s TO MAKE DENIAL
Standard Oil King Says He
Has Not Grafted on
Mutual Life.
PEABODY NOT HIS CHOICE
He and William Rockefeller Retire
as Trustees and Reply to Criti
cism of Anti-Administration
Party.
NEW YORK, July 17. The committee
of trustees of the Mutual Life Insurance
Company appointed to nominate a new
board of trustees to be voted for at the
annual meeting of the company in De
cember made its final report today and
In doing so disclosed the fact that Henry
H. Rogers and William Rockefeller had
withdrawn from further connection with
that body. President Peabody gave out
a personal letter from Mr. Rogers, upon
which he said he would make no com
ment. In thU letter Mr. Rogers said;
Not Responsible for Peabody.
When the troubles came upon the company.
I felt It my duty aa a trustee to stand by
and do anything I could of service to my
fellow members and the policy-holders. I be
lieve I have rendered some assistance.
The statement has been frequently made
that I caused your election to the presidency
ot the Mutual Company. Xo one knows bet
ter than you how false thl la. You know
that I had but the slightest acquaintance
with you before your election; that I never
exchanged a word with you respecting your
candidacy, nor was I in any sense the in
spiring cause of your election.
Apparently the people who are most active
In their hostility to the present administra
tion are using the fact of my connection
with the Sandard Oil Company as a ground
for criticism. While there Is a sufficient
reason for my refusal to be a candidate or
trustee, since no one has a right to put such
large interests in jeopardy for the sake of
achieving a personal vindication. It is yet
true that, aside from the relations of Mr.
Rockefeller and myself as policy-holders and
trustees, neither the Standard Oil Company
or anyone occupying an official position in
that corporation has ever in the slightest
degree had any business or any other rela
tions with the Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany; and in the case of Mr. Rockefeller,
who Is now absent, his policy matured some
months ago and was paid and he therefore
is no longur a policy-holder. He wishes to
be relieved from any further service as a
trustee.
If anyone Imagines that the Standard Oil
Company or any of Us officers have profited
out of any relation with the Mutual Life
insurance Company he must be strangely
ignorant of the facts. Neither Mr. "Ttocke
feller nor myself have been identified with
any underwriting scheme, nor have we been
engaged In any business affairs with the
Mutual Company by which we have been
ths gainers. On the other hand, we have
given business to the Mutual and its al
lied companies from which they have large
ly benefited.
Candidates for Trustees.
In giving out the list of trustees nomi
jiated by the committee the board an
nounced that acceptance had not been
received from all the candidates, but it
was said that few or no refusals were
expected. Frem a source of information
that should be authoritative. It was
learned that President Peabody would
not tv a candidate for re-election in the
sense that he would make any effort to
succeeded himself. The full ticket is as
follows:
John A. Auchincloss, George F. Baker,
Hugo Baring, Charles S. Brown, Dumont

NASHVILLE, Tenn., July 17. Colonel
M. A. 8hook, of Nashville, named on the
ticket for trustee of the Mutual Life In
surance Company, reported by the special
nominating committee, stated here to
night that he would decline to allow the
use of his name in that connection at
the annual meeting of the committee in
December. Colonel Shook is a member
of the executive board of the international
policy-holders' committee. He is also
president of the Tennessee Policy-holders"
Association.
CZAR TO KILL LIBERTY
(Continued From Page 1.)
Group of Toll, offered a substitute in
sharper language. In behalf of the group,
urging the house not to appeal to the
peasants to exercise patience, but to
pledge Parliament never to agree to any
agrarian measure not containing a clause
providing for the forced expropriation of
land.
The house was Intensely stirred by a
speech by Deputy Lidnltsky, one of its
best orators, who. in moving that a man
ifesto should be addressed to the peo
ple, said Parliament must not watt till
towns and villages are in flames and
the whole country engulfed in anarchy.
The speech was greeted with enthusi
astic cheers by the left and exclamations
of astonishment from the center and
right. M. Lldnltsky then mounted the
tribune and declared that the proposi
tion emanated from him personally and
not from any political group.
Several Constitutional Democratic mem
bers argued that a manifesto could only
bo a contradiction on the part of Parlia
ment of an official communication in
which the Government had categorically
refused to adhere to the principle ot
compulsory expropriation.
Deputy Obninsky said a manifesto would
be premature and that such a step as
its Issue ought to be regarded as the
last shell given an artilleryman to Are
at the supreme moment and not on the
occasion of the publication of a Govern
ment communication so false and calum
nious as that was. The house then con
sidered interpellations.

New Evidence That Hartje
Letters Were Forged.
NOT MRS. HARTJE'S WORK
Parents and Sister of Accused
Woman Give Strong Testimony in
Her Defense Susie Wagner
Letter Badly Garbled.
PITTSBURG, July 17. Not the least
Important development in the Hartje di
vorce trial was the outline of the defense
that was disclosed by the testimony of
Miss Ida Scott, the 16-year-old sister of
Mrs. Mary Scott Hartje, who was put
on the stand today a few minutes before
adjournment. From this testimony was
gathered for the first time the plan for
accounting for the disputed love letters
that would be followed by Mrs. Hartje's
attorneys. That she had written two or
three envelopes addressed, to "Tom"
Madlne. the coachman co-respondent, at
the request of Annie Luetz, one of the
maids, and that she had given Annie
sheets of her paper, were among the
significant statements she made.
More Evidence of Forgery.
Thus the presence of the single en
velope among all the love letters pre
sented by counsel for the libelant would
be explained. The charge of forgery
made by counsel for the respondent will
be reinforced by accounting for the
presence in the disputed letters of the
paper used by the Scott girls in the man
ner indicated by Ida's testimony that
she gave It to her maid. Her sister.
Helen, also often gave sheets of her
paper to the servants, she testified.
It is expected that Annie Luetz will be
next called and interrogated as to what
she did with the envelopes addressed by
Ida Scott and with the latter's paper
given to her.
Meetings. With Madine Impossible.
Mrs. Hartje's parents. Mr. and Mrs.
John F. Scott, were witnesses during the
day. Mr. Scott declared that it was Im
possible for his daughter to have met
Madine or to have telephoned to him,
as she was never out of the house alone
and all In the Scott home usually knew
when the telephone rung.
James Tuff and James H. Orr, both
connected with local banks, said that
Mrs. Hartje, in their opinion, did not
write the "Susie Wagner" letter, as dicf
also J. H. Nleeley.

Hartje, testified that she had seen the
Susie Wagner letter before it was mailed
to Susie Wagner by her daughter and
followed this by the statement that there
were some things in the letter which
Mrs. Hartje wrote, but which were not
in the letter shown in court and known
as exhibit No. 6, and that there was one
statement in the letter shown in court
which was not in the original letter.
Mother Defends Daughter.
Mrs. Scott further said she had ex
amined the letters in the case and that
the alleged letters from her daughter to
Tom Madine were not In her daughter's
handwriting. She said it would have
been impossible for the defendant to
have met Madine without the knowledge
of the witness.

letters were not in Mrs. Hartje's hand

Ex-Police Commissioner Says He
Can Prove Charges of Graft.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 17. Ex-Police
Commissioner Thomas Reagan, who was

Schmitz, after refusing to resign, today
addressed another letter to the Mayor,
asking an opportunity to prove the
charges he has already made in the Su
perior Court. Reagan, in his communi
cation, reiterates the charges of graft
preferred in his first letter, and quotes
additional alleged instances of the May
or's misuse of authority.
In concluding the epistle, Reagan af
firms that he "stood aloof from graft of
all kinds at a time when everything
around him smelled to high heaven."
Mayor Schmitz is at present in Santa

ranged by the labor forces of the city.

Gibson Tells How Sharp Practice
Deprived Mrs. Kinnan of Prop
erty for His Benefit May
Be Held for Murder.
NEW YORK, July 17. Burton W. Gib
son, formerly counsel for Mrs. Alice Kin
nan, who was mysteriously murdered on
the night of June 8 in the old homestead
in the Bronx occupied by her mother.
Mrs. L. M. Stenton, and herself, was to
night committed to the Tombs by order
of Coroner McDonald, In default of $25,000
bail. This action followed the close of the
Coroner's inquest, when the jury brought
in a verdict that Mrs. Kinnan was mur
dered by a person or persons unknown,
and recommended that Gibson be held for
examination by the grand jury.
Gibson occupied the stand during the
greater part of today's session. He said
Mrs. Kinnan engaged him to defend
squatter proceedings which had been in
stituted against her property and estab
lished her right to title. After prolonged
litigation the property was sold In Sep
tember, 1905, for $G5,000, ostensibly - to
Archibald M. McFarland, but in reality
to Gibson, and nine months after was re
sold for $90,000. Of the profit. Gibson ad
mitted $20,000 was to, go to himself and
the rest to his father, McFarland and
John Kelly, who were associated In the
deal. It appeared that the only money
received by Mrs. Stenton was $8000 given
her by a lawyer, Asheton, who acted with
Gibson in the legal proceeding.
Gibson admitted that after the musder
he had visited the Stenton house and had
removed certain documents and articles
of value. This he claimed he had a right
to do, and declared that he notified the
police at that time.

Pendleton Musician Secures the Famous
Weber Art Piano.
durability. There are today in daily use in Oregon, Weber pianos that have
been used constantly for over 35 years.
But, while the beauty of its tone is as it should be, the main feature
of this elegant piano, the case itself is worthy of extended description. The
design is of that graceful and yet massive character which distinguishes the
Weber product in everything they do, and the case is made of built-up layers
of marblewood, technically known as dyospyros Kurzii, which is native in
the British Burmas, the Andaman Islands (a chain of islands to the east of
Bengal), and occasionally it is also found in certain parts of the Philippines.
It properly belongs to the ebony family, is very hard, and of course quite
expensive.
The richness of the markings of deep brown and almost black on a
background of a very rich natural tan color, under the new French or dull
finish, instead of the usual glossy American finish, is simply beyond descrip
tion. The instrument is not to be delivered until late in the Fall, and it is
hoped that alterations in the new store will be far enough under way before
that time so that this exquisite piano may be placed on exhibition once more
where all can see it.
The piano was purchased by Mr. W. A. Slusher, a wealthy sheep ranch
er, for his new home in Pendleton. Mrs. Slusher is a very accomplished mu
sician, and no doubt this Weber piano will prove an important factor in the
social and musioal life of the fine and prosperous little inland city.

cannot possibly be conveyed

The piano itself is of the
renowned Weber make, pos

tone, which has been the de

musician ever since the first
masterpieces of Albert Web

e o m b i ned with a purity,
sweetness and sympathy, the
Weber tone excels anything
produced in grand or upright
pianos in this country and
abroad, and coupled with
this is the proverbial and
