Editor Makes Statement.
PHILADELPHIA. March An ref.
erence TO the Roosevelt letter. r. A
Van ~Valkenburg. editor and president
OF the NSth American. made the fol-
lowing statement tonight:
OF course, the letter was not made
pubic by me. When Colonel Roose-
velt attended the Cardinal Gibbons
celebration In Baltimore last summer
the Associated Press sent out an in.
spired statement to the effect that
Colonel Roosevelt had positiveIy
pledged his support 20 Mr.. Taft for a
denomination. As a matter OF rou.
tine news, we printed this dispatch,
although we had personal knowledge
that Colonel Roosevelt's attitude must
have been misrepresented.
Much was made by the Taft mana.
gers OF the supposed Endorsement,
and even his denial was met by the
rejoinder that his assurance had been
given privately and he was merely de
nying IL for public effect.
This led to my correspondence
with him. which eliminated in the
letter OF June 81. II will be observed
that he denies the story. and asks
thN copies OF his letter be sen "a
the directors OF the Associated Press
for their information. His purpose
was that they should have an oficiaI
denial on record from Which they
would issue a formal withdrawal oi
the yarn. I sent copies 10 Mr.. Nc
CATCHY. requesting that he furnish
one 10 Mr.. Noyes. but no denial OF
the story " was made by the As
ISOLATED Press.

conversation with Colonel Roosevelt

repeatedly and e~mphatcaliy urKina
