Cincinnati, O., Sept. Ex-senator
Foraker prepared a statement which
was made public Friday. replying to
the recent charges made by William
R. Hearst and President Roosevelt. In
addition he bitterly assails Hearst,
Taft, and the president, charging Taft
with consorting with Standard Oil
magnates himself and declaring that
President Roosevelt's actions indicate
a guilty conscience. In the opening
paragraph Mr.. Foraker declared that
the president showed bias in accept
ing as true all the charges. He de-
MED that he acted improperly in &C.
cepting employment from the Stand
ard Oil Company, said that there was
no secret about 1t and produced let
ters to prove that after the govern
ment began its attack upon the Stand.
ard Oil, he declined to accept re-
tainer from them. He charged that
Mr.. Hearst had other letters in addi-
ton to those which he gave out, and
that these other letters, if made public
at the same time, would have showed
how harmless was his connection with
the Standard people.
