"On what did YOU base that asked
Senator Smith.
"On what that man told me. and on
tho fact that when there WAS anything
TO be- done In Washington the frat man
who was around was Mr.. Hopkins. and
Mr. Hopkins was absolutely the open
enemy Of Diaz. and VAS the man that
fomenied the revolution" replied Dtdapp.
He was in communication with all the

many facts. La Aguila MeXlcana WAS
the only competitor the Standard OH had
In Mexico. In the lrst place its prod

Mr. Hopkins cmphatically denied before
the committee that he had ever been en-

admitted that at one time he was en-
