ROOSEVELT SAYS
he AvERTED PANIC
Asserts He Did Duty in Permit
ting Tennessee Deal.
MAKES A TALK ON TRUSTS
Colonel Before steel Committee Ad-
vocates Strong Measures, Such as
Germany Used With
Potash Industry.

New York.-Without subpoena and
entirely voluntarily, Col Theodore
Roosevelt appeared before the COM
1hittee of the house of representa-
tives which is making an inquiry
into the United States Steel corpora
ton and told how he had averted a
panic in 1907 by giving his consent
to the absorption of the Tennessee
Coal and Iron company by the steel
corporation.
The former chief executives action
IN submitting to congressional re-
view Of acts of his own administra-
ton was almost unprecedented in the
history of the United States.
First and foremost he placed upon
himself responsibility for approving
the absorption to save perilous
financial disaster in Wall street, and
condemned any man who would be
so weak as not to act as he did In
did, he said, would have been Grim
inal
The chapter he contributed not only
dealt with his part in the momentous
events of that threatening time, but
he gave the committee some interest
ing opinions on the trust question that
doomed up In their import even more
than his recital of facts in the Ten
nessee Coal and Iron transaction.
After declaring that his object in
approving the sale of the Tennessee
company was to restore confidence
the former president, in response to
inquiries by Representative Littleton
relating to the case as presented to
him by Judge Gary and II. c. Prick
at the memorable White House con-
ference in November, 1907. said:
The situation was so critical that
it was liable to break at any moment
until the action was taken, and the
instant it was taken an enormous i'm
provement for the better occurred,
and, as said in the poem of Mr.. Emer-
son, with which you all are so well
acquainted:
:" If the red slayer thinks he Stays,
Or if the slain thinks he is slain. 1T
matters not
81 should have proved an unworthy
public officer, if l had not done as l
did" he continued.
IF l had not acted at once in that
extraordinary crisis I should have
been mere title. In every such crisis
the temptation to inde4ision. to non
action. always exists. There is al
ways excuse for non-action. If a man
is worth his salt he will give people
in trouble the benefit Of the doubt
and act as the situation demands if
the law Is not violated.
Every step l took was as open as
the day"
Then Mr.. Roosevelt launched into a
general discussion with Chairman
Stanley of The general trust question,
saying that the United States had
something to learn from Germany,

Asks That Moral Influence Be
Used On Senators.
FEARS FOES OF TREATIES
President Declares There Is No Dan
ger 80 Senate's Constitutional
PriviIeges-Gives Roosevelt
High Praise.

Mountain Lake Park, Md.-Presi-
dent Taft travelled 400 miles through
Maryland and West Virginia by
special train to appeal to the people
of the United States to use their moral
influence to have the senate ratify the
British and French arbitration trea-
ties and the treaties with Nicaragua
and Honduras.
His appeal was made direct to the
Mountain Lake Park Chautauqua of
the Methodist Episcopal church, but
In it the president included the rest
of the nation as we'll.
81 observe" said the president, that
there is some suggestion that by rati-
flying this treaty, the senate may in
some way abdicate it's function of
treaty making. l confess myself to
being unable to perceive the logic in
any such point.
ITO have these treaties not ratified
by the senate Of the United States or
to have any hesitation and discussion
of serious character in respect to
them would halt the movement toward
general peace, which has made sub
stantial advance in the last ten years.
To secure the ratification of the treat
les therefore, appeal must be made to
the moral sense of the nation and
! while that is not entirely in the keep
ing of the churches, certainly they
may exert a powerful influence in the
promotion of any effective instru-
mentality to secure permanent peace.
Leaving the arbitration treaties be-
hind, the president asked for the same
| sort of popular support of the treaties
with Honduras and Nicaragua.
There is no issue before the senate
so acute in respect to the cause OF
peace as the confirmation of these
Central American treaties" said the
president. while l admit the greater
importance of universal treaties of ar
bitration, in the long run and as affect
ing the world at large, yet in respect
of American interests, in respect OF
peace in this hemisphere, they are
not equal in Importance to the con-
firmation Of these Central American
treaties"
In making his plea for the Central
American conventions, the president
highly praised former President Roose-
welt. He spoke of the tendency of the
United States to extend their helping
hand to less powerful people, and in
stanced Mr.. RoOsevelt's Intervention
in Cuba. That tendency was evidenced
also, he said, "by the wonderfully sue
cessful intervention by Theodore
Roosevelt as president of the United
States in securing peace between Rus
STA and Japan"

SENATOR w. P. FRYE DEAD
Veteran Maine Statesman Answers
Summons After Long IlIness-ln
u. S. Senate Thirty Years.

Lewiston, Me.-United States SEN
Ator William Pierce Frye, who was
compelled by poor health to resign
his position as president pro TEN of
the senate at the beginning of the
special session of congress, died here,
at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Helen White.
Death came suddenly to the aged
senator. He suffered a general
breakdown at the opening of con-
gress, but his condition was not
considered critical until few days
ago.
William P. Frye was born in Lewis
ton on Sept. 2, 1880. He graduated
at BoWdOin college in 1850, studied
law, was mayor and member of the
legislature and first elected to con-
gross in 1870. He succeeded James
&. Blaine as senator in 1881 and has
served continuously ever since.
The death of Senator Frye means
a loss of one senator to the republic

TOGO MAKES INITIAL TALK.
Thanks Country for Hospitality in Adj
dress Before Press Club.

Washingtcn.-A brief speech, the
first he has made since his stay
in this country, was made by Admiral
Count Togo before the National Press
club of Washington at the close of a
strenuous days program.
The admiral spoke in Japanese, his
remarks being interpreted by Lieuten-
ant Commander Taniguchi, his naval
aid. He said
Since my arrival in this country
the president of this great republic
has received me with the greatest hon.
or and hospitality, your government
has extended to me innumerable cour-
tesies and your fellow citizens have
given me the most hearty welcome.
All these, l dare say, are more than
| am entitled to, and l take them as
meant toward my august sovereign
and for his subjects"

LARGER HOUSE BILL is PASSED
Measure Adding ~ Representatives to
the Roll Is Adopted.

Washington. Bearing an in
itiative and referendum foature to
safeguard against gerrymandering in
a number of states, the congressional
reapportiOnment bill was passed by
the senate. There was not even the
formality of a roll call on the final
vote.
The measure gives the house 433
members, an increase Of AZ over the
present representation. This does not
include the new members which will
be sent from Arizona and New Mexico.
The bill will go Immediately to the
house, where it originated, and, it is
expected, will be accepted in its pres
ent form and sent to the president.
No state loses, and many gain, in the
number of representatives.
The measure will become effective
in less than two years. Its passage
was largely assured by a sentiment of
concession to the house of it's right to
regulate it's own organization affairs.
The Democratic cotton bill cutting an
average of 81 per cent. from the pres
ent duty passed the house, all the
Democrats and thirty insurgents vot-
ing for 1t. The total vote was 2O2 to
81.
The bill cuts the average tariff on
cotton manufactured goods from AZ to
81 per cent ad valorem, 81 per cent
reduction In duty that the Democratic
leaders estimate to reduce revenue
by about $3,000,000.

FAIL TO SHAKE WHITES STORY.
Lorimer Counsel Subjects Ex-Leglsla-
tor to Sharp Examination.

Washington. - The sharpest kind
of cross-examination by counsel for
Senator Lorimer before the COM
mittee which is investigating Mr.. Lori
mer's election, failed to shake in any
degree the story of Charles A. White,
former member of the Illinois legisla-
ture whose admission that he was
bribed to vote for Lorimer has
brought forth several other confes-
sions from his former colleagues.
White frankly admitted that in his
letters to Lee O'Neill Browne, asking
for money, and to Lorimer, asking for
aid In getting a position, he made
many statements which were pure
and simple lies"
According to his mistaken testi-
mony. these statements were deliber'
ate, and intended for part in the
grand expose.
81 thought the people ought to
know the hypocrisy and trickery that
goes on in the legislature" he said.

LEGAL KIDNAPPING IS
CONDEMNED IN REPORT
Senate Select Committee Finds Abuse
of Rights and Urges Congress to
Check Hasty Extraditions.

Washington.-The process of legal
kidnapping" as in the labor cases of
Meyer, Haywood and Mcnamara, was
condemned in report presented by
the senate select committee appointed
to investigate the third degree methods
of the police authorities of the United
States. Senator Borah presented the
report on behalf of the committee.
The committee said the practice OF
hurrying accused men from one state
to another without giving them an op-
portunity to be heard should be pre-
vented by prohibiting extradition un-
til after a lapse of certain number
of days or by some other effective
plan.
The only other recommendation was
the cessation of Jury shadowing' by
the secret service men. The inquiry
did not extend to the police methods
of the state or cities, the committee
believing it's jurisdiction did not in
clude them.
The condemnation of jury shadow
ing was based upon the committees
discovery that in important cases the
department of justice authorized sur,
veillance of jurymen to prevent theil
being tempered with. The committee
in this final report condemned the
practice of the government, even
though it be by the defense. because
it IS liable to great abuse"
The committees comment on irreg'
ular extraditions evidently was based
on the course pursued in removing
Meyer and Haywood from Colorado tc
Idaho on the charge of numbering
Governor Steunenberg and in getting
Mcnamara from Indiana on the
charge of destroying the Los Angeles
Times building, but neither instance
is specifically mentioned. They were
spoken of as cases in which mo op'
portunity was offered to test the le'
gality of the proceedings or the juris'
diction of the court granting judg
ment."

THREE NATIONS ARE
IN LINE FOR PEACE
limited States. France and Britain
sign Treaties-Paris is FIRST
to Approve.

washington. - Three of the great
world powers have taken long
stride toward the goal OF universal
peace. Arbitration treaties Dindlng
the United States and Great Britain
and France. respectively, were signed
at the White House in Washington IN
the presence of President Taft and a.
notable gathering of officials and at
the ministry of foreign affalrs IN
Paris.
Secretary of State Knox signed the
two treaties in behalf of the United
States. James Bryce, the British am
bassador affixed his signature In be-
half of Great Britain, thus completing
the Anglo-American pact, with the ex-
ception of ratification by the senate.
The French treaty was signed In
duplicate in Paris six hours earlier
by J. ]. Jusserand, ambassador to the
United States.
AS soon as the copies of the two
treaties had been signed President
Taft affixed his signature to two
measures for transmittal to the senate.
The general features of the new
treaties are:
All differences internationally justi-
ciable shall be submitted to The Hague,
unless by special agreement some 9TH
er tribunal is created or selected.
Differences that either country
thinks are not justiciable shall be re-
ferred to a commission of inquiry, COM
posed of nationals of the two govern
ments, empowered to make recon-
mendations for their settlement.
Should the commission decide that the
dispute should be arbitrated. such de-
cision will be binding.
Before arbitration is resorted to,
even in cases where both countries
agree that the difference Is suscep-
tible of arbitration, the commission OF
inquiry shall investigate the dispute
with view of recommending a settle.
ment without arbitration.
The commission, at request Of either
government, will delay its findings one
year to give an opportunity for diplo
matte settlement.

He was born on a farm at Turf
Junction, now West Chicago, in 1S
His parents were poor, but the DO
good business instinct deyslopa
early. His first business enterprise
was the conducting Of a hardware;
store, which brought him into &C.
quaintance with Col. Isaac Elwoods
the inventor of barbed wire, whose
employ he later entered. Seeing the
great future of that product, Gates
started a barbed wire factory of his
own and forced Elwood to go into
partnership with him. Other barbed
wire mills sprang up and as fast as
they sprang up Gates bought them.
This was the start of the $90,000,000
American Steel e Wire Co., now a
part of the steel corporation.
For years Gates was heavy plum
ger in Wall street until manipula-
tions by the Morgan interests nearly
ruined him in 1907 Then he turned
his attention to the Texas, oil fields
and had built up another fortune,
estimated to be between $25, 100000
