WASHINGTON. June a9.-The
record for continuous fasting since

DR.. Tanner years ago, has just been
achieved by Luther Bedford, Of New
York city, who is now rapidly re-
gaining his strength at the Washing
ton Asylum hospital, after total alb
stinence from food for thirty days.
In some respects Bedford's per-
Torrance is feat Of endurance
superior to that Of DIR. Tanner. who
rested az he tasted, for during his
last Bedford Travelled from New York
to this city, stopping in Philadelphia
and Baltimore and In the entire
thirty days took absolutely nothing
but water.
Bedford stated that his plan was to
fast forty days, but this became more
than he could withstand and after
taking food in too large quantity
at the home OF an old friend, Charles
w. Paffiow. 100 Maple avenue,
Takoma Park. whom he was visit

removed to the Asylum hospital.
That was last Thursday and since
then he has been under the care OF

Bedford began his fast In the hope
OF overcoming rheumatic pains and
chronic Indigestion. from which he
had suffered for years.
Yesterday, Bedford became normal

RESIGNATION.
HIGHLY SIGNIFICANT
STATEMENT TAKEN As GIVING AT

THOUGH BRYAN SPEAKS
AS PRIVATE CITIZEN.
HIGHLY SIGNIFICANT

WASHINGTON, June 2s--In a
statement issued in his capacity as
editor OF the Commoner," Secretary
OF State Bryan tonight came to the
defense OF Attorney @ eneral Nc
Reynolds. in connection with the Cam
inetti case, and at the same time took
TO task the editor of the New York
World for the iatters published de-
mand that Mr.. McReynolds resign.
Mr.. Bryan says in part;
The editor of the Commoner has
read with deer regret the editorial
which appeared in the New York
World. of this saturday. morning
and is sure that the editor will. on re-
Election, admit that he has done in
Justice to Attorney General McReyn-
olds. Secretary Wilson and fmmigra-
ton Commissioner Caminetu. Mr.
McReynoids continued the case at the
request of Secretary wilson-and 1T
was reasonable request, The New
York World says that 1t does not
doubt that Mr.. McReynolds' motives
were honorable II his motives were
honorable, how can his act justify a
demand for his resignation?
No One to Blame
Neither can Secretary Wilson be
fairly blamed He declared that he
was considering the interests of his
department. and that he made the
request on his own initiative, and
without solicitation from Mr.. Can't
netti.
"As for Mr.. Caminetti, we have
known him for more than twenty
years. and have no hesitation in say
irg that there is not more upright
or honorable man in public life.
'Wh n the public has had an OPP
per Iiiy To consider the entire case,
the edmin,str atoms course will be
sustained. Its hold upon the public
would be frail indeed, If confidence
in II could lie destroyed or even shaken
by one act even If it should be shown
which is net poss!ble-that that act
was a mistake"
The statement By Bryan IL regarded
here as riore significant than mere
exr Of psrconal opinion. 1t In
dicates clearly that Bryan and the
rest CT the Wi,scn administration will
fight any efforts that may be made to
force McKeyno1ds fsem the cabinet. -,

BY SANDER

WASHINGTON. June 2a.-Mul-
halls charges will certainly result in
thorough inquiry into the activities
of the National Association of Manu-
facturers in congress. but this assoc
citation will not remain quiet and sub,
missive under the probe.
An investigation of the manufac-
turers' LOBBY Is found to lead to an
Investigation of the labor lobby,
continuous and persistent in its eff
forts in Washington for many years.
Only a few men involved by Null
hall in his sweeping charges are now
members of congress, or in Wash
ington.
Several Make Denial.
From several who were here today,
however came indignant deniais OF
the Mulhall accusations, some OK
them convincing and some less 80.
James A Emery, counsel for the
n. A. NJ, whom Mulhall describes as
the present lobby chief. issued a
scorching statement against Mufhall.
He charged that Mulhall had been
discharged by the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers year ago, and
had undertaken by repeated pleadlngs
and threats 10 reinstate himself IN
the employment of tile manufac-
turers.
"Failing Blackmail. He ISLANDERS"
This" says Emery, is probably
the final effort of this individual TO
wreck a well-paid revenge by
grossly false attack upon those VINO
found him unworthy of trust. Fall
ing in blackmail he resorted to SLAM
der"
Emery enters an emphatic denial
that the N. A. NJ has engaged In
improper or iilegitimate activities In
Washington. He characterizes az
sinister and diabolical lie" MuihalIs
infimation that any OF the men narved
in his statement were ever In the en-
ploy Of the association directly or tn--
directly. whether in or out OF pub
lie life.
n. A. NJ. Was In Politics.
NEW YORK, June ga general
statement by Mulhall that the Ma
tional Association Of Manufacturers
claimed TO be a non-politicaf business.
and trade organization. is not borne
out by the facts. On May 10, 1908:
President James ". VanCleaye, Of
the N A. NJ. gave an interview IN
which he announced that the associa-
ton had been compelled to go into
politics, we find ourselves compelled
temporrily to oppose public men,
whom we have favored under di1er-
ent conditions, SO much the worse for
those men.
At that time the news that the N.
A. NJ. meant to fight labor candf-
dates and to raise a large fund for
the purpose, was printed In the news
papers.

WASHINGTON, June 28 ~
Washington seems to be head
ed now straight toward
lobby investigation which MilN|
lay bare all the workings ol
the underground system at th6II
national capital for the last tef
years, and which will turn TIN
light of publicity upon many
men who have long sinc6
ceased to be members Of con-
gress, and some Of whom aYes
in their graves.
The publication Of the con-
fessions of a former Washing n
ton lobbyist, with details al t|
names and incidents, has added
fuel to the fires that has been
started by the inquiry already
under way, as the result d
President Wilson's charges. q.
Washington is Aroused.
Colonel Martin d. Mulhall Al
sworn statement, fell0wffil
closely on the heels Of TIN
Lovett exposure of the Wall
Street hold-up, and the activi-
ties of the beet sugar people,
has aroused Washington on
this subject, as it has never
been aroused before, and Inn
mediate steps will be taken to-
probe the entire lobby system.
Senator Overman, chairman
of the committee which is al
ready making an inquiry into
the activity of lobbyists in re-
gard to the tariff bill, and the
Lovett charges, announced to-
day that his committee will
take up all the accusations
made by Colonel Mulhall, the
former lobbyist for the Ma
tional Association of Manufac~|
turerS.
Mulhall to Testify.
Senator Overman already
has subpoenaed Colonel Mnl
hall to appear before his com
mittee on July 8th.
This inquiry by the senate
committee, however, probably
will not satisfy the members n
congress, who are boiling witt
anger over having had their
names dragged into the MUM
hall statement in a general Ma
without any specific alleg
tons against them. They XII
undoubtedly demand a speci
inquiry by a committee of
house of representatives in
the Mulhall charges.
