Funny Disclosure Relating to Little
Morton Boom.
NEW YORK, n. Z, May 15-There was
lively Mckinley mass-meeting last even
ing in West Sixtieth street, where large
mum ber of the Ohio mans friends met to
sound his praises. The meeting was
long one, but few men left the hall before
its close, and the one ~oman present also
remained until the finish. Z. G. Camp
bell acted as presiding officer and deliv-
cred speech that time and again stirred
up much enthusiasm for Mckinley. But
the most interesting feature of the even
ing's programme was in the form of CORE
spondence bearing the signature of c. w.
Hackett, chairman of the Republican
State Committee. Campbell referred to
the fact that Platt had charged that Nc
Kinley had subsidized the press, and then
proceeded to read the correspondence
mentioned. The first document produced
was a copy of the Searchlight, paper
published by and for negroes at Austin,
Tex. 1t contained a page and half of
Morton matter and picture of the Gov
ernor as well. The second document was
letter to the editor of the Searchlight
signed by Chairman Hackett, saying that
I'VE should be pleased to send you cuts
and some articles on the candidacy of the
Governor, which we would be willing to
pay for at liberal rates.
+ The third document was bill from the
Searchlight for $3.50 for the column for five
weeks, and the fourth was a letter from
Hackett denying that he had ever offered
