Taft Absent.

The records OF the war department
were then introduced by President Taft
TO show that In the fall of 1907 during
the full period of the correspondence he
was absent from the country. Colonel
Roosevelt then shifted his ground and
said that President Taft approved the
suppression OF the suit after his return
in January. 1908.
This last charge is disproved by the
record which shows that on November Z,
1907 (Mr Taft was out of the country
from early in September until late In
December 1900, Herbert Knox Smith,
the commissioner of tho bureau of cor
porations. telephoned Mr.. Perkins, at the
presidents order that the president took
the view that the bureaus investigation
should come before the suit. Why. then,
would the matter be brought before the
