BY MORGAN AND OIL TRUST
La Toilette Says Recent Panic Was
Planned and Executed.

Washington, March 18.-Declaring
that the recent financial stringency in
the country was brought about by the
influence of STANDARD Oil' and j..
Pierpont Morgan Senator La Toilette
of Wisconsin, in a speech practically
closing the debate on the Aldrich cur
rency bill, entered upon denuncia-
ton of men high in the financial
world.
There were no commercial rea-
sons for a panic" said Mr. La Fol-
lette. There were speculative, legis-
lative and political reasons why a
panic might serve special interests.
There were business scores 10 settle,
legislation to be blocked, currency
measure suited to the system to be
secured, third term to be disposed
Of and policies to be discredited."
He severely criticised the provision
of the Aldrich bill by which railroad
bonds are to be made security for
emergency circulation and charged
that 1t was scheme to defeat legis.
lation which might lower railroad
rates.

VICTORY FOR MORSE.
Banker Temporarily Evades Being
Forced Into Bankruptcy.

New York, March 14.-Charles W.
Morse has won temporary advantage
in his fight to escape the bankruptcy
into which certain creditors are at.
tempting to force him. Alleging in
sufficiently secured claims aggregat-
ing nearly $250,000, Charles A. Hanna,
as receiver for the National Bank OF
North America, and two former en-
plOyes of the same institution filed
with Judge Holt in the United States
circuit cour petition that the once
multi-millionaire iceman be declared
a bankrupt. In opposition, counsel for
Morse represented that II. G. Pringle
and E. r. Shotwell, Two of the peti-
TONERS, were not creditors within the
meaning of he law, and that their al
legged claims were unliquidable, be
cause the operations concerned were
based on stock transactions. Upon
these representations the court re-
fused to appoint receiver pending
the determination of the status of each
petitioner.
Counsel for the petitioners were
confident that the move of Z rise
would serve only TO briefly delay an
inevitable receivership. 1t was adj
mitted, however, that Morse's best
fighting asset was time, furnishing
further opportunity to win over credi-
tors to his plans of rehabilitation.
Counsel for Morse claimed that the
great majority of creditors had been
convinced that their interests would
be served best by giving the financier
a chance 20 pull out unhampered.
Those engaged in the task Of learning
the exact condition of Morse's
finances figure that his liabilities are
about S4,000,0OO and his assets ap-
proximately $3,000,000, estimated at
the present market value of securities.

gust.
To Rear Admiral Thomas comes the
honor of commanding the fleet on its
visit to Puget sound and until the
honeward journey begins. He has

admiral, and these are to be filled by
the advancement of Captain Seaton
Schroeder and Captain Richard Vain
wright, who will command respective
ly the Third and Fourth squadrons Of
the fleet, and Rear Admiral Emory the

Not Sure of Truth OF Daughters
Charges Against Hitchcock.

New York, March 14.-Mrs. Mary
Won Hagen, mother of Ellen, the chief
complaining witness against Raymond
Hitchcock, was called to the stand
during the actors trial and admitted
that she had expressed doubt of the
truth of her daughters charges.
Counsel for Hitchcock was able to
place on record a letter in which the
witness sought the aid of the defen-
dant in securing the release of Ellen
from the custody of the Gerry society
where, Mrs. Won Hagen wrote, the girl
was being held as witness against
him. The letter continued:
Il have no wrong impression of the
visit of you and Ellen to Great Neck.
We have both lived there and we
know it is all right"
Following the reading of the letter,
Mrs Won Hagen, in reply to questions
by the defense, said she knew Mrs.
Hitchcock and had in substance told
Mrs. Hitchcock she did not believe
Mr.. Hitchcock had mistreated Helen
Elsie Voecks, who said that she
would be fourteen years old next July,
was a witness. Called by the prose
cution, she corroborated the story of
her visits to the actors home at Great
Neck, l.. l., as told by Ellen Won Ha-
gen. Ellen, cross-examined by the de-
tense, reaffirmed the substance of her
direct testimony.

PLEA FOR PURE FOOD.
Dr. Wiley Favors Union of House
wives for That Purpose.

Washington, March 14.-An urgent
plea for pure food in the household
was made by DR.. Harvey w. Wiley,
chief of the bureau Of chemistry OF
the department of agriculture, in an
address before the international con
gress on the welfare of the child
which is being held under the aus
pieces of the National Mothers con-
greSs.
DIR. Wiley emphasized the impor-
lance of the mothers of the country
being eternally vigilant as TO the
source of food products that come into
their homes to see that they are fresh,
uncontaminated, palatable and whole
some. The effect of such action, on
the part OF ihe, mothers, he said,
would be most salutary.
Continuing, DR.. Wiley said that the
best means of executing the pure food
law is in the household. IF every
mistress Of household in this cour-
try should demand pure foods he de.
clared, there would be little Difficult.
ty in courts, and manufacturers would
soon cease making things which the
mothers of this country would refuse
10 buy for use in their families" DR..
Wiley called attention TO the great
importance of purity in such articles
as butter, maple syrup, honey and
particularly of all dairy supplies.
Especially where there are children
in the house,, said he, 1.-The purity of
the milk cannot be sufficiently ac-
centuated. The danger to health and
actual threat tof death in the case of
infants that are fed impure milk is
one of the greatest curses of the
world"
Dr.. Wiley advocated the formation
of a union of the mistresses of house.
holds which, he said by singleness
of purpose, unity of action and power
OF organization would secure better
conformity to the law than any vigil
lance on the part OF the executors OF
the law would be able to accomplish.

sired; Long In Politics.

Baltimore March 1S.-United States
Senator William Pinckney Whyte died
at his home in this city.
Senator Whyte was taken i'll while
in Washington last Thursday and re-
turned here as soon as possible.
Erysipelas developed and his condi-
s ton became worse, although his ply
3 sicians gave out encouraging state
ments until Tuesday afternoon. The
senator suffered a sinking spell, but
recovered wonderfully and was con-
scious until the final CONFUSION that
ended in his death. The end was
peaceful and is said to have been pre-

since which time he had held nearly
every Office in the gift of the people
of his state. He was state comptrol-
Ter 1885 and ran for congress in

the following year was elected United
States senator. He became mayor of
Baltimore in 1881 and attorney gen.
eral of Maryland In 1887. In 1900 he
became city solicitor. The then gov
ernor, Edwin Warfield, appointed him
United States senator in 1906, to fill
the unexpired term of the late Sena-
tor Arthur P. German, and the current
legislature elected him Senator Cor
mans successor for the term ending
March 8, 1909. He was the last sur
vivor of the senators who voted
