He made a statement to the house on

I havo been forced with roluct

tho maltreatment by tho Gorman

ly disregarded by German officers.
Our prisoners have been stripped and
maltreated In arlous ways and in

that they have been shot In cold
blood. Our officers, even when
wounded, have beon wantonly In

CHICAGO, April 27. The general
contention that tho western railroads

ipiate on transportation of packing
house products and fresh meats was
advanced today at tho western

mills and the proposed rale 11 mills
per ton mile.
Tho proposed freight advance oa
tho commodities in which tho packers

r,0,000 libel suit against Theodore
Itooievclt. The morning was spent
reading correspondence that passed
between tho Inte Senator Piatt, Col.
Roosevelt and Harnes, In vhlch It
wns shown that tho Colonel followed
Piatt's every suggestion, even becom
ing a candidate for vicc-prcjgtdent In

quest. "You nre no easy boss," de
clared tho colonel In one of his mis
sives. Tho following letter by Senator
Piatt, dated February C, 1900, was
read:
l)lcnses Vlro Presidency
"I have hardly had time to glvo the
consideration It deserves to your let
ter of February 1 nnd tho matters
Involved therein nnd am inclined to
take more time for mature delibera
tion. The vlco-prcsldentlal question
Is a very Important ono and a great
deal depends upon It."
"Did you discuss tho question In
pursuance of that letter?" asked Mr.
Harnum.
"I did."
Then this reply from Coloel
Itoose-elt dated FcbrtlaryY,l900,
was read:
"Your very klnd'note has Just beon

I had written to you that I would not
tako tho vlce-prealdentlc! nomina

until I had a chance to talk mnt

Roosevelt telegraphed to tho senator
this:
"Am greatly concerned bocaimo

Colonel Roesevelt:
"Think your absence from meet

Then Colonel Roosevolt telo
graphed: "All right. In view of your sec
