*epecifying them, _ ee em MORGAN AIMS TO BEAT ROOSEVELT If Not in Convention, Then at the Polls. —_—_—-__.__ _ _— SPOKESMAN OF THE TRUSTS SUGGESTS THAT CLEVELAND ISA SAFE MAN. ” ———— 9 ’ Whe Financier Is Quoted by a Close Friend as Saying That the Busi- ness Interests of the Coun- try Demand the Retire- ment of Roosevelt. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.—A story widely Printed today by administration organs Says that J. Pierpont Morgan has issued @ flat that Theodore Roosevelt must be Gefeated for the Republican presidential Domination tn 1904. According to this story, which was sent out from Washingion, Morgan made the wing statement to a friend: He must be defeated for nomination and @ safe man ust be nominated in his Stead. If he * el be defeated for nomi- Hation, then we must see that the Demo- Crats nominate a safe man like Cleveland, Whom the business interests can support, and beat Roosevelt at the polls." Morgan is said to have been displeased with President Roosevelt since he ordered Attorney-General Knox to file suit against the Northern Securities Co. Then he char- e@cterized the executive as an ‘unsafe’ man. Since that time Morgan has frequently been reported as making a secret but vig- orous fight on the President. It is certain that no body of men dominated by him has spoken a word in commendation of the President. An editorial in last week's Harper's Weekly, the utterances of which are generally supposed to be shaped to the wishes of Mr. Mocrgan, who owns nearly all its bonds, is significant, and is thought to indicate Morgan's opinion of Mr. Roose- velt. Extracts from it follow: Wot Like a Statesman. “The President repeated his trust speech at Wheeling, W. Va., on his way to attend the convention of the Brotherhood of Lo- comotive Engineers, which was held at Chattanooga, Sept. & The daily newspa- pers, In their headlines, announced that the President had gone,a step forward in his war on combinations, but a reading of e speech did not confirm the headlines. We fruth is that the President has not uttered a single statesmanlike word on the Subject. He has dealt in the vaguest kind of generalities. He speaks of evils without and has even seemed to admit that the ills he denounces with his ustomary vigor are yet to be discovered. @ says that he believes that the national! legislature can do something more than it has done for the prevention of these mys- terious evils, and for the punishment of their responsible authors. But he does not tell us what he conceives to be the direc- tion which legislation should take, Or the end which it should seek to accomplish. This is not what the country has the right to expect and demand from the President, When a state#¢man who occupies the most responsible, as well as the most conspic- ous, position in the country enters upon the discussion of proposed reforms, it is his duty to particularize, to present de- tails. to give hia reasons, and to unfold his argument and plan. The sort of speech which this involves is the old-fashioned !n- ormative and persuasive kind. It implies ard study. long reflection, steady appli- cation to the subject. But it is also the only kind of a speech worth making, and udiences have an intelligent “Pages _ Today. Young Husband Left His Home on frees . THE ONLY ST.

WAS ARRESTED SEVERAL TIMES COUPLE ARRIVED AT UNION STA- TION TODAY FROM HONOLULU. Wife, Who Is but 19, Is Clad in Male Attire and Easily Passes for a Youth — Husband Sought Work, but His Quest Was Vain. Garbed in boy's clothing, Mrs. James M. Smith, a pale, slender woman of 19, has treveled 14,000 miles during the past year. In overalls, heavy shoes, a blue shirt and a felt hat she traveled as a “‘hobo"’ from ‘Chicago to Honolulu and back from lionolulu to St. Louis, and was arrested i9 times for masquerading in masculine uttire. At least, that is the story Post-Dispatch by her husband and her- self after they alighted from a Missouri Pacific boxcar in the St. Louis railroad yards Tuesday morning. To substantiate one portion of his story, Smith has clippings from newspapers in Cheyenne, Wyo... Denver and Kansas City, telling of their arrest in each of those places because Mrs. Smith appeared on the street in masculine attire. While Mrs. Smith appeezrs heartily dis- gusted with the mode of travel which she har been experiencing. her husband seers roud of his achievement in making so t funds.

Kelly stated to the Post- Dispatch Tuesday afternoon that she had been ‘fairly successful’’ in her efforts to secure bond for her missing husband. Adolph Wallner, who lately offered to fur- nish one-half of the bond required frorm Kelly, said’ that the bond had been practic- ally made up through Mrs. Kelly's efforts and his own, and that he had received as- surance that it would be accepted. Wallner says that neither he nor Mrs. es DELEGATE BY ADVERTISING Kelly knows where the missing delegate may be found, but that both are confident he will return and surrender himself as soon as bond ts assured.

UTHOFF TESTIFIES BEFORE CIRCUIT ATTORNEY FOLK Former Councilman Frederick G. Uthoff, who, it is said, was “‘buncoed” out of his $45,000 bribe money for his vote on the Cen- tral. Traction bill by R. M. Snyder of Kan- sas City, has retured from Colorado to testify at Snyder's trial next Monday, and has heen in conference with Circuit At- torney Folk this morning, making a state- ment which is characterized by a com- petent authority as “‘marvelous, amazing.” It is belleve that Uthoff's return is sec- ond in tmportance only to the return of John K. Murrell and that-his revelations may render unnecessary the testimony of fugitive Charles F. Kelly, who is wanted by the state as a witness against certain mil- ltonaire bribe-givers in the lighting bill ar- fair. MEMBER OF CITY COUNCIL. Uthoff was a member of the City Coun- cil from 1895 to 1899: It was for the passage of the lighting bill that the House of Delegates received $47,500, which was distributed to the 19 combine men at Julius Lehmann’s “birth- day party” by Kelly, for whose arrest the Post-Dispatch and the state now offer a re- ward of $1800. “Who gave the money to Kelly?” ts the all-important question which apparently still remains uranswered and for which the state must have an answer withing the next five weeks if indictments are to be returned against the rich bribe-givers be- fore the’ statute of limitations makes their crime non-indictable. While the circuit attorney and his as- sistants are silent upon the main point, there is reason to believe that Uthoff’s statement may throw light upon the light- ing bill affair as upon that of the Central Traction. [If Uthoff has told who gave the bribe money to the City Council combine in the lighting bill matter the men who handed the $417,500 to Kely may be brougnt to book without the co-operation of the miss- ing delegate . i Former Member of the Council Said to Have Made Startling Statements to the Circuit Attorney This Morning---Here as Witness in Snyder Case. manip wtiate this good cash like stage money, and the sequenecé showed that he could. It is said h@ approached Uthoff almost immediately after giving him the bribe and borrowed $45,000 of the $50,000, presum-— ably for other like uses. Snyder went to New York. Uthoff fol- lowed him. Snyder wined and dined Ut- hoff. Champagne was,flowing freely, and snyder induced Uthoff to sign an agreem by which he accepted $8900 and denied that any offer of bribery had been made. Uthoff came back to St. Louls with his $500), and Snyder remained in New Yors with his $45,000. His remaining there made it possible for him to be indicted for bri- bery after the three years’ limit, owing to a statutory provision extending the statute of limitations in case of non-residence in the state. Last winter, when the bribery canes were first brought -under in Uthoff went before the * ry and testified. It was suppased then that he had made startling révelations, particularly with reférente to Snyder's deals. The statement made by him today in the circult attorney's office, recorded in short~- hand for future reference, are said to be incomparably more startling than the others.
