JOHNSON'S LIFE

MANY ANONYMOUS LETTERS.

Repeated Threats Made
against Him.

Mir. Johnson told the story Of how
he secured an affidavit III which re-
tired policeman named Sam Cornwall
was quoted as intending 10 take his
life; how he was shadcwed enc night
some time later by man whom he
assumed to be Cornwall, and how the
Congressman drew his revolver and
was prepared to kill the shadower

my coat" said Mr. Johnson simply.
"and If the man had stepped from the
curb had made up my mind to kill
him"
The man turned il the opposite d.
rection and walked away.
Mr.. Johnson is chairman of the
House Committee or the District of Co
lumbia and was especially active in
securing the passage of bill reduc-
ing the legal rate of interest on loans
in Washington. This legislation has
practically driven the rawnbrokers out
of business, and the lobby committee
has heard testimony that 3 sum Of
nearly $4,000 was raised to defeat the
Johnson bill.
Johnson said he and Speaker Champ
Clark had secured the affidavit inyOv-
ing Cornwall from policeman named
Emory Roberts. This was after re-
peated attempts had been made to in
fuence his course toward the loan
shark legislation, said Mr. Johnson.
Mr.. Johnson described the attempts
to break into his rooms in the House
Office Building until he had to equip
them all with intricate locks the

his family for months and the time
when he discovered q fire in an Office

sen That His Efforts For
Peace Have Their
Support.

Washington.-A patriotic demonstra-
tion in support of President Wilson S
attitude toward the Huerta govern
ment is being planned by members Of
both political parties in Congress. The
occasion Tor the demonstration will be
the appearance of the President in the
House OF Representatives TO read his
message explaining his efforts to end
the troubles in Mexico
1t is intended that the President
shall be given an enthusiastic recep-
tion when he appears in the House
and that the enthusiasm shall not be
permitted to Wane during the course
OF his reading of the message Con-
gressmen generally, without regard to
party, are anxious TO show the Presi-
dent that his efforts for peace have
the support of the national Legisla-
ture and their cordial attitude toward
these efforts will be intended as an
emphatic answer to the intimations Of
President Huerta that he was satisfied
from adyices received by him from

Mexican policy, and particularly his
refusal to recognize the Huerta gov
ernment, was not popular either in
Congress or among the people.
Foreign Pressure On Mexico.
European diplomatic pressure, it is
known here, is quietly at work in
Mexico City in an effort to convince
Huerta officials that the policy OF the
United States is being approved
abroad. The failure of the Huerta
government to obtain funds in Europe
through the non-recognition of the
United States is pointed to by the
diplomats as likely to continue pend
ing more respectful consideration OF
the American proposals.
Bryan Sends Curt Warning.
Curt warning to both the Huerta
and Constitutionalist commanders at
La BoQuilla, Chihuahua, Mexico, that
the United States will hold them per
sonaliy responsible for any violence
against Americans by ANY one claim

sent by Secretary Bryan through
