WHY PURDY
LOST ERMINE
WASHINGTON, I). C, July U.
Milton Purdy, formerly assistant at
torney and known ns a buster of
trusts testified before tho Hardwlck
sugar Investigating today that ho did
not know why tho department of Jus
tice nnd failed to prosecute tho sugar
trust for closing tho Pennsylvania
refinery at Philadelphia.
Purdy said the prosecution was nt
first delayed because Attorney Gen
eral Moody was preparing to go to
tho supremo court bench. It was
later discussed with Charles J. Bona
parte, then attorney general, who did
not know tho prosecution had been
dropped. Purdy said he gnvo Bona
parte to understand thnt ho thought
the government had a strong case.
At this point Congressman Baker
of California asked:
"Was It after this expression of
willingness to prosecute the case that
you were nominated to become a
ITnlt.Ml Stntos tiidcn?
"Yes," said Purdy.
"Do you remember," asked Raker,
"the names of the members of tho
Judiciary committee which did not
approve of your appointment?"
"Yes; they were Nelson and Over
man." "Well," remnrked Raker "then 1
guess we will let the people Judgo
for themselves why you were not
appointed; to my mind It Is clearly
shown that It was because of your
fearlessness."

Concluding, LuFollettc said:

"Rebuked at the olls by the elec

lost when he abandoned progressive
iiolicics.
"This reciprocity bill is cruelly un
just to 33,000,0(10 people engaged in

are fighting for simple justice wtih
their backs to the-wall. They are en
titled to employ every 1 egitimate
weapon against the meusure.
"Joined with tho cxcctuivc in nu

through congress nro tho newspu
Icrsf frankly admitting their selfish
interest; the railroads, the over-protected

"I have reviewed tho administra
tion's record to no good purpose
if I have not mndo it plain that the
great issue for which Roosevelt ap
pealed to the public conscience and
for which the progressives have been
appealing for years is not the tariff,
not railway regulation, not conserva
tion, it is all these, but oh, sirs, it isi
the moral of these combined. It is
for justice, denial, everlasting jus

organized selfishness and power. It
