Washington. April 24.-The confiden-

and Commissioner Herbert Knox
Smith of the bureau of corporations
about n government antitrust suit
against the International Harvester
company. was sent today to the SEN
ate from the files of the department

Roosevelt to Mr.. Bonaparte. written
at oyster BAY on August 22. 1907, said
the colonel had had a conference with
George Perkins about the company's y
affairs and directed Mr.. Bonaparte not
to file the suit then. but to go over
the matter with Commissioner Smith
and Mr.. Perkins.

Smiths Objections.


A letter from Commissioner Smith
to the colonel on September 81 told
OF conferences with Mr.. Perkins and
stated Commissioner Smiths objections
70 prosecution at that time. The
commissioner wrote that he thought
the question of guilt or innocence was
merely technical and told of n con-
ference with Mr. Perkins on August "a.
Commissioner Smith wrote that Mr..
Perkins concluded with great empha-
sis that IF after all the endeavors of
this company and the other Morgan
interests to uphold the policies of the
administration and to adopt their
methods Of modern publicity" this
company now was going to be attacked
In purely technical case. the inter-
ests he represented were going to
fight"
Further on. In the same letter. Mr..
Smith wrote
While the administration has never
hesitated to grapple with any finan-
cial interests. no matter how great,
when II Is believed substantial wrong
Is being committed, nevertheless, IL IL n
very practical question whether 1t Is
well to throw away now the greatest
influence of the so-called Morgan in
terests which up to this time have
supported the administrations ad-
yanced policy. In both general principle
and the application thereof of their
specific interests an .dto place them
generally in opposition.
Il believe Mr.. Perkins statement,
that his interests would necessarily be
driven into opposition, was a sincere
one and in fact ] can hardly see how
those great interests can take any
other attitude should this prosecution
be started and the final adoption OF
this policy be made public
In another portion of the letter
Commissioner Smith reported Mr.
Perkins as having said substantially
that the Standard OH people in New
York were giving him the laugh fol

OLD TIME PRIZE FIGHT
Years Ago Today Bat tie Famed in Rring History Was
 Fought.

Eighty-eight years ago today. at Chichester, England, one of the most terrific heavyweight championship bat ties in ring history was fought. It was g. contest between Ireland and England, with John Langan, called "Irishman Jack", representing the Ould Sod, and Tom Spring, the cham pion. defending the pugilistic honors of John Bulls side. In the end Spring was the victor, but only af- ter seventy-six terrible rounds, last ing about two hours and a half. The title holder and the Irish champion had met once before. at Worcester, and Spring had been awarded the victory only after seventy-seven rounds Langan's showing was so good that the bugs decided he was entitled to a return match. Spring was at that time about thirty, while Langan was some four years his jun for. The Irishman had all the bet ter of it in the matters of skill and cleverness, but Spring was one of those human bulldogs who do not know when they are beaten. The ring for the fight was pitched in the middle of a field, and elevated so that the thousands who gathered round might see. The Englishman had an advantage of a dozen pounds in weight over his adversary. was taller and had a longer reach. The first few rounds were about even, both men indulging in a great deal of wrestling and rough-and- tumble. which were customary in those bare listed days. Back and forth the tides of battle swept, now one man being on top-often literally-and now the other. There was hardly 8 round that the pair did not go to the mat together.
 Despite the fierceness of the encoun- ter, neither man lost his temper, and they chaffed each other good natured- ly throughout the long contest By the thirtieth round the champions right hand was of little use to him for purposes of attack, and his tac- tics consisted of throwing his oppon- ent as often as possible. Several times Langan lighted on his head with such force as to temporarily stun him. Under Queensbery rules Spring would have been done for, but this was in 1924, and the champion had only conn menced to light In the seventy fifth, the game Irishn1an had. to be carried into the ring His seconds and the crowd urged him to quit, but he refused. Tn the seventys sixth Spring gave Langan hard fall and he toppled over, and was unable to get
