| AS + MORAN CALLE TR SIETHNG| NENT of Banker’s Wrath From MacVeagh. HARRIMAN TELEPHONED. Wanted $50,000 More “After Visit to White House” and Got It. ‘WAGHENGTON, Oct. 7.—A straight fs- mié of veracity was raised to-day before the Clapp Senatorial Committee invest!- gating campaiga contributions regarding the story that J. Pierpont Morgan was asked for more money dy President ‘Roosevelt in 194, and called Roosevelt @ “Diank-biank maniac,” or some other complimentary name. The whole affeir was “put up” to Wayne MacVeagh, who has previously daniod he was the source of the tale. Morgan said it “wes made out of whole cloth.” Charles Edward Ruseell, Gocialist can- @idate for Governor of New York, told the committee to-day that he was told the story by Judson C. Welliver, a re- porter for Hampton's Magazine and (he Munsey publications. Welliver immedi. ately demanded to be sworn. Ho insisted that the dale was substantially correct, and that he got !t all from MacVeagh. ‘Welliver said the only substantial dif- ference between his story and Russell's was that Russell said the Morgan con- versation Was with Kuosevelt, while, ne, ‘Welliver, understood from MacVeagh that Morgan was talking to Harriman at Washington. Louis Hamerling, formerly Standard Ol! agent, was the first witness called to- day. Mr. Hamerling, according to @ charge made by Senator Dixon, “bought up wholesale" newspaper space in fot. eign journals to boort President Tait. Mr. Hammerling is now president of the American Association of Foreign jews} Perit Chass asked the witness if be had secured Advertising from can- @idates in the pre-conyention campaign, Clapp explaining that the committee could not delve into present post-con- vention fights. “Mr. Roosevelt's manager advertised fm the foreign newspapers before the eampaign,” said Hammerling. “He pa'd 5,600 for space. The ‘ads’ were for Gelegates—to vote for Roosevelt dele- grater.” Col. John J. Hannan, eecretary to Senator La Follette, followed on the stand with @ statement of La Follette'’s | »/,, pre-convention receipts and expenses. ‘Total receipts were 3,05 and expenses waa. GRANE FURNISHED 626,604 OF LA POLLETTE’S $63,965. To Le Follette's fund Gifford Pinchot ave $10,000, Amos Pinchot $10,000, Rep- resentative Kent of California $10,000, Charles R. Crane of Chicago $23,600; Al- i L. Baker $2,000, William Flinn, Rudolph Spreckels $3,000 and Mrs. Glendower Evans $276. Medill McCor- mick Joaned La Follette $1,000 and Sen- ator Gronna 00. La Follette spent $1,000 himeelf. La Follette’s expenses were $10,017 fer the Waghington headquarters, $10,450 for the Chicago headquarters, $1,061 for tele @graph and telephone, $1,558 at the Chi- @ago convention and $1,200 for campaign el. Hannan said Charles R. Crane had given $3,184 additional to the Chicago headquarters of La Follette, making Crane's total contribution to La Fol- lette’s cause $3,004 Hannan denied that Crane gave La Foljette $70,000, 1 as- eerte’d by Treasurer Hooker of the Pro- Gressive party. * Charlies R. Crane followed Hannan on the witness stand. He said he gave $%,004.00'to La Follette's campaign. “Is that all you gave directly or in- directly?” @ “Tes, air.” “How much 41 you sive to Gev, Wilson?" “Ten thousand,” sald Crane, “in two eontributiens—one on Maroh % and an- other Apell 2." mot & business interest.” Charles Edward Russell, Socialist Gu- bernatorial candidate in New York, war next sworn. His attention was called to J. P. Morgan's repudiation of Rus- sell's alleged statement regarding Roose- velt's solicitation of $100,000 from Morgan in 1904 and.that Morgan over the tele- Phone called Roosevelt @ blanked mantac.”’ “That article in the New York Timos is @ report, very much embellished, in- accurate in several particulars, of a speech I gmaide previously,” said Rus- nell. WELLIVER GOT THE STORY FROM MACVEAGH. The published report said Wayne MacVeagh, former Attorney-General, was & witness to the conversation, Mr. Russell said the story came to him in 1910 while he was an editor of Hampton's Magazine from a writer who told him he had the story from “blankety- | Mr. MacVeagh. After the committee insisted on knowing the name of the writer Mr. Ruswell said he was Judson C. Welliver. Mr. Russell said he had never made a charge that Col. Roosevelt had de- manded funds of Mr. Morgan. “It might have been Mr. Cortelyou or Mr. Bliss who was said to have talked to Mr. Morgan on the tele- one,” he declared Mr. Welliver, working at the repor- ters table, was called to the stand and said Mr. MacVeagh had told him of being in Mr. Morgan's private office in October, 1904, that Mr. Morgan had been called to the telephone and was informed EB. H. Harriman wished to speak to him. Welllver testified Mr. MacVeagh told him that when Mr, Morgan returned from the telephone e maid: “What do you suppose that man tn the White House wants? Tt seems that Harriman has pone off down there to} ‘Washington and dined with him and now he comes back and says that the President wanta him to raise more cam- paign funds, He has given $50,000 and Row he wants me to give $50,000," Mr. MacVeagh, according to the wit- ness, told him that Mr. Morgan wrote & check for $90.00, which he sent to Mr. Harriman's office. Welliver said he could not recall whether the word “maniac” ¢ Mr. Morgan's reference to President Roosevelt. “You are sure the name of Mr. Har- an was given as that of the man who asked to have the money raised?’ asked Senator Pomerene. “Yea, I am sure of that,” salt Welliver. Ogden L. Mills, Treasurer of the New York City Republican County Commit- tee, submitted a statement of money spent in the March primaries for the Taft Committee in that city. He said $1,500 was paid to the Burns Detective Agency to prevent fraud. The total re- celpts of his committee were $5,585. The Eastern branch of the Taft League had an auvillary committee, of which Tit- othy L. Woodruff was head. This com- mittee, Mr. Mills said, raised about 000, “The money I raised,” said Mr. Mille, “In @ personal capacity was turned over to that committes.”” “How much did you raise?’ asked Chairman Clapp. “T raised $7,206." $23,000 FOR TAFT IN NEW YORK PRIMARIES, ‘Mr. Mille said he knew of no other ‘Taft primary expenditures in New York than those included in his rough esti- mate of $23,000 or $24,000. Mr. Clapp drew from the witness that his statement of expenditures could not cover money that migpt have been faised in New York and sent to other States to assist Taft campaigners, Mr. Mills asked permission to refute H. Hooket votes had been it for Roosevelt in the New York primary that had not been counted, “There is no truth in Hooker's chayges,” waid the witness. “The ¢ieo- tion was one of the cleanest ever had. It was reported $100 bribes being offered to Ro sert to Taft. T had tectives that Louls Fredell, a Taft oap- tain, had been offered money by Roose- velt men. In six election districts in the Twelfth Congreesional District of New York, Mr. Mills sald, there were irregularities whith suggested fraud. ~ “One man reported voting was having hie leg amputated on election day,” said Mills, “With thirty-nine voters in onc district, forty men voted, none for Taft. In the Eighth Assembly District 106 votes were cast In alphabetical sequence, from A to % Immediately after the election the leader, Fredell,.was appoint- ed Superintendent of Markets by City Comptroller Prendergast, @ prominent Roosevelt worker.” “Those idenis?” gentlemen of high 1 a ire to sa; said Mills, Mr, Mills said he heard that Samuel Ironowits received $600 from William Halpin in the Sixth Assembly District. ‘This item, he said, did not appear in the Progressives’ statement. “On this ratio half of the Roosevelt voters in New York would have been accounted for as watchers at @ a day each,” Mills declared. ‘Mr, Mills sala he got his information from Samuel 8. Koentg. “You believe there was corruption?” asked Pomerenc, “Yes,” “Did you report the situation to the ‘Mr. Crane's attention was called to] District-Attorney?* Hooker's testimony that he, Crane, told Hooker t he had given $70,000 each te the LaFollette and Wilson campaigns. “I never had such @ conversation,” | y, Crane. “S. Crane made the following state- ment: ; WAS WILLING TO BACK BOTH PROGRESSIVES. “My contribution to the Wilson fund was made after it had become apparent tha’ LaFollette probably could not be nominated. I desired to see a progres- sive nominated and elected and could / very well support both Wileon and LaFollette, as both men are progres- sives., That I was contributing to both funds was known to the managers of the two campaigns. “A word on another matter, During the primary campaign, I was said to be the head of the so-called ‘bath-tub .’ Neither I nor any member of amy own or ever have owned or bonds of that organtzation, or of any of the so-called trusts.” Mr, Crane eid he gave about 5,000 @ month to La Follette. “I was willing to give as much to each candidate,” said the witness. “Hooker was around to get money for Bis progressive canmiidate. He thought he might as well come in.” Millionaire Crane gave no money to the Bull Moose fund, “Would you have been subjected to this erjiclsm by Col. Roosevelt if you had contributed to three campaigns instead of iwot’ asked Senator Pomerene. “Lomight have been accused of Monopoly,” answered Crane, laughing. “Whatever interest I bad was personal FOR STRENGTH—FR.
