and the probabilities. The public is not
inclined to consider Mr.. Hartman a
person OF high moral standards and
would not readily take his unsupport-
ed word on this subject But the Presi-
dent, in attempting to defend himself.
corroborates Mr.. Hartman so strong
~ that it is difficult to disbelieve the
accuser. discredited as he may be in
general. The shock TO the country is
not in Mr.. Roosevelt's declaration that
Mr.. Hartman is liar, a conspirator
and corruptionist, but that he and
Mr.. Roosevelt were once bosom friends.
and that Mr.. Roosevelt proves that he
was on Mr.. Harriman's level.

baltimore SUM-

Mr.. Roosevelt is convicted out Of
his own mouth and by his own cor
respondence with Mr.. Hartman Of
what would be called crookedness and
ubledealing in an ordinary man. Mr..
Hartman was n delegate TO the Re-
publican National Convention and
voted for the nomination Of Mr.. Roose-
veil. The President wrote TO him on
Juue %, 1904; CAS- soon as you come
home L shall want TO see you. 1t has
bcvn real pleasure to see you This
!e tar, it should be remembered, Mr.
K 'csevelt supprs ssed in the matter
gwen out for publication. On Septem-
h 23 the President wrote to Mr.. Har-
r;tnIn that there were one or two
points in his letter OF acceptance that
he desired to discuss with the railroad
magnate. On October ii President
Roosevelt notified Mr.. Hartman that
he wished to discuss certain govern
ment matters with Mr.. Hartman be-
fore he wrote his annual message to
Congress. These facts establish the ex-
istence OF cordial and even confiden-
tial relations between the President
and Mr.. Hartman at that period. Yet
Mr.. Roosevelt knew then exactly what
kind of man Mr.. Hartman was. He
knew that he was practical TO the
last degree; that he was not in politics
pnrely for recreation or for unselfish
and patriotic purposes. He said, in
fact, in one of his letters to Mr.. Harri-
man, My dear sir, you and l are prac-
teal men," TaF President, as a ''prac-
tical politician" must haYe realized
that the corporations do not give gen
erously to campaign funds for the
mere JOY of giving. He must have had
knowledge Of Mr.. Harriman's meth
o Is and considered himself fortunate
10 be in alliance with him. Whether
in 1907 Mr.. Roosevelt is justified in
-denouncing as liar the man whom
in 1904 he declared it to be ga real
pleasure to see" is a question which
the public must decide on the evidence

woman from the dreadful suspicion
that hangs over her, but, in view of
all the admitted circumstances, is
is unable to believe that it is "the
truth, the WHOLE truth and moth
ing but the truth.
Mrs. Todd and the officials who
are Brightly, we hope) upholding her
must not be surprised if this state
ment be taken with allowances. 1t
will be noted that it was not made
until the net of justice had enclosed
Steele. That from the murder of
her husband, August 81, nearly two
months and half, she had steadily
maintained the innocence of the
murderous suicide; that, if she really
feared personal injury from Steele
her immediate relief from his annoy
ance laid in denouncing him when
he was first under arrest.
In fact, to those who have follow
ed the details of this case, this state
ment is anything but convincing and
is entitled to the same credence
as that of Steele to Attorney
Abel and no more. Both admit
a strong motive for desiring the
death of Todd, and the two "con-
fessions' taken together have all the
appearance of two guilty parties,
each trying to prove innocence by
laying the crime at the door of the
other.
County Attorney Boner is quoted
in the daily press with saying:
Bring me your evidence and / stand
ready to convict Mrs. Todd, but l
will not swear out a warrant on the
alleged confession circulated. This
kind of talk is the veriest rot. The
prosecutor is not to decide the guilt
or innocence of anyone, his sole duty
being to prosecute where there is a
reasonable probability of conviction,
jury will decide upon the testi-
mony. Mr.. Boner can readily compel
those "who claim to have evidence"
to tell what they know by asking the
court for a grand jury to probe this
crime to the very bottom.

Long Deferred Document is Given Out by the
Authorities Saturday Night.
Says She Got Into Stee1e's Power by Writing
Foolish Letters Had Agreed to Divorce
Todd and Go to Mexico With Steele.
Accounts for Long Silence by
Fear Of Todd.

The sworn statement of Mrs. Frank
Todd concerning the murder of her
husband was given out to the press
Saturday by Marshal Mckinney, of
Hoquiam. 1t is dated November u,
the day after the second and last ar
rest of Steele, and reads as follows:
Il, Ethel Todd, do solemnly swear
that what herein write is the truth,
the whole truth and nothing but the
truth:
November, 1906, during county
election, Ralph Steele, John Erick-
son and VIM. Banks, loggers work
for Frank Todd, my husband, came
to our house and rented three rooms
upstairs to keep their clothes and
things. Ralph Steele acted then the
same as any other man, but after a
while he made himself one of the
family and at the invitation of Mr..
Todd, used to come down and talk
and eat, and be one of us.
Il was good to him as was always
good to any nice man that worked
for Frank and tried to be a mother
or sister to them as most of them
were out here alone. Mr.. Steele took
another meaning to my actions and
as he knew Mr.. Todd and myself did
not live happily together, made love
to me and 1 let him. We planned to
live together some time in the fu-
ture and he was to 60 to Mexico
about the first Of September, 1907.

was not going to run away with him
as I wanted to leave my husband
and children in the right way as
wanted to get a divorce. Then Mr..
Todd stopped drinking and things at
home were getting better, but had
put myself in Steele's power by writ
ing silly letters to him and he told

went down town and came home
quite early. 1 went out to the toilet
and the electric button was gone but
as 1T had been gone before, thought
nothing about it. l went to bed early
and left Frank reading. The toilet
chain used to catch and often after
| had gone to bed l have heard the
water running as if some one was
out there but still did not dream of
any harm when heard it that night.
Frank went out to stop it running
and suddenly | heard a noise as if
wood was falling and waiting a min
ute and not hearing anything more
| went to the kitchen door and the
light from the kitchen showed me
Frank lying down and some one else
over him. l tainted and knew moth
ing for some time.
when l came to, was in bed
and Steele was sitting beside me
with a revolver in his hand and
when | cried, he told me it was no
use as the deed was done and he did
1T for me because he wanted me and
there was no other way, only if |
was going to break down he would
finish the job and kill me and him
self. He stayed and talked to me
till about 3 O'Clock and then | got
up after he had gone to see if Frank
was really dead. l stayed in the
shed with him little while and then
went back in the house. Steele told
me not to call anyone until Z O'Clock
but l could stand it no longer.
then said l knew nothing about it
as l was afraid to say anything else.
HE told me that nobody would
suspect him, but if they did they
would suspect me too and that they
would hang both of us. If l would
have only told. they would have
lynched him and my trouble would
have been over but was afraid and
told everybody lies. This is the truth,
so help me God. Steele told me, not
more than week ago, that the mat
ter was dying out and that nobody
thought anything more about it, that
McKenney would be out of office in
about a year, then nobody would be
after him. But because I was a
coward and did not tell the truth 1
knew I might be the cause of more
eaths. (Signed)

case. The Herald would be pleased to

MAUDE FEALY
In "The Stronger Sex" at the Grand.
Tomorrow Night.

Maude Fealy is to be congratulated on
the selection of her play for the present
season as Manager John Cort secured for
her use the great English comedy drama,
"The Stronger Sex" which was the
much talked of play Of the English stage
during the past year. Its great run Of
seven months at the Appollo Theatre,
London, and the fact that it literally
packed that playhouse at each perform
ance during that period, easily proclaims
it worthy vehicle for presentation here.
After playing many of the larger cities of
the west it will be brought to New York
after the holidays, where it will settle
down for long run at one OF the leading
Broadway theatres.
''The Stronger Sex" will be at the Grand
theatre tomorrow night.
