DENIES STORY.

/ Washington, June 29-Copies OF
contracts of j. f. McMurray, an Okla
homa attorney with the Choctaw and
I Chickasaw Indians are being prepared
by the interior department for the Sc
lect house committee charged with
making an investigation to determine
whether any member Cf the house was
interested in these contracts or wheth-
er efforts were made to use improper
influences to secure the passage by
con.ress of legislation instructing the
executive department to approve the
contracts.
The task of preparing copies of the
numerous contracts Is stipend us, but
it will probably be completed before
the committee holds its meeting in
Oklahoma next month. These docu-
ments will be supplied also to the spe-
cial senate committee which is to take
up the same subject.

The address was followed by the read
ing of the reports Of the committe on
grievances, taxation and the report Of
the comparative law bureau.
The section Of legal education. Of
which William o. Hart, OF Louisiana, is
chairman, also met yesterday and was
opened with Judge Harris annual adj
dress, followed by the report of the
committee on standard rules for adj
mission to the bar, read by Lucien FL.

Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey.
president Of Princeton University, de
Iiyered tonight the annual address be-
fore the association. His subject was
The Lawyer and the Community.
The only way to stop wrongdoing by
corporations is to pick out the guilty
individuals. even il the innocent suffer
at first.
An incident OF the morning session
was the charge that Joseph FL. Choate,
OF New York, former ambassador from
the United States to Great Britain, has
been guilty of the violation of the con
stitution OF the American Bar Associa-
ton in a failure to uphold the honor
OF the profession of the law and Il petit
ton that he be expelled from the Bar
Association were presented to the
AmericanBar Association yesterday and
referred to the committee on gricv-
anccS.
These charges were filed by
James r. Watts, of New York, through
his attorney, George w. Chamlee, Of
Chattanooga a member OF the Bar AS
socaition.
A petition that Mr.. Choate be ex-
PEELED from the American Bar Associa-
ton was offered.
Lawyers in attendance on the meet
ing Of the American Bar Association
were astonished that sensational
charges had been preferred against MI.
Choate. All agree that the charges
have been made at least twice be-
fore in meetings Of the associa-
ton, but most of the delegates
were in ignorance Of their presentation
at Yesterdays session.
There can be no action on the
charges within year, even should
they be taken up by the grievance com
mite, which in its present status is

Wall Street and MIR. Roosevelt.

New York, Sept. Wall street
views the western speeches OF Colonel
Roosevelt with emotions ranging from
disgust to anger. AS rule, however,
these feelings are suppressed. Many OF
the leaders in the financial world, who
frankly admit privately their hostility
toward the ex-president, hesitate to 60
on record publicly-apparcntly not
knowing what may happen. Few could
be found today who skare the opinion
expressed yesterday by Henry Clews in
his statement belittling the possible ef-
feet of the colonel't remarks on the
ground that they are merely the utter
ance OF private citizens.
In a statement issued today, j. ).
Bache & Company, the brokerage firm
that engineered James a. Patterns
cotton pool, said Roosevelt is a de-
stroyer, not up an upbuiIder. Roose-
welt endeavors to tear down by violent
criticism, but offers no sane remedy
or reasonable method of improvement
In whatever light it is locked at Mr.
Roosevelt's speeches out west will stir
up trouble. They are intended to
benefit Mr.. Roosevelt. His speeches
are those of demagogue, and are in
tended to and do arouse excitement
and resentment.
But what he says has no real pur-
pose or direction. BY his broadspread
TRADES against the business honesty Of
the nation he smirchcs all business.
The tendency would be to still further
reduce confidence here and abroad if
his words had weight, but abroad he is
already discredited and rldiculed.
The position he assumes politically is
an unfair one. Under cover he is attack
ing the administration. But he
shoulders on responsibility.
Thinking people are beginning to
discover him in his true light, and the
best thought must eventually control. i"
i shouldn't be surprised if Roose-
welt discovered and endorsed the Ten
Commandments before he got through"
said A. Barton Hepburn, present presl-
dent of Chase National Bank, comp
troller Of the currency under President
Harrison.
Roosevelt seems to have made the
remarkable discovery that there are
crooks in all stations OF life who should
be punished. l don't think his present
utterances will have any material ef-
| feet upon business.
