IF ROOSEVELT-PENROSE ARCHBOLD 00 NOT FELL TROTH, I WIL--HEARST “Penrose’s Explanation of s2s,oooCheck Not Quite Accurate, Not Altogether Truthful—l Have Documents to Prove My Assertions,” He Cables. LONDON. Aug. 26. 1 have read in the foreign papers accounts oi the explanation that Senator Penrose has given of his receipt of a v rlificate ot deposit for $25,000 from the Standard Oil Company. I have also read Senator Penrose’s statement of the purpose for which this secret certificate of deposit was intended and the use to which this sum of money and other sums of money from the Standard Oil Company were pul. Senator Penrose’s explanation is not quite accurate. Ilis state ment is not altogether truthful. He is in part saying what is true and in part saying what is false. t l have the documents to prove my assertion. Senator Penrose should take warning of the fate of Senator For aker ami the predicament of that gentleman when he attempted to explain falsely tiie reason for which his certificates of deposit from Mr. Archbold were received. I was'ahle to produce promptly the documents which showed that Senator Foraker was not speaking the truth ami that the certificates were received for other purposes than the ones staled by him. Should Remember Archbold and Judges Senator Penrose should also remember the difficulty into which .Mr. Archbold got himself by making false statements in regard to some of Jhe letters published inculpating certain Pennsylvania .udges. Mr. Archbold said that he had interested himself in the se lection of these judges without their knowledge. I thereupon pro • lured mon' letters of Mr Archbold's, in which the judges were,shown to have requested him to interest himself in their behalf. 1 advise Senator Penrose, therefore, to adhere to the exact facts and Io speak the whole truth, for the whole truth will surely be brought out in the present series of articles now appearing in mv magazines. The September issue is already on the press, ami I can not alter that to includ'* a reply to Senator Penrose, but in the October issue I shall deal with Senator Penrose's use of the Standard Oil funds, and also with Mr. Roosevelt's relations with the Standard Oil Com pany and their agents. I shall, moreover, not make any statements that are not substantiated by documentary evidence. Aone of the Interesting Documents Produced It is a notable fact that Senator Penrose coniines his statements to allegations unsupported by legal proof. It is also worthy of note that Mr. Archbold does not produce any of the interesting documents that lie has in his possession to establish the truth of his utterances. He quotes Mr. Bliss, who is no longer there to question the ac curacy of his statement, bitt he does not produce any letters to or from Mr. Bliss, to or from Senator Penrose, to or from Mr. Babcock, or to or from Mr. Roosevelt. Mr. Archbold s word needs documentary support. That fact has been proven heretofore, and Mr. Archbold has already been con sented by the evidence of his own letters and those of his agents and confederates in political life and public plunder. As a matter of fact, various Republican campaign committees solicited Standard Oil money and accepted Standard Oil money and < inployed Standard Oil money in the campaign of 19(14. and various Democrats received Standard Oil money then and later. Mr. Archbold has told part of the truth, but not all of it. Let h’lii tell all of it and produce the interesting documents that encumber his files. Roosevelt, Too, Should Open Up Mr. Roosevelt, too. should tell of the visits of Mr. Rogers and Mr. Archbold to him in Washington, of Mr. Sibley’s activity in bringing about these meetings of the “perfect understanding" that existed ami various other matters of interest and importance to the nation. All of these things will appear in due time, and Mr. Roosevelt might as well relate them now. Xll must he said of Mr. Roosevelt, however, that although he re ceived the financial and political support o/ the Standard Oil Com pany, he repudiated that institution after he was elected. tn the same manner Mr Wilson received the financial and polit ical support of Senator Smith, of New Jersey, and repudiated him a Iter election. Mr Roosevelt can boast of a belated honesty, so why not be com pletcly frank with the public and tell them the whole truth'.’ Why should not Senator I’enrose and Mr Archbold and Mr Roosevelt and I Mr Sib|e\ all tell the w hole truth, particularly when they can be so j confidently assured that if they do not.

UNKISSED MAN SAYS LAW SHOULD STOP PRACTICE OF HABIT NORRISTOWN, PA., Aug 26—John J Gallagher, the 44-year-old man arrested here who boasted that he had never been kissed, even by his wife, who charged him with assault and bettery, is in grave dan ger of losing his record. Gallagher at his hearing asserted that he had never kissed his wife and that his ideas of osculation were such that he regarded it of the most vulgar of praptices. Despite his aversion, it has not deterred the feeling of many of the more adventurous /girls, and It would not be surprising to hear of Gallagher’s being taken from his home by some of the girls who resent the idea of a man in their midst who is ruthless enough to claim that such an unfeeling person can exist among them. Gallagher confirmed his opinions on the subject today when he said that he was not a woman hater, a’nd that he could get along with any one He said: "I'd go to the end of the world to help a'friend, hut I would not kiss any woman, for t do not think ft's clean. It's a filthy habit and it ought to be prevented by law. "Why. my wife and I always got along until she made up her mind that she ought to be kissed, and when she got that idea I knew she wanted to boss When we talked it over we came to a clinch. She bit my finger, and then 1 had to hand her one. I won't bother her again and 1 will go back home to live if she only cuts out this idea about being kissed."
