As far as Mr. Roosevelt's connection
with the matter and the immunity al
legged to have been given by him to the
Steel corporation in Tennessee Coal

the acquisition of Tennessee Coal and
Iron by the corporation and discusses
the financial situation that then exist
cd, and especially the part which
Moore & Schley bore In 1t.
The government distinctly charges
that Judge Gary and Mr.. Frick at the
time of their famous White House III

scented the true situation and deceived
the president in several particulars. 1t
charges that they informed him that
little benefit would come to the Steel

as the benefit was very material. and
that Mr.. Roosevelt was misled as to
the true condition OF the arm Of Moore

COUNSEL OF THE GOVERNMENT.

Of the United States in 1S95-97. counsel
before the Alaskan boundary tribunal,
federal solicitor in 1S99-19O1 and gen.
eral counsel Of the Illinois Central.
While he was in the cabinet Mr..
Dickinson was regarded rs one Of the
strongest Of the legal advisers Of the
president. He was retained by At
torney General Wickersham two
months ago. He prepared the petition
fled in the circuit court in the steel

obtained by the department of justice
in the investigation of the Steel cor
poration which it has had under way
for long time, together with material
brought out by the select committee Of
the house which has special investi-

way.
Whether Mr.. Wickersham intends to
take an active part in the prosecution
Of this case or not remains to be seen.

Dickinson meant that the ex-secretary
of war would play the chief part il
