Tafts Representatives Say Story OF
Negro Being Invited to Dine Not Trne.
Especial to The Times -Dispatch.l
WASHINGTON. D. c., May 24-sec-
retary Taft returned this evening from
Cleveland, and went to the White
House soon after his arrival In the
city and remained until late. The story
that the secretary. while returning
from Panama via Charleston last week,
had Invited negro to dine with him
IN the dining car while coming through
North Carolina. is positively denied by
others of Secretary Taft's party.
though the secretary has not paid any
attention to the story.
The story went that Secretary Taft
invited Billy" the negro messenger
from the War Department, who was
taken to Panama to come into the
dining car and have dinner, and that
the conductor Of the train refused 10
allow the colored man to do so, alleg-
tng that the Jim Grow" car law of
North Carolina forbade.
The story is not true: otherwise il
is all right" said representative OF
Secretary Taft. THE most important
feature Of the story is. the negro was
not there. The, negro messenger did
not violate the Jim Grow law of North
Carolina; did not manifest any desire
to do so; did not eat with the Secre-
tary Of War, and was not invited to
eat with him. That Is all"
