Says In Defense of His Talk.
Mai Albert or Albert '& Frage
"company, 200 Front street, admits In
his answer to the $10,000 action for
slander brought against him by 8. S.
Silverman. Portland attorney, that h
called Silverman a thief and a crook
on May iat llt, and alleges,as a dej
fense that the derogatory remarks
were trwe In every respect. .
' In the 'damage suit against Albert
he is charged with making slanderous
statements that damaged the attorney's
reputation in' the .community ana m
tiiri him socially and financially to
the extent of $19,000.
- The reply of Albert filed today de
nies thkt Silverman is a lawyer or has
Any knowledge of law or its fundament
al principles. It denies that he ever en
Joyed a large or lucrative practice or
possessed the confidence or respect "of
his clients, friends-or the community at
' large. ? . .
' Albert-says further that when Silver
man holds himself out to the public as
a. muri to be trusted he enjoys the same
position as does the spider , to the fly.
In his dealings with .the attorney, Al
bert admits he played the part of the
-fly.M ' ' ' :
As a Justification Tor his attacks upon
the attorney, Albert says that he gave
Silverman a note for $255 to collect and
that the attorney collected it and then
told him he had lost! the not. In Feb-
" ruary. ,1818, Albert ' says he secured
positive evidence that the note bad been
paid Silverman but the attorney still
withheld the, money.
Calling Silverman a disgrace to his
. profession and averring that' he should
be disbarred, indicted and incarcerated
. the answer " reiterates the words "thief

"Even, during .themost critical period

at the same -time, like a good agricul

While he declined to discuss the case
with a correspondent who visited hint

said lauehlnzly. "I ll get the news of the

start away within a few days, while
the libel case probably will not reach

During one of his last days on the

summoning to the White - House of
Senator James E. WaUon of Indiana,
President Vilson'exiati8ted the list
of Republican senators with whom
he desired to discuss the peace treaty
and the lague of Nations. It is not
believed any further conferences, ex
cept with 'toemooratio senators, win
b held. : Kr::::rAx-j ;-r;
At the beginning- the president sent
for; those, senators whom, he believed
would bemost likely to yield to per
suasive arguments in favor of accepting
the treaty and the League of Nations
Just' as they came from the Paris- con
ference. The president 'then worked tip
the scale, until he has reached the point
where no more senators can be called
except ' the irreconcilables, with -Whom
it would be -entirely : futile to induct
any argument in support of unreserved
ratification of the treaty. v v
The Republican senators who have not
been called' are t r Lodge, Knox, Borah,
