II understand you to say, that he

time when he had come down to

him to- raise two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars for the republican
presidential campaign which was
then on. . Y I
It appears from the conversation
repeated to the president that Mr..
Sherman had gone to Mr.. Hartman
to ask him for contribution for the
campaign. The president says that
Hartman also (more than once, ..e
thinks) urged him to promise to
make Mr.. Depew ambassador because
this would help Gov. odell by pla-
eating certain big financial interests.
The president said he informed Mr..
Hartman tat he did not believe it
would be possible to appoint Mr..
3DepeW and furthermore expressed his
surprise at his (Harriman,sJ saying
That the men representing the big
financial interests wished the an
pointment made, inasmuch as a num-
Der of them had written asking that
the place be given to Mr.. Hyde. Mr..
Hartman, on learning Mr.. Hyde was
q candidate hastily said that he did
not wish to be understood as antag-
onizing him, and would be quite will
ing to support him. The president
says, that although he understood
that he (Harriman) still preferred
Mr.. Depew, he left strong impress
sion that he would be almost as wen
satisfied with Hyde. ts.,
Some correspondence is given be-
tween the president and Mr.. Harri-
man from which it appears that on
October 10, the president said to Mr..
Hartman that in view Of the trouble
over the state ticket in New York he
would like to have a few words with
him. Later on October ii, Is a let
ter to Mr.. Hartman Id which the
president says that a suggestion has
come to him In roundabout way
that Mr.. Hartman did not think It
wise toscone insthe closing weeks 81
the campaign.
The president told Mr.. Hartman
If ne thought there was any danger
Of his visit causing trouble to give
1t up. Here the president in his let
ter to Mr.. Sherman says:
..You will see that this letter is
absolutely incompatible with any
theory that was asking Mr.. Harri-
man to come down to see me in my
own interest. ''s4S 3s
The president encloses another let
ter from Mr.. Hartman iii his com.
munication to Mr.. Sherman which he
says shows that Hartman did not
have in his mind ..any idea Of my
asking him to collect money. z
Then follows some correspondence
between Mr.. Hartman and the presi-
dent touching among other things on
the question Of railroad matters and
what the president might have to
say to congress on the subject Of
the interstate commerce commission.
The president said he was unable to:
agree with Mr.. Harriman's views on
tue matter and left his message is

Wolf in italian Town.

It is not often that European eyes
witness the spectacle of a wolf trot-
ting leisurely through the streets in
broad daylight, and with little appar-
ent concern. Such an incident hap
pened recently in the Italian town Of
Annezzano. The wolf went smiling
first in the direction of one house and
then of another as he went along.
Passing by the hospital, an attendant
of sporting instincts saw the game,
and, rushing for a gun, gave chase.
Before long he got chance for shot,
which hit the wolf, and following this
up with another, the beast was slain.
Its presence in the town is accounted
for by the theory that the beast had
been hunting over night away from
his haunts, and after eating to safety
and sleeping through the night, was
making his way back to his lair.
