Attorney General Prepared Statement
Defending His Connection With
Telephone Co., cut Cleveland
Did Not Give 1t Out.

The greatest embarrassment and
the chief annoyance to which Mr..
Cleveland was compelled to submit
after he became president in 1886
were due to the cry vigorous and ap-
parently plausible attempt to involve
his attorney general. Augustus H.
Garland of Arkansas, in some kind CT
pecuniary scandal in connection with
an attempt to organize an independent
telephone company based upon de-
vices said to have been invented by
another than Prof. Alexander Graham
Bell.
There was no man in the cabinet
for whose integrity and ability Mr..
Cleveland had a higher regard. There
were three men whom Cleveland took
from the United States senate to
serve in his first cabinet-Thomas F.
Bayard, as secretary of state; l.. @.
C. Lamar as secretary of the interior.
and Senator Garland, as attorney gen.
eral. Like Senator Vest Of Missouri.
Senator Garland had served in the
Confederate upper house before he
was elected to the United States sen
ate. Mr.. Cleveland was very fond of
listening to certain Of Mr.. Garland's
recol1ections of the days when he was
a member of the Confederate senate.
He did not know Mr.. Garland socially
at the time he asked him to enter his
cabinet, yet, within a few weeks after
they first met at the cabinet table.
he president gave to his attorney
general as large a measure Of his con-
fidence as he ever gave to any man,
with perhaps n or two exceptions.
Then of a sudden was exploded the
scandal-so-called-of the telephone
company. involving, apparently. the
attorney general. Mr.. Cleveland was
greatly distressed. His confidence in
Senator Garland WAS not shaken, but
he felt as ii there ought to be a COM
plete denial and one which could not
be questioned. since it was essential
that his administration should begin
without a faint of any scandal.
The matter was discussed at sew
eral cabinet meetings, Mr.. Garland in
sisting that his connection with the
company, such as it was, was abso-
lutely defensible. that there was 70
taipt attached to 1t.
But" said the president. there
should be some statement coming
from you which may put an enc to
these scandals. Will you prepare a
statement of that kind?"
* shall be very glad to do It," Mr..
Garland replied. 50
In some way it leaked out that the
attorney general was to prepare and
make public a statement completely
~vindicating himself. The days passed
and there appeared no statement from
Mr.. Garland. Splendid silence was
maintained. and many persons won
dered if Mr.. Garland was unable to

although not publicly. the statement
that his full name was Daniel Webster
Voorhees,. whereas his middle name
was Woolsey. However. in private
conversation with friends. and often
with his Republican associates in the
senate. he frequently INDUCED in hui
NOR that had more or less biting sar-
casm in it.
Of such humor was an incident
which occurred IN the treasury de
partme2t. There lived in indianapolis
at the time Voorhees, was United
States district attorney of Indiana. in
the Buchanan administration. a lawyer
who was thought by many persons to
give promise of a very brilliant ca
reer. He was a friend of Voorhees,.
Voorhees, used to say of him. however,
that he was one of the men who

on his uppers. as the term is. he
sought Voorhees,, who was a man of
very tender heart. saying:

position in Washington. am fiat on

that is that you put yourself into har-

been that you were never willing to
put on the harness. Every man who
gets along in the world has to do that:
| mean. put yourself under discipline.
Quit being happy-go-lucky. Put an end
to your philosophy of letting the NOR
row take care of ITSELF"
The friend did not take this advice
IN bad part. but promised to put on
harness. and Senator Voorhees, got
him a place in the treasury depart
ment that carried a salary Of S1.400 a
year.
Some months after the friend went
to work Voorhees, visited h depart
| ment upon some business n day
and while wandering through the low

little truck. upon which were loaded
canvass bags. evidently containing
