correspondence between himself and

RADIO Fuel and Iron company, which
was made public yesterday by Frank
p. walsh, chairman Of the United
States Commission on Industrial Re-
lations.
Mr.. Rockefeller characterizes as
false the conclusions which Mr.
walsh drew from the correspon-
dence.
Proceedings IndefensibIe.
Mr.. Rockefeller asserts that NJ. walsh
had drawn differences without ascertain
ing whether they were correct pro
ceedinE, which is wholly indefonsible."

The statement follows;

Diplomats are watching Italy, which
apparently has not yet reached a decl-
sion on its future attitude. The fact that
the meeting of the council OF ministers
called for today was postponed would
seem to indicate that negotiations be-

still proceeding or that Italy is waiting
for final answer to its demands for

 After a stubborn resistance for more than two weeks the Villa forces were compelled to evacuate the city. They fled toward Torreon. travelling across the Gesert. the railway to Paredon having fallen into the hands of the carranza troops, cutting off retreat in that direc- ton. Almost simultaneously with the battle before saltillo the forces of Ire vino forced the Villa troops beyond Pare con and secured control of that hitherto impregnabe stronghold.
 Details as to the number of dead are lacking. but telegraphic reports indicate the losses were very heavy, especially in the Villa ranks and that the latter faction. lost most of its artillery in the retreat from Saltillo.

poration which in the beginning of the session, was declared to have stacked both branches of the legislature. Half a dozen members are employees In legal ca paeity of railroads, and as such admit that they travel throughout the state on passes issued by the railroads.
 An interesting deduction is that the senators who are not connected with cor porations declare such fact with unde- niable satisfaction. They seem to say. in effect. the devil has not touched me" Another interesting feature is the apparent indifference of those senators who have corporate connections. They appear to be so secure in their own hon. esty that insinuations pass them by ''as the idle wind"
 All of the statements are full and none of them contain evidence that any senator has attempted to dodge the issue. Each tells of business enter prises in which he owns stock and some of the enterprises are grocery stores. Senator Lee for instance, de- ciares that he owns stock to the value of $50 in an overall plant

Montgomery, September 6.-(Speclal.) It is possible for the people of the state to judge of the extent to which mem- bers of the senate may be influenced by corporations, and the ''malefactors of great wealth."
 As is remembered. some days ago, the senate passed a resolution offered by Sen ator Bonner requiring the members to declare for the record their arfiliation with "big business" Thirty have done so. On the same date, the house passed a similar resolution offered by MT. Judge of Shelby. It is an interesting fact that the clerk of the house has not equipped himself with the requisite book, and that no member of the lower branch has as yet responded to the in structions of the resolution.
