CALLED HALT ON
HARVESTER SUIT
Roosevelt and Smith Letters Are
Sent to Senate.
NO IMMUNITY is OFFERED
Letters Show Commissioner of Cor
porations Objected to Prosecution
of International Company in
1907 as moral injustice"

Washington. April z6.-The depart
ment of justice sent to the senate
Wednesday in response to a resolution
copies of the letters which passed be-
tween President Roosevelt, Attorney
General Bonaparte and Commissioner
OF Corporations Herbert Knox Smith
concerning the 1907 antitrust suit
against the International Harvester
corporation.
In all there were six letters trans
mttted, one written by Colonel Roose-
welt to former Attorney General Bona
parte, two by William Loeb, Jr., the
presidents secretary, to MIR. Bona
parte, one by Oscar Straus, secretary
of the department Of commerce and
labor, and two by Herbert Knox Smith.
commissioner Of corporations
In Mr.. Rooseyelt's letter, dated Au-
gust p, 1907, he tells of visit paid
to him by George w Perkins, at the
time chairman Of the finance commit
tee Of the Harvester company, who
had urged that before the company is
exposed to the certain loss and dam
age that the mere institution of a suit
would entail" Commissioner Of Cor
porations Smith should be required, in
accordance with the terms of a SEN
ate resolution, to finish an investiga-
ton he had begun of the company's
affairs
Mr.. Roosevelt was careful to state
that Mr.. Perkins explicitly states to
me that there would be no intention
to plead the examination by the de-
partment Of commerce and labor as
comforting any immunity from proceed
ings by the department of justice He
directed the attorney general to see
Mr.. Perkins and Commissioner Smith
and report to him thereon. He closed
the letter with the direction:
please do not file the suit until
hear from you"
In Mr.. Smiths communication he
said in order to state the case salts
factOrily to himself he had to be very
frank in giving his views. Mr.. Smith
objected to the proposed action of
the department of justice for the pros
ecution of the Harvester company"
The company simply desired, &C
| cording to Mr.. Smith, that the bureau
of corporations be allowed to conclude
its investigation, and If any substan-
tial violation of the law shall be dis
/ covered by such investigation the com
pany is perfectly willing to stand the
! prosecution
Hope of dissolving the $4,000, 900
International Harvester company with
out a fight in the courts has been
practically abandoned. A suit against
the corporation under the Sherman
antitrust law probably will be filed
at Chicago about the middle of next
week.

HOLDS TEACHERS
PAYMENTS VALID
Insurance Fund Law Upheld by
Attorney General.
SIMILAR CASES ARE CITED
Police and Firemen Pensions peclar-
ed Constitutional, and Same Rea-
soning Applies to teachers Pen
sion, Says Bancroft.

Madison.-ChaQter 323 of the laws
of 1911, known as the teachers in
surance and retirement fund law, is
held constitutional in an opinion by
Attorney General Bancroft in re-
Spouse to an inquiry by State Treas
urer Dahl
Treasurer Dahl is prompted to
make the inquiry by the fact that
warrants are coming to him for pay
ment under the provisions of the law.
The statute creates a teachers in
surance and retirement fund to be
made up of so-calIed assessments
upon the salaries of all teachers com
ing within the provisions Of the act,
and of an amount set aside annually
from the so-ealled seven-teRths mill
tax equal to 10 cents for each per-
son of school age in the state. These
assessments are not paid ty the
teachers, but are retained from their
salaries by the school board. The
fund thus created is used for pay
ing certain annuities or pensions to
retired teachers.
Whether this law in fact results in
the taking of private property with
out compensation or in the grant
ing OF public money in aid of any
individual association or corporation,
are held by the attorney general to
be questions already determined by
the courts negatively, and leaves the
material objection that the payment
of public funds under this act is not
for a public purpose-''it is automatic
that public funds can be used only
for public purposes.
The attorney general points out
that the courts have held laws Civ
ing pensions to policemen and fire.
men to be valid, "and it is difficult
to see why the same reasoning should
not apply in the case of teachers in
the public schools

Engineer O'Brien related, according

COL. ROOSEVELT DEGREES
STORY OF HARVESTER
Declares Talk of Suppression Is Non

Advice OF Cabinet

Oyster Bay, \. Y, April 27.-Col.
Theodore Roosevelt in statement
setting forth his connection with the
International Harvester company case
asserts that the talk about the sup
preston Of the report is nonsense.
The ex-president, making his state
ment as reply to the stack of Har-
vester trust documents made public
at Washington Wednesday. says he
was advised by his cabinet to follow
the suggestion Of Commissioners of
Corporations Smith, who asked that
no prosecution be ordered until he
had completed an investigation de-
sired by the senate.
Roosevelt points out that. sitting in
his cabinet when the decision to sus-

colonel, in giving out the statement
especially drew attention to his OBJ

connection he asserts that when the
Northern Securities suit, involving
Morgan, was filed under his instruc-

FIX SUPERVISORS STATUS
May Serve on Committee in Charge
of Building Courthouse, Says
Asst. Attorney General.

Madison.-That a member of a
county board of supervisors may
serve as a member of a committee of
such board, in charge OF building a
courthouse or other county building
and receive pay for a reasonable
number of days of service as such
committeeman at a rate not exceed
ing that allowed to members as per
diem and mileage, is held in an opin-
ion by Assistant Attorney General W.
w Gilman.
In the same opinion it is held that
a member of the county board may
not be employed by such board to
superintend the construction of coun-
ty buildings. That a member of such
board may be appointed to sit as
member OF the income tax board of
review is asserted, however, as that
Office is a state Office and in no way
conflicts with that of supervisor or
member of the county board of su-
pervisors. And, finally, it is held that
a bank, a stakeholder of which is a
member Of a county board of super
visors, may not be permitted to buy
the bonds of such county.

URGING GAME CULTIVATION
Sportsmen of State Behind Bill Ready
for Introduction at Extra Ses-
sion of Legislature.

Madison.-Among the bills which
viii come up at the special session
of the legislature, which opens on
April so, viii be one introduced by
Assemblyman O. A La Budde. Elk
hart Lake, providing for the expen-
diture of the money received from
hunters licenses in restocking the
state with game, Just as has been
done with fish
Mr. La Budde's bill will provide
for the appropriation of $4,000 of
the license money for the introduc-
ton OF Hungarian pheasants. This
bird is said to be not only beautiful
in plumage, but also hardy and well
able to stand the severe. winters of
this climate.
Mr.. La Budde viii have back Of
him not only the hunters in the state,
but the fish and game department as
Well He submitted his plan to Fish
and Game Warden Sholts, who said
he was very much pleased with it.
Mr.. Sholts said that he had given
the propagation of game birds some
attention and thought that as the
sportsmen were contributing the
money for the support of the depart
ment, that something ought to be
done for them.
Under a law passed by the legis-
lature in 1911 all the money re-
ceived from licenses which is not
needed for the support of the fish
and game department is turned over
to the general fund.
1t is said the amount of such IL
cense money turned in to the gen
eral fund in 1911 was 100000.
Sportsmen who have given the mat
ter attention claim this is not right.
They say that either the license
money should be used for restocking
the state with game, as has been done
in the matter of fish, or the licenses
ought to be reduced until there is
no such surplus as at present.
A determined effort will be made
to get Mr.. La Buddes bill through
at the special session, but if the bill
is not passed at the coming session,
it is said, it will be introduced at
the regular session beginning next
January.

There are few farms in Pennsyl-
