HERBERT KNOX SMITH
ISSUES A STATEMENT

New Britain. Conn, Aug. e3.-"Faise
and absolutely unfounded and un-
worthy were the terms by which Her.
bert Knox Smith tonight characterized
the imputations contained in the sensa-
tional Standard OIL testimony before ths
Senate Committee to-day by John d.
Archbold. who declared that Mr.. Smith.
as Commissioner of Corporations, made
his attacks and adverse reports on the
Oil Trust in order TO place that corpora
ton in a bad light before the courts and
legislative bodies.
Mr.. Smith. who is now Bull Moose
leader of Connecticut, was conducting a
Progressive party rally in Turner Hall
In this city tonight when approached by
a reporter. He explained that the Stand
ard Oil Company has been in court all
the time since 1905, and that reports could
not have been withheld. Mr.. Smith was
told that Archbold intimated that at
tacks made on the Standard Oil Com
pany by Commissioners Smith and James
R. Garfield had been unfailingly ap-
proved by President Roosevelt and with
out the slightest knowledge Of facts. and
that -Archbold had testified that there
was more than a coincidence in the ap-
pearance Of adverse governmental re-
ports every time the Standard Oil Com
pany was concerned In litigation IN the
courts or every time legislation appeared
In Washington In which the company
was interested
In reply to these insinuations." ex

planned Mr.. Smith. Il will call attention
to the fact that the first report of the
Bureau Of Commerce and Labor was
printed in 1906 on the railway rebate sys-
tenn showing the tremendous privileges
the Standard OIL Company was enjoying
on the railroad. The direct result of
that report was the bringing of the
Standard Oil Company into court on a
criminal Indictment as a result of those
rebates and that the Standard OIL Com
pany has been in court ever since. a
period of six years.
THE holding up of the reports would
have the effect Of postponing the court
proceedings, and the bureau was actu-
ated by no motive such as imDuted TO
II by Mr. Archbold. 1 desire to point out
that the Standard Oil Company had been
in court all of the time, and the adverse
reports would never have been made
after the one in 1906 up to the present
time II occasion had been awaited when
the Standard Oil was not in court.
"As a matter of fact the bureaus re-
port at the time of the So. 1000 600 fine on
the Standard Oil was held back for a
time so as not to have the appearance of

NOTHING TO STORY,
SAYS G. W. PERKINS

New York, Aug. 2a-Regarding the
statement of Senator Boies Penrose on
the floor of the Senate yesterday. that
he had underwritten a fund of 5000. 900 to
finance the Roosevelt campaign, George
W. Perkins said to-day:
81 am ready to go before the Senate
investigating committee at any time. /
notified this committee two weeks ago
Of my willingness to appear before them,
but as yet I have not heard anything
from them.
''As for the statement of Senator Pen
rose that i underworld a Roosevelt cam
paign fund of $4,000. can only repeat
that there is absolutely no truth in It."
The Washington herald., 1912-08-24

finite baseness which actuates himself" !"
THE statement that my letters and
kilograms to Mr.. Cortelyou were written
for the purpose of going into the record
and were not genuine and were not ac-
cepted by Mr.. Cortelyou as genuine is
a deliberate and willful falsehood. which
he knows to be such when he makes II.
Mr.. Penrose's attitude in this matter
symbolizes his habitual attitude. which
has finally brought him to disaster in
Pennsylvania. for he is never able TO
understand that other men are not ac-
tuated by his own incurable baseness OF
soul.
Explicit Instructions.
MY first letter, written as soon as ]
heard that the Standard OIL people had
contributed, and explicit and unequiv-
ocsl in its terms. was written on Octo-
Der 26. Not hearing from these letters
1 wired Mr.. Cortelyou on October 8 !
then received from Mr.. Cortelyou the
statement that my wishes would be COM
piled with, and that no contribution from
the Standard on people had been or
would be received
IF any such contribution was received
it was received not only without my
knowledge, but against my explicit direc-
tions.
The reason that Penrose and his spe-
cial allies and his hackers and masters
in the world of finance are against me
now Is because they and their kind
could not use me while was President.
Honored by Opposition.
IT count myself honored by his oppo-
sition. and I count that opposition as q
certificate Of character for the Progress
i've party, for II shows that the Pro-
gressive party and only the Progressive
party and the leaders of the Progressive
party are the foes really dreaded by the
Penroses In our public life
Col Roosevelt was asked specifically
about a story which set forth that Philan-
der c. Knox, now Secretary of State, had
entered his Office when he was signing one
of the Cortelyou letters and had informed
him that his instructions to Mr.. Cortel-
you were useless as the Standard Oil
money had already been spent The story
went on to say that Col. Roosevelt re-
marked that his letters should go into
the record"
That Is another absolute and willful
falsehood." said the colonel
The Washington herald., 1912-08-24

chest II was dispelled by Mr.. Archbold's s
testimony. All through his testimony 1t
was apparent that the Standard Oil Com
pany expected to receive some considera-
tion for its outlay.
Did Not Have Receipt.
Mr.. Archbold did not produce the re-
ceipt said to have been given by Mr..
Bliss for the 100000. He testified he had
not been able to find It.
The Senate committee has decided to
postpone further inquiry into this SUBJ
ject until the last week in September.
Then many witnesses will be called and
the investigation will continue probably
until election day. The committed has
received no intimation that Col Roose-
welt desires to appear, but Senator Pen
rose will make a fight to have him sub
poenaed II necessary, and II Is believed
that the committee will yield.
No action was taken yesterday by the
Senate on the Penrose-Reedr resolution
providing for an inquiry into the Penross
charges and the Roosevelt campaign
fund in the recent primary. This resolu-
ton will be passed to-day, however, un-
less Roosevelt's friends filibuster
against 1t.
Mr.. Archbold was on the witness stand
practically all the morning He was
questioned at first by Senator Ciapp.
chairman of the committee. and a Bull
Mooser, and later by Senator Pomerene.
Senator Penrose took the witness chair
under oath after Mr.. Archbold had been
heard. He verified the statements made
by Mr.. Archbold that Standard Oil off,
cials feared after they had declined to
give up the $1,000 for the Roosevelt
campaign that they had made a serious
mistake.
time said Mr.. Penrose. that perhaps
this action exposed them to retaliatory
measures, the theory being that 1t threw
the powers that be, as Mr.. Archbold ex-
planned, into other financial hands. and
they were rendered immune, while the
Standard OIL Company was made the
goat. as the common saying is. in order
to get popular acclaim"

GARFIELD DENIES MONEY
INFLUENCED BUREAU

Cleveland. Ohio, Aug. 23.-James r.
Garfield denied point blank to-day that
investigation of the Standard Oil COM
pany by the Bureau of Corporations was
Influenced by refusal Of Standard officials
to make a second contribution to the
Roosevelt campaign fund in 1904
II know nothing about the contribu-
TONS" Garfield said. Il was in charge
Of the investigation of the Standard by
the Bureau of Corporations, but cam
paign contributions had nothing to do
with that. The investigation had been
begun and We simply went ahead with
1t.
II do know. however, that the issue
is as clear as a bell in this contention.
The Penrose-Democrat combination is
simply an attempt by the reactionaries
in both parties to befog the third party
atmosphere. There's nothing to 1t what

another problem to which Mr. Byrd
mas directed his attention is the mat
ter of better adjustment of the
burdens of taxation. Under the pro-
visions of a hill which he helped to
support In 1910, Tax Commission
was created. of which he was made a
member. This commission worked for
two years. and at the beginning of
the past session Its conclusions were
made the basis of the keynote speech
by Mr. Byrd in accepting the Demo
cratic nomination for reelection as
Speaker But it was found impossible
to pass any bill which would deal eff
1ectively with the subject.
The Byrd primary bills OF 1910 and
1912 have been widely discussed. The
FORMER died on the calendar. After two
years of further study the Speaker
evolved measure which he succeeded
In having passed by the House last
session, but which was SO amended in
the Senate as to cause its patron to
refuse to recognize 1t when he met 1t
