HEARST DENIES
AGITAING WAR
English Papers Roast Him and
He Makes Answer-Willie
Out of Politics.
By Cable to The Dally gateway.
New York, Nov. 2—W. K. Hearst I
has wired the London Times a long]
reply denying that he or his papers]
are in any way responsible for the late i
Spanish-American war, or that he was j
endeavoring to cause war between the
United States and Japan.
The cable to the Times was called]
forth by the roasts that the Knglish |
papers have been giving Hearst for]
some time past, asserting that he, |
through his yellow journals had j
caused the war between Spain and the j
United States, and that for the past
few months he was endeavoring to
bring about a war between the
United States and Japan. These i
assertions Hearst emphatically denies,
stating that hi> papers simply printed]
the news in all its details.
Mr. Hearst also says in his commu
nication to the Times that he is
absolutely and forever out of politics. (
