BRECKENRIDGE GIVES THE LIE
 TO DR. BAILEY
Former Secretary of War Garrison Refuses to Make Statement Concerning the Alleged Withdrawn Post script of Lusitania Note
tRepublIcan A. p. Leased wire7

Republican A. P. Leased Wire1
 NEW YORK Oct 29-Democratic national headquarters made public to- night the following telegram sent by Henry C. Breckinridge, former assist ant secretary of war to the Philadel- phia Public Ledger in reply to state ments made in q speech by Senator Lodge, quoting him in reference to tho alleged elemination of a post script from the second Lusitania note
 Any one who quoted me to Sena- tor Lodge as represented in your tel egram as quoted. is a scoundrel No member of President Wilson's cabinet ever threatened him on any subject. The malice that would seek for par tisan advantage to emulate the poten- cy of ones government, in a vital in ternational affair by the mongering of 5ackstairs gossip is beneath con- tempt"
 Another denial of Senator Lodges assertion was contained Tn a message received at democratic headquarters from David F. Houston, secretary of agriculture who said: "I nave received telegram from the Philadelphia Pub lie Ledger representing Senator Lodge as having said at Brockton. that aftec the second Lusitania note had been read, the president added q postscript informing the German government that the words strict accountability and other strong phrases were not to he taken seriously and that I threat cned to resign if the postscript was added. Of course. this is a fabrication pure and simple. The president would | have been incapable of cOnceiving such a crooked course.
 'I never heard of such a postscript and did not threaten and have at no other time threatened to resign. I would have been astounded a. the { statement if [ had not noted other 1 fire esponsible. unpatriotic and disloyaI utterances of republican leaders es- l pecially those raising and dealing with sectiOnalism Surely the repub | lican leaders are very desperate and | in sad need of issues when they lend 1 themselves 70 such things
