TAFT DECLARES COLONEL WRONG Says H3 IN Hoi Approve Action cn fiaircster Trust. NOT IN COUNTRY AT THE TIME President Says He Could Not Have . Given Sanction in Cabinet Meeting. Boot and Wilson B:ck Him by Their . Personal Recollection. Washington, April 29. President Taft, before leaving the White House for his return to Massachusetts, Issued a personal statement, denying Colonel Roosevelt's allegation that he, while secretary of war, had at a cabinet meeting approved Mr. Roosevelt's de cision not immediately to prosecute the International .Harvester company President Taft's statement says he never heard the International Harvest r company discussed at any cabinet meeting and that the records of the war department will show that he was out of the country when the Incident re ferred to by the colonel occurred. President Taft's statement was Is sued as follows: "Mr. Roosevelt, In his speech at Worcester, as reported by the public press, referring to the harvester trust said: " 'As a matter of fact, Mr. Taft was a member of my cabinet when this identical case was fully discussed be fore the cabinet, and he cordially ap proved the action taken; and, Indeed, as a matter of fact, my memory Is that he himself made the motion that there should be no prosecution of the har vester trust pending the Investigation into the trust by the bureau of cor porations.' Colonel's Memory at Fault. "Mr. Roosevelt's memory is very much at fault. I am authorized to say by Mr. Root and Secretary Wilson both of whom were members of the cabinet at that time, that they have no recollection whatever of hearing the prosecution of the harvester trust matter discussed in the cabinet and Mr. Root Is vory certain that he never taw or heard of Herbert Knox Smith's letter to Mr. Roosevelt under date of Sept. 21, 1907, on the subject. "I am able to say the same thing So far ns my recollection goes I nev rr heard the harvester trust matter in any cabinet meeting that I attended and I cannot be mistaken in the state ment that I never saw or knew of Herbert Knox Smith's letter of Sept. 1 to the president till after my admin Istratlon had begun and the time when the question of the prosecution came up In 1909 and 1910, and I never saw or read the letter until two months ago " Not in Washington at Time. "This correspondence shows that subject matter of the prosecution of the International Harvester company tame before President Roosevelt on Aug. 22, 19o7, which Is the date of his letter to Attorney General Bonaparte that Herbert Knox Smith's letter dis cussing the question and advising against suits and dated Sept. 21. 1907 and that Mr. Smith's letter was for warded, by direction of President Roosevelt under date of Sept. 24, to the attorney general to bring the le ter to the refldcnt that week to talk over the matter. "The official records show that President Roosevelt left Washington in June, 1907, for Oyster Bay and re turned to Washington on Sept. 24 that on Sept. 29 he left Washington for a trip down the Mississippi, re turning to Washington on Oct. 23 i;ti)7, and that he remained la Wash iegton from that time on. Quotes Records. "The olllciul records of the war de paitment show that I left Washington In June of the same year and went to Alurray Bay, Canada, that I remained there until August, when I visile Oyster Bay on Aug. 13, and then went to Washington on the 14th and left Washington on Aug.

MOVE TO AVOID PARTIALITY 6tate University Would Make Accept ng Degree Formality. Liutthi, April 9. A move to abol h the requirement of graduates ,alk:ug aciobs Use stage to get their ipiomas was the ooject of a pio onged discussion at a meeting of the state university stnate. As proposed by several of the instructors, here ter the graduates would only be re quired to stand up in their plans and have the whole bundle of sheopsklus presented to them, afterward calling at the chancellor's office to get these certificates of graduation. In past years It has- been the cus tom to have the one receiving his de gree walk clear across the stage on ommencement day before he receives his diploma. This has brought forth considerable criticism because the audience has been known to have been partial in the applause for some as they appear on the stage. Some times they have even gone so far as to applaud only the negroes, cripples and football heroes. The matter was finally left entirely in the hands of the chancellor, who will talk with the seniors and their parents with a view of obtaining their wishes as to whether or not the cus tom shall be abolished. TWO ERRORS HELP DESTROY TITANIC Captain of Mount Temple Crit icises Men in Responsibility. Washington, April 29. Failure to give Its exact position, a great field of floating Ice that offered a frigid bar rier to ships hurrying to the rescue and the mistake of its own captain n rushing at top speed through an ice-covered sea, combined to send the Titanic and its l.fiOO victims to their waterv grave in the north Atlantic, ac cording to testimony before the senate committee investigating the ocean tragedy. Captain James H. Moore of the ateamer Mount Temple, which was hurried to the Titanic In response to wireless call" for help, told of the great stretch of field ice which held him off. Within his view from the bridge he discerned, he said, another strange steamer, probably a "tramp," find a schooner, which was making her way out of the Ice. The lights of (his schooner, he thought probably, were those seen by the anxious sur vivors of the Titanic and which they were frantically trying to reach. , One Thousand Will Sing. Omaha. April 29.

When by the death of my mother 1 wns left an orphan my aunt took me to live with her. I was then a lad of ten. Bertha a year younger. 1 was too much of u boy to appreciate Bertha, having very little use for girls a ud setting great store by football. baseball, tenuis and kindred games. I have a photograph of her when she was tifteen, and when I look at that harming little face with those maiden ly eyes I wonder how 1 could have been Indifferent to her. Bert hit seemed to like to be with me. She was always glad when It stormed so hard that 1 couldn't play outdoor games mid was obliged to stay in the house and play domlnos or checkers with her. games 1 considered very dull. And when I was kept In on account of some Indisposition she would sit by my lounge or my bed or whatever I rested on and read to mo. It did not occur to mo to be grateful for this. 1 simply regarded It as a very natural thing that the Inferior being. girl, should minister to the superior being, boy. I remember that though manly In some things 1 wos tnexpressably weak In others. 1 regret to say that It usual ly took me from half to three-quarters of an hour to get n dose of medicine Into my stomach. Threats, contempt, Irony, were Insufficient to put enough courage Into tuo for tho purpose. On one occasion, after being alternately bribed and threatened to no purpose. I finally mado up my mind to have the thing over with and took the dose down nt a gulp. When a Uttlo later I was asked if I had taken It Bertha, who was sitting besldo me, said, "Yes, and ho took It very well too." That wos the first realization I had that there was anything admirable In a girl. Indeed, I was very much ashamed of myself and Just a trifle grateful to Bertha for standing up for mo who didn't deservo anything but a spanking. As we grew older I como to consider myself a sort of protector to Bertha, looking upon her ns something very weak that needed something very strong to keep her out of troublo or danger, I didn't know exactly what. Tho truth Is that Bertha didn't need my Btrong nrm at all, whllo I needed a certain moral courago thero was In her very much. Then I went away to ' boarding school, and when I returned at six teen It occurred to mo for the first time that Bertha was rather a pretty girl. I felt Just a Uttlo proud of her and wouldn't mind some of my boy friends seeing her. When two years Inter I brought ono of my classmates home with mo there was something nliout tho ndmlratlon he expressed for her that annoyed me exceedingly After that Instead of wishing my frleuds to seo her preferred that (hey keep away. In fact. I was mean enough not to Invite them to my homo. One Christmas while I was at col lege some one gave Bertha an es critoire. When I came homo for tho spring recess she was wearing n tiny gold plated key on n nnrrow velvet ribbon nbout her neck. I asked her what I he key unlocked, nnd sho said It was a drawer In her desk. I asked Ivr what that drawer contained that was so precious, nnd for reply phu gave me only a blush. i ins wos worse nmn introducing n friend and enduring his ndmlratlon of her. Some fellow had lieen snoop In;,' nround, and I wished to know who he was. Of course I didn't want Bert ha for myself. I had seen sev eral girls while nt college who could cut n much finer swuth than she. But what business bad any other man to come Into the house, and well. It wns (lend wrong. When I returned the next June a graduate 1 found that Bertha bad not only budded, but bloomed. She was past' twenty. She still wore the key. I didn't see any fellow Innglnrr round her, but supposed that he wns some where else. I was dishonorable enough to lay plans to get Into the treasure drawer and learn who he wns. One day I saw Bertha's desk standing open, nnd on the blotter she used to write on was tho Uttlo key. I knew I had no business to pry into her af fairs, but either I did not reallzo what a contemptible thing It was to do or I wos too deeply Interested to refrain from obeying the dictates of Jeal ousy. I took up the key and. Insert ing It In the lock, opened the treasure drawer. On the top of whnt was In It wns the rascal's photograph, bul In nn envelope. I could feel it. I yielded to temptation and took It out It wiih my own picture taken when between boy and youth. Investigating further, I found a scrnp of my writing nnd on rending It rec gulzed something complimentary I had written her ten years before. From n u overweening conceit I drop ped Into n bottomless pit of iinwortbl ness. So great was the change that It wns a long while before I could screw up my courage to tell Bertha I loved ber. But when I recovered my equa nimity 1 regained my rascality. I told her that I bad loved ber ever since she was n little girl. After nil. It doesn't do for a man to break a woman's Idol. When I was n boy without enough pluck to take a dose of castor oil she regarded me as a young god. Why undeceive herl She would find It all out after mar riage anyway. - 1 Admission to West Point A candidate for the Military acade my at West Point must first get th Indorsement of the senator or congress man from his district The question of appointment Is generally settled la each district by competitive examina tion," the representative in congress ap pointing the boy who obtains the high est marks.
