STATEMENT OF The FACTS
lBY TELEGRAPH THE TRIBUNEl
WASHINGTON, Oct. % Governor Mccormick
who, during the last campaign was secretary of the
National Republican Committee, says that grave in
Justice Is done by the recent publications, accusing
Senator Stanley Matthews of having required the
National Republican Committee to pay enormous
expenses for his own entertainment, and that Of
members Of his family, while he was acting as one
Of the Republican counsel before the Electoral
Commission.
After the law creating the commission had been
passed by Congress, the National Republican Com
mittee invited Mr. Eyarts, Mr.. Matthews, and others
10 act its counsel As the funds Of the committee
were low, each of the gentlemen so invited was
Informed that no fees could be paid, but that the
expenses of their entertainment would be provided
for. In accordance with this understanding, Cover
nor Mccormick went TO Wormey's Hotel and en-
gagged quarters for all the gentlemen who were to
act as counsel. He also instructed Mr.. Wormley to
furnish them with carriages TO take of their
families and friends and to treat them in every way
with the utmost iberality as they were the guests
Of the National Committees When Mr Stanley Mat
Ihews first arrived in Washington he went to an
other hotel, and, hearing of this, Governor McCOr-
mick called upon him, and took him to Wormley's,
where he remained, with portion of his family,
during the time that the Electoral Commission was
il session. and a few days after.
When about TO leave the hotel, Mr.. Matthews
called for his bill and informed that its pay
ment already provided for by the National Com
mittee. In bidding Governor Mccormick goodbye.
he also referred to this matter and was assured he
was expected to pay part of his expenses during
the time he was IN Washington. When the bills
were presented TO Mr.. Chandler, the Chairman Of
the Republican Committee he seems 10 have Thought
that the expenses Of counsel ought to on the

vote was completed, instead of continuing
