VAN VALKENBERG
ROASTS PENROSE

BY international News Service.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 21.-Editor Van
Valkenberg at Midnight issued the fol-
lowing reply TO Penrose's reference to
him In his address to the senate today;
Senator Penrose's reference TO me
concerns one OF thirty or forty suits
which he and his co-corruptonists OF
Pennsylvania have brought against me
during the last fifteen years. not one Of
which has yet been brought to trial.
"I tried unsuccessfully to force the
Schuylkill case to an early trial Before
the politicians saw ut to give me trial,
their tool who swore out the warrant
against me was sent to Sing Sing for
five years for perjury. He was dctec-
tive by the name of Gibson, and his ar
rest md conviction grew out of the celc-
brated Shradln divorce case In New York
city
"Gibson was vital witness In the
Schuylkill county proceedings against
me. The loss OF their chief witness left
the politicians no alternative than to
nolle PROSE- the case which they did at
the next term Of the court.
THE accusation that I paid one dollar
or consented to have one dollar paid. or
had knowledge that one dollar was paid
In the settleme ent OF the costs In the case,
Is unquallfiedly false.
Senator Penrose's evident purpose In
bringing my name into statement be-
fore the senate Is 10 forestall the pre-
sentation Of evidence In the possession
Of the North American that he is a briber
and corruptionist such as has not been
exposed in public life In this country
In recent years.

of the industrial commission. but the
work OF the commission. as is we'll
known, was performed largely by the
non-congressional members OF the
commission. AS the sessions OF the
commission were continuous over a
considerable period 1t turned out TO
be impossible for me at least to at
tend very many OF the prolonged ses-
slons. i do not believe that I was
able 10 attend more than one or two
meetings during the whole life of the
commission. I certainly never partici-
pated in their deliberations or conclr-
sions.- neither did I In any way try
to influence the same. The commits
sion was engaged In a general line of
investigation into industrial condi-
tions and in no case did any one re-
fuse to appear before the commission
or object to appearing. The only
question raised as to the appearance
of witnesses where all witnesses were
