LEAL FAILS, DRAFT RETURNED Ohio (or Says He Acted aa A Tlaory Coiaarl for the Company .Makes a Detailed Statement. v CINCINNATI. O.. Sept. 19-As part of the purchase money In an uninlccrful deal tor lha ownership of til Ohio State Journal at Columbu, the draft for t.V.OOO mentioned In tne John t. Art'hbold letter made juibilc lull night In Ht. Ixiula by William it. Hearnt, to buy that riper wa returned and the Incident forgotten, according to a statement glvwTi to the Associated Pros by the senator here today. Senator Poraker dt-clarea In his state ment that no one at any time overpaid him a tent or even suggested any surli pay ment In consideration of anything he might do aa a public man. The statement la aa follows: "The production by Mr. Hearst ot the letter of Mr. Archbold to me dated January iS. 1902, referring to a certificate of deposit enclosed for SM.0O9 and expressing the hope that th transaction may be safely con cluded,. Illustrates how unreliable Is the memory, or how easily' appearances may deceive. v "When I first had this office I could not recall that I had ever received any such letter or any such certificate. I at onco called op' my house In Washington, where my. letters of that, date are on file and had a search made, with the result that a pro posed transaction was recalled that had gone entirely out of my mind. rian to Bay ffempsppr, "A friend of mine a newspapi-r mnn Informed me that he held an option on the Ohio Stste Journal, to purchase It, accord ing to my pnsfnt recollection for $135,000. He was Ohio hlmpclf to advanre but a small amount Of this purchase price. Ho applied to me to help him. I, did not hive enough money to be of very material as sistance, but for the sake of having the paper In friendly hands, I was willing to advance a part of It. 1 applied to a num ber of friends to see If they would not make up the balance of the amount. Among others, I applied to the Standard Oil com pany. They first agreed to loan to the newspaper company when purchased and reorganized 135,000, according to my present recollection; the same to be secured by strck of the newspaper company. "Somebody who was expected to go Into the enterprise dropped out and that made It necessary for all the others to Increase the amount they were proposing to ad vance. At the request of my friend I asked the different parties to Increase their advances, and thereupon the Standard Oil company did accordingly Increase Its amount from $35,(.(X to S0O.OO0, art sent me the letter with certificate enclosed as stated. "It was thought at that time that the transaction would be Immediately closed, but there was a delay of a few days, and at the end of that delay the whole transac tion fell to the ground because other peo ple had stepped In and purchased the prop erty. "Thereupon I returned the draft to the Standard Oil company. I had no employ ment In the matter and never derived a cent of profit from It and never made any charge on account of it to anybody. I am at the disadvantage Of not being able to produce this correspondence, because It Is on my files In Washington and 1 cannot get at It for the present, but I am confi dent that when I am able to produce It it will be found to be In exact acoord with my statement. Acted us Advisory Counsel. "I do not remember of having received the letter relating to the bill Introduced by Senator Jones of Arkansas, but whether I received such a letter or not It had no reference to sny employment of sny kind from the Standard Oil company or anybody else; nor did the letters about Smith Den nett and Judge Burkett read by Mr. Hearst at Columbus have any reference to any employment. I favored the nomination of Mr. Bennett notwithstanding Mr. Aroh bold's objection to him and would have fa vored Judge Burkett's nomination If I had not heard from Mr. Archbold. Judge Burkett was a personal as well as political friend of many years standing and I fa vored him the first time he was nomi nated, which was long before I knew Mr. Archbold. "I can only repeat that the only em ployment I ever had by the Standard Oil company was as set forth In my statement published yesterday, as advisory counsel with respect to Its affairs in Ohio." "It will be remembered that the Standard Oil company has first sue-! and a decrco of dissolution was entered In the supreme court which made It necessary for the company to reorganize. Difficulties arose In carrying out that decree, which delayed their reorganization and proceedings were instituted against them by Attorney Gen eral Monnett in the supreme court to en force the former decrees for other relief. It waa then that I was employed, not to participate In the litigation, which was in the hands ot competent counsel, but to in vestigate the whole situation, the records In the case, the statutes In Ohio applicable to the company and the case against it, the decree of the court and all the records In the case with a view to advising the company how, In my opinion. It could must wifely proceed to comply with the order of the court and to conform to our statute and so reorganize as not to violate any law or judgments. This work Involved frequent consultation with the attorneys of the com pany, the examination of the voluminous records, the Judgments and decrees of the court and a general study of what waa best tu ts done, nut to evade law and the durrrej of the courts, but lu comply with the tame. So t'onfllet with Duties. "Nothing connected whli this work had relation lu anything whatever pending in congress or to any matter In which the national government was Interested In the slightest degree, nor d.d anything con nected with the employment relate to or conflict with any duty of mine as senator. "The company finally concluded, as a re sult ot all the Investigations and consulta tions nr.d advlco, to reorganise by incorpor ating under the laws of the state of Js'tw Jersey, and then my services ended. I have never had any relations whatever to the company since. . "Any letters Mr. Archbold may have written me on any subject since that time have been written as any cltiseu might write tu any legislator with whom he was acquainted concerning pending legislation that affected him or his Interests, and from the time my service ended, I have never been under any obligations to the company nor tlio combn- uuJer siiy obligations to me. "Neither the Standard Oil company nor any other company or individual has ever paid me a cent on aceount of any publlo service, nor has that company or anybody else even suggested to me any compensa tion or reward of any kind In consideration of support for any bill or opposition to any bill or for any action of any nature what ever" A short time after giving out the above statement Peoator Foraker waa In long dis tance lelrrh'jue communication with Wash- VJonday, Sept. 21, '08 Beautiful Floral Decorations.

Benator Foraker was scheduled to pp ak upon that occasion on the same platform with Mr. Taft. It was learned late this afternoon that no definite decision had been reached as to extending any such request to Senator Foraker. Johtv Hays Ilummcnd, who has charge of the republican club matters for the national committee, is" on his way to Cincinnati, and It Is thought likely he will have a talk with Senator Foraker on the subject.

It was nearly twice the size of the ordinary field or house rat, however, and It was Jet black, with white spots along the back. The head was also somewhat unusual In shape.

Into the matter, as the returns certified to the secretary of state are different from the figures ho received from that county. Farmers Are .Satisfied. A. A. Hyeis. congressional committee man, and Wl.lard Clapp, secretary to Con gressman Pollard, returned this afternoon from a tour of the southern part of Lan caster county, feHing In good spirits over the outlook for republican success.

We are behind every civilised na tion on earth except England on the ques tion of government ownership of railroads Every country of continental Europe now owns more or less uf Its railroads. Japan has absorbed all Its railroads. New Zea land furnishes an example of government ownership of railroads and tiermany also. All the great countries of Europe ull own more or less of their railroads. "The question has been asked, 'Where will we get the money to buy the rail roads?' If you wll lestabllah postal sav ings banks what will you do with the money? England ha a national debt which Is supposed to be the chief bul wark of the nation, because the govern ment owes the people so much that they have to support it. And I say to you it you have postal savings banks your savlngswlll be Invested In the govern ment tied railroads and then you will earn Interest on that money and the people would have their money Invested In their own railroads, with the govern ment standing between them as their agent. "But it Is not neceuary to buy these railroads. Tim government can commence and build a railroad Just the samo as we are building the Panama canal, und you t an make the railroads meet the rates uf the government-owned railroad or go out of butnen, and when you make It so they can't afford to do anything rise; then you will control the situation, over there In Germany the great source of rev enue Is the profit derived from the guv-eminent-owned railroads, and they Uim't own a llttlu more than half of tli-iii."
