ROOSEVELT EMITs
ANOTHER ROAR
Says The Panama Purchase AlIesa-
tons are 6aseIess String of Stand
srs, and Joe Pulitzer Should be
Prosecuted for Libel.

Washington. Dec. 1s.-President
Roosevelt yesterday sent to the senate
statement concerning the purchase
of Panama Canal property by the
United States, and denouncing in
strong language the charges that there
was anything wrong in the acquisi-
ton by the United States of canal
property.
These stories,~ ne continues. were
first brought TO my attention as pub
iished in paper in indianapolis. call
ed the News. edited by Mr.. Delavan
Smith. The stories were scurrilous
and libelous in character. and false in
every essential particular. Smith
shelters himself behind the excuse tnat
he merely accepted statements which
had appeared in a paper publishes in
New York, the World, and owned by
Joseph Pulitzer
Summarizing the charges made in
this connection. the president says. in
part: THE statements sometimes APP
peared in editorials. sometimes in the
news columns, sometimes in the shape
of Contributions from individuals. eth
er unknown or known TO be of bad
character They are false in every
particular from beginning to end.
"The wickedness of the SANDERS is
only surpassed by their faulty. So
apparently they represent in part
werely the material collected for cam
paign purposes. and in part stories
originally concocted with a view of
blackmail."
Infamous Libels
The president adds: Now these
stories, as a matter of fact, need no
investigation whatever No shadow OF
proof has been, or can be. produced in
behalf of any OF them. They consist
simply of a string of infamous iibels.
In form, they are in part libeIs upon
individuals. upon Mr.. Taft and Mr..
Robinson, for instance. but they are
in fact wholly, and in form partly. a
libel upon the United States govern
ment. l do not believe we should con-
Germ ourselves with particular indi-
viduals, who wrote the lying and IL
belous editorials. articles from corre-
spondents, or articles in the news col
umns.
The Real Offender
The real onepder is MIR. Joseph Pu-
liter, editor and proprietor of the
World. While the criminal offense of
which Pulitzer has been guilty is in
the form of libel upon individuals, the
great injury done is in blackening the
good name Of the American people 1t
should not be left to private citizen
to sue Pulitzer for libel He should
be prosecuted for libel by government
authorities"
The president continued: 1T is
therefore, high national duty to
bring to justice this viIlifier of the
American people. The attorney gen.
eral has under consideration the form
in which proceedings against Mr.. Pu-
liter shall DE brought"
The president then explains the
method of concluding the purchase.
saying the transaction was carried
through by the attorney general, then
Knox, and not by hay or Root. The
president accepts all responsibility for
carrying cut the will of Congress. He
says this government had nothing to
do with the distribution of the forty
millions. He also includes copy of
the statement made by Cromwell on
the 18th.
