I ' ''.''-' Mr. Bowen Is scathingly denounced fcy 'the president, who declares his conduct reprehensible' He la accused of . dis loyalty to the United States, of slander ing his superior, of hunting up scsndal and gossip and of entire unfitness in ths service. 4 . ' The letter accompanied Secretary Taft'a report on the proceedings. The latter Is a volumlnoua document review. Ing the charges and the evidence taken. Mr. Loomls is Justified and has been "most cruelly slandered." The presi dent saya in part:' -'. -"V ' . "It appeara from the testimony that Caracaa . la seething with seandal and that all' kinds of accusations are rife, not merely against Mr. Loomls and Mr. Bowen, but agalnat .practically every other -diplomatic repreeentativa there. There Is no excuse whatever for repeat ing the Injurious .and malicious gossip circulated about these various men.. Mr. Bowen himself, however, has not only furnished and. brought forward a great deal of such gossip about Mr. ' Loomls, but has evidently been one of the main sources from which It originated. "Mr. Bowen asked one of the men he himself produced as a witness," Senor Pastor to enter into the employ of a certain company for the purpose of ob taining (In i plain ' wordsr-of stealing) documents which he hoped might In criminate Mr. Loomls. "He ltaa evidently for many months, Indeed, for the 'two lat. years,' devoted himself to hunting up every piece of scandal or gossip of which he heard affecting Mr. Loomls,' un t i 1 tt has caused him to -show complete Msloyalty to the service to which ha belongs, and there fore to the country which he has repre sented. . "It was his duty to make known to hla superior officers any facta reflecting on the honesty of Mr. Loomls or any ether officials, but It was a breach of his duty to make loose and reckless chargea, and especially to give these chargea public currency sfter their submission for Investigation by the depsrtment. "Mr. Bowen'a conduct is especlslly reprehensible because of the damage It haa undoubtedly done to the- intereat of This" country. We'-ftoM a peculiar position toward .our ' later republics lying south of us. In all our dealings With these republics wa should endeavor not.: merely to act . courteously. Justly snd generously, but to make it evident tkat we-sre thus acting. Any corrupt dealings, any -misconduct by one of our representatives to these countries calls for the sternest punishment; and save only corrupt dealings, the .wost and wmicw scat rrrvfO pauvmgs- ,ly V ry sw most flagrant misconduct of which one of . these representatives can be guilty Is to give currency to. or secure the publication of, scandalous attacks upon the service of which he is a member or upon one of his superiors, a responsible head of that service; for such attacka are certain to be circulated to the dis credit of our government and our pr pie, not only In the newspapers of our own country, but In the newspapers ol the various Latin-American republics. No matter how baseless they sre; no matter how complete the refutation -of the chargea. they do a damage that con not be whnllr repaired.
