BRYAN TO ROOSEVELT
Points Bis Record 10 Show He Is Not Controlled By ibe
 Trusts.

Rock Island, III, Sept 3O.-" have lived in vain if your accusations have lost me single friend" said William J. Bryan in letter addressed to President Roosevelt, replying to that of President Roosevelt written Sun- day last.
 MT Bryan points to his record and declares that it is sufficient answer to the insinuations of the chief execu- tive that he is in sympathy with, or controlled by, the trusts.
 Reverting to the charges against Governor Haskell, MT Bryan says that the president, in response to his request, did not deign to suggest a tribunal which could determine those charges but instead proceeded to pass judgment upon him, and he informs the president that the occupant of that high office cannot deny to the humblest citizen the right to protect his reputation and vindicate his name in the courts.
 Taking up the presidents assertion that certain trust magnates, fearing prosecution under MT Taft, will sup port the democratic candidate, MT Bryan charges that the president worded his statement in such a way as to demand the support of all the trust magnates land yet put it on the ground that they are supporting your party for patriotic reasons, rather than for the promotion of selfish interest"
 Such an argument, he contends, is ingenious but not sound. In proof of the fact that he would not be con- trolled by the trusts, MT Bryan says that if elected he will enforce the an- ti-trust laws, mot spasmodically and intermittently, but persistently and consistently"
 MT Bryan in dealing with the dem ocratic campaign fund of 1896, as compared with the republican cam paign fund of 1904, charges that the president pays more attention to the mote than to the beam," and asserts that in 1904 the republicans used in one state alone fund almost as large as the entire sum the democratic par ty had in its control.
 Chicago, Sept 30.-Josephus Dan- iels, chairman of the democratic press committee, made public let ter to-day written to Attorney Gen eral Bonaparte, at the instance of the democratic national committee, in which he asks the attorney-general how many of the 2S7 so called trusts of the country was proceeded against by the government and how many more are on file for later action.
