ROOSEVELT NOT TO BE GIVEN HEARING

Colonel is Offering Evidence of an Old HnpiHMiinir, Says Senator Stne. WASHINGTON. July 2S. Not in so many words but in substance no less scalping United .States Senator Stoe, chairman of the senate foreign relations committee, informed former Pres. Roosevelt Wednesday that his committee did not care to have him appear before it to give his version of the Panama canal revolution in Colombia. 'Col. Itoosevelt's plea to he heard by the committee in opposition to the Wilson-Bryan treaty offering to pay $25,000,00'.) for the canal route would interest the committee more if Rooseelt were not offering evidence of something that happened 10 or 12 years ago." said Sen. Stone. "We are dealing with the present. "If Col. Roosevelt has an argument for the senate committee he can easilyput it into writing and submit it to the committee. I know of no reason why his appeal to appear in person should be granted." ROCK ISLAND THE NEXT Investigation or llallroad to Begin Next Week. NEW YORK, July 23.

M HY HERS

Has Restrained the Monopolistic Activities of the Harvester Trust. WASHINGTON, July 23. The report of the minority members of the banking and currency committee in behalf of Thomas D. Jones of Chicago, nominated to the federal reserve board, gives Mr. Jones credit, which he had not claimed, for restraining1 the monopolistic activities of the Harvester trust since he became a member of the board of directors in 1909. The minority members are Senators Lee of Maryland. Pomerene, Shafroth and Hollis. "That the majority of the committee are bent on extreme measures, that their attitude is a dangerous one toward both the peace and industry of the country, is evident from their criticism of this nominee," says the report made public Wednesday night. "A choice is offered the senate in this case between an appeal to prejudice and hostile feeling and the wise and kindly purpose of the president. "No defense of the Harvester company is necessary or attempted in this report. Every act of Mr. Jones in connection with that company seems to have been entirely proper and to have been part of a general business experience well qualifying him to protect the public Interest as a member of tho federal reserve board. He expressly states that he is not in sympathy with these big consolidations and that he is in thorough accord with Pres. Wilson's policy in destroying monopoly. "Apparently Mr. Jones and others with him have restrained a monopoly from the inside which should com

Here seems to be a blind and passionate confusion of good with evil, which cannot be accepted without disastrous public consequences. .V citizen who has no financial interest in the concern becomes a director from motives of personal friendship and public interest. He anil others with him prevent the concern which w;us organized as a monopoly and has the had name of a monopoly for continuing to act unlawfully and as . monopoly.

Mellon in an interview Wednesday. "So Ion a as political demagogues can continueto make these absurd charges and the press continues to print their claptrap, just so long will a superficial public believe that the former New Haven directors are really guilty even before they are tried. "I want to he let alone," he continued, "but it looks as If I shall be kept pretty busy for sometime answering to Indictment for all sorts of imaginary crimes.
