DENIES DICK TO DICK LETTER |Secretary Fisher Says He Hasn't Got It—Will Search Taft's Files. BY M. F. ABBOTT. WASHINGTON, July 10.—In the official Gepartment is a letter to Richard A. Ballinger 21, 1910, and signed by R. S. Ryan. The letter encloses another letter from “backers” of Ryan. With the letter is a postscript written on another piece of paper but fastened to the two letters, which says | “bre sent for me and asked me who it was | represented. | told him, according to our agreement, that | represented myself, but that didn’t seem to satisfy him.

Ryan has long been known in Washington and Seattle the Morgan-Guggenbeim Alaska “man.” On May 15, 1910, eix days before the “Charlie Taft" postscript was written, the Ballinger-Pinchot investigation had been thrown into the ditch by the testimony of Frederick M. Kerby and the production of confidential letters from George W. Perkins of J. P.
