SENATOR BAILEY's COMMENT.
Declares the Sibley Letter Refutes
Charges Made Against Him.

GAINESVILLE, Tex, September "a
When an Associated Press correspondent
asked Senator Bailey what reply. If any,
he desired to make as to what Mr..
Hearst said regarding him in his Mem
phs speech Saturday night, Senator
Bailey dictated the following:
Assuming that the Sibley letter which
Mr.. Hearst read is genuine and that I
am the Senator B. to whom it refers,
am very glad that 1t has been given to
the public. for it completely refutes a
charge which my enemies have been
making against me in this state for the
last two years They have been claim
ing that l am an attorney for the Stand
ard Oil Company. and insinuating that 1
have been friendly to 1t in matters Of
legislation. This letter distinctly shows
that 1 am not their attorney, and 1t also
distinctly shows that my position could
not be changed to suit the interest of
the Standard OIL Company. This letter,
which is claimed to have been written
by Mr.. Sfbley, suggests that he might
arrange for Mr.. Archbold to talk to me,
and Mr.. Archbold's reply, as read by Mr.
Hearst, says that he would like to talk
to me. AS a matter of fact, Mr.. Sibley
never made to me the remotest sugges-
ton OF a conference with Mr.. Archbold,
and / never spoke to Mr.. ArchbOld in my
life about matters pending in Congress
or any other Legislative body"

GOT NO MONEY FROM 1AGGART
CHAIRMAN MACK DENIES THAT
HE RECEIVED 100000.
Sends Telegram to the President
Contradicting Assertions Con-
tanned in a Reported Talk.

NEW YORK, September 22.-Norman E.
Mack, chairman of the democratic ma
tional committee, addressed a telegram
to President Roosevelt today in which he
denied fatty statements contained In a
reported interview between Timothy L..
Woodruff. chairman of the republican
state committee. and President Roosevelt.
which were printed in a local paper this
morning. Chairman Mack's telegram to
the President is as follows:
II notice in the New York Tribune Of
this morning that you are quoted by Tim
othy l.. Woodruff. chairman Of the repub-
lican state committee. in the following
interview. which Mr.. Woodruff gave out
from Oyster Bay:
Incidentally, the President remarked
that he considered 1t significant that $780,
900 had been found in the treasury of the
democratic party after Judge Parker had
declared throughout the last national
campaign that the party's treasury was
receiving nothing from corporations; and
further, because ii was announced at the
time of the election that the treasury
was empty. The President said that he
thought it looked queer that such a large
sum of money should turn up after Mr..
Haskell was appointed treasurer of the
democratic national committee.
If you are quoted correctly no doubt
you have in mind the publication in the
New York American recently that l. as
chairman of the democratic national COM
mittee, received $3OO.OOO from former
Chairman Taggart, which was said to be
left over from the 1901 campaign. This,
at that time, was emphatically denied
when brought to my attention. 1 desire
to say to you now that there is not a
word of truth in this statement l have
not received one cent from Chairman
Taggart or any one else connected with
the last campaign: neither has any one
connected with the democratic national
committee. I am wiring you this direct
as / desire to correct what seems to be
an erroneous impression in your mind
Chairman Mack said he hoped to re-
ceive reply from the President some
time today. His telegram to the Presi-
dent was directed to Oyster Bay.

which We are to hear during the sessions
OF the congress will prove to be Of
special value to the citizens of Wash

berculos1s which the Importance Of the
subject calls for.
THE city of Washington has not been
In the front rank heretofore but good
commencement has been made. We have
an active committee on the prevention of
consumption with q paid secretary who
gives her entire time to the work: we
are supporting dispenSary and help to
support two visiting nurses who devote
themselves especially to the care Of cases
or consumption: we have organized a
day class and with the assistance of the
Red Cross Society a day camp has been
established in connection with the new
tuberculosis hospital. This hospital has
recently been completed and is considered
a model of it's kind. sanitarium has
been established in the country twenty
miles from Washington for the out
door treatment of incipient cases.
The Citizens Relief Association has for
several years provided funds for the pur-
chase of milk and eggs for INDECENT con-
sumptives. Numerous lectures have been
given in schools. churches, etc, to aid in
the education of all classes OF our citi-
zens upon everything relating to cure and
prevention. Regulations have been made
by the Commissioners of the District to
prevent splitting upon sidewalks and in
public conveyances, to insure the purity
of the milk supply, etc. Finally Congress
has enacted a law requiring the regis
tration by the health officer of all cases of
consumption occurring in the District.

"As in all matters of legislation the en-
forcement of regulations and laws de-
Ponds largely upon an enlightened public
opinion. and thus we come back to edu-
cation as the most important agent in

eradication of this scourge Of mankind. l

tries OF the world. In the United States
the number of deaths from consumption
every year exceeds the number of those
soldiers of the Union armies who died
from wounds received in battle during
the entire period of the civil war.
The annual mortality from this dis
ease is estimated to be not less than
100000. This exceeds the total NOR
tality from yellow fever in the United
States for period of one hundred
years.
THE mortality from this disease in
the great epidemic of 1878, which para
caused great apprehension throughout
the country, was 1894. or considerably
less than one-twelfth of our annual
mortality from tuberculosis. The arrival
Of a cholera ship in New York harbor,
or the occurrence Of few cases Of bu
bonic plague in San Francisco. leads to
the publication Of articles with senSa-
tfonal headlines in all the newspapers in
the country, and single case of lep-
rosy has recently occupied the atten-
ton of the local press in this city to an
extent which scarcely seems to be jus
titled when we consider that such a case
is less dangerous to the community than
any one of the many cases OF pulmonary
tuberculosis which are constantly going
about among us. In the city of Wash
fngton our annual mortality from tuber-
culosis exceeds the number Of those who
died from battle wounds during the
I
700 and 500.
I'm view of these facts it is no won
der that intelligent people in all parts
Of the world are becoming interested in
the crusade against the great white
plague The apathy which formerly ex-
listed everywhere. and still exists In
many parts Of this country. has no doubt
been largely due to ignorance with ref
erence to the cause Of this disease and
mistaken ideas as to its mode Of extern
sion. But since the demonstration, in
1880, by Robert Koch, that 1t is due to q
specific bacillus. and that the presence
Of this bacillus Is absolutely essential
for the development OF the disease, it
has become apparent that tuberculosis
Is a preventable disease, and 1t is easy
to point out the means of prevention To
secure the enforcement Of the measures
necessary to accomplish this result is.
however. by no means an easy task.
Requires United Efforts.
1T will require the united efforts of
sanitarians. physicians. social workers,
church organizations. fraternal associa-
lions. teachers and the educated classes
generally
THE educational value of these ex-
hibits has been repeatedly demonstrated
in this country and abroad, and now the
citizens of Washington and all those
who come to the international congress
on tuberculosis will have an opportunity
to see the most extensive and most in
structive exhibit which has ever been
assembled In one place. The speaker

THE executive government Of the Dis
trict of Columbia is glad to welcome you
to the national Capital. There is no
place more appropriate for the meeting
of the tuberculosis congress, and nowhere
will greater interest be taken in its pro-
ceedngs or in the exhibit which you open
tonight.
I'VE rejoice with you in every triumph
over the common enemy which you have
to report, and in every weapon which
has helped to victory. We especially
value the demonstrations of what pure
air and sunlight have done In fighting
the great white plague We are glad
that the District Of Columbia can show
you the latest and We believe the best
type of municipal tuberculosis hospital.

instruction of the people and in the elm

men and women who have given their
time and money in this great cause.
They exemplify the public spirit of
the citizens of the national Capital not
excelled anywhere else in the world. They
have an especial interest in the coming
of the notable men and women who will

welcome and in the hope that your visit
here may be as pleasant to you as 1t is

I'VE have assembled this evening to

history of human progress. During the
past century man has achieved a par
tial victory, at least. over several OF
the infectious diseases which formerly
were the principal causes of premature
death, and in most civilized countries
mortality rates have been reduced to
nearly one-half of the prevailing rates
q century or two ago. Smallpox, chol-
era. bubonic plague and yellow fever
have to a great extent lost their terrors
for countries having an intelligent pop
