18th Mr.. John Arbuckle, of Arbuckle
Brothers, gave out a statement which
was printed in full in every Associa t.
ed Press newspaper of the United
States concerning the sugar situation.
A copy of this statement is attached
hereto. The matters contained in this
statement were of such great import
ance and some of the misrepresenta-
tions so gross that l did not feel ina
these statements should DO unchal-
lenged.
It took the matter up with the locs!
representatives of the Associated Press
who followed it through the ordinary
channels and was assured that the
Associated Press would handle six
hundred and fifty words representing
the beet sugar mems prosition upon
these questions. This statement [ pre-
pared and you will find a copy hereto
Republican, the Colorado papers hav-
ing handled it in full. The manner in
which it was handled will be dis
closed by the attached clipping from
the Washington Post of October Is
Your long experience in newspaper
work, will cause you to see Immediate
ly that we would have been much bet
ter satisfied had the Associated Press
refused to handle it entirely rather
than to have it published in this ah-
DreVlaIeQ ana WHOLLY UNSATISFACTORY
manner.
"Of course, l understand the Asso-
ciated Press is in no sense partisan
and aims TO be wholly fair to all of
the greatest interests of the country,
and that all the beet sugar interests
ask is that they receive the same treat
ment at the hands of your association
as is accorded to certain retiners III
New York, who are pushing the free
sugar propaganda with the aVowed
purpose of at least putting a stop TO
the growth of the beet sugar industry.
I'VE certainly have no desire 10
burden the Associated Press with mat
ter put out for the purpose of boost
ing our industry, but when attacke5,
feel that we should be given as much
publicity as is given to our opponents.
At least we would like to know what
our status is so far your asSOciu-
ton is concerned. OF course there
may be something in the character
of the statement given out by me
which would prevent its acceptance in
full, and if so you will be doing ne
distinct favor by advising me in what
respect this is true. Trusting you will
give this serious personal Considerd-
ton and thinking you in advance for
anything you may be able to do in the
direction of according justice to 50
large an industry, l am,

DID NOT KNOW HIM.

Il did not know Mr.. Hamlin,' add
ed Mr. Stone THE statement that he
was a member of the Associated Press
is true, but in meeting the 500 mem
bers of the Associated Press I did not
happen to remember him and I have
never met him but once in my life. I
would not know him If he were IN this
room at this moment.
THE statement in respect to the
local correspondent of the Associates
Press at Colorado Springs having
agreed to handle for the Associated
Press $50 words, 1 should explain in
this way. The local correspondent has
no power whatever to commit the AS
ISOLATED Press to any policy or to any
agreement of that sort. His entire
duty and his entire responsibility and
ability in respect to the matter was
to send any despatch he might have
to our Denver office and there it
would fall into the hands of a saIaried
correspondent and he would determine
how much should be used.
THE local correspondent had no
authority to commit it, and indeed,
though I don't know who he was, he
Hamlin's own paper"
Mr.. Stone gave the committee
copy of the letter he wrote to c. D.
Hagerty, in charge of the Denver
office of the Associated Press, October
%. 1t asked for informa ton as to the
handling of the Hamlin statement and
concluded:
personally, I am inclined to dis
courage carrying long statement of
controversial nature, but inasmuch as
we carried Mr.. Arbuckle's statement
rather fully, my judgment is that we
might have handled a little more of
Mr.. Hamlin's provided 1T was prepared
as briefly as our story here indicates"
A reply from Mr. Hagerty stated that
500 words of the Hamlin statement
had come into the Denver office over
the wire from Colorado Springs but
that owning to the crowded condition
of the Associated Press wires only
200 words had been sent east and 81
words were cut out of the despatch at
relay offices before it reached New
York
Mr.. Hamlin then wrote Mr. Stone,
October 81, permit me to thank you
for your kind favor of the 23rd. in
slant. and to express my appreciation
Of your position in the matter I can
readily understand how the situation
arose and of course know the Assoc
ciated Press desires to do full justice
to all interests with entire impartial
ity. There is to be a meeting of the
beet sugar interests in Chicago on No
vember Is, at which time a statement

Mr.. Arbuckle was presented, it hap
pened to be a very busy day and night.
The president of the United States was
at San Francisco. the plans for Justice
Harlan's funeral were on, the McNam-
ara trial was before the country, the
worlds series of baseball games was
in progress, a critical situation in
China existed, and there was an acute
political situa ton in Mexico All of
these things crowded our one wire
running from Kansas City to San
Francisco and I suppose our Denver
office was forced to abbreviate your
statement. I am writing to the chief
of our Office there asking him for an
explanation regarding the matter; but
1 can we'll guess what he will say.
II fancy the matter will come up be-
fore congress and then I trust we shall
be able to give you as good a, hear
ing as those who are contending on
the other side.

northeastward.

the Sth Of October, 1871, a boy of
twelve years without a cent in my

went on southwark, where the people
in safety We're standing in front of
their houses or on their roofs watching
the great glare n listening to the
boom OF falling buildings. My burden
was squalling. and a woman. taking
pity on me and it. brought out from her
house some milk in a bottle. The baby
drank 1t. and when l gave the woman
my story she had the liberality to give
me the bottle, but not the humanity to
take us in.
"There was a building in the neigh.
borhood where l had slept. there
being a board loose SO that l could
crawl into a place where hay was kept
o the baby to this place and laid
her on a soft bed. Fortunately I had
found her we'll wrapped in blankets. !
shall never forget the companionable
feeling of cuddling up alongside the lit.
tie thing and going to sleep. In the
morning l was awakened by something
Juggling at my hair. and there was the
baby laughing at me.
Il took the bottle. went out and beg.
ged some food Of a woman and brought
it back for the child's breakfast"
1T was fortunate you ven to a wo.
man. remarked Mrs. Kennedy. You
wouldn't have known how to prepare
the food"
1T was then l learned. and after that
l prepared the food myself. Well, as
soon as the baby was asleep again ]

rying things for people-for they We're
pouring southwark on Michigan ave

he baby its dinner. She looked to
me like a birdlet just Matched. The
only name l knew for a bird was chip.
Ply. SO called her Chip.
Zone day l was doing a job for a
gentleman and told him about my
baby. He asked me where she was,
and after he had promised me not to
take her from me l told him. He went
with me to our home. and when he
saw Chip snoozing away. With an emp
ty bottle beside her, great was his as
tonishment. He told me to pick her
up and fOllow him. but l said that all
l wanted was to earn money to buy
milk for her, and. seeing that l was
determined. he left me alone with her.
telling me to come to his store and he
would give me work. I did so and
soon after took Chip to a little room I
hired. Having something to work for.
I g attended to business and am now at
the head Of the concern 1 entered over
thirty years ago"
"And what became Of the baby?"
Chip" he replied. looking at his
wife. II think you'd better finish the
story"

A Space For Our Little Friends
LIFTING A PERSON EASILY.
Five Operators Using One Finger
Apiece Can Accomplish It..

When some OF your friends come to
see you try this little stunt: Get one
boy or girl to be the goat" or the one
to be operated on.
1t takes five operators to work out
this trick.
Two operators put their index fingers
under the persons shoes: two others
place their index fingers under each
of his elbows and a fifth under the
him OF the person or subject.
At Il given signal each person lifts
his hand and the person is easily lifted
up. The result may seem very surpriS-
ing. but it is only a question Of the
equal subdivision Of weight. The aver
age boy of sixteen weighs about 12O
pounds. so each finger has only twenty
four pounds weight. which is not ex-
t-iordinary.

HOW TO WEAR A CORSET.
Rules as Laid Down by a Committee
Of English Scientists.

Since cOrSetS have ceased to be in
struments of torture the doctors have
discovered that most women are better
off with than without them.
The matter has been made the sub.
ject Of 4 public scieLtific investigation.
resulting in Il set of rules prescribing
what kind of cOrsets to Wear and how
to wear them. This is the work Of a
committee Of scientists appointed by
the London council of the Incorporated
Institute of Hygiene.
In regard to the construction of cor
sets. the Instructions say:
First.-The corset should be sufi-
GENTLY flexible to allow of free move
ment of the body in every direction.
SecOnd.-The corset should be con-
stlucted so as to exert pressure only
on the lower part Of the abdomen.
the direction of the pressure being up
ward and backward.
Third.-The COZ set should be Ouite
loose above. so that no pressure is ex-
erted on the lower ribs and upper part
cf the abdomen.
1t is equally important. continues
the report. to have the corset properly
adjusted. stand erect before a mirror.

abdomen and support the weight Of
the body upon the front part of the
SoleS of the feet. FaSten the DuSks in

lHNl'eu 10 stay at the nome
Of Walter Kennedy, a man
With whom I had dealings. Kennedy
was a self made nan who by industry
had rendered himself and his family
very comfortable. His home stood on
the banks of Lake Michigan. on a bluff
a dozen miles north of the city. One
evening after dinner we We're smoking
on his piazza overlooking the lake.
Mrs. Kennedy sat with us. stroking the
hair of her little daughter. Beneath,
the waves We're FLASHING on the sand.
We were speaking of the rapid growth
of the metropolis of the west.
"R.y the bye. Kennedy l said. "were
YOU in Chicago at the time Of the great
fire."
"Well. yes" he said: then. after a
moments silence. at was the big burn
that gave me my start"
looked %eXpectant. but did not care
to ask for his confidence.
Everybody about here knows the
story he said presently. $50 l might
as we'll give it to you. In 1871. l regret
to confess. l was little better than a
street arab. l lived from hand to mouth
on what l could pick up and never had
a cent over. Indeed it never occurred
to me to save anything out Of my scant
earnings. | remember we'll the opening
of h great fire. 1t was Sunday night
and. though October. was very warm.
l was playing tag with some BOYS on
the street when the fire alarm sound
ed. but we had had so many alarms
for n past month that we boys paid
no attention to it. Presently there was
such a great glare to the west that we
stopped the game and went across the
river to get a nearer view. We found
the people over there moving out of
their houses and the streets lined with
furniture and bedding. on which were
lying the little children.
II roamed about. ENJOYING the nov
city OF h situation. till I found my
self In the track of the fire. l looked
about for a way out, and. seeing that
there was but one chance, down a
street running southwark. l started to
run for my life. The buildings l passed
were deserted. their owners having
realized their danger and got away,
Not a human being was near-yes. one.
Passing a mattress lying on the side
walk. l heard a cry. Stopping. l exam

rolled a mite of a girl baby
She weighed twelve pounds put in
Mrs. Kennedy. You weighed her a
few days after"
"Well, them" continued her husband.
Il unrolled a twelve pound baby. The
most natural thing in the world to do
was to pick up the baby and take it
along with me. At any rate, this is
what l die. There We're flames in nv
path. though more smoke than flame.

More Important Than Clothes.

There's Il deal too much time given
to thoughts of dressing the body and
too little time given to the more impOr-
