"Will any man tell me why a monopoly was ever organized in this world ex cept for the purpose of extorting money? There was never a monopolist on this earth who In the center of his heart was not a thief, and there never will be." Senator Reed. then described the formation of the Harvester Trust, referring to the fact that a Mr.

Lane prepared five identical contracts to be signed by each of the Ave constituent companies of the Harvester Trust. Each of these contracts recited that the seller shall take his pay in the stock of a company to be, capitalized at $120,000,000 and to transfer all the property of the particular concern to him, "Now a lot of ordinary thick-headed criminals," the Senator proceeded, "who never undertook to rise above the dignity of robbing hen coops, would have sense enough to know that such a subterfuge as that would never stand in any law or morals If the facts were once dragged forth. "The contracts were executed at substantially the same time by all five of these concerns. Thus Lane became the nominal dummy holder of all the property of the constituent companies. The Government declares that for 10 years this fiction has been put upon the country, and the Government demonstrates, from the records that its position Is correct.

"Corporation Is i'ow, all this property having been transferred to Dummy Lane, they, on August 12, 10O2, organized a corporation with six dummy Directors. Dummy Lane thereupon transmitted a proposition by one of the dummy Directors to -the other dummy Directors to sell to this company for $120,000,000 of its stock all of the property of these five great concerns. "Thereupon the dummy director sut-mitted the propositions of dummy Lane the other flvedummy directors. whereupon the sixth dummy director appointed a committee of three dummy directors to consider Lane's proposition. The three dummies solemnly considered dummy Lane's dummy proposition and reported back to their three associate "The dummies then resolved solemnly to accept Lane's proposition.

Cleary to-day and said: "Mr. Cleary, I've come to tell you that I have married your daughter Anna, and that she is waiting in New York until I can telephone your forgiveness." Cleary pulled a revolver from the drawer and shot his son-in-law dead. Three bullets entered the youth's body.

Then he gave himself up to the police, who telephoned to New Tork and found that Mrs. Cleary had already forgiven the eloping daughter and was with her, awaiting the father's assent.

Washington. July 23. Theodore Roosevelt's request that he be beard by the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations In opposition to the Colombian treaty, under the terms of which the United States would pay $25,000,000 for the Panama Canal strip and express regret that anything should have taken place "to mar the friendly relations Detween the two countries," remained unanswered by the committee to-day, and no decision will be reached for another week. Democratic members of the committee and Administration leaders generally are said to be opposed to holding hearings with relation to the treaty.

Senator Stone, Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, to-day reiterated his declaration that the former President had said all that he could say about the Colombian matter and that If he had' anything further to say, "let him write it." Republican members of the committee. It was learned to-day, are not all in favor of inviting Roosevelt to appear. Senator Smith, of Michigan, however, was outspoken in the matter, asserting that Mr. Roosevelt should be called by all means. The investigation of Nicarauan affairs, pending the submission of a canal right acquirement treaty with that country, has begun to lag in the Foreign Relations Committee and there were Intimations today that nothing further would be done with it at this session.

The Bryan peace treaties, for which President Wilson desires ratification before adjournment, also are giving Senators considerable concern in view of the desire to complete the trust program and get back to their districts for the campaign.

"If I had a mind as putrid as that of the gentleman from Washington I would have it disinfected." said Madden. Bryan rose and advanced toward him.

his fists clenched. Speaker Clark pcund-ed to restore order and admonished Bryan that "this is not a school of pugilism." While Moore was speaking Bryan walked near him and stood in a threatening attitude. Afterward, when Bryan had declared that he did not intend to Impugn the motives of either man. he said that when he went near Mr. Moore he had intended, if Moore called him a liar, that heBryan) "intended to put him over the bench."

Ivins came to Oyster Bay in a motor car after a conference with Barnes at the Republican Club In New York. It was 8 o'clock when he rang the bell at the Roosevelt home. Roosevelt was expecting him, for he had heard late In the afternoon that Ivins would likely make the trip.

Archie Roosevelt went to the door and, when Ivins introduced himself, explained that the Colonel was at dinner and that he would call him. Roosevelt started for the door as Ivins was about to step in. The Colonel was in his tuxedo. He greeted Ivins effusively. Shakes' Colonel's Hand.

Colonel, to disturb you In a matter of this kind." remarked the lawyer as Roosevelt took the paper from him. "That's aU right; that's all right." re sponded the former President amiably. Not one word had been spoken as to the nature of the paper the Colonel had accepted.

Roosevelt Invited Ivins to step into his library and picking up a box of cigars asked Ivins to help himself. Ivins declined. The Colonel held the libel papers in his hand. He asked no question about them. Barnes's name was not mentioned.

Ivins sat in the library for a moment, got up, said "Good-nighti" and left. On bis way back to New York. Ivins stopped at a village Inn for dinner. reporters he told or his conference at the Repbllcan Club with Barnes. He said: Tables Are Turned.

DIVPATCB TO TBI CXQUIBCS. NeW York, July 23. Charles F. Murphy, boss of Tammany Hall, announced tonight that he had no Intention of suing Colonel Theodore Roosevelt for libel. Murphy's announcement was caused by the action of William Barnes.

of Albany, Republican State Chairman, who caused papers to be prepared in a suit charging that Colonel Roosevelt had libeled him In his statement of last night, indorsing the candidacy of Harvey D. HInman for Governor of New York. "It is no new thing for Teddy' to ebuse me and I don't mind It a bit," was Murphy's only comment when asked if he would follow Barnes's example and appeal to the Courts for redress. Those "In the know" at Tammany hint that Murphy Is secretly delighted at the split in the Republican ranks, which Roosevelt is doing his best to widen, and would not sue the Colonel no matter what the latter might call him. Barnes, however, announces that the repeated attacks by Roosevelt have grown so wearisome to him that he intends to find out once for all whether he has any legal means in his power to stop them.

In announcing the suit, Barnes defied Roosevelt to put aside all technicalities and bring the case to trial Immediately. "He has charged me with corruption, and he has got to prove It," said Barnes. "If no technical evasions are resorted to the case should be tried' in the' latter part of September or early In October. "There are two ways in which Colonel Roosevelt can put off this trial for two or three years," said Mr. Ivins.

"He can deny publication or demur and put the case over until after election, at least. "What we want him do is to accept the issue and plead the truth of his charges. If he will come out man fashion and stand by his accusations and say he is ready to prove them we can go into Court in a very short tlme." "I have nothing whatever to say in re-ply to Mr. Roosevelt's diatribe, except that It lacks dignity, self restraint and is without foundation," said Barnes in a. statement early to-day.

"When an issue of this kind 1 raised by. a person of uch prominence one has but one of three courses to submit to the aspersions, to enter into an-unseemly personal controversy, or to appeal to the Courts, in order to enable that person who utters the libel an opportunity to produce legal evidence. "I deny the truthfulness of every statement made by. Mr. Roosevelt in his publication this morning." Barnes declined to specify what por-tione of Roosevelt's statement were distasteful, but-said: "The statement, in its entirety is untrue." William Barnes and Theodore.

Roosevelt have long been politically offensive to each other. As ReDublicans thev clashed over the leadership- in New York State, soon after Colonel Roosevelt's return from Africa. In 1010.

The complaint, which was -served upon Colonel Roosevelt to-night, asks damages of $30,000 on the ground that the statement, issued by the former President last night contained references to Mr. Barnes that were "libelous, false and untrue." No specific statements of the Colonel are instanced in the complaint, the en tire being reproduced with the allegation that the defendant published it "maliciously and with Intent thereby to injure the plaintiffand without cause, ana ior tne purpose ot aeiaming ana in juring the legitimate political influence and activity ofthe plaintiff In the per- V.

In the first ne convinced himself that keeping the tolls off was not a subsidy, and in the second he was convinced that, putting them on was the only method of killing a subsidy. To Hoke Smith, Hoke Smith's first speech was Infallible in reason, but in Hoke Smith's second speech, Hoke Smith convinced Hoke Smith thst Hoke Smith's reasoning was wrong jn Hoke Smith's first speech." The Administration Is also being at tacked for Its alleged turning over of the Federal patronage in Georgia to Senator Smith, end the latter is gecused of turning every man from office who supported Oscar Underwoood in the presidential primary. This patronage question promises to cut a large figure in the light, as it is conceded that up to date nearly all Federal plums have fallen to strong Smith supporters. There is probably more Individual soreness over the Administration's patronage policy than any other thing that has its springs In Washington. To this good day a Republican is serving as 'United States Attorney for the Southern District of Georgia.

The late Senator-Bacon was supposed to control the appointments In this territory, and on Bacon's deatn tne control was Supposed to pass to his successor. Senator West. But so far no Democrat has been able to land the position owing, it is alleged, to Smith's insistence that no man who had been hostile to him should be named. Goes Back To Bacon Battle. The former Governor is also trying to line up the friends of the late Senator Bacon by charging that Smith aided in defeating Bacon for President pro tem.

of the Senate. Answering the charge that he is "disturbing the peace," former Governor Rmwn uri there can be no peace in Georgia until Senator Smith is retired from public life. Former Governor Brown seems to have gathered the makings for trouble for Senator Smith and the Administration but so far not much disturbance has been created. The reports that reach Atlanta indicate that Senator iimlth will be returned, and that he will receive the votes of hundreds of men who have heretofore supported Brown. The weekly editors of the state were lri convention at Commerce, last-week, and the consensus of opinion there was that Senator Smith would have no trouble In defeating former Governor Brown.

The- editors say that there seems to be general satisfaction with Senator Smith's course, and that the people are resolved to keep him In Washington. It is stated that nearly 100 papers which supported Brown in his former races are now avowed advocates of Smith. Brown btrong in Country. It should be remembered, however, 'that these reports come from the cities and towns where Smith has always been strong and Brown weak. Brown's strength has always' been greatest in the country districts, and his managers predict that Ainder the county unit system, which nullifies the popular vote, the former Governor has better than an even chance to defeat Senator Smith.

So far Senator Smith shows no signs of being alarmed. He is remaining on the job in Washington and leaving his campaign in the hands of his friends, who are organising Smith clubs In every It Is predicted that Senator Smith will not even return to Georgia. The factional division that has marked the Georgia Democracy since Hoke Smith returned to active politics In 1906 marks the contest for the unexpired term- of the late Senator A. O. Bacon.

Of the five con testants in the race Representative Thos. W. Hard wick and former Attorney-Gen eral T. S. Felder have always trained with the so-called progressive Democrats, while Governor John M.

Slaton, G. R. Hutch-ens and John R. Cooper belong to the conservative or reactionary wing of the Hard wick and Felder supported the President In the presidential primary, while Slaton. Hutchens -and 'Cooper were for .1 Given Praise Por Victory.

Hutchens was the Underwood campaign manager, and to him the victory' of the House leader in the primary is largely attributed. Hutchens is supposed to have entered the present because Governor Slaton refused to appoint former Governor Brown ad interim Senator when Bacon died. Hutchens Is an tied ministration, and Is strongly supported by Tom Governor Slaton is saying nothing against the Administration, but his record shows that he has always opposed many of the policies which1 are being urged at Washington. The Governor is being bitterly attacked by friends of Brown for failure to appoint the former Governor to succeed the 'ate Senator Bacon. James R.

Smith, who managed Brown's three campaigns for Governor- two of them successful Is one of Slaton' bitterest opponents. Over his own signature James R. Smith charges that Governor Slaton "double crossed" Brown about Bacon's short term, so 'that the Governor might have a chance for the seat. Smith alleges that Governor Slaton named Senator W. S.

West ad interim as a temporary substitute for himself. wick Felder, who are running as out and out supporters of the National Administration, are bitter in their attacks on Governor Slaton. Hard-wick alleges tat t1-? m-- t' foe of the President and that his election to the Senate, for Bacon's unexpired term would hamper the Administration. Slaton Has Edge. The short term contest seems to be between Hardwick and Slaton and there Is a feeling that Slaton has the edge.

Hardwick's opposition to an extension of the parcels post is expected to injure him with the farmers. Both Hardwick and Slaton are opposed by Tom Watson. With five candidates in this race, however, it is not Improbable that there will be- a deadlock in tbe convention. The race.foi Governor at present seems to be between J. Randolph Anderson and Judge Harris, with the latter In the lead.

The third candidate is Dr. L. T. Hardman. The friends of Judge Harris claim that there will be no deadlock In the convention and that Judge Harris will be nominated on the first ballot.

Anderson is hampered by the fact that he is from Savannah, -which has always flouted the prohibition law. and Georgia is a state except in spots. Director of the Census W. J. Harris, who was in.

the gubernatorial race until this week, has withdrawn. So far the National Administration ha a taken no part in the Georgia contest, unless allowing Director Harris to enter the race for Governor be construed as interference. Nor is it prohable that the Administration- will take part. The Administration did interfere in the recent Florida Democratic primary, and hundreds of Democrats down there are still sore about it. The friends of John N.

C. Stockton claim he would have defeated Senator D. S. Fletcher if the President had not' written a letter commending Senator Fletcher's record in Congress. The friends of Stockton are especially sore because Stockton Is the original progressive Democrat In Florida.

Kowdy Campaign On. The" rowdiest campaign in the South Is In progress In South Carolina, where Governor Cole Blease Is opposing the return of United States Senator K. D. Smith. The campaign is rowdy because of 1 the well-known methods of Governor Blease.

The candidates are stumping the state, and feeling is running so high that riots have been narrowly averted. Last. Saturday at Greenville Governor Blease called Banker Norwood a coward for asking certain questions. The banker called the Governor a liar and sprang at him, but did not strike. Several persona were badly pummeled In the resultant melee.

Governor Blease has been in a constant quarrel with the War -Department In regard the South Carolina National Guard.) and he. Is openly fighting the Administration on the stump. Blease is being hard put to it to defend his notorious pardon record, he having freed more than 1.O0O convicts during his terms Governor. All the business Interests and the so-called moral element of South Carolina are opposing Blease, and likewise nearly all the newspapers. The Governor u-ems to be fighting a losing race, thougn he has won in Ihe past against Just as strong opposition, and may do so again.

Governor Blease knows that his fight is a hard one, and this seems to make him more vituperative against the Admlnls-thation and the cotton mill owners, the latter of whom, he claims, are rulping South Carolina. The bitterness of the fight is occasionally relieved by bits of grotesque humor injected by Governor Blease. At a recent meeting the Governor said: "They may beat me for the Senate, but I have the prettiest red-headed wife In the world, and. thank God, they can take her from me."
