SENATE DEBATE IS HOT tConttnued FTem Ftret race.) seen neither the Attorney-Ueneral nor the IT.ilJent for a month. Kpeelfk- laforaaatlaa Asked Far. Senator Clark, of Wyoming, pointed out that the Johnston resolution dif fered from the others In that It called for certain specific information. He and Senator Nelson gave Instances In which Colonel Roosevelt, when Presi dent, had withheld correspondence from the Bureau of Corporations. Sen ator Brlstow remarked that evidently there was no disposition on either side of the chamber to criticise President Taft. to which Senator Williams pro tested vigorously. "If the Senator can show me the, present President has traveled in the same way as the former President. I 111 condemn him as strongly as I would Hoosevtlt." he said. "It would have to be a matter of crave public concern In which vital In terests of the country were affected." returned Senator Bristow. "before I wonld dig up the confidential corres pondence of my predecessor's secretary and his cabinet officers In regard to matters In which he had a perfect right to believe would be kept within the confidence of the department and print them for political campaign pur poses." 'llllassa Fears Caeaarlaas. Senator Williams, speaking from the center aisle of the Senate, discussed the "third terra." "Are you going to come out for a third - term?" he demanded. "Are. you going to forget what Washington. Jef ferson. Jackson, Lincoln and McKlntoy did and saidT- Are you going to put all that behind you because of a little keynote phrasing?" lie declared that If Americana were not careful they might sink Into Cae sarlsm. He referred to the former President as "Saint Theo" and said that when Mr. Roosevelt had f spoken of good trusts and bad trusts, he had meant to Imply that the trusts support ing the Administration must be dealt with leniently, while those who fought It must be treated severely. "Perkins had said he would fight the Administration and he said It out loud," said Mr. Williams, "when be was not willing to play In the Presi dent's backyard If the President could not play riaht." Mr. Hrlstow closed the debate with a defense of Colonel Roosevelt. XOXs-KXSK." COLOXEI, REPLIES Supprc-.-ion of Report Denied In Statement From Oyster Bay. OYSTER BAY. X. Y.. April 3. "The talk about the suppression of the re port is nonsense." said Colonel Roose velt tonight In a statement setting forth his connection with the Interna tional Harvester Company case. The Colonel asserted that at a meet ing with his Cabinet, at which Mr." Taft was present. It was decided that the Bureau of Corporations be In structed to complete It investigation of the harvester company before suit was Instituted, following the usual course of procedure In such cases. Mr. Taft. he added, concurred In this de cision. lurlng the rest of his Administra tion, a period of a year and a half, the Colonel said, the Commissioner of Cor porations was unable to complete his investigation. He said that In the three years of the present Administra tion Mr. Taft at any time could have ordered the Attorney-General to bring suit against the harvester company or could have requested the Commissioner of corporations to hasten his investi gation, but that Mr. Taft had taken no action, "except that now taken five days before the Massachusetts pri mary." CaadldaO la lnoi, Xmt B 1M7. Colonel Roosevelt also said that when the Northern Securities suit was lironcrht against the Morgan interests In ISO, he was expecting to run for President, but that when the harvester company matter came up In 107 he knew lie would not be a candidate the Mowing year, so that if the action taken in this case did secure the good will "of any of the Morgan Interests for anybody. It secured their good will for Mr. Taft." The statement of Colonel Roosevelt In part follows: "As regards the harvester trust mat ter the following statement sent to me by Mr. Bonaparte, my Attorney-General at the time, and Herbert Knox Smith, then, as now. Commissioner of Corporations, explain themselves. Mr. Bonaparte wrote: " "When I became Attorney-General I found a number of complaints on file about the Harvester trust, and some of these were so serious and specific that I directed an Investigation, appointing B. D. Townsend. then Assistant I'nlted States Attorney in one of the Dako tas. as special counsel for the sub Jwl. He worked ver slowly and while we were awaiting his report I received Information from other quarters and also an elaborate brief and argument (submitted by Cravath. If I remember right) In defense of the trust and made up my mind that suit ought to be In stituted for Its dissolution. Smith's laveallgatloa Peadlag. " 'I then learned from Herbert Knox Smith that he was engaged In an In vestigation of the affairs of the Har vester trust directed by the Senate, tinder a resolution. 1 think, by Senator Har.sbrough, of either North or South Dakota. "Smith said the institution of a suit against the trust would put a stop to his Investigation and I reported the situation of affairs at. a Cabinet meeting. "'After a full, but harmonious discus sion. It was decided on the advice of Secretaries .... and Taft. that inasmuch as either house bad a right under the law creating the Bureau of Corporations to direct an Investiga tion bv the bureau, this Investigation of Smith's must be considered as one 1 conducted by the Senate Itself and It would be appropriate for the Pepart ment of Justice to await Its conclu sion before proceeding with the suit. " 'You never gave me any instruc tions of any kind about the mi It. I have an Indistinct recollection that you asked me to see somebody who wished to talk with me about It, or on behalf of the trust, and think It probable this was Cravath. as 1 knew he gave me his brief and other papers. Of course, you had nothing to do with preventing the Institution of the suit, except Insofar as you acquiesced In the view taken by the Cabinet to the effect that owing to the provisions of the bureau of cor porations act, delay was demanded by comity toward the Senate.' Perklaa' Prateit Reel tea. "Mr. Smith writea me In two com munications. In the first he recites that on August 24. 1907, he met me at New York, where he said that Mr. Perkins protested against any suit (which he, Mr. Perkins, then under stood to be pending) being brought against the Harvester trust while the Investigation by the bureau was still pending: that on August 2 he called on me at Oyster Bay and advocated my carrying out the policy of seeing that the bureau's Investigation was finished b.tore any suit was started, on the ground that the Investigation would be far more effective for reform" than any suit: that the suit being; a civil and not a criminal proceeding, no statute of limitations applied and consequently haste was not essential, and. finally, that If the corporation was a substan tial offender, the suit would have vastly more chance of successful prosecution after the bureau got through Its work. "Mr. Smith states that I gave him no Instructions except to go and see the Attorney - General. Mr. Bonaparte, at once, which he did next day. He adds that on September 21 he wrote me a Ion? memorandum setting forth the facts and giving his views on the gen eral subject, and that on November 7 he notified I'erkins verbally In accord ance with my Instructions that the bureau's Investigation would come first. Fall BeMsmlblllty Assumed. 'Mr. Perkins and Commissioner Smith railed upon me In reference to the harvester trust matter at about the same time. I submitted all the papers handed to me by Mr. I'erkins to the Attorney -General and asked Commissioner Smith to see the Attor ney-General himself, and I aaked the Attorney-General not to take up the cr.se until he had seen me. This was the request I Invariably made in every case of the kind. 'While I wt-s Presi dent I expected each of my Cabinet officers to keep me In toucl. with evcry lmportant matter in his office, and I assumed full responsibility for what was done. 'In many scores of cases, men of every description trust magnates, la bor leaders, public officials, private citisens came to me when action either had been taken or the possibility of taking it was pending in cases In which they were Interested and asked that I look Into the case personally before permitting- the action to go on. In all such cases, unless I was already thor oughly familiar with the facts, I wrote to whatever department was concerned, or verbally notified its head, to bring the case before me and not to come to a decision upon the matter until after consultation with me. Dosens of let ters to this effect from me must be on file In the various departments, and in addition to these dosens of lettere there must have been scores of other cases in which I made the request orally, often by telephone, where no written record exists. Precedes t for Aetloa Foaad. "Among other cases, for Instance. I remember thus seeing Plerpont Morgan at the time that we were beginning the Northern Securities suit against htm. and Mr. Hill and others, and I saw a number of representatives of the Standard Oil people on several dif ferent occasions at the time we began the suit against the Standard Oil Com pany. I saw various labor leaders at the time of the proceedings against Moyer and Haywood: and again I saw men in cases that were pending or were about to begin in the lepartment of the Interior. In the Treasury De partment and In the Attorney-General's office. "In this harvester trust case I acted precisely as I acted In all the other rases, and as under like circumstances I should always act. and any other ac tion would have been grossly Improper. The 'talk about the suppression of the report Is nonsense. The Buresu of Corporations has never made report on the subject. The letter of Commissioner Smith to me protesting amlnst action by the Department of Justice, followed exactlv the same course as was fol lowed "with all such letters that I re ceived. Colosel'a PosJlloa Summarised. "Let rne sum up: "1. I took precisely the action In the Harvester trust case that I took in all .i-.ii.. "2. I am entirely responsible for the action taken, but it was taken with the full approval of the entire Cabinet. In cluding Mr. Taft. who was a member of the Cabinet. "2. There remained at the time less than a year and a half of my adminis tration. During this time, for the reas ons given by Mr. Smith, he was not able to furnish the report ordered by the Senate. During this period. as Mr. I J-mlth writes me, the only Instructions 1 gave him In regard to the report were orders intended to facilitate its prepa ration and publication. "4. Over three years have elapsed since Mr. Taft became President. Dur ing this entire time the letter of Mr. Smith has been tn the office of the Attorney-General and Mr. Taft cannot have forgotten the debate about it in the Cabinet meotlng when he was a member of the Cabinet and in which be took part. During these three years Mr. Taft st any time could have or dered the Attorney-General to proceed against the Harvester trust with re gard to the report, or have requested the Commissioner of Corporations either to hurry up the report or to tlve him the reasons why it was impossible to hurry it up. s Vnt oniv did I not suppress any papers connected with the case, but I left every pper on file either in ine DeDartment of Justice or In the Bu reau of Corporations and if anything wrong had been done either in the way of omission or commission, the Ad ministration had three years and two months In which to correct the wrong. Johasoa Lorlmer Supporter. "6. Mr. Taft has been over three years in the White House. During that period he has had ample time either to publish the facts or to take action against the Harvester trust. He has taken no action except that now taken, five days before the Massachusetts pri mary. "7. This matter was brought up In the Senate on the motion of Senator Johnston, who. as a member of both committees to investigate Mr. Lorimer. has been his earnest supporter and ad vocate. The conditions under which it was passed and responded to give ground for the belief that the pre-arranged purpose was to show that some Improper reasons had favored the Har vester trust and the Morgan Interests. When under my Administrations the Northern Securities suit was brought against Mr. Morgan. I was expecting to run and. as n matter of fact, did run for' President in 104. When this Har vester trust matter camo up It was certain that I was not going to run and Mr Taft expected to run and I ex pected that he would run in 108. The action that I took against Mr. Morgan was taken when I personally was-to pav for anv consequences resulting from Mr. Morgan's ill will. If the ac tion taken in the Harvester trust did secure the good will of that trust, or anv of the Morgan Interests for any body, it secured their good will for Mr. Taft. "But. as a matter of fact. In neither case did I consider in any way whether nry support would be gained, for or alienated from either me or Mr. Taft. In both cases and in all other cases of the kind. I consider nothing hut what w as demanded by right and Justice. SMITH IXQIIRY LOXG DRAWN Bonaparte Sas Colonel Finally Gave Consent to Suit. BALTIMORE. April 25. Respecting President Roosevelt's letter ro Attorney-General Bonaparte, directing the latter to withhold the anti-trust suit against the International Harvester Company, contained In the correspond ence sent to the Senate yesterday by tlie Department of Justice, former Attorney-General Bonaparte said today: "The letter in question was written when I was absent from Washington and when an investigation by the De partment of Justice was In progress In regard to the affairs of the hsrvester trust, but before any report had been made to the department, or any de cision reached by It. "Several months later, after the de partment bad received a full report from its representative, a Mr. Town send. I announced to the President that I was ready to Institute a suit for the dissolution of the harvester trust. It was then ascertained that the Bureau of Corporations had not yet completed Its Investigation of the same Harvester trust (which It was conducting by di rection of a resolution of the Senate), and. the matter being submitted to the Cabinet. It was derided that the suit should await the conclusion of Mr. Her bert Knox Smith's inquiry. "It waa supposed then that this would cause but a. short delay. The inquiry lasted, however, not only dur ing the remaining year of Mr. Roose velt's administration, but during some three years of Mr. Taft's administra tion, and so far as I know is not yet finished. "The President's letter of August. 1907, did not In any wise delay or af fect the action of the Department of Justice, and when I told lilm I thought the suit should be undertaken, which probably was five or six months later, he Immediately acquiesced. "The only Impediment was the dis covery that Mr. Smith's inquiry still was unfinished and his (Mr. Smith's) statement that he could not complete it if the suit should be brought."

ST 201 8 S6 18 .-It delegates at large contested. ST. LOriS. April 25. (Special.) The Missouri Republican state conven tion at a late hour tonight was in deadlock over the choice of delegates to tha National convention. Confer ences showed prospect of continuing far Into the early hours of the morn ing. Dispute arose over the terms of an agreement thought to have been reached to unite the pactions by di cldinir the delegation. At all o'clock, because of the Taft leaders' contention that the Iladley Nagel agreement had been to divide the delegation, four ami four, steno graphic notes of the conference had been fent for. The Taft men were con tending that they had been sold out. The conference probably will continue all night. The Taft men were em phatic in charging had faith. E. L. Morse, of Kxcelslor Springs, a Toft leader, blamed Secretary NageL "Cntil the Secretary came here we had the fight won." he said, angrily. "He began making compromlsts, and as a result we find a Roosevelt vic tory." Morse is regarded as the political manager of IL C. Kerens, Ambassador to Austro-Hungary and a Taft ap pointee. Morse's complaitn was joined in by numerous other Taft leaders. They said they had been led Into a trap by Governor Hadley and the Roosevelt leaders. Representative Bar- tholdt was another leader who ex pressed .indignation. The convention, which up until 7 o'clock tonight bore every Indication of being a Taft affair, with the Roose-velt-Hadley delegates holding a rump session, did not get started until 8:30 o'clock. Only a temporary organiza tion was effected and the session ad journed until tomorrow. Whether President Taft will be in dorsed Is still in doubt, as both sides refuse to talk on this subject. It is probable that the Roosevelt forces will get a majority of delegates-at-large inemuch as the state com mittee, after a, riotous session lasting all day. In accordance with the com promise, seated several Roosevelt state convention delegates. PORTLAND NUPTIALS FAIL Alice Alden Married in Rose City In 1908 Gets Decree. OREGON CITY, Or., April 25.
