o~ti WASHINGTON LETTER. Roogevelt Thro*s Sontherners Down Facts About leather-otton in B#tish 0o0onies., Special to Herald and News. Washington, D. C., March 4. Those southern Senators and Repres entatives in Congress who defended the presiden't for discharging with out honor the negro soldiers partici pating in the Brownsville, Texas, riot are considerably wrought up because of the contemptible manner in which they- have been thrown down by the Chief Executive and his Secretary of War in the matter. douthern Demo crats were sincere in their defense of the president, and they believed him sincere i, his action in discharging the troops. It is now a matter of common gossip in Washington that Senator Foraker, of Ohio, has made it so warm for .the president that he has been compelled to make an effort to right himself with the colored race, and in ordor to do so has had the Judge Advocate-General of the Army secretly prepare an affidavit for the dismissed negro soldiers to sign in order to be reinstated in the Army. The affidavit sets forth that the soldier signing same took no part in any rioting at Brownsville, and that he knows of no soldier who did par ticipate in the affair. Every one of the dismissed negroes signing this af fidavit has been reinstated to his old position in Uncle Sam's Army, and may go forth ad slay other white people objecting to his attempts at social equality. This action. on the part of the president has practically destroyed all confidence southern men had in him. They realize that he is not to be trusted in anything he does or says. They have wanted to be lieve him honest, sincere, and pat riotic, but this latest throw-down has been too much for them. They now consider him a tricky politician who would stoop to any low act that would inure to. his personal benefit. 0 The leather industry contributed 150 million dollars to the foreign com merce of the United States in the year 1905, against less than 55 mil liong a decade earlier. These figures supplied -by the Bureau of Statistics of the Department of Commerce and Labor, combine imports and exports of leather and its manufactures and imp-orts and exports of hides and skins.
