Governor Proposes to Settle Infa-
nous Slander by Going Before
Committee of Five Represen-
tative Newspaper Men

Chicago, Sept 21.-Governor Haskell
of Oklahoma last night gave out the fol-
lowing letter. which he said he had tele-
graphed to William Randolph Hearst:
William R. Hearst, care New York Ameri-
can, New York City:
"Sir:-You are stating in speech and
press, in substance that during the year
1890, when Attorney General Frank S.
Monnett, of Ohio, had several cases pend
ing in the supreme court of that state
against the Standard Oil company, |
sought to influence him to dismiss those
suits. have said and now repeat, that
your statement is absolutely false, and
that never had any relations of any
kind or character with the Standard Oil
company. Our conflicting statements
prove nothing.
you as a newspaper man may, and
should. desire reputation truthfulness. /,
as a public official, demand that those
who accuse me stand forth and make their
proof You know that suit against you
for civil damages or criminal prosecution
against you for libel means long delay
and affords your character of journalism
a chance to cover your expenses before
being called upon to settle. do not want
your money simply desire to expose you
to the public as a false accuser who has
distorted public records and manufactured
statements for base political purposes.
For the purpose of forever settling this
infamous slander which you are circulat-
Ing in your newspapers and on the stump,
now propose that committee Of five, or
amy three of them composed Of the edit
ors of the Springfield. Mass, Republican,
the Chicago journal, the New York World,
the indianapolis News and the ST. Louis
Republic be selected to hear you and
under oath, and all other evidence they
may desire as to the truth or falsity of
your charge, at the earliest possible mo-
ment, and render their decision to the
public in writing. Should this committee
find your charges sustained, shall with
draw from all connection with the present
presidential campaign; should the verdict
be against you, as know it will there be
no other penalty than the public contempt
due every assassin of character.

ned, would indicate that important de-
velopements had taken place.
Mr. Bryans visit to Wolfert's Roost
gave rise to gossip as to the ex-
tent to which Senator Hill would
participate in the campaign. Judge Par
ker already had announced that he would
take the stump in behalf of his party
but no suggestion has come from Senator
Hill that he also would enter upon a
speech making tour, although he is tax
ing a keen interest in the campaign.
All that Mr. Bryan would say concern
ing the days happenings was that he
took long moter car ride with Judge
Parker and that he had dined with SEN
ator Hill last night.

Alcoholic PoisOning-DOc-
tors Examine Body

The remains of Marshal Liechlider, for
merly Of Newark. Ohio, were found on
the wagon road about mills and half
south of town last night, by some boys
According to the information received
at the sheriff's Office Liechlder had been an
day yesterday at the pumping station on
Cabin Creek drinking alcohol. He started
for his home late in the afternoon and
reached the wagon road running west
from the M. X. & T. railway just south Of
the pumping station and had gone about
one hundred and fifty yards west. when
he, evidently, suddenly fell dead. The
boys who were passing there about six
o'clock last night found the body and
went to the home Of T. + Thompson,
nearby, and told of finding the dead man.
Mr. Thompson telephoned Sheriff Riden-
hour who, went down TO that place and
brought the dead body here, where the
remains we're placed in charge Of Under
taker Lewis Rogers.
An inquest was held this afternoon
and the jury returned verdict thar the
deceased had come to his death by alco-
hoIic poisoning Drs Slough, Craig, and
Mccarthy carefully examined the brain
and heart of the deceased, and from their
testimony it was cleaned that Liechlider
wasnot accustomed to drinking alcohol and
thus his dissipation Of yesterday brought
about his sudden death. The inquest was
held at the Lewis Rogers Undertaking
rooms and interment was made this al
ternoon BY the family and friends Of The
