MANFULLY MEETS ACCUSERS Republican Nominee Fully An swers Eitier Political Attack. GIVES DETAILED STATEMENT Ready to Redeem All Stock at Price Paid From Any Purchaser Who In vested Because of His Connection. John K. Tener, RenulillcRn nominee for governor, in a frank and manly statement, has met the attacks of his political opponents and given a com plete answer to every Insinuation that has been made In the Journalistic as sault upon his character. He has demonstrated that his con nections with the companies in ques tion have been straightforward and honorable in every way. He has told of his exact relations with the Utilities enterprise, which he believed when he became Identified with It it was a feasible project, and he holds that Is still a fact, and he has proclaimed that he is ready to pay In full any amounts that may have been paid Into the company for stock, purchased be cause of his connection with the corporation. The attempt to discredit Mr. Tener because of his relations with an in surance company that has also been made an issue In the state campaign was upon the face of It so palpably a political trick that no one took it seri ously. Mr. Tener points out that this com pany has been a success from the stait, and that he Is still interested in It financially. Mr. Tener brands the attacks upon him as unwarranted and malicious, and In view of the rumors that have been put In circulation by a coterie of politicians, to the effect that he is to be arrested, Mr. Tener boldly defiles them to carry out their plot. W. L. Chrisman, who is now presi dent of the National Public I i Ities company, when shown Mr. Tener's statement, said: "It fully cover the situation." Mr. Tener'a statement reads as fol lows: Statement of Fact. "Ordinarily I would pay no attention to the falsehoods that have been ut tered by an untruthful newspaper, but it may be that some fair-minded men have been misled by the way facts have been distorted, and for this rea son, and for this reason alone, I de sire to make a short statement which covers my position. "In December of last year ! was vis ited in Washington by William L, Chrisman, Esq., an attorney of Phila delphia, and F. L. Smart, who re quested me to become president of the National Public Utilities Corporation. I had favorably known Mr. Smart for sometime, but not knowing Mr. Chris man made inquiry and learned that he was a lawyer of excellent reputation and with good business cennections. I also leared that other reputable men, (ioneral Kuwcll Thayer, Colonel Will iam Hinder Wilson, Joseph S. Mack, Frederick S. Hchoff, William H. Mar gerum tnd Simeon Merrill, were di rectors. "I wait also Informed that the com pany had been Iw-ornoratei according to law, was propeny organized and could legitimately carry on the biisi nens for which it was intended, which was the building of a railroad from Astoria to a point beyond Seaside In the stale of Oregon. I also made in quiry or those believed to be familiar with the Ideality as to the practicabil ity of the enterprise. Alter this I concluded to accept the presidency and served in that office, and as director, during the first quarter of this year, but as my labors in congress were daily Increasing, because of Important legislation then pending, which requir ed practically all of my time, I re signed from the company.. For some reason or other my resignation was not accepted at the time I tendered It, but I received no salary as president except for the months of January and February, although entitled to the sal ary for March. $"111,000 par value of the stock was sent to mo nnd I immediately y return ed it with a letter stating that I would not accept It as I had not earn ed it and was not entitled to It. A little later $20,000, par value, of the stock was sent to me, which I also re turned for the same reason. A Feasible Project. "I believed the object of this com pany to be legitimate and notwith standing the vicious attacks which have been made against it I am not convinced to the contrary, and today am of the opinion that It could be successfully carried out. Charles N. Dennett, a civil engineer of high re pute In his profession, whom I sent to Oregon on my election to the presi dency, reported favorably upon it and sithln a wc.k passed has reiterated that opinion, and has stated that If eastern capital could not be had to carry the work through local capl nl there could be had to do it. I be lieve that tr.e worst blow the stock holders of this company hnve re reived Is the result of unwarranted nM mailt tons attacks through the columns of this hypocritical newspaper, "I never promoted the National Pub lic Utilities Corporation; was not a participant in its promotion; never sold any of Its stock, or solicited any body to buy any of its stock. My con nection with It was entirely honorable and stiatghtforward, as I have above described. "I am informed that about $.19,000 In cah (not nearly $2. ,000,000 as pub lished) have been paid to the company for stock, and to show that I do not wish to evade any responsibility In the matter, if any man, relying upon my being president, or upon my name being used in connection with this company during the time I was presi dent, presents proof to me that he purchased any of the stock and paid cash to the company I will take the stock from him and give him exactly what he paid for it In cash. "Whatever has been done by this company as respects the taking over of any other or subsidiary companies or enterprises, was before my connec tion with It, ,and with which I had nothing to do, but, I believe, and had the right to believe, from the charac ter of those who were In control, and from my investigation, that all had been properly and legally done, "As to Messrs. Bromley and Haines I never heard of them until be. eame connected with the company and pot until the matter was exploited by yellow journalism did I ever hear any idverse criticism affecting them, A Successful Company, "Concerning my connection with the Security Life and Annuity company, with others I sold my stock some years ago and soon after, at the re quest of the company's president, Mr. W. O. Johnson, of Chicago, I again be came a member of Us board of direc tors and still serve in that capacity. The company Is and always has been eminently successful. "In view of the scurrilous attacks I believe It to be h1 more than just to myself, as an assurance to the people of my business integrity and ability, to say that I am now and have been for twelve years president of the First National Bank of Charlerol, Pennsyl vania; I am now and for several years have been secretary and treasurer of the Charlerol Savings and Trust oom pany, and I have several other busi ness connections all prosperous all well managed, and all have the con fidence of every one connected or hav ing to do with them, "I know that certain Interests are striving to induce some one to be the 'tool' to issue (for political effect) a warrant for my arrest. For the proper condemnation of such conduct I con fidently appeal to the sense of fair play of the electors of Pennsylvania and challenge my detractors to pro ceed. I court any judicial investiga tion, for I am ready to meet any and all accusers in a court of justice in stead of trying to answer hidden foes who are straining evory point to ac complish, for political purposes, my business and political ruin." O'Connell'i Big Head. Thackeray was six feet two Inches tn height, nnd Sir II. W.

SUSPECTS ARE HELD FOR EXTRADITION Supposed Dynamiters Had $12, 000 in Launch w!)sn Arrested. Washington, Nov. 1. Marlon Letch er, American consul at Aeapuleo, Mex ico, sent a report to the state depig ment on the arrest or the five passen gers of the gasoline launch which re cently put Into that port for fuel. They are held as suspects In the recent dynamiting of the Los Angeles Times Dulldlng. The sum of $12,000, Consul Letcher i-nld. was found in the launch. Th five men were Swan Kngdehe. Adolph Adolphson. Pnn Archer, Ohl Carlson nnd Harry Ham. The latter, the con sul said, Is supposed to be Wilson B. Evans, who Is said In be wanted bv the Ixs Angeles police in connection with the recent robbery of the Mer chants and Farmers' bank of Los An peles. The Information was forwarded to Coventor Gillett of Callforn'a. If the five men detained at Aripulrn were Implicated In the Los Angeles Times case, their extradition will probably be requented. PUT ON CIVIL SERVICE LIST President Favors Taking Second and Third Class Postmasters Out of Politics. Washington, Nov. 1. It was learned definitely that the president will rec ommend In his coming message to con gress that second and third class post masters be covered in the civil service list. Mr. Taft Intimated some time ago that he would take such action. He Is In favor of taking all collectors of cus toms and internal revenue out of poll tics and putting them under the pro tection of the civil service. It Is likely, however, that the sec ond and third class postmasters will be the only federal oflicehoHers who will figure In this way In the next message.
