HYDE GIVES IIP FIGHT
Chief Statistician Resigns to
Save His Health.
OFFICE NOT WORTH TIME
Says He HasiBeen Repeatedly Inrcs
gatcd. and Vindicated Wilson
Testifies to "His Ability
and Integrity.
WASHINGTON. July 18. The resigna
tion o John Hyde, statistician and chief
of the Bureau of Statistics of the De
partment of Agriculture, was handed to
Secretary "Wilson todav and promptly
accepted. Wlllett N. Hays, the assistant
secretary of agriculture, has been placed
in charge of the bureau temporarily.
Mr. Wilson and other officials of the
department stated that Mr. Hyde has not
been Implicated in any manner in the ir
regularities that resulted in the dismissal
of Edwin S. Holmes, the associate sta
tistician, whom secret service operatives
charged with being guilty of giving to
brokers advance figures of cotton crop
statistics. In his letter to the secretary.
Mr. Hyde takes notice of the fapt that
he will be criticised for resigning under
Are and in defense says there has never
been a time when he was not under fire.
He declares that an organization, mean
ing the cotton-growers, is bent upon get
ting him out of the Government service
and that Ills' health will not' permit him
to continue so unequal a struggle.
There is considerable speculation as to
the probable successor of Mr. Hyde. One
name suggested Ifc that of B. W. Snow, of
Chicago, statistician for well-known farm'
journals and once an assistant statis
tician under J. R. Dodge, chief of the
bureau about twelve years ago. Mr.
Dodge was In charge at the time the
present system of gathering crop sta
tistics was devised.
Hyde "Weary of Struggle.
Mr. Hyde, in his letter of resignation,
said lnpart:
Dear Mr. Sccretarj" Durlnc the last four
years, or sine I succeeded In making- the
crop reports of the department reasonably ac
curate and correspondingly valuable to the
agricultural and commercial Interestfl of the
country, the administration of" the office I
have had the honor to bold has been constantly
under Are from one side of the market or the
other. Five times It ha been Investigated,
and on every occasion I have been vindicated.
In January. 1003, I was awarded $2500 dam
ages In a libel suit against a prominent Arm
of cotton brokers by a Jury of their own friends
and fellow-citizens. These results have been
very gratifying to me, but I have the highest
medical authority for the statement that the
continued light upon me has already consid
erably shortened my life. At the present time
it is an accepted fact that a powerful organ
ization is bent upon bringing about my re
tirement by one means or another. Now. I
do not think the position I hold is worth
the fight necessary to its retention, and the
organization in question is welcome to what
ever satisfaction it can derive from my with
drawal. "lth much appreciation of the uniform cour
tesy and kindness you have shown me, and of
the- many tokens of confidence 1 have received
from you, 1 am, most respectfully yours,
JOHN HroE.
Wilson Says Hyde's Honest.
In accepting the resignation of Mr.
Hyde, Mr. Wilson said:
Dear Sir: I am In receipt of your resigna
tion as statistician of this department. In ac
cepting It. I cheerfully tertlfy to the ability
with which you have discharged the heavy and
difficult duties of the office since you were
first appointed. The accuracy of your reports
has been recognized by the public generally,
and I am clad to be able to testify, with re
gard to the charges made against the Integrity
of the Bureau of Statistics, that no facts have
been brought to my attention implicating you
in any way. I regret that falling health should
compel you to bring your work to an end.
WORKINGS OF PLOT EXPOSED
Wilson Has Uetter Telling How Cot
ton Reports Were Joggled
NEW YORK. July 18. A letter is now
in the hands of Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson, says the Herald, the contents of
which have been nworn to, that relates
In detail methods said to have been pur
sued in the alleged falsification of the
Government cotton report June 2. The
communication purports to expose the en
tire Inner workings of the plan. No in
formation is vouchsafed by the Herald
as to the writer of the letter, but he is
said to be one of the men whose connec
tion with the affair is a matter of publlo
knowledge, but whose identity is with
held for the present.
The assertions contained in the letter,
continues the Herald, relate In minute de
tail the precise manner in which the of
ficial report was tampered with; who took
part in the operation; to what extent the
fraud, was perpetrated, and where and
liow the proofs of the charges in the let
ter may be found.
Richard Cheatham and Harvle Jordan,
respectively secretary and treasurer of
the Southern Cotton-Growers' Association,
who, with the active co-operation of
several New York men. have conducted a
private investigation here, are now in
Washington, where they expect to confer
with Secretary Wilson over the contents
of the letter.
That the letter is accurate in its infor
mation is declared beyond doubt. An
outline of its contents has been given to
Morgan H. Beach, District Attorney or
the District of Columbia, one of the of
ficials empowered to take up the inves
tigation, and it was this development that
brought Mr. Beach to New York Monday
to enter into consultation with the coun
sel retained by the Southern Cotton-Growers
Association and take over the evi
dence they had discovered.
MANUFACTURERS TO BE HEARD

Changing Cotton Reports.

Manufacturers' Association, today
wired Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
as follows:
An extraordinary meeting of the board of
governors of the American Cotton 'Manu
facturers Association is called to meet In
this city on July 20 to consider the proposi
tion of the Southern Cotto&growers Associa
tion and others to reopen and revise the fig
ures on the acreage as promulgated by the
June report of your department. The cot
ton manufacturers of the world using American-grown
cotton have confidence In the re
port of your bureau until such unbiased evi
dence Is produced as win have a tendency to
weaken this confidence. The manufacturers
of cotton desire only the true results and
are opposed to any attempt at coercion of
any character whatsoever.
The object of our proposed meeting Is for
the purpose of selecting a committee, not to
exceed three In number, which will proceed
to Washington prosptly to confer with you
in about the same capacity as other Inter
ests In cotton are sow btlnr represented a&d
we would respectfully request that yeu grant
such an audience as Is craved herein before
any decision lg determined en Tsy yeu tewareW
revising your June report. U sch revision is
contemplated by you. We also rettK that
you name a date in the near future which
will be agreeable to you to receive this committee.
Wilson Will See Committee.
WASHINGTON, July IS. Secretary
Wilson received the telegram of Presi
dent Miller, of the American Cotton
Manufacturers' Association, late this
afternoon. He replied that lie would
see the committee of three, which the
association appointed to send to Wash
ington, "or any other respectable body
which wanted to see him on the sub
ject of the June cotton-acreage report.
He suggested, howex'er, that the com
mittee confer with him before August
1. The question of revising:' the June
report. Mr. Wilson said, was still under
consideration, and would depend some
what upon the decision of Assistant
Secretary Hays, who has been desig
nated Acting Chief Statistician.
SENT BACK TO BONAPARTE
Navy-Yard Mechanics Appeal for
Half-Holiday Is Vain.
OYSTER BAY. July IS. A request was
received by President Roosevelt from a
committee representing Columbia Lodge.
No. 174, International Association of Me
chanics, of Washington, D. C, for an In
terview with him here regarding the
granting of a Saturday half-holiday to
the machinists of Washington Navy-Yard
during the Summer months.
The President sent the committee to
Secretary Bonaparte. Informing it that
the Secretary's determination of the mat
ter would be final and that he himself
must decline to make it a subject of re
view. Mr. Bonaparte had decided that the con
dition of work at the yard made a half
holiday impossible at present, and the
men determined to appeal to the President.
STEAM INTO THE ICE-PACK
PEARY'S STEAMER WILI TRY TO
REACH LATITUDE 83.
Wireless Telegraph Will Report
Progress to Base at Etah Ex
pects to Lose Steamer.
NORTH SYDNEY. C. B., July IS.
Captain Bartlett, who is to take com
mand of the steamer Roosevelt in the
Peary Arctic expedition, has arrived
here to await the arrival of the Roose
velt. Commander Peary Is expected to
morrow. It is thought the Roosevelt will
sail from here on Thursday.
Captain Partlett stated today that he
hoped to pilot the Roosevelt to a point
300 miles north of Etah in latiudc 83. or
to a point farther north than any steamer
has previously reached except the Fram,
in which the Nansen expedition drifted
to latitude Si.
Their base will be at Etah. which will
be connected with stations further north
by wireless telegraph, so that all move
ments may be reported to Etah.
Captain Bartlett expresses doubt
whether the s'.eamer can be brought
back. He thinks it likely that she will
be crushed in the ice- In that event the
expedition will work back over the ice
to Etah, there to join a relief steamer.
The crew will consist of eight picked
Newfoundlander.
