his wife set OF furs from a local

ployment to his expert furrier and to
pay a better salary. Clarksburgers
have it In their power to thus direct

LIND CHARGES DENIED
BY HENRY LANE WILSON

Henry Lane Wilson, former amba ssa-
dor to Mexico. who has been visiting
Washington, issued a statement last
night before departing for indianapolis
in which he denies charges attributed
to John Lind, to the effect that he knew
of the plot to assassinate Madero, the
late president Of Mexico, and did not
prevent its consumma ton
Mr.. Wilson intimated that he may file
a suit for damages against Mr.. Lind,
who was at one time President Will
sons personal representative in Mex
leo, if he finds that Mr.. Lind really did
make the statements he is reported to
have made in yesterday mornings
newspapers.
Mr.. Wilson's statement is as follows:
Il cannot do Mr.. Lind the injustice of
accepting as true the statements re-
fiecting on me which have been ac-
credited to him until 1 shall have re-
ceiyed his written confirmation.
IF the story as printed is confirmed
by him / shall Immediately take steps
to ascertain whether there is any pro-
lection in the courts against malicious
and defamatory statements.
1T might be Of some interest to say
that this story was printed while /
discredited by the press of the country,
by the public statement of Mr.. Taft,
under whose administration the events
referred to occurred and even by
published interview with Mr.. Bryan.
There will not be the slightest diff
ficulty in proving these charges to be
without shadow of truth, and that
on the contrary, as shown by the rec
ord and by the evidence of the entire
embassy staff and American citizens,
the story is sensational fabrication.
without the slightest basis, and that
made every exertion possible to- save
the life of the unfortunate Madero, in
addition to furnishing effective aid and
protection to members of his family"
