Washington Oct. 3.-PresIdent
Roosevelt today gave oHt for publica-
ton a letter received by him from
w. l. Sturdivant of st Louis, Mo-, in
which the writer declared that Cover
nor Haskell's statement IA his letter
of September so resarding the latter's
connection with the Creek Indian
lands is so imperfect that it is en-
tirely misleading. The text OF the
letter follows:
Dear Mr.. President:
Il notice in Governor Haskells let
ter of date September 80. the follow
ing statement:
"'Yes 1 believe am a defendant
as TO certain government town site
lots in one of nearly I1s000 suits that
you have had brought against as many

these cases, except that eccasioned by
the courts deliberations, taken by him
self as time he deened necessary to
consider whether or not there is any
merits in the petition fild by your at

answered to the merits in single

neys are purely technical, and neces-
sarily dilatory in effect. Mr.. Mott,
attorney for the Creek nation, and
myself have many times urged hear
ing on the merits of these cases and
have personally proposed several
times to his attorney of record that
they file answers in the cases in order
that a hearing might be had on the
merits and the cases, disposed Of
These suggestions have not met an
affirmative response, and the result is
that the cases have taken the regular
course on a heavy docket. We have
answered several times in open court
and otherwise that we are ready for
an immeIiate hearing in any and a.,
suits filed. This has been done with
view of obtaining a speedy ADJUST
ment of the controversy, and in order
to give any person charged with a
primary liability an opportunity to
acqpit himself OF such charge If pos
sible, without delay. This course
could have been pursued without any
violation of ultimate rights, as juris-
diction over the courts; but for rea-
sons probably sufficient unto them
the defendants have not approved it. 4"

KERN DECLARES CLEVELA AND
LETTER FAVORING TAFT
WAS SPURIOUS DOCUMENT
Vice Presidential Candidate
Replies to Demand of New
4. York Times That He Fur
nish Proof, Citing Cleve-
lands Character, and Also
Statements of Former
Presidents Executor.
BY Associates Press.


Macon, Ga, Oct. 3.-John w. Kern,
Democratic yice-presidential candidate,
upon arriving here tonight, tele-
graphed his reply to a request from the
New York Times for proof of the
spurious nature of letter attributed
to the authorship of the late Grover
Cleveland, as charged by Kern in a
speech in Birmingham yesterday. The
letter in question purported to show
that Cleveland favored the candidacy
of the republican presidential nominee
and Kern branded its use as cam
paign document by Taft's managers
as an attempt to place a stigma upon
the memory of the ex-preSident. He
further declared that although proven
to be fabrication, the newspapers re-
sponsible for its circulation either
have failed TO right the alleged wrong
vsr have so placed the retractiOn as TO
attract no attention.
After saving that the declaration OF
the executor of Cleyeland's will that
the letter was spurious was only con-
f1rmatory of the opinion held and ex-
pressed by Cleveland's most intimate
friends and Mrs. Cleveland, Kern's
reply says, in part:
Every intelligent and fair-minded
man familiar with Clsyelandis- charac.
ter, his language and manner of ex-
preston, must have been satisfied, on
casua ireading of the letter in question,
of its spurious nature"
Kern concluded by saying the evil
dence surrounding the case seems to
have convinced everybody .'but the
editor of the Times that the letter
was never written by Grover Cleye-
land and the Times owes TO the Ameri
can public the duty of righting this
great wrong"
