I
Ute to-day by Uonator Penron;. Hl?
statement foiiowa:
"Tho newspaper reports of Koautor
Penroae'u confession of fulth a.nj. other
thlnj.? havo been read by tne, and in
It ho makes two references to my al?
leged efforts to obtain an appointment
to the United State? Sonata as euccesaor
to Senutor Quay.
"First, as 1 understand It, he allege.!
that I sought tho support uf John D.
Archboid tor tho ui>polntinunt, and
<|Uot?!j what puriiortn to bo on ex?
change of te I OK ranis between Archbold
And myself on tho subject
"When tho Senatorial vacancy oc?
curred Hi l'JOt a practically solid Re?
publican delegation In the Assembly
from . Allegheny County and a largo
majority from Western Pennsylvania
favored my Selection to succeed Quay.
Pen rose was in favor of Oliver. Ho
was not allowed to namo his man, for
the appointment of liuox wo? decided
upon at a conference held In tho ofUccs
of the Pennsylvania Railroad In Phila?
delphia by President a. J. t:assatt,
Henry day Prick and ex-Senator Uon
Cameron, tho latter two representing !
i the corporation* In this Stato and the
big Interests in New York.
'.'Under the old system In Ponnsyl
var.la no Senator has boon chosen from I
i this State without the O. K. of tho
standard Oil and tho Pennsylvania
Railroad. If tho telegrams which Pen- !
rose read in tho Senate ar? genuine,
they show that I make a pretty good ,
guess na to who would dictate tho ap- ;
p?lntment to succeed Quay, und also
that Archbold "lnd his associates were
opposed to me. notwithstanding the I
practically solid backing of the section 1
of the State which was conceded to b'>'
entitle! to the stuntorshlp. Tho fact
that a Boiectlon was made, and forced ,
on Pen rose, demonstrates that he ?h
thon an now under tho domination of:
Archbold and tne interest:! which
turned down my appointment.
"Second, Penn.se alleges, that I of- I
j forod fl.Q04.OOQ or f2.000.000 to him j
and to Israel YY*. Durham, tho latt-r '
now being dead, and unable to testify,
to favor my appointment to the
Kenato. Taken In conncotlon with my
purported telegram to Archboid. P*n
rose's allegation disproves Itself from
several angles.
"First. If Penroso could hive sold
tho senatorship for such a sum. his
record art a cnrr-uptlonlst 1? sufficient
evidence that ho would havo taken the
1 money and delivered the goods. Second.
' tho appointment of Knox at the dic?
tation of Archbold. Frlck, Cameron and
; Caas&tt proves that Penrose did not
, have the senn'.orship In his hands to
' dispose of. j
! "Third, the very allegation that I
solicited Archbold's support and re
iiuented the Standard Oil chief to give j
>rd?rs to his man Penroso In my b?
jhalf Indicated that i was wise enough
to know how Ponrose could be con?
trolled without tho necessity of buy- j
lr.g hint.
"Ab a matter of fact. I never asked .
Penrose or Durham to support mo for
..Senator, anil never eve-n discussed the i
' matter with them. Thone men wer?
my personal and political enemies, I
j with whom I had no contact or rela?
tions since 159R.
"Senator Penroso. caught red-hind'd.
evidently made his statement In refer J
enco to me for tho combined purpose
of Inking the writers, like a cuttlefish,
that he might withdraw himself from
! the public car.e and to provoke the
j only riosslbl? retort which can char- j
acterlze a man making such a rtate
jmcnt. 1 do not propose to lend myself
j to his plan.
"But there may bo a way In which !
ho can be withdrawn from his shield
of personal privilege In the Fnlt'd
States Senate. If so. ho will have an
' opportunity to add a perjured soul to I
! the other chief characteristics which
disclose Penrose to tho American peo
; pie?a black heart nnd corrupt hands.'' ,
Fulmlnallon From Colonel.
Wllkesbarrc, pa., August 21.?An at- I
tack on Senator Ponrose was made by
i Colonel Itoosevclt to-night, after he
had road the Senator's statement In
I the Senate to-day. The ex-President j
quoted from letters and telegrams j
'which he gent to George B. Cortedyou, I
chairman of tho Republican National |
Committee In ll'Ot to prove that no j
icontributions had boon accepted from
the Standard Oil Company.
"Mr. Penrose and his allies and the I
lentire crowd of crooked politicians and j
crooked financiers who have attempted. I
to make these attacks upon me." snld j
Colonel Roosevelt, "have made them, I
jnnd urc making: them, not only know- !
Ing that they are false, but because j
they aro false und because they know |
that the forces behind me. and which
II at this time represent, are the only
I forces which the crooked politicians
and crooked financiers of the country i
have really to fear.
8"The only part of Mr. Penrose's '
statement that needs comment by me 1
Is that portion In which It is asserted j
Ithat I had been advised of a heavy
campa'gn contribution from Mr. Arch- I
bold in behalf of the Standard Oil
Company to the Republican national |
campaign committee, and that i dl- I
rectly or Indirectly requested a con- ;
trlbution from Mr. Archbold und his;
associates interested In the Standard
I Oil Company. This statement is false." j
Van Valkenbitrgh Makes Reply.
Philadelphia. August 21,?F.. A. Van
Valkenbitrgh, editor of the Phlladel- j
phia North American, who is with Col- j
on, l Theodore Roosevelt In Wtikes
barre, Pa.j to-night dictated over the I
telephone a statement saying in part: I
Senator Penrose's evident purpose j
In bringing my name into his state?
ment before the Senate ' to forestall
the presentation of evidence In the i
possession of the Norm American that
n. is a briber nnd corruptionlst. such
as had hot been exposed in public life i
In this country In recent years.'"
Comment Prom Cortelyou,
New York, August 21.?George B. |
Cortelyou, chairman of the Itc/iubllcan
National Committee In 1904, had his
attention called to-night to Senator
Penrose's statements regarding al?
leged Standard OH contributions to
the campaign fund In that year,
??I have no comment to make,'1 he
said, "Other than to refer yuu to hiy j
testimony on July ll before the Sen?
ate subcommittee on Privileges nnd
Elections."
In his testimony before that com?
mittee, Mr. Cortelyou said he had
never heard of Mr Archboid or any
on,- In his behalf making a contribu?
tion.
TRACING DOWN CLUES '
Mj-ior> Surrounding Discover} ol
skin nnd Hammer Mny lie Helved.
The police las) night obtained a oluo
which may lead to a solution of the
mystery surrounding the discovery yes?
terday morning of a woman's torn
skirt and a heavy hammer near a few
drops of blood on the north bank of
the mlll-raco near the foot of Seventh
Strei t. Just what the result will be
or what tn> information On which de?
tectives are now working will bring
to light cannot be said.
The clothing and hammer were found
by a in grn, who summoned Patrolmen
BcrtUCCI ' nil Jordan. The garment was
tvet from Ibe heavy rail', during the
night. There .van a stain upon the
hammer, which some were inclined to
believe was blood.
Whether the puzzle when solve.! will
result In (ho disclosure of a tragedy
cannot be said. The police have not
lately had any reports of women being
missing. In view of thlc facti they
have Pule data on which to base their
w urk.
