BONAPARTE'S LETTER

Senate to Keep Secret His “Apology" For Not Appearing. Washington. Jan. 22. Unctuous courtesy is being maintained between the senate committee on judiciary and Attorney General Bonaparte over the question whether the attorney general will or will not appear before the committee to explain the merger of the Tennessee Coal and Iron company and the United States Steel Corporation. Bonaparte's letter declining the committee’s invitation to appear, so far as the senate is concerned, will be kept private. —•
