FLETCHER SAYS SUIT
IS WITHOUT GROUNDS

Concerning the suit fled in federal
court today against himself, Alvin T.
Eert Of Kentucky, and the American
Creosoting Company, asking damages TO
falling S15.00OOOO, St0ughten A Fletcher
made the following statement:
In reference 10 the suit hled today the
charges Of fraud and conspiracy are
without any foundation of fact and in
volve the integrity Of the Security Trust
Company Of Lexington KY, administTd-
tor OF the Lowry estate, as well of all
the directors and officers Of the American
t'reosoting Company. The suit brought
is groundless.
i was connected with the American
Cre0sOting Company from March, 1907
until March, 1912, at which time I solo
the company. During most Of the period
mentioned ! acted IS director and treas,
urer of the company
In January. 1903, the company, through
PROPER proceedings, purchased certain
f-atents from the Lowry estate and 30
eaares Of stock Of the Columbia CreOsOt-
iag Company for $4,000 cash.
The sale Of these patents by the ad-
WiuistTator Of the Lowry estate. namely,
the Security Trust Company of Lexing
ton. Ky, was entirely regular, was uFgec
upon the creOsOtng company and, ap
parentiy. at the time was deemed most
advisable in the interests of the estate
and the individuals interested in the es-
tate, and all the transactions in connec-
ton Herewith were accompanied by for
nal court proceedings and the sale to
the ereosoting company was ordered and
approved by the probate court Of Lex
ington, Ky.
At the time Of this transfer, by rea-
son Of my being treasurer of the COM
pany, the titles were put in my name as
trustee When l sold my holdings I con-
veyed, BY proper assignment, title 10 any
property or properties which previously
stood In my name as trustee, including
10 RI q n involved
suit, to those entitled 70 continue such
i-usteeship IN the interests Of the com
fanr. as directed by the then president

PAPER SAYS INDIANA
STARTED STAMPEDE
Special to The Times.

SAN FRANCISCO, July e.-The San
Francisco Chronicle, independent news
paper attributes the start Of the Cox
Stampede to the action Of Indiana In
Withdrawing eighteen votes from Nc
Adoo Immediately after Palmer got out
Of the race.
The Chronicle says this action shook
the faith Of McAdoo delegations and gave
the impression to the released Palmer
delegates that Murphy, of New York,
Brennan, Of Illinois, and Taggart, of In
diana. had determined during the recess
to name Cox.
When Palmer withdrew Indiana was
voting for McAdoo, with the exception
of George Pigman, Of Liberty, who re-
fused to cast McAdoo vote.
During the recess, State Chairman
Bosse, of Indiana, and W. II. O'Brien
lined up the delegates for Cox, and by

lirious partisans, the scenes of which
will live long in the memories of those
who witnessed them.
The last ballot started by giving tho
Ohio governor majorities from the very
first.
As state after state fell into line for
Cox It became certain that nothing shor,
Of a miracle could stop his nomination
either on that ballot or the next sue

Every one knew it was close to a nomi-
nation. Half a dozen chairmen of deg.
cations which had voted for McAdoo,
quick to scent the drift, leaped to their
feet clamoring for recognition.
They wanted to register changes in
their votes.
They were a bit too slow Unobserved
by many, Samuel B. Amidon, national
committeeman from Kansas, and one of
the McAdoo managers, had come quietly
to the edge of the speakers platform.
He tugged at Senator Robinson's elbow.
THE gentleman from Kansas, bel
lowed Robinson above the din.
The hall was in an uproar.
Amidon raised his hand for silence
Robinson was pounding madly with his
gavel and the table was dancing under
the force of his blows.
Il move" yelled the Kansan as soon as
he could make himself heard, II move
that the nomination of Gov. James NJ
Cox be made unanimous"
For a bare instant there was a hush.
Then the hall was thrown into an uproar
again.
For five minutes the uproad continued.
Robinson fairly shivered the table with
his rain of blows from the gavel
When he succeeded in restoring a SEM
blance of order. he put the motion of the

The Palmer strength in Georgia, In

McAdoo.
