THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 17, 1917.' PERKINS AND COLBY DEMANDJEETI1 Former Moose Leaden Want ' Meeting of Foil Republican Rational Committee. "OLD GUARD" IS ACCUSED New York, Jan. 16,-George W. Perkins and Everett Colby in a signed statement today on behalf of progres sive demanded a meeting of the en tire republican national committee for the purpose, in effect, of rescinding the action taken yesterday by the repub lican executive committee. The state ment expressed a wish by progres sives to bring about harmony with the republicans. The statement by Mr. Perkins and Mr. Colby charges the "old guard" with taking over control of the re publican party. . "The states lost to Mr. Hughes last fall," it said in part, "were lost pri marily because independent voters be lieved that behind the cloak of his name the machine leaders, who were in control of the organization of the republican party, would handle it against the public interest and for non-public ends. The action yester day absolutely justifies these fears."

Student of Naval Academy. , At the age of IS George Dewey was tent to the Norwich Military academy at Norwich, Vt His father wished him to choose a military career, but George preferred the . sea and was happy when he received an appoint ment for Annapolis through Senator Foote, Dewey entered the das of '54 it the naval academy at the age of 17 and toon distinguished himself not only by hit prowess in all athletic sports, but also by the promptness with which he resented insults from other cadets. He graduated the fifth fat hit clast of sixty-five, in 1858. - Dewey was at his home in Mont pelier when Fort Sumter was fired upon, One week later he obtained his commission as a lieutenant' and was ordered on the steam sloop Mississippi of the west gulf squadron. Admiral Farragut raised his flag over this fleet in February, 1862, and it was the privi lege of Lieutenant Dewey to serve and distinguish himself under the eyes of the famous naval hero, Admiral Far ragut conceived a great liking for the dashing and yet coolheaded young of ficer and distinguished him by making him first lieutenant of one of the gun boats which Farragut used as a dis patch boat, A ; . ;T Hit First Marriar' ' ' After the war Lieutenant Command er Dewey terved two 'years on the European squadron and after hit re turn, while on-duty at Portsmouth, he , married Mitt- Susie Goodwin, daughter of Governor Goodwin of New Hampshire, She died in 1872, shortly after the birth of a son. who became a merchant in New York. In 1868 George Dewey was at tached to the Naval academy and in 187a he received his first command, that of the I Narransett. He was made commander in 1875 and was as signed to the lighthouse board. Next he was placed in command of the JUniata of the Asiatic squadron and in 1884 he wat made captain and placed in command of the Dolphin. He wat made commodore on Feb ruary 9, 1896. i Battle Of Manila Bay. At the beginning of the war with Spain Dewey was in command of the American fleet which bad previously been congregated at Hong Kong, China. : As soon as hostilities were known to have broken out, Dewey proceeded with his fleet to Manila, the capital of the Philippine Islands. On Sunday morning. May 1, 1898, be fore dawn of day, Dewey s fleet sailed past the outer forts and regardless of submarine mines, into the outer har bor, and at sunrise engaged the Span ish fleet of warships, commanded by Admiral Montojo. Before noon the Spanish fleet was entirely destroyed, with a loss of 412 officers and men killed or wounded, while on the American tide none were killed and but seven men wounded. When the official report of the battle reached Washington, Commodore Dewey was at once made a rear admiral and con gress voted him a resolution of thanks. He was further honored by receiving the degree of LL.D. by the University of Pennsylvania and by Princeton university, and by the pres entation to him, in the following year, of a beautiful house in Washington, which he in turn presented to his second wife, formerly Mrs. Mildred McLean Hazen. In 1899 he was made a member of the Philippine commis sion and promoted to the rank of ad miral. Later he became chief of the general board of the navy. .

"I was very much worked up about the Henry statement," Lawson con tinued. "We had agreed on one. He had said 'You word it.' I did, and he said it was fair and gave both sides and we shook hands on it. When I read his statement it appeared unfair. It looked as though in the three hours and a quarter he had asked me over and over again to give him names and that 1 had tailed. He wanted Cosgrave and Kidgway to hear his story, he said, because they were men of long experience in handling investigations and he de sired to know whether they thought he should drop the entire affair or if he owed it to the public to go further. Representative Garrett objected to Lawson repeating his conversations with those men on the ground that they did not tend to cast any light on the case. Representative Campbell then changed the form of questioning slightly and Lawson continued to re peat his conversation with Henry, Insists on Telling AIL "I will say in viev. of all that has occurred here," Lawson declared, "that it is right that you should hear all 1 have to say. When there is a direct difference of opinion stronger than veracity raised, it is perfectly obvious that one of the other of us is committing perjury, deliberate, rank perjury. This is no syndicate or na tional bank meeting. This it a meet ing of a high committee of congress. In my opinion ther: is nothing of greater importance than for your committee to arrive at a fair and hon est decision and to do that you must hear what I have to say." Representatives Garrett, Foster and others objected to Lawson's argument and there was a stormy wrangle dur ing which Lawson shouted his insist ence that he should be heard fully, i Chairman Henry ruled that he would be given an opportunity to tell all he wanted, v Henry Favored Delay. Lawson resumed his narrative of his meeting with Henry, reiterating that the chairman told him the leak was too serious for an investigation at this time, but he favored a general inquiry later into the stock market Lawson said he endorsed that and re vealed to Henry that he bad much to do with the money trust inquiry, though Henry, a member' of the com mittee, was unaware of it. "I told him," Lawson said, "that I dug up much of the information. Untermyer went to Europe while I did it. 1 personaly paid the bills of the experts, upwards of $40,000, and asked for no glory except to appear at withett. i v. .;. J,' Lawson Advises Lifting Lid. '"'Here is a chance,' I told Henry, 'to duplicate that. It it the greatest thing that can be done for the Amer ican people.' " "Go to Wall street and set up shop," was the advice Lawson said he gave Henry. There, he said, all of the Stock exchange members could be summoned, with their books and clerks, and be forced to reveal the in side of transactions. Referring again to his conference with Henry, mentioning Secretary Lansing and Bernard Baruch, Lawson declared Henry told him the commit iVeu Method Keeps -All Teeth Spotkit Do jo .matin that boettUM yoit "elaaa" your tth rasularly that ttasy ar spot laaif Joat taka. a hand mirror over to tho wtadow whin Um Usht to food, ox amlM your teeth cloaely, and notice tb Ulna and tartar.

"I said to Henry, 'Go through it from A to Z,'" Lawson testified, " 'and before you are one-third done the lid will be blown off. Congress will know and the world will know who the hypocrites are that are mak ing millions.' Thst was what we talked about in the three hours and a quarter I was with him. "He asked me one thing before we left the meeting: 'I ask you to do this,' he said. 'Throw the newspapers off the scent We cannot gain any thing bv lettina them know that we are coming back here at 3 o'clock.'" Second Talk with Henry. 'So I met Mr. Henry again at 3 o'clock," Lawson continued. "He said to me: 'Lawson, I'm sorry that we can't do what you say. I agree with you that it is a great thing and a good thing, and all I regret is that I am going out ot office on the 4th ot March.' "I said that there was time enough yet to do something. Then Henry said that since we had parted in the morning he had thought it all over and that he had come to the con clusion that the matter was too se rious to have made public now. He then added: 'What do you say if we get at it again in thirty days?' I said, not at all. It would be side tracked by that time and we will never have this opportunity again." "State the way in which the names came to be mentioned first, in your interview with Mr. Henry?" said Rep resentative Campbell, republican. "I entered the rom and the chair man said nice things to me. He wheeled up a chair and said: Take a comfortable one.' I asked him to have one of my cigars and he asked me to have one of his cigarettes. Agree to Keep Back Facts. "Then he said: 'Lawson, we've been through these things and now let us be fair with each other.' I said to him that I thought his com mittee would dispute his right to hold a star chamber session of this mat ter and that I probably would have to talk to the committee. He said: 'No; it's my duty to do this. There are hundreds of things that come before this committee, many of them worthless charges, and it is my duty to sift them and to see whether they should be given to the committee.' " "Very well,' I said, 'but it is un derstood that we are to think out loud.' ' We shook hands on it and Henry said: 'That's it exactly.

Henry Mentions Lansing. "Then Mr. Henry said: To show you where we stand I'll tell you of some things we have got. We have it that a Mr. Baruch, who made large contributions to the democratic cam paign fund, had four conversations with Secretary Lansing.' "That's going some,' I replied, 'four of 'em.' " 'Yes,' he answered, 'four of them,' and then he added I forgot to state this yesterday 'we have the conver sation of one of the interviews and part of the conversation of another. We also have it that Count von Bern storff, the German ambassador, is so mixed up in it that he made over $2, 000,000. We've got it up to $2,000,000 now.' "Then I said to Henry: 'Mr. Chair man, it doesn't seem to me that you need me in order to start an investi gation." "Then Henry asked me: " 'Do you think Baruch could be mixed up in this way, using his friend ships in such a way and involving the integrity of the democratic party?"

"Then Henry asked me how these things could happen and I told him that there had been a big conspiracy in Wall street for months and that this leak alone was not responsible. I told him how Mexican war informa tion had been peddled, how situations were made to order, and I said that a man like Baruch in the market, keeping posted naturally, if he un earthed any information through ru mor or otherwise and was certain that people were making enormous opera tions, would take advantage of the market." . Letter of Mra. Visconti. Representative Foster questioned Lawson closely about the letter he produced yesterday from Mrs. Ruth Thomason Visconti, who offered to give him information about "a White House official in connection with the alleged leak. "My only reason for putting in hat letter," Lawson said, "was because I was asked flat-footedly if I had any other information than had been re ferred to in questions asked me at the previous hearings. Being under oath and having the letter, I produced it ' I had no intention of using it and would not have used it had I not been asked that direct question. I almost regretted that I had the letter with me." Representative Garrett then asked about the amounts Mrs. Visconti told him at his hotel here on January 10, which W. W.

Representative Patten asked Law ton if at his conference with Con gressman Henry the latter volun teered to mention the same of Mr. Von Bernstorff. "Yes, he volunteered it," said Law son. "I didn't ask him for it." ' Representative Patton attacked Lawson for bringing in the name of Price merely on the strength of a letter from Mrs. Visconti, who can not now i be found. Lawson defended himself by saying the woman ap peared honorable and made a state ment before a man he supposed was a reputable attorney. He also said he withheld Price's name as long as he could. "Do you imagii.e," Patten asked, "that this woman was actuated by high motives?" "No," Lawson said. "I think there was some great wrong under this thing." At that point the hearing adjourned for luncheon and later took a further recess until 3:30 p. m. Chairman Henry said business in the house required the presence of the rules committee. W. J.
