southern manager of the agency; C. C.
Tedder, an employe, and Arthur Thur-
man, a lawyer, charged with procuring

heard Lehon talk to Ragsdale over the
telephone.
"Did you ever hear William J. Burns
talk to Ragsdale over the telephone?"
Solicitor Hugh Dorsey asked.
"Yes," replied the witness. "Burns
sent me to Ragsdale'a house to get
names of people o testify to his good
character. Ragsdale'a family turned me
away at the door. When I reported this
to Burns he called Ragsdale on the tele
phone, but Ragsdale refused to talk."
Replying to questions of defense at
torneys, Ragsdalo held to his direct
testimony that he had negotiated with
Thurman, Tedder and Lehon for the sign
ing of the affidavit and had been told:
"There's 210,000 for you It thla thing goes
through."
Solicitor Dorsey Introduced In evidence
an affidavit by Tedder, signed after
RagadaJe had repudiated his affidavit
Tedder stated he knew nothing of the
affair until a few minutes before Rags
dale and Barber signed the affidavits.
when he said he aaw the men la Thur
man's office. Tedder's affidavit con
tinued: "l-ater the same day I ssw Lehon and
said: 'Well, I understand the preacher
made an affidavit,' to which Lehon re
plied: 'Yea, Thurman got htm to come
through ' "

told that Mr. Rockefeller, sr., was will
ing to donate $1,000,000. conditional upon
the unlvcrMty'a raising $S75,000. Dr. Eliot
said he had not hoped to obtain as large
a sum.
Dr. Eliot said he was connected with
the general education board and other
philanthropic foundations established by
Andrew Carnegie and Mr. Rockefeller.
Ho thought the practice or Interlocking
the directorates of such foundations was
a good one.
He thought that the) general education
board had given $200,000,000 to education
since 1H02.
Stockholders In a corporation, Dr. Eliot
testifed, were not responsible for labor
conditions, he thought, unless their at
tention was called forcibly to some par
ticular wrong.
Dr. Eliot said he believed that legisla
tion providing for uniform minimum wage
schedules and working hours wss a bad
thing. "Conditions are different Itf all In
dustries," said he. "What would be good
for one body of workers would be bad
for snother."
One reason why workers found It so
hard to mske their wages go as far aa
they should. Dr. Eliot declared, was be
cause they bought and ate too much
meat. 1
In no case where the General Education
board had made a donation, so far as
the witness knew, had the board In
vestigated the methods of a 'university,
college or school or Its curriculum. There
was only one condition attached to the
board's endowments; that condition was
that no part ot the money should be
spent In teaching theology. The board
made this condition. 'Dr. Elliot said, be
cause it did not care to be placed in the
light of assisting or supporting auy scot
or religion.
Dr. Eliot said he believed In organised
labor, but did not believe in the cloaed
shop. Personally he favored placing
labor representatives In boards of di
rectors. 1
WUer Tkaa f.everwmeat.
To be possessed ot $100,(KO.OOO as a
"grave misfortune," Dr. Eliot said. He
added that If he possessed that sum he
would try to get rid of it. He did not
believe, with Dr. John II. Holmes, that
the government could best turn the
money back to the poo pie. Governments
are not always wise, he asserted, and
foundations ' such as the Rockefeller
foundations could best take care of the
money by giving the 'people education
and bettering their condition. He did not
think that the great foundations
menace. On the contrary, ha believed
that tbev ftrri at benefit la all mn.
kind. The Rockefeller boards and founda
tions, he thought, constituted the most
admirable system of benefitting human
ity the world haa ever known.
In duatria! pesce can ever rome.i he
declared, ao long aa both labjr and
capital employ the "n.ethoda of fight"
they are using now. The panacea was
"Industrial democracy and publicity.'

TWO SMALL INFANTRY FIGHTS
PARIS, Jan. 29. January 28 was a day
of comparative quiet along the battle line
In France, judging from the official an
nouncement given out by the French war

lery engagements, some of them fairly
violent at different places, and one or
two infantry encounters are mentioned.
Apparently long sections of the line,
showed no activity whatever. The state
ment follows:
"The day of January 28 aaw nothing
more than local engagements, which re
sulted favorably for us. In Belgium, in
the vicinity of Nieuport, our Infantry se
cured a footing on Grande Dune, a lo
cality which waa mentioned in the com
munication of January 17. A German
aeroplane was brought down by our artil
lery fire.
"In the sections of Ypres, Lens and
Arras, yesterday there were artillery en
gagements, which at times became fairly
violent. Several Infantry attacks were
undertaken, but at once driven back by
our fire. In the sections ot Solssons,
Cranne and Rhelma there is nothing to
report. Between Rheims and the Ar
gonne yesterday saw artillery engage
ments, but not of great intensity.
"It has been confirmed that the Ger
man attack repulsed by us the night of
January 27-28 at Fontaine Madame cost
the Germans dearly.
"On the heights of the Meuse and , in
the Woevre yesterday waa quiet. In the
Vosges there were artillery engagements,
our cannon at several points silencing the
fire of German batteries and machine gun
detachments.
"We have everywhere consolidated the
positions occupied by ua January 27.".
