CAMPAIGN COST GOES UP $4,000 Stephenson Spent $111,385 to Secure Toga. HIS ATTORNEY TESTIFIES Declares Senator Signed Checks Whenever a Call Was Made With- eut Asking Questions, but Later Deemed It Necessary to Find Out How the Money Was Spent and Put His Attorney at Work. Milwaukee, Nov. 1.—8o little atten- tion was given by Senator Isaac Ste- pheneon to the amount of money he was spending in his primary campaign for the United States senatorship nom- ination in 1908 that he had to employ an attorney to find out what was spent. H. A. J. Upham so testified before the senatorial investigating committee. Mr. Upham, who acted as the senator's attorney, said he found the total ex- penses to be $111,885, or about $4,000 more than it was previously an- nounced to be. Senator Stephenson already had told that he devoted little time in consid- ering just how his money was being spent, as_he gave out checks and left the details to otherw. | Later, however, the senator deemed it necessary to find out what was done with the money. Mr. Upham testified accounted in a general way, he said, for all but $4,000. | One of the specific charges which the United States senate committee is | son failed to comply with the Wiscon- sin corrupt practices act, which re- quires a detailed accounting of cam- paign expenses. | Mr. Upham admitted that his report technically was not in accordance with the statutes, but it complied with custom, he declared, and even if the law was violated it merely would threaten a fine without affecting the senator’s tenure of office. ————____— Two Plead Guilty te Murder.
