original rrencn company, ana quotes extensively from the testi
mony taken before the investigating committee of tho Benate,
which went into the canal affair in 1006, and of William Nelson
Cromwell's persistent refusal to answor the most pertinent
questions of Senator Morgan, of Alabama, whose work the
World says was interrupted by his death.
The World quotes extensively and apparently refutes beyond
doubt the statement of President Roosevelt that "the United
States did not pay a cent of the $40,000,000 to any Amorloan
citizen. The government paid the $40,000,000 to the French
government, getting the receipt of the liquidator appointed by
the French government to reoolve the same."
The World says the only one man who knows how the money
was distributed is Cromwell, and that "Roosevelt and Boot were
the two men most in Cromwell's confidence, and the paper
charges it was they who aided Cromwell in consummating the
Panama revolution, arranged the terms of the purchase of the
canal and made the agreement to pay $40,000,000 on the
canal properties, and an additional $10,000,000 for a manufac
tured Panama republic, every penny of which was paid by
check on the United States treasury to J. P. Morgan & Company,
and not to the French government, as Roosevelt says, but to J. P.
Morgan & Company."
The World says the property of the bankrupt DoLesscps
Company could have been purchased for $5,000,000, and that
an American company was formed with dummy dlrcotora to take
over the property, an Ametican company organise by Crom
well getting most of the money.
