When It Anally became known that

attention had ben called to a scheme
of swindling In which his name had
been used rathsr unpleasantly and
without ths slightest warralnt. The
senator held In his hand a circular
bsaded, "How to make tS.000 out of
$100. This clr<ular called attention
to certain land grants In Oregon and
to the activity of Senator Tlllman In
having tbs senate Investigate them. It
stated that "Senator Tlllman takes 11

Instituted In order io recover thsee
bspds wers proposed to be pressed
with great vigor, because Senator Till
man was behind them. Commenting
upon this situation Senator Tlllman
at that time said:
"As a matter of fact. I have not
bought any lands anywhere in the
West nor do I Intend to buy any. I
have made some inquiries, aa one
naturally would in roaming through
the West. I simply want the people
of our country to be put on notice
that this awlndltr at Portland has no
warrant whatever for endeavoring to

The vermiform appendix, which
has been looked upon hitherto aa a
useless and even dangers us organ,
has at last Justified its existence, ac?
cording to a statement mass by the
surgeon of a London hospital, where
the appendix has been shown to be a
great help In treating dlssases.
One of the greatest dlttcultles of
medicine, said ths surgeon, "is to ap?
ply medicine to the lower Intestines.
The appendix has now been made use
of as a short cut by which we can
gain readier access to this part of the
digestive tract"
This is a matter of importance,
since In ulcerated conditions of the
intestines it is necessary to continue
medication for weeks or months. This
Jnaklng use of the appendix does not
lessen its danger as a favsrlte focus
for inflammation and abscess forma?
tion, but at least it removes some of
the stigma which has hltherts been
attached to it by the profession.

PRESIDENT MAKES PUBLIC THE
DETAILS OF INVESTIGATION
OF TLLLMAN.
Roosevelt, In His Report to Hale on
Work of Secret Service, Accuses the
SoaUi Carolinian of Using His lu?
gs ence In Upper House to Force
Railroad to Relinquish Its Title to
Laad Grants That He and Ills
Family Might Profit by Perchas* of
Real Estate In West?Also Alleges
Abuse of Franking Prlvllege?Tin
maa Will Make No Statement In
Reply Until Monday.
Washington, Jan. 8.?President
Roosevelt tonight made public the de?
tails of an investigation by postofnee
Inspector and secret service agents
of Senator Tillman's alleged connec?
tion with a "land grab" in Oregon. As
he presents the evidence to Senator
Hale in response to the letter's re?
quest to the heads of the various exe?
cutive departments for a statement of
the operations of the secret service
the president undertakes to show:
"That Mr. Tlllman used his Influ?
ence as a senator in an effort to force
the government to compel a railroad
corporation to relinquish Its control
of land grants from the United States
in order that he and his family and
his secretary, J. B. Knight, might
profit through the purchase of some
of the land.
"That the senator used his govern?
ment franking privilege in numerous
Instances for the conduct of private
business."
Comparatively few senators were
favored with the opportunity of read?
ing the president's report to Senator
Hale, but those who did read the
report took a serious view of It, al?
though most of the senators refused
to believe that Mr. Tlllman had ever
done anything In violation of his oath
as senator.
Senator Tlllman did n?t permit the
fact that the president was giving; out
the charges against him to alter his
determination to make no statement
until Monday. He said that he could
not make his reply so complete as he
would desire for tomorrow's papers
and that he would therefore withhold
whatever remarks he might have to
make until Monday, when he would
make a statement to the senate.
No effort was made by him to con?
ceal ths fact that when he had
learned the facts concerning the rail?
road grant he had made an effort to
obtain portions of ths land In the
names of himself and members of his
family, but declared that as, at most,
ha could havs got possession of only
a few hundred acres, his efforts were,
after all, In behalf of the public and
not especially In his own Interest.
Immediately after the conclusion of
the chaplain's prayer Monday Mr.
Tlllman will ask the recognition of the
chair on a question of personal privi?
lege. Departing from his custom of
extemporaneous speaking, hs will
read his statement, thus Insuring more
careful adherence to what he desires
to say than he would bs able to give
In an offhand speech.
The communication of Senator Hale
Is nearly 3,000 words longs and In
addition there are appended numerous
exhibits, Including copies of letters
written by Senator Tlllman and his
agent, William E. Lee, showing that
they did make an effort to secure sev?
eral quarter sections of the Oregon
land, and the reports of the postofnee
Inspectors who investigated the trans?
actions of the land agents. It was
through this Investigation that the al?
leged interest of Senator Tlllman was
brought to light, and fatefully, It ap?
pears, M was at his Instigation that
the Inquiry was begun.
The president's communication to
Senator Hale opens with the state?
ments that he secured for the senate
Information touching ths employment
of special attorneys, special agents,
Inspectors, etc., and the reports con?
veying this Information he was trans?
mitting. Then he says that It is "not
only the right but ths duty of congress
te investigate the workings of the se?
cret service or detective agents by
which alone the government can ef?
fectually safeguard Itself against
wrongdoing, punish crime, and bring
to justice criminals."
The president continues:
"It nevertheless remains true that
this system is absolutely Indispensable
if the popular interest is to be ade?
quately safeguarded and wrongdoers
taught to fear ths law."
The president says:
"I would like to state here that very
frequently accusations have been
made to me privately by members of
ths two houses to the effect that the
secret service has been used as 'police
of morals' or to shadow senators, con?
gressmen and other public officials.
Hitherto the effort to discover the
basis for such allegations has always
been frustrated. I should bo greatly
obliged If any Information could be
furnished me tending to show any
Instance where this has been done In
times past"
The president enters upon a discus?
sion of the operation- of the special
agents and ItMp^cloru. laying that In
the investigation of epeptfla UuuJ*
the operators "sometimes come across
wholly unexpected phases of mlscon- j
duct."
Often, says the president, the abuse
of the franking privilege is unknown
to the congressmen themselves. Then,
leading up to the Tillman matter, he
says!
"But a case has just arisen of a
different kind, which, it seems to me,
I should put before you as illustrating
In striking fashion the way in which
Investigation begun by any of the va?
rious agencies in the strict line of
their duty may develop facts of high
importance, which the investigators
would not in the first Instance have
sought to discover, which, when dis?
covered, ought not to be hidden or
suppressed, but the development of
which may tend to create an erro?
neous impression that the agents in
question were being used for pur?
poses not within the line of their law?
ful duty."
The communication then recites
that Senator Tillman, on February 19
last, called the attention of the sen?
ate to the circular of the Oregon land
syndicate, which alleged that Senator
Tillman was among those who had
spoken for a part of the land to be
disposed of and quotes Senator Tin?
man's denial as follows:
"I have not bought any land any?
where in the West, nor undertaken to
buy any. I have made some inquiries
as one naturally would, In rosming
through the West. I simply want the
people of the country to be put on no?
tice that this swindler at Portland
has no warrant whatever for endeav?
oring to inveigle others into his
game."
Enclosed, the president says, Mr.
Hale would find photographic similes
of letters and envelopes from Senator
Tillman and his agent, William E.
Lee, bearing on the matter. A letter
of Senator Tillman to Oregon attor?
neys is quoted as fellows:
"I wired you from Wausau, Wis.,
as follows, and write to confirm it:
" 'William E. Lee, my agent will see
i you about land. I want nine quarters
reserved. Will forward signed appli?
cation and money at once. Members
of my family are entrymen. Letter
follows.
(Signed) "4B. R. T.'
"I write now to say I wired Mr.
Lee, who resides at Moscow, Idaho, to
go at once to Marshalfleld and see you
about the land, to locate quarters for
the several members of my family
who are of age and one for my pri?
vate secretary, J. B. Knight, whom I
desire to let into the deal, and of
course he wants a quarter for him?
self."
"The letter continued," writes the
president, "stating in detail what was
to be done In order to enable the sen?
ator to get the land. The William E.
Lee to whom Senator Tillman thud
referred as his agent wrote to Reeder
and Watklns under date of December
T. a letter, photographic copy of which
's herewith submitted, marked Ex?
hibit D. In this letter Mr. Lee ex?
plains that he had written Senator
Tillman fully as to the status of the
land matter, advising him that it was
'a good gamble,' but that the senator
was lecturing, so that he did not get
Mr. Lee's letter until a week and a
half previously. The letter continues:
" 'In case Senator Tillman gets in
on this deal with good land in the
right quarters we want, I am satisfied
he can be of great help in getting
matters started from Washington and
cause the government to get busy and
do something along the line you de?
sire. He will set up such a howl that
it will be impossible to do otherwise.
This wOll be very Important for your
whole scheme to have a man of his
influence here to aid you at this end
of the line. By all means save a lot
of good land for us, as we intend to
be of more value than any one oi the
others in this matter.' "
Then is quoted Senator Tillman's
resolution providing for the institution
of the land suits, after which the
president quotes from the senator's
letter of February 16 to Messrs. Reed?
er and Watklns. Says the president:
"He states that what he had done
in stirrring up the question of the
Oregon land grants to railroads has
been done entirely apart from any
personal interest he has in the matter
and adds 'although I never would
have had any attention called to it but
for the investigation as set on foot in
connection with the proposed pur?
chase by me of some of the timber
land In question. Of course, if I de?
cide to make the tender and go Into
the law suit I will bear your proposi?
tion in mind, but I would have you
understand that nothing I do here in
the senate will be done because of
any personal purchase of any of the
land. If I can succeed In causing the
government to institute suit for the
recovery of the land and make !t
easier for others as well as myself (the
italics are mine) to obtain some of it,
I shall do It without regard to the
dealings with your firm. I shall want
to get some of the timber land, if it is
I possible, and as it is probable that
Mr. Leo or some other representative
of mine will be in your country in the
! next two months we will Issve the
matter of payment for the tnlttary
steps' and subsequent proceedings In
abeyance for the preeont. Any con

CUIBERSON CRITICISES PRESI?
DENTS APPROVAL OF STEEL
MERGER.
Texas Senator Asks That Judiciary
Committee Report on Whether
RooceveU Had Authority to Permit
Absorption.
Washington, Jan. 7.?In the Senate
today Senator Culberson made a
brlfe reply to the message sent to the
senate yesterday by the president.
Baying that he had directed Attorney
General Bonaparte not to reply in the
senate's resolution of inquiry concern?
ing the merger of the Tennessee Coal
and Iron company with the United
States Steel company. In his state?
ment Mr. Culberson characterized this
as "another arbitrary and lawless act,"
which, he said, had been traced to the
chief magistrate of the country, "who
is not only solemnly obligated to ot>ey
the law himself but to see that others
do so."
Mr. Culberson introduced a resolu?
tion Instructing the committee on the
Judiciary to report to the senate at as
early day as practicable whether in
the opinion of that committee the
president was authorized to permit
the absorption of the Tennessee Coal
and Iron company by the United
States Steel corporation, and then pro?
ceeded with his remarks.
Mr. Culberson said the president's
position in denying that congress has
authority to direct a head of a de?
partment by a resolution of inquiry
"is characteristic of the distinguished
occupant of the White House and it
is a corollary of them aind ogma that
that he is absolved from any regal re?
straint whatever."
Mr. Culberson cited legal authori?
ties to prove that congress is em?
powered to place restrictions upon
heads of ezcutive departments and to
direct their acts in certain ways. He
read a statement published in a news?
paper dated October 13. 1908, in
which the attorney general was quot?
ed, after the absorption of the Tennes?
see Coal and Iron company by the Un?
ited States Steel corporation, as say?
ing that he would proceed In the
courts against the steel corporation if
the steel corporation should violate
ths law in respect to the restraint of
trade.
"Yet," said Mr. Culberson, "the at?
torney general then had received from
the president himself a letter dated
November 4, 1907, in which he told
him it was contemplated to merge
the Tennessee Coal and Iron com?
pany Into the United States Steel cor?
poration and that so far as he was
concerned he did not see fit to inter?
fere."
Action on the resolution was not
taken.
tract ws might make will be entirely
apart from, and independent of, my
work here in the senate. I will be
glad for you to hold in reserve eight
of the best quarter sections of which
you have definite Information and I
will in the meantime press the in?
vestigation and other work here
which will facilitate the final pur?
chase, and in effect obviate the neces?
sity of your making any case in the
courts at all.'
"This letter, purely pertaining to
Mr. Tillman'a personal and private
business, was sent In a franked en?
velope of which I attach photographic
copy marked 'Exhibit D6.'
"I call your attention to the letter
of Mr. Dorr to the postmaster general,
under date of November 22, 1908, 'Ex?
hibit E,' In which he asks fos relief
from the case which Senator Tlllman
had brought against him, saying that
he had no knowledge that Senator
Tlllman desired his operations to be
kept hidden and secret from general
public knowledge. The report of the
inspectors seems to Indicate that this
young man, Mr. Dorr, acted In good
faith, but that he used Senator Tin?
man's application for land as an ad?
vertisement."

Lexington, Jan. 6.?One of the
most brutal crimes that has ever
shocked the people of Lexington
County occured about four miles
north of Lexington about dark to?
night, when a negro attempted to
criminally assult Mrs. Thomas Win
gard, the wife of a most highly re?
specter farmer. It is reported here
tonight that the negro has beep cap?
tured and lynched. It is also stated
that Sheriff P. H. Corley received a
bullet in the leg from the assailant's
j weapon. Those returning from the
scene refuse to say anything about
the capture, and it Is safe to say that
the negro has been killed.
I Mrs. Wingard, who is about fifty
three years of age, was in the water
closet, and just as she stepped out?
side of the door the negro grabbed
her and threw her to the ground.
She scroamed and the negro ran off.
The news of the outrage spread like
wildfire, and It was not long before
the whole county was arc&ed.
Sheriff Corley was notified at once
and he left Immediately with the
bloodhounds.
It Is said that the negro who com?
mitted the crime was a stranger.
MORE STOLEN BONDS.
Several Other Missing Securities Turn
Up While Appeal is Before the
Court.
Columbia, Jan. 8.?In the supreme
court yesterday morning the case of
the State against Thos. J. Gibson was
argued. Gibson, it will be recalled,
was a stock broker and was convicted
in the circuit court In the Zimmerman
bond case, and in his absence a seal?
ed verdict was brought in and render?
ed. In this connection, it was rumored
in the State capitol yesterday that in
addition to the theft of the $12,000
bonds upon which these cases were
tried, there was discovered within the
past few days an additional loss of
12,600. These bonds, which were
cancelled along with a number of
others, were sold and turned up sev?
eral days ago, and a check-up showed
that they had been sold with ths
others. This, however, will hardly af?
fect the case against the* defendants.
The Pare Food Law.
?Seoretary Wilson says, "One of the
objects of the law is to Inform the
consumer of the presence of certain
harmful drugs In medicines." The
law requires that the amount of
chloroform, opium, morphine and
other habit forming drugs be stated
on the label of each bottle. The man?
ufacturers of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy have always claimed that
their remedy did not contain any of
these drugs, and the truth of this
claim is now fully proven, as no
mention of them is made on the label.
