Former Embassador to England Accused Before American Bar Association. ALLEGED TO HAVE "SOLD" SUIT OF ONE CLIENT His Expulsion From Society Is Asked; Noted Lawyer De clines to Talk. CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.. Aug. 31. Lawyers attending the American J?ar as sociation meeting here were astonished at the -publication In an afternoon news paper of the report that - sensational charges had been preferred In the asso ciation against JoHcph IL Choatc of New York, former embassador to Great Brit ain. All agree that thc charges have been made at least twice before in meetings of the association, but most of the dele gates were in Ignorance of their nrc sentatlon at today's session. George W. Chamlce of Tennessee on tho floor of tho convention today an nounced that he had a petition to offer. President Llbbey replied that the peti tion would be received. This petition, .which was received without being road in the convention, contained thc charges against Mr. Choatc, prepared by James R. Watts of New York City. Not Before Committee. Tho charges have not been presented to the grievance committee, in fact, the grievance committee has had no meeting here, us there were no grievances to come before them. But two members of Uie committee are present, and they have heard nothing of the alleged charges. Tho members present arc Fred Lehmafln of St. Louis and George B. Pock of Chicago. President Llbbcy was asked tonight for a statement In regard to the matter. He ronllecl; "There is no reason for me discussing this affair, as there Is no such ciuestion before the association." Had the charges been referred to the grievance committee, no action could have been taken within a year. Tho charges are that Mr. Choate has violated tho confidence of his clients, James R. Watts and wife; that he vio lated canons of ethics of thc American Bar association; has been guilty of div ers and many offenses, in violation of good morals, fair dealings and has brought dishonor and disgrace upon the American Bar association of the United States of America. Details of Charges. The first charge has to do with cer tain litigation entrusted to Mr. Choate and his assistants In thc firm of Evarts, Choate and Beaman of New York City and in an associate partnership with Treadwell of Cleveland. In 1SS5 Watts- engaged the flnrrT'of Evarts, Choato & Beaman to bring suit against Walter Weston and Alfred Wes ton, former business associates, for $250,000 damages. This suit was filed. Thc petition alleges that not long after ward Mr. Watts was In the office of Mr. Choate and overheard by accident a conversation between Mr. Choato and an attornoy, In which this attorney, repre senting Weston Brothers, offered to Treadwell Cleveland, Choate's "trial at torney," the sum of $50,000 to compromise the case. Mr. Watts now says In his petition to tho Bar association that he believes his law suit was "sold out" or "thrown away" only nominal damages being granted, the sum In fact being C cents. Other charges relate to an alleged wrongful appropriation of 750 collected by the firm of Evarts, Choatc & Beaman for Mrs. James Watts and thc alleged wrongful retention of notes tor S3000 against solvent parties placed in tho hands of Mr. Choate's law firm for col lection in 1891; and the failure of Mr. Choate's firm to bring suit for $25,000 al leged to have been wrongfully in thc possession of Walter Weston in 1885. Mr. Choate is also taxed with thc al leged failure of his firm to account for about H000 collected by a receiver for the sale of certain business. STOCKBRIDGE. Mass.. Aug. 31. Former Embassador Joseph H. Choate declined today to comment on the charges preferred against hlrn by James R. Watts bofore the American Bar as sociation meeting. PBINCETON'S PRESIDENT TALKS TO ATTORNEYS CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Aug. 31. Woodrow Wilson, president of Princeton university, addressed the American Bar association at its annual convention In this city today. His subpoct waa "The Lawyer and thc Community," and he said in part: "The life of tho nation docs not cen ter now upon questions of governmental structure or of tho distribution of gov ernmental powers. It centers upon eco nomic questions, questions of thc very Htructure and operation of society itself; of which government is thc only inci dent. "Lawyers have been sucked Iiito the maelstrom of tho new business system of tho country. That system is highly technical and highly specialized. Lawyers tboreforo have become experts In some special technical field. Society lids lost its one-time fooling for law as thc basis of Its peace, its progress. Its prosperity. "Meanwhile. look at what legal ques tions are to bp settled, how stupendous they arc, how far-roachlng and how impossible- It will bo to settle them with out the advice of learned nnd experi enced luwyers. "Corporations do not do wrong, indi viduals do wrong, the individuals who direct and use them for selfish and illegitimate- purposes lo tho Injury of so ciety and thc serious curtailment of pri vate rights. You cannot punish corpora tions. Fines fall upon the wrong per sons upon tho stockholders and thc cus tomers rather than upon tho men who direct tho policy of the business. If you dissolve the offending corporation, you throw great undertakings out of gear. "In respect of thc responsibility which thf law imposes, In order to protect so ciety itself, it Ib Imperative that wo should regard corporations as merely groups of Individuals, from which It may. perhaps, bo harder to pick out particular persons for punishment than It is to pick them out of the general body of un associntod men, but from which It is not, nevertheluBK, Impossible to pick them out There never was a tlmo when the lawyers' advice was moro nocded than it is now In (he exigent prncesscs of reform of the busy processes of legis lation through which we are passing." Not Entirely Secret. NEW YORIC, Aug. 31. It was known In New York several weeks ago that charges against Josoph IJ.

Graft Down to System, "Thoao numbors," said Polly, referring lo tho book, "aro the numbers of cam for which Ostcrmann said to mako bills for and run to tho limit." Attorney FIshor askod Polly whether the stamp of "11. Mother, Inspector I. C. R. It.." Indicated that tho latter had In quired Into all thc repairs made upon railroad cars. "Did he alwaya put the stamp on tho bills?" asked Attorney Fisher. "Well, sometimes ho did and sometimes he did not, and then I did," was the re sponse. "What was tho occasion of your O. IC upon the bills?" "Sometimes Rothor was pretty lively and told me to do it," was tho reply, Polly said that ho did not think tho Inspector, whoso name he signed or stamped, ever mudo an Inquiry to doter mlne whether tho material 3d forth In tho bills was supplied.

X TEDDY RECITES ' POLITICAL VIEW i Declares Main Issue of Day Struggle of Men Against Special Interests. WOULD ENLARGE POWERS OF NATIONAL GOVERNMENT "New Nationalism" Phrase Used by Former President to De fine His Stand. OSAWATOMIE, Kan., Aug. 31. In clear and emphatic fashion Theodore Roosevelt announced his political creed hero today. It was a croed of pro gressive Republicanism. It aligned him definitely with tho progressive move ment within the party as a whole. It placed hiraon record as an advocate of Eomo policies which find favor with the insurgents and as an opponent of every "special interest" which he believes exercises a sinister influence on tho af fairs of tho people. Colonel Roosevelt declared himself in favor of a wide increase in the power of the national government so that it might assume greater activity in con trol of tho corporations, and in working out the policies which ho believes should bo adopted. Ho declared for the "new nationalism" as ho termed such an increase in governmental power. Defines Issue of Day. Colonel Roosevelt characterized the issue of the day as "tho struggle of free men to gain and hold tho right of self -government as against the special interests, who twist the methods of.freo government into machinery for defeat ing tho popular will." "Tho issue is joined and wo must fight or fail," said ho. Tho ex-pre?ident declared himself in favor of these principles: Teddy's Platform. First Elimination of special interests from politics. Second Completo and effective pub licity of corporation affairs. Third Passage of laws prohibiting tho use of corporate funds, directly or indirectly, for political purposes.. Fourth Government supervision of tho capitalization not only of public service corporations, but of all cor porations doing an interstate business. Fifth Personal responsibility of t of ficers and directors of corporations which break tho law.

Thirteenth Regulation of the terms and conditions .of labor by meaiiB of comprehensivo workmen's compensa tion acts, Blate and national laws to regulato child labor and the work of women, enforcement of hotter sanita tion conditions for workers, and exten sion of thc uso of tho safety appli ances in industry and commerce, both within and between tho states. Fourteenth Clear division of au thority between tho natioual and tho various state governments. Fifteonth Direct primaries, not asso ciated with corrupt practices and acts. Sixteenth Publicity of campaign contributions, not only nftor election, but before as well. Sovonteonth Prompt removal of un faithful or incompetent public servants. Eighteenth Provisions against the performance of any sorvico for inter state corporations or tho rccoption of any compensation from such corpora tions by. national officers. Whilo Colonel Roosevelt's speech is rogarded by many of thoso who heard it as carrying him further than boforo with tho progressive movement, tho colonel coupled with his declaration a warning against tho extremist, inject ing an oxtomporancous remark on tho subject into his prepared spcoch. Warning Against Extremist. "I do not want our peoplo to follow men whose intentions are excellent, but whoso eyes are a littlo too wild to mako it safo to trust them," ho Baid. An other sentonco which Colonel Roosevelt put into his npoech extemporaneously, brought forth appkiuso from tho crowd. "No man should mako a promise bo foro olection that ho does not intend to keep after election, and if ho does not keep it, hunt out." Tho peoplo gavo his words an inter pretation of thoir own and the burst of cheering which broko out when they hoard thorn was one of tho wildest of tho day. Tho spcoch was delivered in a grovo on the buttlcfiold today whero John Brown fought tho Missouri raiders on August 30, 1850. The sotting wns pic turesque. Thousands of peoplo had gathered for the dedication of tho bat tlefield as a stato park today. Colonel Roosovolt stood on a table which was placed on tho platform, and toworod high above tho dense throne which surged about him on every side. Tho crowd was so great that only a small paTt of the peoplo could hear what was being said, but they all chcorqd.

Comploto re- -turns of the direct primary olection yesterday are not in as yet. So far S9 received, Brady seems to have won tsj firJjfchoice. If he should fail of the requisite first choice votes, Clagstone may be tho. winner in second choice votes for the Republican nominee for governor. French seems to have won for con gress over Hamer, the Republican in- JAMES H. HAWiEY, Democratic Nominee for Governor of Idaho. cumbent, probably on account of tho insurgents fighting among Idaho Re publicans. Sullivan is the Republican nominee for supreme judge, Swcetzer for lieutenant governor. Probably Whitney of Boise wins over Hyatt, al though this is uncertain, and will be a second choice nomination. Morrison scorns to have a lead over MoDougall for attorney-general, although this is jH still iu doubt. Miss Shcppcrd is in the lead for slate superintendent, and will probably win over Miss" Chamberlain m first choice, and if not in first, in sec onnd choice votes. Allon has certainly defoatod Hustings, incumbent for treasurer. Bell appears to have the lead over Moore for mining inspector. Easy for Hawloy. Huwley is tho easy winner over ,H Rico for tho Domocratic candidate for 'H governor. Brown has won over Seawell 'H for congross. Hunter for lioutenant governor, Bradley for secretary of state and Jones for state auditor. F. L. Moore of Moscow is tho Democratic nominee for attorney-general, and Car south, a Mormon of Blackfoot, has a lead over Rice of St. Anthony for treasurer. C. Zizek appears to have won over Laulbrix for mining in spector, and Gertrudo Noble is the nominee for state supcriulondent. "Wet" candidates on the Republi can tickot havo all won in Ada county, but outsido of Ada tho legislature ap pears to be "dry." Wood won over Jlonlch for his own successor as Re publican nominee of this district by 150 votes. Chance for Trouble. An ugly rumor is persistently cir ciliated hero that Clagstone has in his possession proof conclusivo that Gov emor Brady has expended money 111 ex cess of tho $750 limit fixed b tho di recc primary law as tho maximum ho HK could expend as a candidato for gov ornor. This situation throws a cloud over tho candidacy for Governor Brady should ho bo tho now nominee 01 his party for re-election as governor, and the probability of his receiving the aid of tho Clagstono supporters in the primary at the November election. Seventeen straight Brady votes were rejected hero by tho judges .m ono precinct bocauso no second choice can didate was supported. Tho second choico feature of tho district primary is oven better condemnation. Tho de feat of Hamer Jbv Fronch is the sig nificaut feature of the direct primary. Hamer had stood with Cannon as a pronounced "stitud-patter," and as such had- aotually done moro for Idaho i. Mnnii in hie threo M ill 0110 bii.m VT v. subsequent torms. But French an- nounccd that ho was against Cannon and with thc insurgents of his party, and the peoplo trusted him in this J protestation. . Hon. James H.
