President Xs Disturbed by Combination
Against Kim.
Washington, April 4.—It was said on
authority at the White House today
that there is ample evidence at hand for
the claim that the President holds that
there is a movement afoot to defeat his
policies in the next congress and in the
national convention.
It is declared that the Hearst-Harri-
man-Rockefeller combination has already
a fund of >5.000.000 with which to carry
on its campaign in opposition to the’
President. It was further said they are
gathering up the loose ends, but the
movement will flatten out. It is appar-
ent ir Ohio and Pennsylvania; in fact, it
extends across the entire continent. The
scheme was thoroughly divulged at a
recent dinner and reached the White
House through a friend of the Presi-
dent. The scheme of the people behind
the movement is to buy newspapers, pub-
lic men and others who may assist the
opponents of the President in their work.
It was also stated authoritatively at
the White House today that part of the
plan to encompass the defeat of the
President's policy is the election of state
delegations to the national convention
from those states known to favor the
President, these delegates to be instruct-
ed for President Roosevelt, notwith-
standing the knowledge in advance that
the President would not be a candidate
for renomination. Then, according to
the statement made, upon the President
declining to be a candidate for renomi-
nation, as he has said he would decline,
the delegates are to consider themselves
free and are to be switched over to some
one else for President and the policies
for which he is standing.
The secret of the alleged combination,
it was stated at the White House, first
leaked out at a dinner in this city at-
tended by a number of anti-Roosevelt
Republicans a weeks ago. A friend
of President Roosevelt who was present
at the dinner carried the news to the
White House.

The President is quite content to ac-
cept the gage of battle offered by Har-
rimn and the other trust magnates. It
is out of the question now for him and
Harriman ever to resume friendly rela-
tions. The publication of Harriman's

Another Kick Man's Conspiracy Against
the President,
Chicago, April 4.—A dispatch to the
Trih in - from Washington sayF: ^
“The big interests of the country have
inaugurated a movement to discredit
President Roosevelt, prevent the achieve-
ment of liis railroad and other reform
policies, and to block the nomination by
the Republican party of Secretary Taft
or any other Roosevelt man. This move-
ment is now under way in Pennsylva-
nia. Ohio and California.
This is the information President
Roosevelt has received from a source in
which he places reliance. The men be-
hind this movement are E. H. Harriman.
J. Pierpont Morgan, the Rockefellers
and other Standard Oil interests, the to-
bacco trusts and certain other capital-
istic combinations which have suffered
from the President's activity.
The movement is much like what is
known as the ''rich men's conspiracy” of
1904, when at a meeting Harriman, so
the- President has been informed, sol-
emnly expressed his conviction that he

New York. April 4.—E. 11 Harriman
declined to talk with newspaper report-
ers yesterday about the statement that
he had been working for his own polf-
cal advancement in seeking to have
Senator Depew appointed ambassador to
France. Mr. Harriman’s attention was
called to a dispatch from Washington
on that subject, but he could not be
induced to talk about it.
Mr Harriman was asked if he had
anything to add to his former statement
and he replied:
“Don’t you think I’ve said enough?
"Dcesn't it look as though you had a
big fight on your hands? was asked.
“I don't think so. I’ve got nothing
else to do now except to attend to my
business."
“Should your reply to the President
bring out another statement from him.
would you make an additional state-
ment? was asked.
That would deped on what the Presi-
dent's rejoinder was, but please don't
press me to say any more about it," he
replied.*

Washington, D. C., April 4.— (Special.)
President Roosevelt is using the Harri-
man incident for all It is worth as politi-
cal thunder. Handouts” from the White
House are numerous, and the. official
typewriters are working overtime.
The wise ones have said all along that
Mr. Roosevelt is a master politiciane
and they are now finding plentiful illus-
tration of his craft.
Upon the publication of the Harriman-
Webster letter he gave out so much of
the original correspondence as would
help his"cane, and freely made insinua-
tions that covet t influcnces are behind
the assault. Yesterday he charged that
Harriman's motive was the desire to be

could not possibly have been any other

eration of having Depew appointed as
