He announced emphatically that he

is accused of an "unpardonable breach
of professional honor in connection

"For the malicious, villainous and un-
truthful attacks, of which this is sim

FORMER COUNCILMAN
SAYS HE TOOK BRIBE
Especial to The Herald

PASADENA. April 3.-George Bailey
of this city, who was a member of the
Pittsburg-Allegheny city council at the
time of the bribery scandals now being
unearthed. admitted last night to the
correspondent for The Herald that he
has confessed to District Attorney
Blakely of Allegheny county the ac-
ceptance of money during his term of
office in 1908. Mr.. Bailey said:
81 have confessed to District Attor-
ney Blakely that I accepted money in
the passing of the city bank depository
ordinance by the Pittsburg council in
1908. On one occasion l received $100
and at another time $S1.10 The money
was given to me by John Klein, a fell
low councilman, who acted as q go
between for the interests. 1 do not
know the persons who furnished him
with the money. I served in the Pitts
burg-Allegheny council from the early
part of 1905 to March 1, 1908, when
came west [ took the money in an
unguarded moment because it came
easy and I did not think of what it
meant. 1 could have had many more
dollars just as we'll, for money was
free and everybody was accepting it.
have felt guilty ever since, for
would not knowingly steal or accept a
bribe. 1 feel this will cause me to lose
my position here, and l have a wife
and five children to support and not
cent laid by, but l am not playing for
sympathy. I feel that it is my duty
to assist in exposing the corruption in
public office in Pittsburg. Honestly,
it was so corrupt that 1 did not go
near the council meetings the last few
months 1 was taere."

Sgg
Confession
Associated Pressl

PITTSBURG. April ALI of the
present and former councimen, known
as the big Five" have now told their
stories to the graft investigating grand
jury.
The Indictment of six banks. as cor
porations and other startling sensa-
tions are expected Monday as a. result.
The graft prosecution is now busily
engaged preparing cases for the trials
next week.
Charles Stewart today told the whole
truth to the grand jury; Hugh Fergu-
son made a complete statement before
the inquisitorial biody; William Brand
is known to have made a full confess
sion, and the bottom has finally fallen
out of the alleged grafters' defense.
The district attorney received a let
ter today from George r. Bailey, now
in Pasadena, former member of COM
mon councils, in which he says he
wishes to plead no defense to having
received bribes for his vote.
He declares he received a total of
$1S1.10 from John Klein for his vote
on ordinances covering street Vaca-
tions and city depository selections.
Bailey says he will come to Pittsburg
any time he is wanted by the district
attorney.
In the grand jury's recent present
ments two indictments were returned
against Bailey, but this was after the
letter to the district attorney had been
received.

FIX MINE WAGES.
|DLENEsS BRIEF
Differences of Coal Workers and
Operators to Be Patched Up
at Once Is Report

INDIANAPOLIS, April 2.--Advices
from bituminous coal fields received by
Thomas L. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers, when he re-
turned to organization headquarters
late today, satisfied him, he said, that
suspension of work in the mines pend
ing the signing of a new wage contract
between miners and operators, would
not be long continued.
II have not been talking strike in
Illinois," said Mr.. Lewis, land I am
not going to do anything of the sort In
WESTERN and central Pennsylvania next
week. Operators and miners in those
three districts, in Indiana, Iowa. Ohio,
western Kentucky and the southwest
will all be discussing means of settle
ment of the questions between them
next week. The matter will have to
work itself out, and it will work out
to the end that we will get the de-
manded wage increase of 655 per cent,
whether on work by the day or the ton.
"In Illinois the southwest and west
ern Pennsylvania, the conferences will
take longer in reaching conclusions
than in the other states, but 1 cannot
believe there will be final break.
"If operators of Pennsylvania and
Ohio feared that operators in the nom
union districts of West Virginia and
that neighborhood would undersell them
that objection to increasing the wages
of union miners has been swept away
by the news that in practically all Of
the non-union coal fields of West Vir-
ginia, Maryland and southern Pennsyl-
raise of the wages of their miners.
This Is also a plain object lesson that
the union man benefits the non-union
man."

were presented to the former president
bv Prof. Boggiano of the University of
Naples, who, in graceful speech, re-
called the colonel's parting injunction

nroblem for the United States was the
maintenance of the moral well being
and strength of the people.
Prof Boggiano said that this was
also the greatest problem for all coun-
tries.
Colonel Roosevelt, replying, appealed
TO the students to aspire to the highest
ideals. but warned them that their
aspirations must be coupled with prac-
tical methods.
Life is a struggle" he said. You
must not keep in the clouds. Your
ideals must be such as can be realized" !"
