TAFT's REPLY
DOESN'T EXPLAIN
Information Furnished Through SEQ
rotary Of Interior Fails To Show
Reason for Order Giving Away
Controller Bay.
BY OLSON GARDNER.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., April 20
Senator LAFollette does not regard
the answer OF President Taft. made
through the secretary OF the interior
Thursday, as In any way explaining
the secret order OF Oct. %, giving TO
the Neutrality-suspicious. syndicate the
control OF the Cunningham coal fields.
The Information furnished Is en-
tirely inadequate. The filings which
are reported by the president are only
those which are OF record at Juneau
and do not include the mineral, home
stead, oil and coal locations which
must be filed with the land commits
sioner and recorder at Katalla. The
latter Office Is 100 miles from Cordova.
with no telegraphic communication
short OF Cordova and boat connection
at infrequent intervals about to begin.
Katalla Is 600 miles from juneau.
There are also homestead and other
locations made previous TO Oct. 2S
which should be included In any re.
port which shows the present control
OF the shore OF Controller bay. AS the
facts now stand Senator LaFollette
says there Is no defense of the secret
order OF Oct. 2S and no explanation as
TO the undoubted control exercised by
the Morgan-Guggenhe railroad syn.
dictate OF this outlet for the Alaskan
coal fields.
The report presented by Fisher veri-
fies suspicion In that II shows that a
soldiers scrip was fled by brother
OF Dick Ryan, who lobbied the secret
Taft order and the Guggenheim bill
through congress. The report shows
N hlinv also nv Cchaurar who aided
Ryan In the Washington work.
