NO TRUTH
IN THE STORY
Tha Journal In in receipt of a
letter from Mayor Wuriweiler, who
la in Portland, denying tnor-t em
phatlcally that he ever mads the
Statements credited to him in a
recent article thai apjx-ared in Urn
Telegram which if preaented Mr.
Wuriweiler aa asking an opjior
lunlly to enter the mercantile
Lualneaa of Port land on large
icale. Neither hit nor hl brother
ever entertained auch an idea, and
hranda the article from beginning
to end aa a groaa fabrication. He
had no conversation, even, with a
Telegram reporter. Aa a matter
of. fact when he registered at the
Imperial Hotel the clerk waa in
atructed to keep hla name from
i , . .i . i
appearing among ine arrival o
aa to avoid publicity, and the firet
time he knew that he waa the sub
ject of a newspaper atory waa when
he waa shown a clipping from
thia pajH.r of the article in que
lion. We believe it due to Mr,
Wurrweiler and hia friends here
to aet the matter right.
