St. Petersburg, but the secret has been
well kept.
"LAtely," says the paper, "the Kmper

The Presidents reference to these men.

DID PENROSE "STRING" IiOEB?
Five Million-Dollar Conspiracy Story
Explnlncd ns Practical Joke.
WASHINGTON, April 5. (Special.) An
explanation that may rescue the Admin
istration from its peculiar position In hav
ing given out the wonderful story of a
J8.000.000 conspiracy to defeat the Presi
dent and his policies has been discovered
here today.
This story of the now famous Sena
torial dinner given to Jonathan Bourne,
the new Senator from Oregon, has it that
Senator Penrose, lacking for entertain
ment, got off a Joke on Secretary Loeb,
who was also a guest. In fact it was a
very successful case of what is slangily
known as "stringing." and the President's
confidential man swallowed the story,
"hook, bait and sinker." It is the general
opinion here that Mr. Loeb failed to see
the humor In Mr. Penrose's yarn and
took it quite, eeriously and lost no time
In reporting the matter to his chief.
When Mr. Penrose'e denial of the story
was shown to Mr. Loeb today, he still
Insisted that the essentials of the story
were correct and that there was such a
conspiracy and that the President had
the "dots" on the conspirators.
All the Senators who were at the
Bourne dinner manifested a great desire
to forget that there ever was such a din
ner and would not say anything about It.
Send Protest to Roosevelt.
NEW YORK, April 5. The executive
committee of the organization known
as the Moyer-Haywood Protest Confer
ence, announced tonight that it had
sent to President Roosvelt a letter pro
testing against the President's refer
ence to Moyer and Haywood in the let
ter addressed to Representative James
i. Sherman and recently made publlo In
connection with the E. H. Harrlman
letter incident.
SAYS IT'S ALL A FALSEHOOD
Penrose Denies Story of Conspiracy.
Supporter of Roosevelt.
PHILADELPHIA. Pa.. April 5.
United States Senator Boles Penrose
today answered the published report
that in & mellow after-dinner confi
dence he told at a banquet at the
Shoreham Hotel, attended by some of
Roosevelt's friends, of a conspiracy to
defeat for the Presidential nomination
any candidate who bears the Indorse
ment of Roosevelt.
Mr. Penrose Is said to have boast
ed that he controlled the ss dele
Kates of his state to the Republican
National Convention and could deliver
them to whom he pleased and that the
rest of the country waa equally well
controlled. Questioned today about the
"rich men's conspiracy," Mr. Penrose
said:
"It is absolutely an untruth. T have
never said such a thing. It is all un
true. I have always been a supporter
and believer in President Roosevelt's
administration and all its policies."
The Senator was asked:
"Have you ever heard of a $5,000,000
fund to prevent President Roosevelt
naming his successor?"
"No; absolutely not."
"Have you ever heard of the com
bination termed the "rich men's' con
spiracy to thwart the President in the
development of his policies?"
"No; I have never heard of any such
combination and ha.ve no knowledge of
it."
"Did you attend a dinner of such a
character as was mentioned today in
the Washington dispatches?"
"No; I never attended a dinner
where such a subject was discussed. I
could not have done so anyhow, for I
just came back from the West Indian
cruise with Secretary Metcalf and Sen
ator Flint, of California. I arrived in
Philadelphia Tuesday night after a
month's trip. During that time I did
not follow the newspapers or keep in
touch with affairs in the United
States."
NOT FAIR PLAY, SAYS HAYWOOD
Imprisoned Federatlonist Says That
Roosevelt Creates Prejudice.
DENVER. April 5. A special to The
News from Boise. Ida., contains a state
ment from William D. Haywood, secre
tary of the Western Federation of Min
ers, now in prison there, in connection
with the assassination of ex-Governor
Steunenberg. commenting upon certain
references to him by President Roose
velt in letters to Representative Sher
man of New York, given publicity re
cently through the Roosevelt-Harriman
episode. The statement reads:
"I do not desire to make an extended
statement with regard to ' Roosevelt's
refernce to me in his letter to Congress
man Sherman.
"The President's letter says I am an
"undesirable citizen." the inference be
ing that I should be put out of the way.
His influence is all powerful, and his
statement, coming as it does, on the eve
of my trial for my life, will work me
irreparable Injury and do more to prevent
a fair trial than everything that has
been said and done in the past. President
Roosevelt Is the leading exponent of the
doctrine of 'fair play and a 'square
deal,' but his reference to me In his let
ter to Sherman demonstrates that he
does not practice what he preaches."
SCHEME KILLED BY PUBLICITY
Ijoeb Believes Rich Men's Conspir
acy Nipped in Bud.
WASHINGTON. April 5 Secretary
Loeb declared today that no names were
mentioned at the Whito House yesterday
when reference was made to some public
man who had been present at a dinner
and had told the story of the alleged com
bination to defeat the President's policies
in the coming Presidential campaign. This
dinner was a comparatively recent occur
rence. Secretary Loeb said today there were no
additional details of the affair to be given
out, but he emphasized the belief which
he expressed yesterday that the publicity
which had been made of the intrigues
against the Interests of the President
would "nip the whole scheme in the bud"
before the campaign of 1908 is fully on.
Persistent efforts were made at the
White House today to obtain the name
of the person who is said to be re
sponsible for giving away the Informa
tion of the intentions ard resources
of the combination, but Mr. Loeb de
clined to make this public. .
Harrlman Says It's Absurd;
NEW YORK. April 6. E. H. Harriman
declines absolutely to talk about the re
port from Washington that Standard Oil
and associates in this city had raised a
fund of $5,000,000 to prevent the nomina
tion for President of a man of President
Roosevelt's choosing In 1S08. The comment
of Frank Q. Barstow. a Standard Oil Di
rector, was:
"It is simply absurd; that's all I have
to say."
Mr. Harriman had a talk late yesterday
with H. H. Rogers, of the Standard Oil
Company. He said at Its conclusion that
the talk was only about business matters
which were not connected In any way
with President Roosevelt.

the former stenographer for B. H. .Harrl
man, who was arrested yesterday on a

nished. Nebraska Indorses Roosevelt.

NEWS TO CHEMIST WILEY
Admits Custom of Manufacturers to
Put on Jobbers' Labels.
WASHINGTON. April 5. Dr. JHarvey
W. Wiley, Chief of t(ie Bureau of
Chemistry of the Department of Agri
culture, expressed surprise tonight
when shown a dispatch from London
in which Dr. Thomas, chief health offi
cer of Stepney, is quoted as saying that
75 per cent af the canned goods im
ported to England from the United
States are not labeled and that English
firms afterward put on their own la
bels. Dr. Wiley said he had always
supposed that such goods were fully
and correctly labeled.
"It is a common practice among
many manufacturers." said Dr. Wiley,
"not to put their own labels on their
goods, but instead the labels of the
Jobbers. It may be that goods so sent
to England are labeled with the names
of English jobbers, in harmony with
this common custom, but whether this
is done or not I have no knowledge.
Canned goods coming into this country
from foreign countries are universally
labeled, though the labels are not al
ways correct."

INSURANCE FOR LABORERS
Topic of Discussion at Dinner by
Prominent Chicago Speakers.
CHICAGO, April 6. Protection of the
working man, the laborer in the factory
and foundry who risks life and limb in
his daily vocation, was the theme which
Inspired speakers at the seventh dinner
of the Austral Club of Chicago last night.
The meeting was attended by 200. In
the gathering were many prominent men,
presidents of railroads and other corpo
rations that employ thousands of men.
Governor Deneen, Professor Herman
Schumacher, of the University of Bonn,
and IS. S. Bent, secretary of the Mutual
Employers Association, were the principal
speakers.
The topic "Industrial Insurance" was
declared opportune because of the in
creasing sentiment among employes and
employers to formulate some rational and
Just plan that will smooth over present
unsatisfactory conditions. Governor
Deneen said that the recommendations of
the Illinois committee had been embodied
In a bill, which, among other things, pro
vides for tho payment by the employer of
50 per cent of the insurance premiums.
Professor Schumacher detailed statistics
relative to Industrial Insurance in Ger
many. He said the system was 25 years
old and that Emperor William had Issued
the initial message promulgating the
theory that all workingmen had a specific
claim to protection and' that it was the
duty of the state to undertake the estab
lishment of insurance.
He declared that the rate for accident
insurance under the government law was
one-third the rate of the private com
panies. The expenses incident to accident
insurance are borne entirely by the em
ployers, he said: Insurance against sick
ness is sustained two-thirds by the em
ployers and one-third 'by the employes,
and for disability and old age the coun
try carries the whole burden. The German
professor declared that the system In
Germany had tended to decrease acci
dents, render conditions safe and sanitary
and prolong the life of the Germans.

tions of the world to assemble at no dis
tant date in international conference on
Industrial conditions and Industrial pe&ce.

TELEPHONE MEN AGAIN
(Continued from First Pap.)
wller, when told of the contents of the
Associated Press dispatch from San
Francisco saying he would endeavor to
have bonds arranged for his brother,
A. K. Detwiler, so that the latter could
surrender to the San Francisco authori
ties, stated:
"I wish to say nothing. Is that
plain enough?"
Raymond Burns, son of Secret Serv
ice Agent Burns of San Francisco,
stated tonight that he believed A. K.
Detwiler's bond would be arranged to
morrow and that he would then give
himself up. His whereabouts are still
unknown to the authorities here.
HOW DETWILER DODGED THEM
Threw Detectives Off Track by Mail
ing Postcards.
TOLEDO. O., April 5. How A. K. Det
wiler eluded the San Francisco detectives
and thereby gained time to reach a hiding
place, is told here today. The correctness
of the Information Is vouched for by one
who Is in close touch with Detwiler, and
who knows of the plan.
Foreign postcards, it is stated, were em
ployed by Detwiler to accomplish the
deception while he was touring Europe.
Secret Service men were keplng tab on
his movments, presumably through the
cards and expected to arrest him when he
landed In New York Detwiler mailed nu
merous postcards to friends and relatives
in this country from different points of
interest. According to the' informant, he
dated these cards from 10 to 12 days
later than the date of his visit. These
cards were held and mailed upon the
days designated by the dates. Through
this plan Detwiler was from 10 to 13
days ahead of the officers, who believed
they were keeping track of him. He
landed in this country a week before he
was expected and was able to reach a
hiding place before the officers Knew
whether he was in Europe or America.
The Secret Service men meantime an
nounced that he was in Egypt. At the
time this announcement was made, Det
wiler was in Battle Creek Mich.
It Is believed here that Detwiler dur
ing his trip abroad was not ignorant of
what was going on in San Francisco and
shrewdly conceived the post-card idea as
a means of deceiving the officers.

DRAG IN DIPLOMAT
Montagnini Paper Gets
Dutchman in Trouble.
POLICY IS DENOUNCED
Call on Pope's Agent to Express Dis
gust With Treatment of Church.
Negotiation With Vatican Is
Prevented by Clemenceau.
PARIS. April 6. The Figaro continues
Its publication of the Montagnini docu
ments. Among the papers brought out
today Is a letter implicating a diplomat.
It sets forth that M. do Steurs, the Min
ister of the Netherlands to France, called
upon Monsignore Montagnini and said he
wished to express personally his great re
gret at the conflict with the Vatican, con
cerning which he had reflected at length.
" M. de Steurs," writes Monsignore Mon
tagnini, "said France was becoming more
and more corrupt and that she was being
led by Free Masonry toward ruin or bar
barlous revolt. The Minister did not
hesitate to avow to me that he was dis
gusted with the conduct of the French
government toward the holy see: that he
had knowledge of Its bad faith, which
had been shown on every occasion, and
that it had sought to trample on the
decencies of diplomatic etiquette."
The Petite Republlque publishes two let
ters from Count de Bauregard to Mon
signore Montagnini, saying the writer
learns from Monsignore Cuttllnl that ex
cept fot M. Clemenceau's unlucky words
in May, 1906, M. Brland would have sent
a Charge d' Affaires to Rome to open ne
gotiations. Monsignore Cuttlini suggested
that a commitee of the French bishops
be sent to M. Briand, but objection was
made to. this because of the impossibility
of keeping such a step secret.
A letter In the Autorite says: "There
has been a meeting at the American Em
bassy between M. Briand. Denis Cochin.
Baron d'Estournelles de Constant and the
editor of a great Protestant newspaper to
discuss politics. If this were done in
America, every one would rise up. This is
the opinion of M. Cochin."
Commenting upon the letter refer
ring t M. Destuers, the Matin says
this diplomat's duty to France requires
him to give full and categoric denial
to Mgr. Montagninl's statement, and
if he cannot do this to apply for his
letters of recall.
WORLD'S BIGGEST BATTLESHIP
Japan Will Place Contract In Eng
land to Cost $11,250,000.
LONDON. April 6. It is reported here
that the largest battleship In the world,
to have a displacement of 21,000 tons, Is
to be built in England for the Japanese
government, and that a commission al
ready is on its way here from Japan for
the purpose of placing a contract with one
or more of the great shipbuilders.
It has been believed that Japan would
in the future build all her own warships,
but it is now thought that a vessel of this
size would be too great an undertaking
for her, and it is known that the Japan
ese Admiralty has a full programme for
the home yards.
The cost of this new battleship will be
about $11, 250,000.
