NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-The Sun says:
Submitted herewith is the authoritative
statement Of the expenses Of this cam
paign up to date. 1t is not hearsay evi.
dence, it comes from the highest
sources. In the first place. the nOnlna-
ton of President Harrison at Minneap-
oils cost 100000. This money was used
in paying the expenses OF delegations
"a little short expenses when they got
on the ground" Since then the Repub-
licans have raised $2,500,000, OF which
President Harrison and cabinet con-
tributed 1920, 600. Stephen b. Elkins
and John WGnGmaker are not included,
The expenses of the Democrats in the
national fight date from Feb. % last,
when at Albany the anti-SnaD move
ment was inaugurated. EX-Mayor
William Il. Grace was at the head of
that movement, and demonstrated that
he Was no mean money-getter. Head
quarters were opened in New York,
attached to which was a big literary
bureau, all in the interest Of Mr.. CleVe-
lands nomination. The Syracuse con-
ventiOn was an expensive affair. Free
railroad tickets were provided. but
prior to that the expenses Of the dele
gates TO that convention had to be met.
The charge OF the anti snappers in Chi
cago also cos something, and, all told,
the anti-snap cost 100000.
The nomination of Mr. Cleveland at
Chicago cost about $500, 000. This state
ment is made On the authority Of mem
Der of the national Democratic commit
too Tim nnlOpnrotS baVa haau natr-
PEELED to face the same increased eX-
penSeS in the different states that their
Republican adYerSarieS have. The eX-
penoes at national headquarters have
been larger prop0rtionately than at Mr..
Carriers shop. The Democratic commit
tee has compelled each week to face a
salary list two yards long. EX-President
Cleveland and the members of his cab
met have contributed $4,000. This dot S
not include the money raised by Mr..
Whitney IN New York. Chicago. Phila-
delphia, Cleveland and Boston.
The distribution Of funds from the
headquarters in the last two days will
perhaps demonstrate clearly more than
anything else just where the fight is.
There may be one or two errors in the
Republican schedule. for there are one
Or t1'o statements which could not be
confirmed. but it is approximately cor
rect. The Republican schedule is as
follows New York, S600,0C0; New York
city, $4,000: Indiana. $25O,00O; Con-
necticur, 100000; Alabama, 100000;
