WAsHiNGTos, July e3.-1n denying the
truth OF recently published reports that
500 veterans OF the nish-Americsn
war had been turned out OF the Govern
ment service In the Philippines since the
Democratic Administration made Francis
Burton Harrison Governor General. Sec
rotary Garrison charged to-day that there

The withdrawal OF the nomination OF
Mr.. Jones was accepted under dramatic
circumstances. Senator Reed was on the
ioor of the Senate grillng the Interna-
tional Harvester company and making a
sharp attack upon Mr.. Jones.
Senator Reeds speech was sensational.
In referring TO the fact that Mr.. Jones
pleaded that he did not become a director
or the Harvester trust until after Il was
organized Senator Reed had Just said.
"A man who volunteers TO serve on
board pirate ship with an already es-
tablished criminal history may be worse
than one who enlists with the original
crew. The latter might have been de-
ceived into the service. the former knows

Senator Reed was still hurting his bolts
against MIR. Jones when Senator Hitch
cock. smiling tiptoed into the chamber.
He moved over near Senator Reed and
slipped him a piece of paper telling of
the Presidents action. Senator Reed read
the note. looked surprised and then re-
sumed his task once more with renewed
energy. He was still flashing the Har-
vester company wien the Presidents
messenger appeared at the Senate door
and handed in the notice OF withdrawal.
Senators Hitchcock and Reed believe
they have won a great victory over the
President and do not seem TO fear the
political consequences. Each of them ex-
