TUFT WILL NOT
PUNISH WILEY
US REQUESTED
Long-Delayed Opinion Given
Out and There Is No Crit
icism of the Pure
Food Expert.
WHOLE SITUATION IS
CAREFULLY REVIEWED
Shakeiip in the Department
of Agriculture Freely Pre
dicted at the Na
tional Capital.
BEVERLY, Mass.; Sept. Jo. The
resignation of Dr, Harvey W.
Wiley, chief of tho bureau of
chemistry in Hie department of
agriculture and probably the best
known pure foo.l expert in the govern
mom service, will not be asked for by
President Taft, despite recommenda
tions that it be requested, made b the
personnel board of tho department and
indorsed by Attorney General Wiiker
sliam. The "condign punishment" for Dr.
Wiley which Mr. Wickersham held to be
necessary, will not the meted out by
the chief executive. The president 's
opinion, carrving no word of criticism
for T)r. Wiley, but many a word of
praise, wan made public here today.
There is no indication in it. that, the
president feels that, he ''turned down"
Mr. Wickersham by Dot accepting his
recommendation He explains that the
attorney general's findings in the case
were made with less complete data than
was before him when he took it up.
Tn the opinion the president admfls
what has been wll known to many per
sons close to i.ip administration that
th--rc is trouble In Ihe department of
agriculture. Sp.'aklnjr of the congres
sional Inquiry into that department, un
finished fit the lat session, but to he
taken up agaui next winter. Mr Taft
says
Shakeup Probable.
"The broader issues raised hy th In
vestigation which have a much weightier
relation than this one to the general effl
rten.'y of the department, may require
much more radical a.ctlnn than the ques
tion I bOve considered and decided."
That this statement Indicates a serious
shakeup In the department next winter
was freely predi. t'd h-re today There
have never heeu any Intimations that
Secretary Wilson was disposed to r'-llre
and It Is not helleveri here that the presi
dent would request him to do so a
general Cleanup of affairs In the depart
ment, however, could easily he required
by the president and carried through
when lie returns to Washington in No
vember. "The Wiley cose" arose over the m
plovment hv the bureau of chemistry of
Pr. H H Rusby of New York j.har
maoognoslst .f the bureau, in effect. Dr.
Wlle: Or. L. P. Kobler, chief of the
drug- laboratory, and Vr. W. P F.lglow,
assistant chief of the bureau, were
charged with having e.-.nspired to pay Pr.
Rush a salary of $16'Jfl a 3 ear with th
tacit, understanding that he was to do
onlv enough work to secure this amount
at the rale of S'.'O a day. This was held
to violate the ;icts of congress approved
March 1 s s s . which declared that no
classified scientific Investigator should
receive more than $3 a day. In addition
to the recommend.tt Ion that Wiley be al
lowed to resign, the personnel board held
that Pr Rusby should be dismissed that
Pr Kebler be redm-ed and that Pr. Bigi
low be allowed to quit the service.
Board Turned Down.
None of these recommendations Is up
held in ttn' president s opinion. Pr. Keb
ler If reprimanded for "disingenuous con
duct" In his let lor writing to Pr. Rusbj
and tho president says thai, the letters
suggest a. "willingness to resort to eva
sion'' that calls for official reproof. Pr.
Blgelow is held lo have hecn "over-zeal -ous"
and a reprimand by Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson, to whom the opinion,
which Is in letter form, is directed, is
ordered 'by the president
Dr. Rusby is held to be as guiltless as
Pr. Wiley in this particular matter. A
charge against him. however, of secur
ing the appointment, on the "common
laborers" roll of a physician and expert
"whom he COUld use to do his work at a
small stipend when he himself was called
away" th.j president holds to be "not
especially creditable." The . ase. the
president says, has made apparent the
"doubtful legislative policy of placing
limitations upon bureau chiefs to exact
per diem compensation for experts "
"The government." he says, "ought not
to be at a disadvantage In this regard,
and one cntinot withhold ones sympathy
with an earnest effort by Dr. Wllev to
pay proper compensation ami secure ex
pert assistance in the enforcement or so
important s statute the. pure food law.
certainly In the beginning when the ques
tions arising und.-r It are of capital Im
portance to the public.'
The president's conclusions, he says,
were ready weeks ago, hut hv did not put
them r, paper because he hoped for a
time for lh report of the committee of
the house of representatives that was in
vestigating tho department of agricul
ture. Letter to Secretary.
The president's letter to Secretary Wil
son 16 as follows.
"I return herewith the papers Which
you havj submitted to me iu the matter

DENVER, Sept. 15. Boy V . Smith.
vrho gives Ins liomn as Brigbam City,
Utah, came hero recentjy with uogn
tiah)c papT, apparently representing
thousands, in bis possession. Wo posed
ms a verdant youth, ignorant of busi
nnsp methods, and appealed to th.? sym
pathic? of tbo Denver Grain 'Dealers,
whom ho met iti an endeavor to sell
his crop of oats. Now num of these'
grain dealers have n'kp.l thi police to
finci .Smith and recover for tocm $12,
100. Smith first brought himself to the
Denver graiu dealers late in August
by writing them from Brigham City,
1'tah, on a letter-head that indicated
that he, was a hoi'.sr-trader. He in
formed them he bad oats from S20
acres to el). which he thought would
amount to between 4.000 and 5,000
sacks He BCjrawled b bitter complaint
against Utah grain dealers for their
alleged "greed and dishonesty."
As the Denver market was short,
each Denver dealer agreed to buy
Smith's onts, and bortly thereafter
eight of them received word thai
Smith bad shipped two carload- to
each. A few days ago Smith appeared
in Denver and was grieved to leurn
tiiar tne railroad companies naa oe
layed his shipments. He told each
dealer he was short of money and was
m baste to reach Wayne, ill., to in
vest the proceeds from his oats in
horses. Through pit v for the inexperi
enced ''rube'' the dealer agreed to
pay him . 1.500 on the blil of lading
and identify him at the hank. After
visiting eight Denver firms, one of
which paid him 1,600, Smith disap
peared with $12,100 in cash.
i"n information received by th. Suit
T.nke police department yesterday aft
ernoon from Brlgrham City, a thorOUgh
Bearcii Is hcmK made of all local roomtne
houses for Hoy v. Smith, an alleged
fraudulent grain dealer, who fi is re
ported from the east, has swindled varl
ens firms out of an amount of more than
$13.nai.
It is reported from Brigham City that
iln-r'e weeks ago a. young man. who rep
resented himself to be a wholesale Brain
operator came to that oily- He re
mained there about two weeks and left
about a week aco for part. unknown.
Yesterday morning sl tHfgram was re
ceived by Marshal Evans from a Denver
firm, making Inquiry concerning the re
I lability of Smith, it was then learned
that Smith hai been carrying on fraudu
lent grain operations and hod, It Is a!
legad swindled eastern firms out of large
sums of money.
Tt Is alleged 'hot Smith had Id term-ads
printed announcing himself as u
wholesale grain dealer and represented n
eastern bouses that he would ship grain
Lo them on oondlditlon of 80 per cent
payment when the bill of lading was re
. , iv ed
It Is furthermore alleged lhat Smith
forged the name of Agent Bronsor of
Brigham City to bills of lading which
he stoic and that upon mailing these
received the money In payment for ihe
supposed grain it is charged that as
soon as the money from fl number "'
eastern houses arrived be left Brigham
City The alleged fraud was discovered
at Denver with thr non-orrlvol of a pur
