Gus speech in the house in connection

There has been a great deal of talk

deal of talk that has run over several
years." Mr.. Cannon said
THE committee on ways and means

committee by unanimous vote, as
am informed, postponed action for that
session of congress and did not even
hold hearing on it.
Il was speaker, they unloaded it on
me- We had stormy time. News
paper publishers, through their repre-
sentatives, one of whom | shall name
Herman Ridder, demanded that |
should do what never had been done,
that I should recognize Mr.. Williams
or somebody else to rise in his place
and move to discharge the committee
from further consideration of that bill,
which they had postponed for that SEES
sion and by the time the next session
would come the presidential election
would be over"
Mr.. Cannon said he replied that he
just to his party.
What happened?" he continued.
II was informed in the presence of
witnesses that if the Republican party
did not promptly put print paper upon
the free list that a. great and good
man who headed the publishers asso-
ciation Herman Ridder, would support
Mr.. Bryan for the presidency and con-
tribute 10000 to his election.

Mr.. Cannon, last fall, introduced a
bill creating special committee to in
vestigate the print paper question.
Il appointed that committee and Mr.
Mann headed it, The criticism from
one end of the country to the other
by resolutions passed by the Associat
ed Press, by denunciations in the news
papers, was wholly against me for that
action. The committee made an hon
est investigation. They found diff
ference of 81 ton between the cost OF
production in Canada and in the Unit
ed States. 1t was an unanimous re
port, the Democrats on the committee
concurring."
Mr.. Cannon said the house adopted
the report. 1t went to the senate

ROBIN MAY IMPLICATE
OTHERS IN BANK FAILURES
81 AssoeIated Press.

New York, March 2.-Following his
plea of guilty to the charge of steal
ing $27,o0G from the Washington Saw
ings Bank just after q jury had been
selected for his trial, Joseph G. Robin
has been in conference for the greater
part Of the last twenty-four hours
with Assistant District Attorney
Clark. 1t is believed the assistant
prosecutor was seeking information
concerning the other financial institu-
tons crippled by Robins operations
in search of any accomplices whom the
fallen banker might have had.
The fact that Mr.. Clark has had
particular charge of the investigation
of the affairs of the Carnegie Trust
Company, which was closed Feb. 1
by order of the state bank examiner,
leads to the belief that his confer
ences with Robin have to do with the
affairs of that company.
Although Robin declared in court
yesterday that he was not and never
had been insane, the alienists who ex-
arnined him fortnight ago find in this
turn of the case only another proof
that he is a paranoiac. According to
DR.. Austin Flint. one Of the alienists
who examined Robin. the man stoutly
denied at all their examinations from
Dec. 81 to Feb. % that he was in
sane.
