I mlirht In thl way hava corrected lime wrong

Mr. Fok teadi recused to participate In such
a Joint dlecusslon. no that mt the preaent time
1 hae abandoned the attempt to carry any
raore counties in Missouri My experience In
Ml;i;!ppl and Jefferson counties satisfied ms
that the people of the State, directed b Its
metropolian newspapers, both Xemccratic and
Repjbllcan. would not at this tlm. listen to
both side, cf the question.
My opposition to Mr. Folk was: First, be
cause 2 did not belieTe him to b a loyal
Tcmocrat; second, because 1 knew that he had
been coquettlnc wltn Republican politicians
and Republican newspapers; third, because h
had been deliberately slandering his own cltj.
Bute, political associates and former friends.
Id order to promote his. prlrata political am
bitions. WILL. SUPPORT TOLK.
Nevertheless, If Mr. Folk Is nominated, I
ball support him as the nominee of the con--entlonr
first, because 1 believe in the princi
ple of majority rule In party politics, as I da
la governmental attain, and. seocad. because,
at Hlllsbore. Ma. Mr., Folk promised to sup
port me la case I was nomlaated. Bis promise
came rtuber lata, but, nevertheless, it was
snade.
It Is ray IntenUoa to have my name pre
sented to the State Contention, and I expect
to nceiva the votea from the delegate from
my own city. I would be untrue to my con
victions If I should withdraw from the race
at the present time, and even by Inference lend
assistance to the candidacy of Mr. Folk before
nomination.
As soon as the Imaginary man la destroyed
many Democrats will regret their haste, so that
I would rather In the future be known as a
good prophet than accept a seat In a band
wagon for h!ch so many persons ars igno
znlnlously struggling.
City Democrats opposed Mr. Folk because
ta.y knew him, and they supported me for the
same reason. Despite repeated statetrenta to
the contrary, I have never made an unkind
criticism of the rural Dtmocrats who sup
ported my opponent: on the contrary, I have
often said In my speeches that probably If I
lived out In the State and my source of In
formation was limited to the metropolitan
newspapers, I, too. wouM be for Sir. Folk.
But In the cltj-cf St..lu' where the people
Knew the facts, outside cf some business men

HOME HULK IN CITIES
Th Republicans; who bavo so consistentlv
supported Mr. Folk both la their newspapers
and by contributions cf money, are to be com
miserated with They believe that Mr. Folk
will give them borne rule, which neither he
sor his friends have the s'lghtest Id-a of ad
vocating In the next Democratic convention.
They deserve to be disappointed, because Re
publleana have no plaoe, or right, either mor
ally or in common decency., to Interject them
s.lvea Into a purely Democratlo family af
fair, i
I would' refef some of these Republicans who
are talking about a nonpartisan I'ollco Koatd
to the statements made by Mr. Tbebdore Roo-e.
velt Upon thfsnrJact'when a Tollce Ocmmls
aioner of the City of 'New York He con
demned without hesitation a nonpartisan board,
because It divided the respon-lblllly of man
agement, and did not In any wav tend to In-crease-
Its efficiency. .
Men having the slightest knowledge of tie
policing of large cities do not waste time In
discussing nonpartisan boards Intelligent dis
cussion consider but two kinds, the metro
politan or Stato rule and the municipal or
home rule. Those Republicans who have fa
vored the home-rule plan and hate been ad
vocating Mr. Tolk because he declared In favor
cf It, will secure the treatment they deserve,
and that la the amusement cf the men who
have so successfully gulled thtm. and who,
having received their support, will -give noth

-NEW STAGE BILLS, DMHHHWiMfl
Mr Mansfield Is to so to San Fraud "o
hli first l-tt to that cit In ldne ear-.
In this period the most eminent Amrlctn
actor lit" achieve)! the place that Is now
Ills. and. with j-trength and jouth and
other resources, he will llkelv retain tho
place he has made for hlm-e'f until lie be
corms another Joseph Jefferson in the af
feeilons of his public.
Hardly In an dther wa for It will
neer be said of Mr. Manslleld that he
will rest content In annual reappearvnees
in threadbare plaja. This week he la re
iHirie "Beau Brurnmel" and "Doctor
Jekl and Mr. Hide," but only lor a.
night each and at the request of no Ues
a Judge of the popular need than the Hon
orable Patrick Short, who adtlsed the
brief revival.
Mr. Mansfield has often said that he
would rather retire th in become tiresome,
and his idea of not becoming a bore the
atrically is to show forth a new play or
two each year. This season he has done
well In extremes b doniK "Jan and
"Heidelberg." the llmt a bit of artistic
commercialism, one of the best character
studies cf his career, and a thing whose
timeliness in the matter of its applica
tion to a current ctent oi great im
portance has added to Its strength before
the people.
The second piece Is of the bet possible
sort for Mansfield and for his public. It
Is almost tender In Its soft excellence and
In atmosphere It uppealj as much as any
thing ever done by this unu-mal actor of
many parts.

I'.i's to the tvvo resolutions of inquiry In
troduced bj Mr Williams of Mississippi
nlatlve to trusts.
First repljiig to the question as to
whether any criminal prosecut'ons had
tcn begun by him against persons In
volved In the decision of the Supreme
Court of the Un'td States In the Xorth
in Securities as guiltv of violating the
l.A bv entering Into comrn's-dons in re
straint of trade, the Attorney General
s.ivs:
I have the honor to say that no crlm
I11 il nrorcutlons have been instituted
agiinst the persons referred to. and that
further than tin- I do not e'eem it com
patible to comply with the resolution."

evei v.as made b tbe Derartment of Jus
tice of theso-cali, d Anthiac'te Coal Trust,
ci-psi-tiug uf the anthracite coal carrying
railroads The Attorney General replies
to tills as follows:
"1 have the honor to -ay that during the
tin of the enthrnc!t coil strike Ihe De
paitirent if Jutlre began an mvestiaa-
tion for the purros- of d tcrmlning
whether the anthracite coal baulnes was
conduct, el thiough a commission m con
sp'racv In violation of the antitrust act
of UW
EVIDENCE CONCEALED.
"This Investigation had not proceeded
far until I discovered that If such a com
mission exltcd, the evidence of its ii
Istence had been adicutly concealed, and
lb it if it was to be establis'ieJ, would
large!) depend on the Government's abil
ity to secure evidence of a eaain of cir
cumstances, which. In the aggregate,
would estab'i?h a commie-sion.
"In view of the fact that this depart
ment possessed no powers to comjiel the
production of books and papers, and to
examine v.itness3 under oath, i opened
up the subject throuch a representative
of the Dt part-rent of Justice, with the
representative of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, as to the advisability of the
Interstate Commerce Comml.sion making
an investigation Into the general que
tion as to whether the anthracite coal
roads were engaged in pooling, charging
exorbitant rates for the transportation of
coal preventing the coal from reaching
Its natural markets, and. in short, of
obtaining throtish the rowers of the com
mission evidence of facts, which led to
the developments of the facts upon which
the general government basexl Its case
against the Joint Traffic Association, and
later against the Northern Securities Com
pany. COURT DISMISSED PETITION.
"About this time a complaint was made
before the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion raising the questions above referred
to. During the progress of the hearing
before the committee upon this com
plaint several witnesses refused to pro
duce papers and nnsiver questions which
the commission cor.riJered and ruled to be
germalne to the Inquiry, where-ipon. on
direction of the Attorney General, pro
ceedings were begun In the United States
Circuit Court In New York for the pur
pose of compelling the coal companies to
produce par-ers and answer questions. The
court dismissed the etltlon. whereupon an
appeal was taken bv the United States
under the net of Februar) 19. 1S03, direct
ly to the Supreme Court of the United
Stntec.
' On motion of the Attorney General, the
case was advanced and argued by a repre
sentative of the Department uf Justice
and a special Assistant Attorney at the
Instance of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. "This appeal was dcclde-d in favor of
the rowers of the committee to compel the
production cf the testimony, and, as I am
Informed, the committer is about to renew
the hearings which, when completed, will
lav before the Department of Justice, In
connection with other evidence It has
gathered lte f and has been furnished to
It by rundry persens. all the available In
formation In relation to the alleged com
blnitlon. "Further than this I do not deem It
compatible with the public Interest to
comply witn c resolution.
