
that it is now necessary to nation
alize its support, and hereafter it's
"plan and scope" will be limited

with the constitutional rights of
citizens denied" abridged" or
more dangerously circumvented
by perversion of the forms of law;
with a weekly average of three
citizens put to death, without legal
trial, every week for nineteen
years, it would seem that the time
for organized protest and action
had arrived.
1t is to the credit Of sympathetic
America that we have been horri-
fed at the Jewish massacres and
Armenian assassinations, but the
outside woil1 has also stood
aghast at the race mobs, lynchings
and massacres in christian Am, T.
lea" North and South.
The League desires the united
influences of Christian civilization,
North and South, to uphold the
law, adequately punish the guilty,
and make every citizen respect the
guarantees Of the Federal Consti-
tuition, without regard to person or
locality.
The League proposes by means
of organized lawful resistance and
positive action, to aid in suppress
ing lawlessness, mob violence,
lynchings and all forms of the
murder spirit, which. as statistics
show, make life in the United
States FIVE times less secure than
in Australia, six times less secure
than in Japan, nine times less So
cure than in Canada, fourteen
times less eecurc than in England,
and thirty times less secure than in

Thomas at NaShville.)
