merating the counts under which he
was indicted by Senator Joseph WI
Bristcw Of Kansas, In recent campaign
speeches dealing with the tariff on
rubber. In letter made public tonight,
denies the charges In their entirety.
incidentally he pays his respects III
caustic language to Senator Bristow
and what he terms a little group of
men" who entertain opinions similar
70 those of the Kansan. The letter
~ addressed to William B. Mckinley
or Illinois, chairman of the republican
congressional committee and was sent
70 the headquarters of the committee

and the denial of the charges made
against him by Senator Bristow are
based upon the fact that Senator Al
drich was called upon by republican
candidate for congress to furnish the
facts connected with the changes In
the recent tariff act. Referring to the
charges made by Senator Bristow as
absurd misstatements." Senator AL
drich said the persistent rciteration OF
them impelled him to make a full
statement. At the outset of his long
letter the senator divided the speeches
OF Mr.. Bristow into five parts, each
of which contained a specific charge.
He then dealt with them in order.
To Facilitate Labor.
In, hn
clared the increase from 80 to 35 per
cent on a small number of articles Of
manufactured rubber was for the pur-
pose OF making the tariffs uniform on
kindred articles and facilitating the /
labors of the custom officials. In that
connection he made public letter to
him from General Sharrets, "a member
OF the New York board Of general APP
pralscrs. asserting that the change
was advisable and had been agreed to
unanimously by the senate and house
committee and conferees on the tariff
bill at the earnest solicitation of the
tariff experts Of the treasury depart
ment.
Laying particular stress upon the
charge made by Senator Bristow, the
chairman OF the senate finance COM
mittee said that neither he nor any
member of his family ever has had
any pecuniary Interest as To whether
the rates on manufactures Of rubber
were 10, 36 or 40 per cent. or whether
crude rubber was on the free or duti-
able list Dealing then with the
