J. OGDEN ARMOUR DENIES
KNOWLEDGE OF JACKPOT,

Special to The Washington Herald.
Chicago, July ~. Ogden Armour
took occasion to-day to deny that he
knew anything about the election of Sem
ator Lorimer or the Jackpot bribery
in the Illinois legislature.
Mr.. Armour replied to the statement of
James Kelley, general manager and ed
itor OF the Chicago Tribune, that per-
haps Mr.. Armour, Arthur J. Meeker,
Edward Morris, Alfred Urion, Louis F.
Swift, and John A. Spoor might be able
to give some Information regarding the
$780, 900 Lorimer bribery fund.- by stating
that the first time he even suspected that
he was supposed to know something of
the Springfield bribery was when he saw
his name mentioned in the morning news
paper.
II know nothing about the alleged
Jackpot bribery at Springfield except
what have read from time to time in
the daily papers," said Mr.. Armour.
THE first 1 knew or had even heard
that I was a man who was supposed to
know something about the Lorimer case
or alleged Jackpot at Springfield was
when 1 saw my name in this mornings
paper. I was surprised"
Asked IL he was going to Washington
to testify II requested to do so, Mr..
Armour declined to answer.
Louis F. Swift authorized his private
secretary, r. c. McManus, to enter a
denial for him that he knew anything
of Lorimer corruption fund or of Jack

DISTRICT BILLS
IN CONGRESS
Favorable Action on Several
Measures Yesterday.

AS a result of ability finally to obtain a
quorum and get into action yesterday, the
House Committee on the District of
Columbia has agreed to report five Dis
trict measures fayorably to the House.
Through a little personal solicitation,
Chairman Johnson. on the third attempt
| this week to secure a a>quorum of his COM
mittee, was successful in mastering the
requisite eleven members.
Three of the bills considered and ap-
proved by the committee relate to in
surance concerns and undertakings in the
district. One of the measures requires
the insurance companies operating in the
District to report to the Superintendent
of Insurance each year the amount of its
liabilities and assets, the amount of busi-
ness transacted, and all other informa-
ton desired by the insurance department.
The committee approved the Senate bill
to define and classify health, accident,
and death benefit companies and as
sociatlons operating in the District of
Columbia, and requiring the suspension
of such concerns when their capital stock
is found to be impaired, and otherwise
bringing the companies to q safe and
uniform basis. Another Senate bill of a
similar nature regulating insurance con-
Germs was ordered reported by the COM
mittee.
The committee met the wishes of the
District Commissioners in agreeing to
recommended the passage of the Senate
bill whereby unexpended balances re-
naming in the appropriations for the
purchase of sites for the new NJ street
and Central High schools are to be trans
ferred to fund for the employment of
architectural services. Favorable action
also was taken on the measures provid-
ing for the preservation and protection
of the lands and waters comprising any
part of the Anacostia River, or Eastern
Branch. This bill, which recently received
favorable consideration of a subcommit-
tee of the District Committee, authorizes
the Attorney General to institute suits
against any ''squatters" on the lands men,
toned and against all persons who may
have or may pretend to have any right
or title to lands adjacent to the Ana
costa River, the Eastern Branch, and
Rock Creek.
The Attorney General also Is author

the title of the United States to any dis
puted lands within the limits of any
public reservation. park, road, or build

ly untouched. In spite of all explana-
tions, the fact remains that Mr.. Taft. in
opening the lands around Controller Bay
without notice to the public, has given
the interests behind Ryan an opportuni-
ty to acquire the key to the channel of
Controller Bay before the public knew
what was going on. The map which Is
part Of the Presidents message. sup
ported as 1t Is by the testimony of Mr..
vey. before the Congressional committee
now investigating this question. appears
to show that the mile and half of har-
Dor front taken up by Ryan together
with the tracts which the government re-
tains and on which 1t prohibits private
entry, does effectually control the valua-
BILE portion of the channel.
But whether the President Is right or
whether the map is right. and whoever
Ryan and his associates will be shown
TO represent, it is true. and will remain
true, that the lands about Controller
Bay should never have been let go. The
public will agree with Col. Roosevelt that
these terminal lands ought to have been
kept in the public hands.
TT is possible that the protests al
ready made may yet save the situation.
But in any case 1t Is unfortunate that
the friends Of conservation, in their ef-
forts to bring about the development Of
Alaska for the benefit Of the people,
are continually obliged to expend their
against the men who ought to
be the protectors Of the peoples prop
erty. 1t looks to me like unnecessary
duplication of work when we must first
fight the policeman before we can get
chance to stop the looting."

The Pure Milk Crusade.

New York's volunteer committee for
the investigation of the causes of ex-
cessive infant mortality has investi-
gated the traffic in unbottled milk in
small shops and its findings are appall-
ing, but it cannot be said that they sur
prise those familiar with lower East
Side conditions in that city. A similar
status no doubt obtains in the poorer
quarters of all large cities which have
not yet inaugurated a very rigid en-
torcement of sanitary regulations re-
garding the retailing of milk. OF I82
shops inspected, according to the CON-
mittee, not one contained milk in which
the number of bacteria per cubic cent?
meter was not many times greater than
its normal hygienic number. In most
cases the milk was improperly iced. had
been kept too long, and was exposed to
accumulations of filth and dust from the
hands and the clothing of those who
handled it for the consumers.
Discouraging as this state of affairs
may seem, the knowledge that great
care is needed in regard to the con-
sumption of uncooked milk is steadily
growing. There is a great diminution
of infant mortality in the city of New
York this year as compared with last
year, notwithstanding that the temper
ature in the present summer. thus far
has been much higher, and that ice has
been, for many families, unobtainable.
There is a movement on foot to have
law enacted in New York State to
make it illegal to sell milk in city shops
otherwise than in sealed bottles, to in
sure it from adulteraion or uncleanly
handling. Such a measure ought to be
adopted by every legislature in the
United States

SLAP AT ROOSEVELT SEEN
IN CONTROLLER BAY NOTE
Pointed Out That Forest Reserve Limitations Were
Known in Former Administration.

A lot OF interest has been aroused In
Congress over President Taft's reference
in his Controller Bay message to the ac-
ton of the Roosevelt administration In
regard to water front land on Orca Bay
and Valdez Arm in Alaska. This refer
ence by the President was regarded yes
terday as a reply by him to Col. Roose-
velt's criticism of the Controller Bay
withdrawal, contained in the Outlook of
July D. Mr.. Roosevelt In that editorial
article declared that the government
s-.ould have held this Controller Bay
land in perpetuity and that a mistake
had been made in opening 1t UP.
President Taft points out In his mes
sage that when the Chugach national
forest reserve was created by President
Roosevelt In July, 1907. on the recomrien-
dation of Forester Pinchot, there were
excepted from the forest the several
areas contained within boundaries formed
by circles described with radius OF one
mile each from the centers of ten small
towns or settlements.
Doubtless the rights of the public"
says the President, were thought to be
sufficiently safeguarded against monopoly
of harbor facilities under the limitations
OF the statute, which were the same then
as now"
Ginord Pinchot, however, declined to be
daunted by the Taft message. He issued
a statement, a part of which follows:
The Presidents defense of his course
In the Controller Bay affair shows how
hard 1t Is to make a good excuse for a
bad mistake.
1T leaves the root of the matter who'll
