KNOX DENIES PRESS RUMORS
Secretary of War's Visit to Havana
Said to Be to Inspect the Wreck
of Maine to See How Work on
Raising It Is Progressing.
Washington, July 20. President Taf t
who came out last fall with a stronc
statement denying reports that tin
American government was looking lo
the establishment of a protectorate or
some other form of control in Panama
nlso announces to Cuba and the world
that this government has no designs
at nil on Cuba.
This was made in denial of reports
that the approaching visit to Havana
of Secretary of War Stlmson, General
Wood, chief of staff of the army:
Judge Advocate General Crowder and
General Edwards, chief of the Insular
bureau, was being made for political
purposes looking to another interven
tion In the Island on account of an al
leged threatening situation growing
out of the approaching presidential
campnlgn. Secretary Knox, after dis
cussing the subject with tho president,
was directed to cable a statement to
Minister Jackson at Havana to bo
made public thero In order to set nt
rest the suspicions of tho Cuban peo
ple. It was said the visit of tho officials
Is being made merely to view the re
mains of the old battleship Maine, now
being raised In Havana harbor.
Here Is the messago in part sent by
Secretary Knox to the American lega
tion In Havana:
"Tho department of stato having
been Informed that effort Is being
made In certain quarters In Cuba to
exploit the visit to Cuba of tho secre
tary' of war, accompanied by certain
officers of this department, and mis
represent the fact of this visit by giv
Ing It a false color of political signifi
cance, the legation of tho United
States of America is instructed to
make public the present official state
ment In order to put nn end once for
all to unwarranted political innuendo
In respect to this visit.
"Official duties concerning matters
connected with tho Panama canal have
caused tbo secretary of war, accom
panled by the chief of staff and Gen
eral Crowder, Judgo advocate general
of the army, to make a visit of Inspe:
tlon to the canal zone.
'The work of raising tho Maine.
which has been carried on by nrmy en
gineers, was something which the sec
retary of war naturally desired to In
spect, and It was deemed, moreover,
convenient that the secretary of war
and his party should, in returning from
Panama, take advantage of the occa
slon to pay a friendly visit to tho re
public of Cuba, the best interests of
which the United States has so deeply
at heart, and to exchange courtesies
with the Cuban government. The gov
ernment of tho United States has
thought It not worth while to deny the
falso stories of possible intervention
which have been circulated In certain
sections by tho press, tho fact being
that no such question has been the
subject of consideration by that gov
eminent."
FRAUDS IN NAVY STOREHOUSE,
Mare Island Loses Thousands
Wholesale Thefts.
by
San Francisco, July 20. It has leaked
out that extensive frauds have been
prepetrated in the naval storehouse nt
Mare island which will run up into
thousands of dollars. Stores have been
stolen by wholesale through collusion
between employees in tho storehouses
and merchants in Vnilejo. So cleverly
has this been carried on that only re
cently hns there been any suspicion
that all was not right.
The fact which brought matters to
u head was the looting of an entire
schooner cargo of lumber which was
entered here nnd then spirited away.
It Is said that the revelations will
bring exposure to several prominent
merchants of Vallojo and that prnctl
cnlly all of tho officers and privates in
tho government storehouse are involv
ed. BIG TELEPHONE MERGER.

CALLS IT A TRUST
iongressman Madison Says
Thomas Controls Sugar.
ALREADY OWN BIG PLANTS.
Kansas Representative Grills Head of
American Refining Company, Who
Denies That a Combination to
Stifle Competition Exists.
New York, July 20. A member of
the house committee that Is looking
into the affairs of the American Sugar
Refining company gave Washington B.
Thomas, chairman of the board of di
rectors, an opinion that tho trust has
at hand the machinery nnd resources
to grow in power until its control
should be absolute and expressed his
opinion of the tremendous responsibil
ity that rests on the government In
fixing the relations between tho com
pany nnd the people. It is to make
recommendations to congress on the
Sherman antitrust law that the com
mittee was appointed. .
Mr. Thomas couldn't suggest any
way In which the deleterious use of
this powpr could bo averted. He said
that whether it would be harmful or
not depended largely upon the charac
ter of the men In whose hands such
control rested.
It was when Representative Madi
son of Kansas had brought out that
the American was reducing its sugar
Interests. Mr. Madison referred to the
suit pending In New Jersey In which
the National Sugar company is con
tending against tho vnlldlty of Its com
mon stock. If tho company wins and
the common Is thrown out the Amer
ican's holding of 51 per cent of tho pre
ferred will bo a valuable possession.
"If you win that suit," said Mr. Mad
ison, "nnd It looks as if you will oh,
that $10,000,000 issue was a steal," he
put In when tho witness was disposed
to doubt tho certain result "It means
that you will control the National.
Now you already control 42 per cent
of the sugar business of tho country
by your own figures. Tho National
has 10 per cent more. The western
company is owned by your company
nnd two men, Adolph and John Spreck-
cls, in California. You're going to be
in absolute control of the sugar busi
ness of this country. The National
produces 2,000,000 barrels annually.
the American nearly 0,000,000, and
what chance in tho fight have the oth
ers? Although I don't believe any gf
you are fighting.
There's the Arbuckle with 750,000
barrels standing alone, the McCnnn
with COO.OOO, the Federal with 000.000
and the Warner with 450,000.
It's a wonderful economic proposi
tion, and how do you Intend to handle
it with tho responsibility that rests
upon you?"
Mr. Thomas didn't know when the
National's suit would be finished, and
ho didn't seo that getting the control of
thnt concern was a certainty. He add
ed that competition was increasing:
that more refineries were being built.
Mr. Thomas hadn't been sure on the
definition of a trust, but ho had been
certain that his company was not a
monopoly. But Mr. Madison pointed
out the success of tho company, how It
had never Issued a mortgage and had
even been able to pay extra dividends.
Now, as ho understood it, tho policy
was to pay back into tho company
anything nbovo the required amount
of dividends.
