vOlScd In MaderO Revolt.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-S. q. Hopkins,
an attorney prominent in the affairs of
tho Madero and Carranza revolutions and
once counsel for Henry Clay Pierce, de-
clared to-day that neither the Waters
Pierce OIL Company nor any other Ameri-
can corporation contributed any funds
TO the support Of the Madero revolution.
He made detailed statements to this
effect more than year ago when sum
moned before the Senate committee which
Investigated conditions along the Mexican
border. The committee inquired Of him
as to his connection with the Madero
revolution and with Henry Clay Pierce
Of the Waters-Pierce company and was
assured that the Madero revolution was
financed without aid from any American
oil company.
State Department officials denied that
the Department had any documentary
evidence that either the Waters Pierce
company or the Standard OIL Company
had financed the Madero revolution. The
Department, 1t was explained, never made
a point of investigating the financing of
any Of the revolutions in Mexico and
never received from either the Treasury
or Justice departments. which made many

cans In Mexico and on the border be.
